Nestled on a working farm in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales, this country cottage is a peaceful rural escape just a short distance from the welcoming market town of Hawes. With a private garden, an open fire in the lounge and a wood burner in the dining room, you’ll enjoy your trip to the Dales at any time of the year.
Step inside through the handy boot room/utility area, where you can leave coats and walking boots after a day on the trails. The spacious kitchen/diner is full of farmhouse character with stone floors and an old dairy room. A former larder also provides excellent storage for bikes and outdoor gear. Gather in the separate dining room warmed by the wood burner – an inviting setting for sharing meals. The homely lounge features an open fire set within an exposed brick fireplace, offering a cosy space to unwind. A snug room provides an additional quiet corner to relax with a book or board game. Upstairs, four beautifully furnished bedrooms promise a restful night’s sleep. Choose from a super-king-size zip-and-link room, two king-size rooms with en-suite shower rooms, and a twin bedroom – all with lovely countryside views and thoughtful finishing touches. A family bathroom completes the first floor, ideal for refreshing mornings before heading out to explore. Outside, the patio garden invites you to soak up the scenic surroundings with outdoor dining furniture and a charcoal BBQ. There is also ample private parking for up to six cars, giving you the freedom to come and go at your own pace.
Just 3 miles away, Hawes is home to the famous Wensleydale Creamery, where you can watch traditional cheese-making in action, as well as a selection of independent shops, cafes and pubs. Outdoor enthusiasts will love roaming the surrounding dale of Raydale and the lake of Semerwater – perfect for fishing, canoeing, sailing and windsurfing. Scenic walking and cycling routes weave through the area, while unforgettable beauty spots such as Aysgarth Falls, Hardraw Force and the iconic Ribblehead Viaduct are all within easy reach.
