The amenities of Pateley Bridge are close at hand, including excellent old pubs and local eateries as well as the River Nidd, which winds its course through the village.

An excellent Nidderdale cottage base for family and friends to get together and enjoy the beautiful Yorkshire Dales.

Nestled in the steep-sided valley of the River Nidd is the charming Dales town of Pateley Bridge. This lovely little town is full of quaint little alleys and a variety of yards which house many interesting shops offering a wide range of unusual gifts and mementos. Well known for its prize-winning floral displays, this pretty little town also has a leisure centre which offers outstanding sports facilities, whilst the riverside park with children's play area is also worth a visit for anyone travelling with a young family. As well as the award-winning Nidderdale Museum – a lively collection of displays illustrating all aspects of life in the Dales – the town also hosts a number of Craft Workshops as well as excellent opportunities for walking and bird watching both up and downstream in the Nidd Valley.
