Welcome to LONSDALE HALL High Biggins, LA6 2NP Lonsdale Hall has been beautifully designed to combine classical architectural features with a modern open plan layout for 21st Century living. The emphasis throughout the house has specifically focused on fine proportions, high ceilings and tall sash windows, which on the front elevation provide panoramic views over the Lune Valley and of Ingleborough. The accommodation is arranged over three floors offering flexible and generous living space. Dual aspects give a light and spacious feel throughout the house and the impressive reception rooms provide fantastic space for both entertaining and family living. The interiors have been finished to an exacting standard and much use has been made of locally sourced natural materials including stone floors and stone mullioned windows. High Biggins is a charming hamlet made up of traditional period houses and cottages within walking distance of the ever popular market town of Kirkby Lonsdale which provides good local amenities including restaurants, independent shops, pubs, a post office, churches and a Booths supermarket. The area is renowned for excellent schools including Sedbergh, Giggleswick, Lancaster boys' and girls' Grammar Schools and Queen Elizabeth School in Kirkby Lonsdale itself.
