About this property

Poacher's Cottage, Leyburn, Yorkshire Dales

Originally built in 1877, the lovingly renovated detached Poacher's Cottage is the perfect hideaway for all seasons. Situated in the market town of Leyburn and just a short stroll from the local eateries and shops, this inviting property provides comfortable accommodation for up to four guests, for a family holiday or couple's getaway.

Upon entering into this charming property, you will feel instantly at home. The light and airy dining room leads through to the modern and well-equipped kitchen which provides everything needed to create a delicious meal prepared from local Yorkshire produce from the markets held in the surrounding villages. Walk through the dining room to the delightful sitting room where a movie night in with the big television beckons. Conveniently located in on the ground floor, king-size bedroom two features high ceilings and two large windows that flooding the room with natural light. Just along the corridor, the gorgeous family bathroom features a roll-top, claw foot bath. Upstairs on the first floor, the king-size master bedroom is a real attribute to Poacher's Cottage. Curated with an intimate seating area for two, and an additional television and DVD player, indulge in the opportunity to sit back and relax with a slow morning coffee.

Outside to the rear of the cottage, nine steep steps lead up to the raised barbecue, lawn and patio area where a perfectly situated outside dining table and chairs await. This is the great spot area for families or friends who want to enjoy time together on a mid-summers Yorkshire evening.

A swift walk from the cottage will take you to the centre of Leyburn, home to The Sandpiper Inn serving excellent food, plus a terrace garden to the front, perfect for watching the world go buy. Whilst Chambers Coffee House serve wonderful fresh coffee and cake to eat in or takeaway.

Wonderful cottage

Excellent base to explore the Yorkshire Dales from. The cottage is situated in a quiet street yet extremely close to the town centre and eateries/pubs/shops. It has been done up to a very high standard with everything well thought through and really well equipped. It was also really fresh and clean and everything seemed very new. There are some lovely design touches, too. The garden is fully enclosed, safe for a dog and very private. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it.
