A gorgeous rustic property set amidst the enchanting Yorkshire Dales. This charming Dark Skies approved accommodation by YDNP cottage provides a delightful escape for groups of up to six and two dogs – wonderful for families or friends seeking a mix of relaxation and adventure. With sweeping views of both the Ribblehead and Dandrymire viaducts, the location combines the magic of Victorian engineering with the natural beauty of enchanting moorlands. And whether you're a history buff, a nature enthusiast or a foodie, the area promises something for everyone.
On arrival, step inside through the rear entrance into a welcoming hallway leading to a cosy living room. Here, a leather sofa and wood burner invite you to unwind after a day of exploring. The country-style kitchen has lovely slab flooring, a Belfast sink and a wood burner set within a stone and wood fireplace. Cook up hearty meals then tuck in in the elegant dining room overlooking the stunning dales. From the hallway, head upstairs to find the family bathroom with a bath and a walk-in shower. The twin bedroom is styled in elegant pastel pink tones while the inviting double bedroom is adorned in soothing soft green. Both showcase charming original wooden beams that add plenty of character. At the far end of the hallway lies the spacious king-size bedroom, offering the same breathtaking views of the Victorian viaduct and the rolling Dale as the other two bedrooms – delightful to wake up to! Outside, you’ll find a delightful patio area and parking for three cars.
There’s plenty to do nearby. History lovers will want to check out the Arthurian legend of Pendragon Castle (8 miles) or admire the impressive Ribblehead Viaduct (15 miles). Foodies will delight in the market town of Hawes (6 miles), where independent shops, cosy pubs and the famous Wensleydale Creamery await. Outdoor adventurers can set off on scenic walks directly from the cottage or take on the challenge of the Yorkshire Three Peaks, a 7-mile drive or a short train ride from nearby Garsdale station (500 metres).
