Dent is a charming village with a cobbled main street, convenient public car park and a select number of shops, cafes and Inns. Sedbergh is a market town only six miles away with an extensive range of shops, stores, park, recreational facilities, renowned boarding school and educational facilities.

Geslings is located to the east of Dent Village on Deepdale Lane which has access from the cobbled main street by turning off at the George and Dragon Inn and travelling only 500 yards to the field gate where Geslings farmland adjoins Deepdale Lane. At present there is no parking or vehicular road to Geslings Farmhouse so parking in the village and walking to the property will prove most convenient.
