Retreat with your friends or relatives to this inviting conversion on the edge of the North Yorkshire market town of Masham. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom, single-storey retreat is perfect for a small family or couples eager to immerse themselves in the picturesque Yorkshire Dales. Set on the edge of a campsite, the hideaway is in a great position for walks and cycle rides and has a courtyard garden to return to for outdoor relaxation on fine days.

Step inside the red-brick retreat to find accommodation with an abundance of character, as well as contemporary touches, such as underfloor heating. Vaulted ceilings and wooden beams reveal some of the history of this building, which was once a coal store. Today it presents an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, where you can relax, chat and enjoy quality time together when you are not out and about. Find films on the Smart TV in the lounge, cook up delicious meals in the kitchen, then dine together inside or out. When you are ready to turn in for the night, make your way through to one of the two super-king-size bedrooms. Each of these can also be arranged as a twin if discussed in advance. There is also a family shower room at the cottage. Enjoy tasty summer lunches made with fresh Yorkshire produce out in your courtyard garden. Have a cocktail out here under the stars when the sun has set on summer nights.

Spend time in Masham, 0.5 miles away, where you can shop, play golf and take a tour of two different breweries. While away an afternoon in Richmond, 14.5 miles away, wandering the picture-postcard town and visiting the impressive castle. From here you can also stroll along the River Swale to the ruins of Easby Abbey and picnic in the attractive grounds.

Absolutely fantastic little holiday cottage. We stayed with our 2 children and 1 infant and it was the perfect base for our holiday. Fantastic location, we crammed in so much. The cottage is very clean and comfortable with everything you could need. We absolutely loved it, thanks so much!

Spotlessly clean accommodation. Extremely comfortable beds and the kitchen is equipped with everything you could possibly need. Very generous welcome basket including a basket of Tassimo coffee pods. Val is extremely helpful with recommendations of places to eat and visit. Our second stay here and we will be returning

Fabulous place clean, comfortable beds, lovely kitchen well furnished with everything you need.Comfortable sofas & nice dining table & chairs, with a nice patio set for when sun shining. There is a lovely cafe on site, definitely recommend Sunday lunch but also does breakfast & lunches. It's a peaceful quiet place which is not far from many other pRead morelaces like Bedale, Harrogate, York etc, so if looking for great walks or off to Harrogate your fairly central & I would definitely recommend!
