What a lovely cottage

A lot of thought and effort has gone into providing a really excellent holiday cottage for 2. The location is very good for both walking and sightseeing. The cottage was beautifully presented and very well equipped and we felt so comfortable. The owners take a lot of care to ensure everything is just right.

A quiet, peaceful and well appointed cottage

Tastefully decorated to a high standard with all mod cons available. Nice welcoming touch from the owner with flowers, wine and a warming glow from the log burner. The cottage is in a quiet hamlet within easy reach of places to visit and lots of country walks starting from your front door.

Peaceful, tranquil and a perfect base to explore surrounding towns and cities.

We had a really relaxing stay at this lovely cottage in the beautiful setting of Timble. It was wonderful chilling out with the log burner on and a glass or two of wine. The cottage itself is decorated and furnished to a really high standard (the bathroom is gorgeous). Dawn and her husband were lovely too. Can’t fault a thing - we would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a base to visit Leeds, Harrogate, Otley or even York as it’s all nearby.

About the host

Hosted by Dawn Meeks

My little 'cottage' industry started in 2002 when myself and my husband decided to restore a very run down but beautiful Yorkshire stone barn on our property.
The Old Dairy was completed and has been such a success that in 2013 we opened our new cottage 'The Courtyard. Still part of our barn conversion and adjacent to The Old Dairy the cottages are perfect for 2 couples who like to holiday together but prefer their own 'space'.
Our ethos in the new cottage was to create a beautiful space in the former school mistresses house. 'Affordable Luxury' was our focus and we are delighted with the outcome.
I offer a unique catering service whereby I can cook and serve a freshly cooked evening meal to you in one of the cottages. Our website has full details of the current seasonal menu. www.timblecottages.co.uk

Why they chose this property

Although we have owned the property since 1997 The Old Dairy Cottage was only converted in 2002. Once a former outbuilding and dairy the restoration was needed to preserve the structure. The reason I have chosen to have a holiday cottage in this area is that it is just the perfect environment for relaxing, walking, cycling and to tour around and enjoy the wonderful things The Yorkshire Dales has to offer. Situated in a dedicated area of 'Outstanding Natural Beauty' the views from the cottage take a lot to beat. It's actually so good that I live next door! It's like being on holiday for me 365 days of the year.
The success of The Old Dairy encouraged us to open 'The Courtyard' in March 2013. We just couldn't supply the demand for luxury accommodation and regularly had to turn enquiries away. 3 months of hard work converting another part of our property produced The Courtyard Cottage but was well worth the effort. We are delighted with the outcome!

What makes this property unique

Perfectly situated for touring around Yorkshire and no more than a few miles from most of the major places of interest. Harrogate, Skipton, Ilkley, Ripon, York, Grassington, Masham etc. etc. the list is endless.
The village of Timble has a wonderful local pub/restaurant serving great food. With it being only a 2 minute walk from the cottage there is no need to drive out for a meal.
Alternatively, I can serve an evening meal in the cottage. My catering business has the necessary permits to allow me to offer this service. All freshly cooked using local ingredients this is a facility quite unique to holiday cottages.
