Overview
Located in a quiet corner of Orton, on the Cumbrian edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, Linden Barn was renovated in 2020 and is now a cosy house offering accommodation for up to six guests. Orton was described by Wainwright as one of Westmorland’s loveliest villages and with the stunning views from every window at this property it is easy to see why.
