Set in the picturesque village of West Witton, this delightful stone cottage offers a true taste of rural England. Sleeping three people, this dog-friendly property features spectacular country views and a lovely courtyard patio. With a boutique restaurant, historic pub and shop in the village, walks from your doorstep and the Yorkshire Dales all around, it offers a cosy and convenient base for walkers, cyclists and nature lovers.
Step inside this three-storey cottage to find beautifully restored interiors that radiate contemporary comfort and warmth. The open-plan lounge and dining room invites guests to unwind beside a sleek wood burner framed by the cottage’s original stone fireplace. Underfloor heating keeps toes toasty year-round, and a dining table sits next to the window and a charming window seat with sweeping views over Wensleydale. Next door, the compact kitchen has all the essentials for easy self-catering plus a quirky stable door leading to the back garden. When night falls, two dreamy bedrooms beckon you upstairs – there’s a super-king-size master on the first floor and a stylish single on the second floor, each with far-reaching country views. They share use of a first-floor bathroom, while outside, a secluded patio garden with outdoor dining facilities boasts panoramic views towards Penhill.
A dream location for hikers, you can pick up scenic trails to Penhill Beacon and the iconic Aysgarth Falls from your front door (both 4 miles). History enthusiasts can visit Bolton Castle (7 miles) and Richmond Castle (12 miles), while cheese lovers will find the Wensleydale Creamery (13.5 miles) irresistible. The market town of Leyburn is just 3.5 miles away, offering independent shops and eateries, a busy Friday market and is the starting point for rides on the heritage Wensleydale Railway.
