Soak up the scenery and enjoy the sound of birdsong when you retreat to this Yorkshire haven. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom cottage nestles in gorgeous gardens and beautiful countryside, just 3.5 miles from vibrant Harrogate. Ideal for two couples or a small family, the single-storey hideaway is 2 miles from the picturesque gardens at RHS Garden Harlow Carr and 4.5 miles from Nidderdale and its fantastic walking country.

Climb six stone steps up to the front door or follow the ramp up to the French windows to let yourselves into this former stable. Wander inside to find bright, airy accommodation with a welcoming, modern feel. Head into the generous kitchen/diner to brew a fresh pot of Yorkshire tea to enjoy at the table with a fat rascal from a Harrogate bakery. This room has also been designed to ensure you have all the equipment you need to help you rustle up meals for your party. While away relaxing evenings together in the lounge. Open the French windows in here during the summer months and settle down to watch a film on TV or listen to music as you chat. When you are ready for a good night’s sleep, wander through to either the twin bedroom, or the super-king-size which can also be set up as a twin if discussed in advance. There is a family bathroom where you can enjoy a hot bubble bath after bracing walks. Take in the spring and summer colour out in the mature, lawned garden and decide to dine out here when the weather is warm.

Spend time in Harrogate pottering in the colourful shops, dining out and pampering yourselves at the Turkish baths. Plan a day trip to Bolton Abbey, 20 miles away, to visit the ruins and explore the magnificent estate.

We loved our second stay at Swallows Cottage, its well presented, comfortable and has all the mod cons that you would have at home. Its perfectly located, and a good base to be able to visit Harrogate, Leeds, York, Whitby etc As a bonus, the sunsets we saw out of the windows were spectacular. A lovely cottage, we look forward to our next stay thereRead more. Hide

We stayed for a week in the summer of 2023 and loved it so much, we came back. If we are free next year, we will make sure we stay again. It is a wonderfully quiet, private place and makes you feel at home very quickly. I could not recommend it highly enough. Also, the owners are a wonderfully friendly couple. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, againRead more!! Hide

Enjoyed our stay at this well-equipped comfortable property. The garden is lovely and the bird feeders outside the kitchen are in an ideal place to capture views of goldfinches and woodpeckers. The kitchen and store room were very well equipped and our Roku allowed us to stream while there. We didn't try the Freesat installation. The only downside Read moreis that the carpet is a very pale cream which would show any marks so inside slippers are mandatory for the lounge and bedrooms. Hide

The cottage is a little gem not far from Harrogate. It is beautifully appointed and very well equipped, even down to USB charging points in some of the mains sockets. If you enjoy wild life you will enjoy watching the birds on the bird feeder. In the middle of February we saw a lesser spotted woodpecker, goldfinch, blue tits and in the late eveningRead more a barn owl patrolling the bottom of the field. This cottage will not disappoint. We really enjoyed our stay, hopefully wewill be back later in the yr Hide

By far the best cottage we've stayed in, with lovely hosts too. Beautifully furnished and equipped, a real home from home. Great location in the country, but near a pub doing meals, and with easy access to main roads for getting about. Loved watching the birds, and even saw hares. Would highly recommend Swallows.
