Salutation Yard is a secluded courtyard of 3 holiday cottages located in Skelton, a traditional Eden Valley village with a friendly pub serving excellent home-made food. There are wonderful doorstep walks and cycling routes and it is an ideal location from which to explore the nearby Lake District.

15 adults, 2 children and several infants can stay if all 3 cottages are rented together and a combination of 2 or all cottages can be chosen to cater for the specific needs of a group of family and friends. The cottages are particularly suitable for multi-generational family groups, with accessible bedrooms and living areas for the less mobile members of your group. They are also ideal for retreats or conferences. The village hall is just 73 metres away and may be hired (according to availability) to provide additional communal space if needed.

The cottages are converted farm buildings that retain much original character combined with contemporary features to provide the perfect base for a comfortable stay.

East Byre welcomes 6 guests in 3 bedrooms with 3 bathrooms. The self-contained ground floor accommodation for 2 adults and an infant is suitable for part-time wheelchair users. The dining table in East Byre can be extended to provide seating for 10 guests.

West Barn has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and is ideal for 5 adults and 2 children. Pets are welcome by arrangement in this cottage.

South Byre sleeps 4 guests in ground floor accommodation that includes 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom.

All the cottages feature free WiFi, a ground floor open plan living/dining/kitchen with cosy inset electric fire, TV, DVD, CD, iPod dock and board games. Each has a well-equipped kitchen area, a washing machine and a shared tumble dryer. All have comfortable bedrooms with duvets, crisp white bed linen and a TV as well as contemporary bathrooms with a supply of fluffy white towels. Outside every cottage there is parking space, a patio table/ chairs and secure storage for outdoor equipment.
