Reeth, a charming and well-liked village, is tucked between Calver Hill, Fremington Edge, and Harkerside at the northernmost point of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, where Arkengarthdale and Swaledale meet. Reeth, which is located in an area of outstanding natural beauty with attractive rolling hills and breathtaking views, has a colourful past since it was first settled by the Saxons and has since been recognised as a lead mining town and a centre for hand knitting. The Swaledale Museum, which is situated close to a wide variety of stores, tea cafes, and restaurants, proudly displays both trades. Reeth has three options for historic inns, including the charming Buck Inn, which is whitewashed like many of the 18th century houses clustered around the triangular village green. Furthermore, accessible old market towns like Richmond and Leyburn provide a wider range of amenities. Aysgarth Falls, Semerwater, and Hardraw Force (England's largest single drop waterfall at 99 feet) are all within a short drive of Askrigg. Whether you prefer to explore the caves, cliffs, waterfalls, or any of the numerous walking and cycling routes that encircle this colourful and varied terrain, Reeth makes for an excellent starting point for exploring North Yorkshire's stunning, sweeping countryside.

    Very remote and peaceful. Owner provided a bottle of wine for our arrival, which was a lovely touch. Owner also popped by to make sure all was ok. I would recommend a stay here for couples and their dog as some lovely walks. I would just add to make sure you get essentials in as a long way to the shops if you forget anything!

    Definitely go back, and although we didn’t meet the owner, she did text us to see if everything was okay.

    The cottage was clean and the bedding was gorgeous but that's the only thing that I can say on the plus side the single sofa chair is the most uncomfortable chair I have ever sat in and the two seater sofa was tiny my husband likes to lounge at night but this was not big enough and hes only 5ft2inch as for the dining room chairs i sat on one and my bottom nearly hit the floor plus we were so cold we ended up coming home early on Wednesday cutting our holiday short because the only place we could get warm was in bed i had thought i would have a warming bath but the water runs that slow it would have taken for ever to fill the bath all in all a very disappointing holiday
