This charming cottage enjoys a superb location in the heart of the picturesque village of Kettlewell, offering a host of fantastic walks and places to see for couples and families.

Ideally situated in the popular village of Kettlewell and nestling at the foot of Great Whernside, this delightful cottage provides the perfect base from which to explore the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Kettlewell is home to dramatic landscapes and charming village pubs, as well as some of the best walks and cycle routes in the country. Take a stroll along the River Wharfe, located across from the cottage, and explore the many quintessential Dales villages that lie along its banks. For avid walkers, the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge is also within easy reach. Spend a day exploring the popular market town of Skipton and its historic castle or visit the spectacular Malham Cove, both 14 miles away.

Enter this cosy and attractive cottage into the entrance hall. A welcoming lounge lies to your left and has a comfortable sofa and reclining armchair: cosy up after a busy day of discovering the best of North Yorkshire and watch your favourite movie or boxset on the Smart TV. Completing the lounge is an open fire - enjoy the crackle and warmth whilst curled up on the sofa. The kitchen/diner is equipped with an electric oven and induction hob, microwave, dishwasher and fridge/freezer, allowing you to cook up delicious feasts for you and your guests. After preparing a bite to eat, head to the dining table for a sociable meal with loved ones. Afterwards, enjoy a glass of wine whilst taking in the splendid views of the wooded dale from the rear of the property. When the day is done retire upstairs where you will find two well-presented bedrooms, a king-size to the front and a double at the rear. Completing the accommodation is a shower room with WC.

Step outside to the garden which benefits from a table and chairs to enjoy al fresco dining on those warm summer evenings. The garden is laid to lawn and has fantastic views across the countryside. There is also a small patio at the front of the property to capture the last of the evening sun. There is off-road parking for one car.

A delightful comfortable homely cottage in a quiet village. Plenty of eating places. Loads of walking from the front door. Lovely ice cream kiosk. Shame about the only shop. It doesn't cater for visitors. Had to drive to Spar shop 6 miles away.

We liked the location: Kettlewell is a picturesque village, and we could walk to any of the 3 pubs and to the coffee shop. We did several walks directly from the house. The owner David was very helpful. We appreciated the comfortable bed and the good power shower. Well equipped kitchen. We liked sitting at the table outside on sunny days, with niceRead more views of the hills. Our favourite places to eat/drink were the Blue Bell Inn, and the '&then Tasting Deli' for coffee & cakes.

The cottage is close to the centre of Kettlewell and some lovely walks straight from the door. The kitchen has every piece of cooking equipment that you could want and the sitting room is cosy. Upstairs the bed is very comfortable and the bathroom has a lovely shower. Although the local garage is opposite we were not bothered by noise.
