About this cottage rental

A truly unique and romantic place to stay, but don't just take our word, please read the many 5 star reviews from our guests who comment on the character, location and how well equipped the cottage is. The cottage is pet friendly with a dog towel, bowls and leads in case fido's forgets his luggage.

There is so much to do within walking distance of the cottage, so why not stay for 7 nights and save on nightly rates. The location is perfect for walking, and cycling. You may already know Pateley Bridge was a key location for the Tour de France and the Tour de Yorkshire. The Nidderdale Way goes within a few yards of the cottage, as well as walks nearby at Brimham Rocks. For those of us less energetic York and Harrogate are a short drive away for shopping or why not visit the many places of interest such as the World Heritage Site of Fountains Abbey which is a 10 minute drive.

Built in 1780 for the head gardener of Bewerley Hall, the cottage is warm and cosy , full of character and original features, and is only a few minutes walk from Pateley Bridge with its range of quality independent shops and cafes.

The cottage is perfect for either a short break or a fortnight stay. With views over Nidderdale from the rear of the cottage and the cherry tree lined village green to the front. The outlook from every window is perfect. The gardens to both front and back are the ideal place to sit and sip a glass of wine.

On arrival you enter into the cottage by the sun room with views from its windows across the stone flagged courtyard over the dale. You then go into a contemporary style kitchen with the stone staircase in the corner and exposed ceiling. Lots of appliances and handy supplies such olive oil, salt and pepper , foil and cling film, so no need to pack the kitchen sink! Another door leads off to a large boot room with WC and washer dryer, a perfect spot to dry damp clothes after a day's hiking, or to rub down your dog.

One step from the kitchen to the sitting room with a large log burner sitting in the stone fireplace, wooden ceiling, comfortable sofa and leather library chair. There are books, maps, DVD, CD and WiFi is also available along with an iPod docking station. It is then up the stone steps to the romantic bedroom with a king sized bed dressed with Egyptian cotton bedding. Finally the large en suite bathroom comes with walk in shower and slipper bath, complete with luxury toiletries.

Outdoor there is garden furniture in both the rear and front gardens so you can soak up the sun. There is also two off street parking spaces so no need to worry about your car if you decide to spend a day walking.

We had a fantastic week at this beautiful cottage. It’s a gem. Short walk downhill to shops, pubs, restaurants. The cottage was well equipped with lovely crockery, quality bedding and super comfy bed. The welcome pack included milk, wine, ale and a delicious lemon cake. Couldn’t fault it. We will definitely be back.

From start to finish Nigel and Denise were on hand . We could not believe our luck with the well dressed rooms . Goodies which were thoughtful choosen for all of the guess . The bed was so comfortable and inviting special after a long days driving and walking . Even the bathroom had bath salts and hand made soaps . If we return to North Yorkshire we will definitely rebook the amazing cottage. Even the neighbours and locals made as feel at ease and welcomed. Thankyou NIGEL and Denise you are 10/10 for hospitality and luxury

My husband and I and our two spaniels really enjoyed our stay at Nigel and Denise’s beautiful cottage , we based ourselves here for the great Yorkshire show, just the right distance to travel each day to the show. The cottage was clean well equipped, the best nights sleep we’ve had in ages as the village is so lovely and quiet, but close night to partly for a stroll in the evenings. Great place to base for walks, beautiful rolling hills all around. Communication with the owners was exemplary and we knew exactly what to do on arrival and leaving, our car( pickup ) was a little too big for the parking space , but easily parked on the road an minute from the front door. The secure court yard was great as could let the dogs out anytime. The weather was scorching but as the cottage had lovely stone walls it was nice and cool inside. We will definitely be back. Thank you x
