Located within a sprawling estate with an extremely well-kept garden (which you can explore to your heart’s content during your stay), this bijou property is a true delight to stay in. Stay here as a solo traveller or as a couple for a memorable break hiking through spectacular countryside and discovering picturesque villages and traditional pubs. The small-but-perfectly-formed dwelling is in a pretty rural location between two national parks, with the best that Yorkshire has to offer right on your doorstep.

Renovated to an exceptional standard, this sweet Grade-II-listed property marries historical features with modern luxury for an inviting atmosphere. An exposed stone wall on one side, and pretty, original wooden ceiling beams in the bedroom create an atmospheric setting. Step into a cosy kitchen-diner, perfectly arranged to make the most of the space, with the sink tucked away under the stairwell and a small eating area for candlelit meals. On sunny days, take your plates out to the courtyard to soak up views over the formal parterre gardens as you tuck in. The downstairs bathroom features a monsoon shower for a hotel-like washing experience. Upstairs, a welcoming double bedroom with a Juliet balcony creates a comfy sleep spot.

Nearby, wander to the pub 0.5 miles away or take a short drive to a pretty market town like Bedale or Leyburn (4.5 miles and 8.5 miles respectively). Plan day hikes through the popular Dales, trekking through undulating hills and sweeping valleys, or perhaps exploring the scenic moorlands of Nidderdale (19 miles), an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The 14th-century Bolton Castle (14.5 miles) makes a wonderful day trip, while the dog will love the woodland walk to the gushing Aysgarth Falls (15 miles).

We had a lovely stay after an unfortunate change of venue when the one we had booked had an issue. The cottage & surrounding areas were beautiful! The hot tub was nice & a good size. There is only a small water tank so be aware of that when showering you may get cold! Host was absolutely lovely as was the free bread, butter & eggs. Main concern wasRead more the lack of light outside the hot tub. There was one present but it didnt seem to work. Sink is difficult to use. Hide

We wanted a relaxing break and this was ideal. I would have preferred a restaurant or pub close by without having to use the car but overall enjoyed the stay

Located in a beautiful area of Yorkshire. We enjoyed good weather, which makes a big difference if you enjoy walking from the door. Very peaceful and restful site. We drove to N.T. properties and Gorge nearby. Some pubs have closed. We enjoyed a lovely Lamb Shank at the King's Head, in Kettlewell, after walking around the lovely village and church Read moregarden. Hide

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and New Year at the summer house. The perfect way to see in 2023. The hot tub was fab, we recommend the drop and dip service so its ready and up to temperature on your first night - we didnt take advantage of it but would definitely do it on future visits. If you sit still the light will go out and you can gaze at theRead more stars. The accommodation was wonderful and incredibly well laid out, really cosy and comfy bed too. Highly recommended Hide
