This comfortable one-bedroom property is located on a working farm in Nidderdale. Situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this is a great base for keen walkers and cyclists wanting to explore the countryside and is within 4 miles of popular Brimham Rocks.

Inside, the rooms are all on one floor with simple furnishings and neutral tones creating a relaxing atmosphere. After a day exploring the landscape, the open-plan living area is an inviting space and the perfect spot to unwind. Pour yourself a drink, sink into the plump sofa and enjoy your favourite programme on the TV. There’s even underfloor heating to keep things toasty warm on chillier evenings. When it comes to mealtimes, the property is proximal to a pub but if you prefer to eat in, there’s a spacious kitchen with a pretty dining table and a window that offers lovely countryside views. When the day draws to an end, retire to the king-size bedroom. With its comfortable furnishings and soothing tones, you’ll be sure of a good night’s sleep. In the morning, step outside and enjoy coffee in the courtyard or soak up the sun while planning your day’s agenda at the outdoor table.

From the property, enjoy walks through the surrounding moors, hire bikes and explore the countryside, or head to the dramatic rock formations at Brimham Rocks (4 miles). For restaurants, bars and cafes, journey to the spa town of Harrogate (10 miles).

This is a most delightful place. We enjoyed staying here very much. We were able to find our way around quite easily We did miss not being within walking distance of local shop or pub for instance. We welcomed the scones and biscuits which tasted great.

The cottage was lovely and clean, very cosy in the unseasonal weather. It is central to visit a lot of the lovely countryside and attractions in The Dales. Would not hesitate to book again,

Very small, but clean, tidy and well-planned cottage, with good-sized wardrobe in the bedroom. Bed seemed new and was comfortable, and everything worked. However, the only outside space, and the view from all but one small window, was a weedy, uneven, rather scruffy farmyard between the front of the cottage and the farmhouse immediately opposite (sRead moreo not private, either - you wouldn't really want to sit out there using the small patio set provided). Building work is also currently in progress. Hide

The only view of the beautiful surrounding countryside was from the kitchen window, which was disappointing but we enjoyed watching the lambs. The outside sitting area was indeed the car park and slightly scruffy with no views. I would sum up by saying we did enjoy our stay and appreciated the welcome pack. If you were a couple who mainly ate out aRead morend just wanted a base, I think the cottage was ideal. Hide
