With panoramic vistas to enjoy from the garden, you’re invited to soak up the extraordinary splendour of the Yorkshire Dales National Park when staying in this traditional stone cottage. A bucolic haven with views of Penn Hill and Wensleydale on its doorstep, a stay here enables holidays filled with walking, biking and other such outdoor adventures for a long or short stay. Touring is also on the cards, with the lively and characterful towns of Richmond (10.5 miles) and Ripon (23 miles) nearby. Promising beautiful surroundings both inside and out, the property is a splendid place for five guests to call their own, perfectly suited to families.
One room flows into the other in the dynamic, light-filled ground floor of this cottage, a sociable space featuring a well-appointed kitchen, dining room and a wonderful lounge. With soft seating options, an open fire and a TV/DVD, the lounge is yours to unwind in whenever the weather doesn’t lend itself to relaxing outside. The kitchen boasts all the kit and space needed to whip up memorable meals, to be enjoyed in the separate diner with its views over the countryside. When day turns to night, head upstairs to find three delightful bedrooms, all served by a well-equipped family bathroom – a king-size room, a double and a cosy single. Outside you’ll find a spectacular garden in an elevated position with far-reaching views and a patio from which to admire them.
Filled with picturesque charm, Leyburn is 3.5 miles away with local Yorkshire pubs, pleasant tearooms and a weekly Friday market for local produce and arts and crafts. Walk from town on a circular route to Harmby Waterfall (4 miles) to take in the pretty local scenes that surround the area. For those with younger guests, the popular local attraction of Forbidden Corner is a short way away on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales (5 miles).
