Furnished to a high standard throughout and retaining many of the original features, including a woodburning stove, beams and the original turreted windows, these features all add to the immense charm of this Dales cottage. This cottage in Middleham features an open plan living area with a modern well-equipped kitchen, dining area and sitting area, all set up to provide a warm and cosy holiday home. The first floor boasts a galleried bedroom with stylish furnishings, two turreted windows overlooking the garden and a lovely en-suite shower room. Enjoy sitting out in the walled garden or taking a lovely stroll around the village. Guests can also enjoy the wonderful atmosphere of this famous horse racing town, or take a walk onto Penn Hill and watch the horses training on the gallops. The amenities of Middleham are on the doorstep, including excellent old pubs and local eateries, as well as a castle dating back to the 11th century. Hawes, with its Dales Countryside Museum, Wensleydale Creamery, Aysgarth Falls and Jervaulx Abbey is just a short drive away. The Forbidden Corner at Leyburn, just three miles away, is an extraordinary 4 acre garden containing a labyrinth of tunnels, follies and other surprises.
