Overview
Property code: SZ141

Set in the village of Ravenstonedale in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, near the border with the Lake District National Park, this dog-friendly holiday cottage is set in a walker’s paradise.

A hiker and biker’s base in the undisturbed village of Ravenstonedale, this cosy cottage invites endless exploration of the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District close by (15 miles). Filled with characterful nooks and crannies, this bijou cottage is teeming with character and is extremely comfortable for four guests. It’s dog-friendly with a handy outbuilding providing space to store bikes and a spot for cleaning off muddy paws and fur, leaving you free to discover the dramatic countryside scenes surrounding the property with no fear of bringing paw prints into the neat and tidy house or struggling to find spots to park your bikes safely.

Wrought-iron beds, stone-flagged flooring and original wooden beams add to the historic charm of this end-terrace place. Step inside and get warm by the wood burner in the lounge. With ample comfortable seating and a Smart TV, this is a room to curl up in when the temperature drops. There’s a kitchen/diner just next door, ideal for preparing a hearty dinner for fuelling up in between hikes and rides. The first of the bedrooms, a lovely twin, is located downstairs with steep cottage steps leading onto the king-size bedroom and refreshing bathroom just upstairs. Find the outbuilding just by the courtyard space outdoors, complete with a bench for sitting with a morning coffee.

In the village, less than half a mile from home, find an inviting country pub that’ll welcome you back from any excursion with a pint and a delicious dinner. There are also more options for shopping and dining in the nearby town of Kirkby Stephen (5 miles), a picturesque Eden Valley highlight with traditional streets and the River Eden running through it. For walking opportunities, explore Wild Boar Fell (7.5 miles) and Yarlside (6.5 miles) close by or discover the dramatic ruins of Lammerside and Pendragon Castles, both within 5 miles.

The cottage is in a idyllic position and a quiet beautiful village. The cottage had a lovely feel to it and I loved the light in the kitchen as the sun went down. Comfy beds.

The cottage was just right for the two of us and two dogs. Very comfortable, well appointed kitchen and bathroom, easy to access and keep the dogs safely contained. Ravenstonedale is an unspoilt village with two cracking Inns, both serving food and good ales, walks from the doorstep, friendly locals, vintage bus service to Hawes and Barnard Castle.Read more Thoroughly enjoyed it, recommended.

A lovely home from home cottage. The only thing is take your own torch if you go in the winter or late night dog walk. It's well dark . While we were sitting outside chilling we had a visiter.

We loved the cottage and the village. The cottage is full of character, well equipped and the bed was very comfy, however, the sofa was less so. We enjoyed sitting by the burner in the evening, with a little tipple.

Cottage is immaculately clean with excellent facilities. You will not need to bring anything with you! The wood burner in the lounge heats the whole of the Cottage up and the kitchen is well stocked with every cooking utensil you could ever need. We would have liked to stay longer to explore more of the area, particularly as the weather was so beauRead moretiful. It's also within walking distance of a couple of great pubs, although, sadly one of them was closed! Never mind... we'll be back again for more Hide
