Experience an authentic taste of life in the Yorkshire Dales at this stunning stone-built cottage tucked away in the village of Pateley Bridge and a short walk from its award-winning high street. Recently renovated and capable of comfortably accommodating up to four guests, it's perfect for a couples' retreat or a wholesome, family-friendly getaway for anyone who loves the great outdoors. A blue tartan sofa and wood burner make a welcoming first impression, while exposed stonework only adds to the cosy atmosphere. Walk through, and you'll find a compact but well-equipped kitchen with a boot room and bathroom out back. Upstairs are the two beautifully furnished bedrooms, with standout features that include a stunning (decommissioned) fireplace in the main bedroom and a skylight that floods the second bedroom with natural light. Outside, you'll enjoy access to a shared courtyard where you can sit on a summer's eve and tuck into a pizza and a glass of wine from the nearby pizzeria – the perfect way to refuel after a day of hiking through the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), following the banks of the River Nidd banks, through fields and meadows, for miles either up or downstream.

About The North Pennines

It’s official – the North Pennines are beautiful. Designated an official Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a UNESCO geological heritage site, this undulating area of North Yorkshire has spectacular scenery and a landscape that could tell the story of aeons gone by. Tiny stone-house villages and hamlets dot the valleys and cluster around babbling rivers – Bowlees is particularly idyllic and is home to the North Pennines information centre....
