Located in Catterick Village in Richmondshire, this comfortable three-bedroom property boasts a delightful garden and countryside views. It’s a good choice for a family wanting easy access to the Dales and local amenities.

Inside this 18th-century property, light, fresh tones sweep through the ground floor creating a tranquil atmosphere. After a day on the Dales kick off muddy boots in the hallway and step through to the welcoming lounge. Sink into the huge sofa or pull up an armchair and enjoy a film on the TV or warm toes in front of the wood burner. Off from the living area, you’ll find a thoroughly modern kitchen equipped with every utensil you’ll need to create delicious meals and a sociable dining table with seating for six people. There’s even a snug room packed with beanbags and games, to keep the kids entertained. When it comes to bedtime, retire upstairs to the generously sized bedrooms. Featuring a mix of king-size and twin beds, the rooms are homely with pleasant decor and garden views. There’s also a family bathroom on this floor. In the morning, step outside and absorb the peaceful surroundings in the pretty country garden. Let the children run free on the extensive lawn while you sit and soak up the views.

The vibrant market town of Richmond is just 5 miles away. Stroll through the cobbled streets, visit the shops, galleries, museums, and explore the Norman castle. You can also catch a show at the Georgian theatre. From Richmond, keen walkers and cyclists can access the Yorkshire Dales.

Blacksmiths Cottage was a lovely, peaceful getaway. It was immaculately clean, well-equipped and comfortable. Its proximity to the A1(M), as well as the local amenities, make it incredibly convenient, but the village also feels tucked away from the busyness of life. Even our teenage children have asked to go back!

We were delighted with the location (gorgeous village), easy parking, cleanliness throughout and quality of fittings. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. Superbly comfortable beds and warm rooms on rather a chilly weekend. The garden is beautiful and secure for dogs/children. We would love to return for a longer stay as its a great locatRead moreion for visiting nearby places of interest. The welcome tray for us and gift bag for the dog were a special touch and much appreciated. Hide
