The Space (About this home)
Welcome to Knowl Cottage, where 16th-century character meets 21st-century comfort.
Ideally positioned in the picturesque village of Hartington, this property solves the biggest problem with historic rentals: `The Bathroom Bottleneck.` We offer the rare luxury of three en-suite bedrooms, ensuring total privacy and no morning queues for the shower.
LIVING & RELAXING The heart of the home is the lounge, dominated by a spectacular 16th-century Inglenook fireplace with a log burner—the ultimate spot to warm up after a winter walk in Dovedale.
Entertainment: Smart TV with streaming apps and high-speed WiFi throughout.
Dining: A dedicated dining area for 6, perfect for family meals using local produce from the village stores.
Kitchen: Fully equipped for self-catering, featuring a Nespresso machine (bring your favourite pods!) and modern appliances.
SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS (3 Bedrooms / 3 Bathrooms) Each bedroom features original exposed beams and stone details, paired with hotel-quality linens for a restful sleep.
Bedroom 1 (Master): Double bed with private En-suite shower room.
Bedroom 2: Double bed with private En-suite shower room.
Bedroom 3: Twin room with private En-suite bath and shower over.
(Note: This `All En-Suite` layout is unique for a property of this age and is perfect for three couples or mixed family groups).

The Games Room: Keep the teenagers (and adults!) entertained with a Pool Table, Air Hockey, and Table Football.
Laundry: Access to shared washing and drying facilities.
