Gallivantin Cottage

About this property

Aysgarth 2 miles. Gallivantin Cottage, a delightful stone-built, detached abode is situated in the charming village of Thornton Rust, North Yorkshire. With the added charm of a woodburning stove, en-suite bedrooms, and a Smart TV, this traditional cottage welcomes families and small groups seeking a rural retreat to the Yorkshire Dales National Park. As you step into Gallivantin Cottage, a warm and welcoming ambiance envelops you, creating the perfect backdrop for a quiet countryside escape. The ground floor hosts a plush sitting room featuring a Smart TV, ideal entertainment after a day of adventures, and a farmhouse-style kitchen/diner, where you can cook some tasty meals in the kitchen together.

Enjoy a board games night or toast to a superb holiday around the dining table, before retreating upstairs to bed. When sleep calls jump into one of the two bedrooms, to catch your night’s rest. The cottage exudes character and style, with beams and exposed stonework, making it feel like a home away from home. When weather permits, step outside to the side garden and you will find a relaxing space to enjoy your dinner al fresco style out on the furniture. Take advantage of being in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park by exploring the scenic trails and beautiful wildlife, not to mention the abundance of picnic spots.

Venture to Richmond to scrub up on some local history at The Green Howards Museum, delve into some local cuisine at Number 29 Tapas Bar, and take a stroll to Richmond Falls. Make special memories with your family and friends at Gallivantin Cottage.

The picturesque Wensleydale village of Bainbridge is situated in truly beautiful countryside just a mile and a half from Askrigg, known to millions as Darrowby in James Herriot's "All Creatures Great and Small", and four miles from the market town of Hawes, the home of Wensleydale cheese. Bainbridge boasts an extensive village green, which comes with its own set of stocks. This is an excellent holiday location for walkers, offering a great base from which to explore both Wensleydale and Swaledale, with beauty spots in the area including Aysgarth Falls, Semerwater, castles at both Castle Bolton and Middleham and of course, Hardraw Force - England's highest single, unbroken, drop waterfall at 99ft! There are also lots of interesting market towns and villages to visit, including Leyburn and Middleham, to name just a couple.
