Fill your days with walks, countryside sightseeing, bike rides and tours of towns and villages while staying in this romantic retreat. Situated on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park with the Lake District (13.5 miles), the Cumbrian coast (16 miles) and the North Pennines National Landscape (25 miles) just a short drive away, every day will be varied ob your outdoor adventure break. Sleeping two guests, this converted 17th-century cottage sits on the edge of the owner’s Georgian house but is self-contained with privacy assured. It's entirely dog friendly and possesses a courtyard garden, simply wonderful for soaking up that fresh northern air during a stay at any time of year.
Pass through the gravelled courtyard and up stone steps to reach the property. The house is centred around an open-plan living area with a spacious kitchen/diner and a lounge next door, accessible just two steps down. This dynamic space invites unbridled relaxation at each day’s end, equipped with a TV by comfortable seating in the lounge to curl up and watch a film or a favourite box set. The bedroom is a king-size offering just next door, and the bathroom is also down here, equipped with a shower over bath to allow you to soak away the day whichever way you prefer.
Whilst you’re welcome to off-road it, there are several well-established, waymarked pathways nearby for trekking the local area efficiently. One of these is The Dales Way, crossing your path by the River Dee, 6 miles away. This 80-mile route stretches across Cumbria and Yorkshire, encompassing the beauty spots of Gearstones (16 miles) to the south and Sedburgh (7.5 miles) to the north. Another local beauty spot is the Ribblehead Viaduct (15 miles), a feat of engineering worth factoring into your walking or biking route, not too far from the vibrant town of Ingleton (9 miles).
