In the charming village of Austwick, this cosy cottage is the perfect retreat after a day exploring the Yorkshire Dales right on your doorstep. Perfectly located, you'll find more picturesque walking trails nearby than you can shake a hiking pole at (maps can be picked up within the village). Alternatively, jump in the car and reach White Scar Cave in less than fifteen minutes or visit the beautiful glacial lake of Malam Tarn, only 7-miles from home. Back inside, the original wooden beams and stone fireplace will soon have you feeling all warm and relaxed. Sink into a brown chesterfield sofa, cradle a cup of hot cocoa, and settle down for a delightful evening in front of the crackling log burning stove – we can think of nothing better after an adventurous day wandering the natural landscape. In warmer months, sprawl out into the back garden and enjoy a bottle of fizz while overlooking views of the Three Peaks area of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. As dinner time arrives, ensure you take the short five-minute drive down to The Courtyard Dairy, where you can taste local cheeses and sample their cakes and buns while enjoying a cup of tea...

About The Yorkshire Dales

Hillsides turned purple with heather and glacial valleys cutting through the wilderness make up the landscape of the Yorkshire Dales. A National Park since the 1950s, this wild region is where long walks through the countryside are rewarded with a pint of real ale by a crackling fire in pubs that have stood for centuries.
