Kirkby Stephen is an idyllic market town in Cumbria. Surrounded by wonderful countryside, this is a delightful place to spend a short break. Infamous for its wonderful walking opportunities, Kirkby Stephen was the first place in Cumbria to be granted 'Walkers are Welcome' status.
From here visitors are well placed to explore the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the Yorkshire Dales National Park. If that's still not enough it's only a short journey to reach the Lake District National Park as well. Parrots have known to be spotted around town and there is a downloadable Kirkby Stephen Trail that offers insights to the culture and heritage of this lovely place. Whether you go with family or a loved one, Last Minute Cottages has a selection of late availability self catering accommodation for your last minute holiday.
