Close to the centre of the old spa town of Ilkley, this lovely property offers a romantic retreat for two with an abundance of walks and cycle trails from the doorstep.
This lovely detached lodge-style property is conveniently located next to the owner’s home on the outskirts of Ilkley. From the lodge, you can enjoy a peaceful stroll along the River Wharfe to the town centre where you’ll find plenty of characterful shops, pubs, restaurants and cafés adorning the tree-lined streets. The train station is a short walk away with trains into Ilkley, Leeds and Bradford. Enjoy the views from the property across the Wharfe Valley, nestled at the foot of Ilkley Moor and Cow and Calf rocks, offering some of the most spectacular and unspoilt scenery. This location is also the starting point of the renowned 84-miles-long 'Dales Way', providing an abundance of picturesque walks and cycle routes. Nearby Bolton Abbey (7 miles) is one of the region's most scenic areas, and the priory ruins are well worth a visit.
This tastefully decorated lodge offers a spacious, open-plan living space with large patio doors leading out to the balcony that flood the room with light. The lounge area is adorned with comfortable sofas and a Smart TV so you can watch a movie or catch up on your favourite series. Rustle up a home-cooked meal in the stylish kitchen area, equipped with an electric double oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and Nespresso coffee machine. A wooden dining table sits in the corner of the room that comfortably seats four, providing the ideal place to enjoy a board game in the evening after a meal. A flight of stairs leads up to a bright and spacious king-size bedroom, the perfect place to get a good night’s sleep. There are also two bespoke single sofa beds for those who have little ones with them. Completing the interior of the property is a contemporary shower room with a shower and WC.
The patio doors in the living space open out onto a private balcony with outdoor furniture. Enjoy a glass of wine in the evening while gazing at the distant views across the Wharfe Valley. Further seating can also be found in an additional patio area. There is off-road parking for one car and bicycle storage on request.
