A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE A DIVERSIFIED FARM IN THE YORKSHIRE DALES OFFERING AN EXCELLENT SUCCESSFUL TURNKEY HOLIDAY LET BUSINESS AND POTENTIAL TO EXPAND TOURISM AND FARMING.
Brockholes Farm is located in a splendid rural position in the upper Lune Valley, within the Yorkshire Dales National Park and with excellent access to the M6 and the Lake District.
Tebay is a scattered village situated at the head of the Lune Gorge with a primary school, post office and the Cross Keys Inn, a traditional pub dating back to the 16th century. The award winning farm shop can be found at Westmorland motorway services on the M6.
Brockholes Farm
There are six properties in total; four two-storey dwellings set in a terrace and two, detached, single storey properties. All are finished to a good standard with modern kitchens and bathrooms, flagged and wood flooring, double-glazed wooden framed windows and boarded wooden doors.
Facilities
To facilitate the smooth running of the business, the current owners have invested in a range of new outbuildings, useful for storage and laundry.
In addition, there is a new children's play area with swings, slides, rope climbing frame and many more fun activities. As part of their business model, there are smaller paddock areas close to the holiday cottages, which they have used for animal petting. The vendors would be open to selling some of their animals by separate negotiation.
Land
The land extends to approximately 122 acress of pasture, meadow and woodland, which rolls down to the River Lune, predominantly enclosed by drystone walls and livestock fencing.
The majority of the land lies within a ring fence of Brockholes Farm and has good access from the tarmac road, which passes through the land. The land is not entered into any environmental stewardship agreements. The land is currently used for grazing, however does offer good opportunities through environmental stewardship schemes and forestry. In addition, there are fell rights on Tebay Fell.
Outbuildings
A new steel portal framed building with box profile roof and elevations (c.13.30m x 18.92m) was erected in early 2024 (E/15/9A). The building has been designed to accommodate larger animals but could be used for livestock wintering and husbandry. The livestock handling facilities are not included in the sale.
