This beautifully restored 17th-century property is full of character and charm, with its exposed interior stone walls and oak beams. In the cosy lounge, it’s a joy to light the wood burner on a chilly night and settle into this charming space filled with antique furniture and elegant wood panelling. The sweet kitchen has been completely modernised in a white-and-grey cottage style – as you boil the kettle for a cuppa, be sure to absorb those soothing views through the low windows. Another wood burner features in the atmospheric dining room, along with a grand dining table for candlelit dinners. There’s also a second reception room ensuring your group has plenty of space to spread out, while the games room will be popular with children. Outside, a pretty, south-facing garden with a generous lawn and patio area sets the scene for BBQs on warm evenings.
Nearby, the neighbouring villages of Kettlewell, Arncliffe and Grassington (all within 9 miles) are all fantastic options for exploration.
