About this property
Cliffe House Cottage is a romantic holiday home nestled on the outskirts of Pateley Bridge in North Yorkshire. Tucked away at the top of a quiet hill, where the only sounds are the rustling of leaves and the gentle bleating of sheep, this home is a sanctuary for couples craving stillness, beauty, and a touch of rustic romance. This charming hideaway rests on the edge of Pateley Bridge, with sweeping 360-degree views of the enchanting Nidderdale. Arrive via a secluded country track and park up off-road. Inside, you’ll find a lovely super-king-size bedroom perfect for long, lazy mornings. A spacious bathroom invites you to unwind with a hot soak in the tub or refresh under the walk-in shower.
The heart of the cottage, a warm and inviting sitting room, is made for fireside evenings, curled up with a good book or a glass of wine in front of the woodburning stove. Cook up something delicious in the kitchen using fresh herbs from the garden, then enjoy your meal as you gaze out over miles of untouched countryside. You’ll find walking trails just outside your door, including access to the famed Pateley Bridge footpath, perfect for hand-in-hand strolls through fields and dales. Nearby, explore the natural wonders of Brimham Rocks, or spend a romantic afternoon wandering the spa towns of Harrogate and Ripon.
Looking to make your stay extra special? The owner is happy to offer private guided tours of the area and can provide home-cooked meals upon request, both available for an additional charge. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply seeking peace and connection, Cliffe House Cottage offers a truly magical escape for two.
Pateley Bridge, voted Great Britain's Best Village High Street in 2016, is a charming Dales town nestled in the steep-sided valley of the River Nidd. Quaint little alleys and yards off the steep main street house many interesting shops offering a wide range of unusual gifts and mementos, plenty of places to eat and drink, two award-winning butchers, a bakery, and the oldest sweet shop in England. Pateley Bridge is well known for its prize-winning floral displays, whilst the nearby leisure centre incorporates a swimming pool and the riverside park with children's play area is not to be missed. Also worth a visit are the town’s Craft Workshops and the award-winning Nidderdale Museum - a lively collection of displays illustrating all aspects of Dales life in the past. Up and downstream, the Nidd Valley offers excellent opportunities for walking, cycling, and birdwatching, across an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and up to the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
