Property code: OC-DS321

At this delightful stone-built cottage buried deep in the Yorkshire Dales, relax with loved ones plus up to two dogs. It’s located alongside a little stream and waterfall so you can enjoy the babble of the water as you dine on the shared patio. Take your pets for short or long walks along the Pennine Way, which runs straight through the village. With space for four, this thoughtfully decorated cottage is ideal for a family unit or a small group of friends.

One of a trio of properties, this traditional cottage has a quintessential Yorkshire feel with its ceiling beams, low ceilings and a working fireplace for cosy open fires. Carefully chosen soft furnishings and tasteful artwork further enhance the rustic appeal. The open-plan living area, which has sweet dual-aspect windows, is excellent for relaxing as a group. Settle down for some TV after action-packed days in the fresh air, and enjoy leisurely meals prepared in the well-equipped kitchen. Upstairs, you'll find the property's two comfy bedrooms, comprising a double and a twin. This floor is completed by a relaxing bathroom. You’ll have shared patios out the back and front where you can sit with a coffee and admire the peaceful surroundings.

The local tearoom and bar is 200 metres from your front door, with the nearest shop 1.5 miles away in Muker. We also recommend visiting the Muker Literary Institute and Old School Art Gallery & Craft Centre. When it’s time to pull on those hiking boots, you can take scenic walks along the River Swale (1.5 miles) or perhaps head up to the 716-metre-high Great Shunner Fell summit (3.5 miles) to lap up the incredible views.

Lovely location, the cottage had everything we needed, and the local owner was very helpful. The little stream has a seating area in the sun, great for a gin and tonic before dinner. Lots of places to eat out although the local hotel no longer does evening meals. A great base for touring the northern Dales. Great area for bird watching, exceptRead more Raptors that were mostly absent. Would definitely return Hide
