Set on the outskirts of the North Yorkshire Moors National Park, this quaint cottage offers a serene retreat for friends or family, surrounded by picturesque countryside brimming with rural charm. The stone walls hide a stylish interior where a crackling wood burner warms the cosy lounge, and outside, a pretty garden invites al fresco dining moments.

Enter the spacious kitchen/diner, equipped with everything you need to prepare a delicious home-cooked meal, then gather around the dining table to savour your creations while reflecting on the day's adventures. After dinner, retire to the lounge, where the wood burner sets the scene for cosy nights in. Light the fire, sink into the sofa, and unwind while watching a film on the Smart TV. Additionally, a convenient utility/boot room on the ground floor offers ample space for outdoor gear, and adjacent is a shower room. Climb the staircase to discover a single bedroom, while another staircase leads to two further bedrooms; a king-size and a super-king-size zip-and-link (which can be configured as a twin upon request). Completing the first floor is a tiled family bathroom with a bath and a separate shower. Step outside to the fully enclosed country cottage garden with colourful flowerbeds. Relax at the garden table and chairs, perfect for al fresco dining or enjoying your morning coffee. Bike storage is available.

Lovely cosy cottage, was perfect for the four of us (myself, husband and two adult children). Beautiful furnishings and had everything we needed for our stay, including a very nice welcome basket with some goodies. The cottage was also in a great location for walking into the village centre and for travelling further afield by car.

Dale Cottage was a wonderful place to stay! Great communication with Debbie, pre-visit information provided and on arrival a lovely welcome box (including dog biscuits!) and a folder/ leaflets of useful local information. The cottage itself was beautiful; clean with modernly decorated rooms, comfortable beds and all the commodities needed. The gardRead moreen was a good size and enclosed which was great for the dog. The area of Thorton-le-Dale is very lovely with lots of great walks and quaint shops. Hide

Immaculate and very comfortable cottage in a great location. Highly recommended. Some recent reviews have mentioned the overgrown garden however when we arrived a lot of clearance work had been done and its a very pleasant, enclosed garden. The only thing I have not seen mentioned is that the garden area is raised up some steps and there is an unfeRead morenced drop of about 5 feet backing onto a concrete path at the back of the cottage. Not for unattended young children. Hide

As already stated the cottage was fine, but our disappointment was the garden. The pictures on the website showed a very attractive and well cared for rear garden. It did in fact look neglected and overgrown, making it difficult to access. We had hoped to have full use, especially with the good weather we were lucky to enjoy, but it was not possiblRead moree.

Lovely, well presented cottage ; very comfortable and clean. Location is excellent for visiting both the North Yorkshire moors and the coast. We didnt use the third bedroom but if a young child were to use it it is the other side of the house to the main bedrooms and living room so a child would not be heard easily.
