About this property

Situated in the charming village of Reeth, in the county of North Yorkshire, is this stone-fronted cottage, The Old Store, 2 Alpine Terrace. Nestled within the Yorkshire Dales National Park and closely situated to an array of amenities and beauty spots, whilst hosting a contemporary interior and spacious bedrooms, the cottage welcomes three guests and one well-behaved dog, perfect for a family or group of friends. Enjoy preparing and savouring your meals in the well-equipped kitchen/diner, full of contemporary appliances and fixtures, before heading to the inviting sitting room, and relaxing upon the plush corner sofa, with the TV and eco-burner in view. Travel upstairs to meet a sleek shower room, fitting for a morning refresh before heading out to the village green or embarking further into the National Park. After a day of exploration, rest your eyes in one of two well-presented bedrooms, including a super-king and a small double, offering flexible sleeping arrangements for your group. Heading into Reeth, benefit from several different eateries, including The Buck, and The Burgoyne, whilst your essentials can be purchased from the corner shop. On your travels you will also find Swaledale Museum, displaying the local heritage, whilst Downholme Viewing Point, providing vistas across the surrounding hills, and Richmond Castle, offering an interactive exhibition, are accessible by car. Venturing into Richmond, enjoy tours of Easby Abbey and its picturesque ruins set upon River Swale, take a stroll around the popular backdrop of River Swale Waterfalls, or perhaps visit Richmondshire Museum, covering the town's history from the Stones ages to the present time. Barnard Castle is also a must-visit, elevated above River Tees, along with the charming ruins of Egglestone Abbey, the ideal setting for an afternoon picnic, whilst Deepdale Nature Reserve is a recommended wooded area for avid walkers and explorers. Enjoy a nature-filled getaway by staying at The Old Store, 2 Alpine Terrace.

Reeth, a charming and perennially 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 breath-taking 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 Hotel, which is whitewashed like many of the 18th century houses clustered around the triangular village green. Additionally accessible old market towns like Richmond and Leyburn provide a wider range of amenities.

    Difficult to understand heating, when arrived all heating switched off at the individual wall heater’s wall plugs? No operational heater in bathroom? Did not work out how to use ornamental “log fire”. So our arrival did not feel welcome.

    The property was bright, warm, spacious & well maintained. The kitchen was well equipped especially with crockery and cutlery which meant the dishwasher could be filled properly over a couple of days. The lounge was a good size & a comfy L-shaped settee big enough for two people to stretch out & relax after a day's walk. We did not use the eco burner as we had the heatwave during our stay. . The main bedroom was large with views over the village green. Second bedroom was good size as well. Bathroom & toilet combined was compact but ok, with a good shower.The sink was small with no shelves for toiletries but not a big issue. The village shop is combined with the Post Office & was surprising well stocked with basics if needed. The green had plenty of seats & was nice sit for a hour or so & enjoy the sunshine. Will be back.

    Ideal location for the Northern Dales. Great pubs and restaurants in Reeth. Minor critism is the lack of wardrobes.
