A Grade II listed cottage in a spectacular rural setting, surrounded by the dramatic beauty of Swaledale.

In the north of Yorkshire, the Yorkshire Dales combine stunning countryside with a thriving culinary scene and fascinating industrial history. Rolling hills and expansive moorlands dominate the landscape, dotted with charming villages and bustling market towns. Whether you're a keen hill walker or simply wish to immerse yourself in the character of the county, The Yorkshire Dales National Park and Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty promise an unforgettable country escape. Wander through quaint towns such as Masham, known for its vibrant markets and local produce, visit the beautiful Aysgarth Falls with its stunning triple waterfalls, or unwind at the spa on the idyllic Swinton Estate. Walkers are spoilt for choice for scenic trails, from the challenging Pennine Way to the family-friendly Swale Trail. The area also offers excellent mountain biking routes and diverse wildlife spotting opportunities in protected habitats, each promising breathtaking views and a deep connection to the land. Beyond the Dales, nearby points of interest include the historic town of Richmond at the edge of Swaledale, home to an ancient castle and charming shops, the ruined Rievaulx and Bolton Abbeys, and the historic city of York, with its winding medieval streets and iconic York Minster. Whether you're exploring local markets, hiking remote trails, or delving into history, the Yorkshire Dales is the perfect location for a memorable getaway.
