This traditional two-bedroom cottage set in the pretty village of West Burton is an ideal retreat for a small family plus two hounds seeking countryside walks right from the doorstep. The cottage boasts tranquil views, homely comforts, and is within walking distance of a friendly local pub and a beautiful local waterfall.

Hang coats in the utility room then step into the open-plan living area. Brilliant white walls, a lovely sash window, and pleasant decor make this an inviting space. After a day of activity, cosy up on the sofa with a film on the TV and let Fido stretch out in front of the crackling wood burner. The kitchen is equipped with high-end appliances and overlooks the lounge so you can rustle up dinner and still be part of the conversation. After a hearty meal served at the dining table, head upstairs to the first floor where the two double bedrooms await, served by a well-appointed shower room. Simple interiors, tranquil views and plenty of natural light create a soothing atmosphere in both rooms, ensuring a good night’s sleep. In the morning, step outside and enjoy breakfast at the garden table. It’s also a good spot for an evening drink or to simply sit and bask in the sun.

West Burton is in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales and is one of Wensleydale’s prettiest villages with a waterfall, village green and pub. Enjoy wild swimming at the waterfall and countryside walks straight from the door. The traditional market towns of Hawes and Leyburn are both within 10 miles and offer a good selection of local shops, inns and restaurants.

We appreciated the good quality cutlery, crockery and pans. The appliances all worked well. The dog treats and bowls etc were welcome. The house was in a good position in the village. Overall, the weather was kind and we enjoyed our week.

Very well equipped cottage in a beautiful village. Perfect kitchen with everything we needed. Plus in the room next door you could find everything else: washing-machine, microwave, baking tools - just great! Very comfortable bedrooms and beds with a nice view on the hills. Good spacious bathroom with a modern shower (no bath - but we didn't need onRead moree). Very nice of the owner to give us milk, wine and toast and that very good local cheese! Hide
