  • A spacious retreat creating a peaceful getaway surrounded by wildlife, an ancient woodland and precious Red Squirrels

  • Just 1.5 miles from Hawes, discover this idyllic cottage nestled in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales
Property code: OC-94120

A beautiful and stylish one-bed property in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, wonderful for a solo traveller or a couple keen to get away from it all. Right across from an ancient woodland, this idyllic countryside retreat is alive with wildlife, including the elusive red squirrel – will you spot one during your stay? Despite its peaceful rural location, this holiday home is just 1.5 miles from the bustling market town of Hawes, where you’ll find pubs, shops and the popular Dales Countryside Museum.

This welcoming stone-built home is decorated in a homely style, with plenty of colour and warming touches like curtains, cushions and rugs. In the lounge, sink into plush seating, switch on the Smart TV and spark up the wood burner for a cosy evening in with your pets snoozing at your feet. The kitchen-dining room, which has attractive blue units and a dining table in the middle, is illuminated by natural light streaming in through the patio doors. In fine weather, step outside to the enclosed garden and tuck into intimate dinners under the stars. You’ll have a table, chairs and BBQ so you can sizzle up a feast surrounded by wildlife and greenery.

You’ll find plenty to do nearby, with endless footpaths and hiking trails leading from your front door, and majestic waterfalls within 1.5 miles – Cotter Force and Hardraw Force, England's largest single-drop waterfall. Visit the Wensleydale Creamery in nearby Hawes for some cheese sampling or take a day trip to Leyburn, a charming market town 18.5 miles away.

Great cottage, cosy, clean and really well equipped. Without a doubt the comfiest bed we have slept in on all our trips. Not only is the garden dog secure but it is beagle secure, which puts it on another level. Plenty of places to see and Hawes has a fantastic chip shop. Would love to come back in the summer
