Property code: OC-DS153

Gaze out across the verdant Yorkshire Dales from this welcoming stone retreat in Melmerby. Sleeping four guests, the two-bedroom, split-level holiday home, which is 5 miles from Leyburn, is one of two set in this beautiful location, close to the owner’s home, yet benefitting from privacy. It accommodates canine companions and has an abundance of scenic walks on the doorstep. It comes with its own patio and has access to a shared garden.

Head inside via the conservatory, where you can pause for a spell to take in the spectacular views. Wander on through to the lounge/diner to light the wood burner on autumn and winter days and kick back and relax after your busy trips out exploring. Find a film to watch on the Smart TV in here, listen to the radio or chat about your day. When mealtimes beckon, amble through to the kitchen to prepare delicious dishes for your party to enjoy at the table in the lounge/diner. Take five steps up to the sleeping accommodation at the cottage when you are ready to retire for the night. Here you will find a double bedroom, a twin and a family bathroom. Guests at this cottage have access to a shared garden. Bask in the sunshine out on the stone patio on fine summer days or take the children or pets over to the shared garden. There is ample parking at this property.

Spend the afternoon in Leyburn, browsing on the market stalls and in the independent shops. Stop at Wensley Waterfall, 3.5 miles from the cottage, on the way home. Also visit the renowned Aysgarth Falls, which has been a backdrop to scenes in many films and is 6.5 miles away. See the beautiful ruins of Jervaulx Abbey and walk through their scenic surroundings, 6.5 miles away.

The cottage is in a lovely location with stunning views from the front (but is a drive through country lanes to get to, so be aware if you dont like them!) Be advised this property is listed as having an "enclosed garden" but it's actually a shared driveway (with a gate). The local pub is small but with great food and worth a visit. There are someRead more good walks direct from the cottage- Phillip was great for details on these. Going up into the Dales specifically was a good one! Leyburn is nice with a Co-op but Catterick has the nearest supermarket. Lots to see and do around. Hide

Very nice place to be, but it is out of date.

Cottage was in need of a good clean throughout. Surface dust had accumulated over a period of time, and a mattress protector was clearly soiled. Shame about this as the location is beautiful and well worth a visit.
