Lose yourself in the beauty of the Yorkshire Dales at this homely family retreat nestled in the village of Thwaite. Spend your days discovering awe-inspiring landscapes on foot or by bike and exploring sweet nearby villages such as Muker (1.5 miles), Reeth (10 miles), and Aysgarth (11 miles). The dog-friendly cottage has an idyllic setting next to a stream and waterfall, and with space for up to four, is perfect for a family or small group of friends holidaying with up to two canine chums.
A step inside this appealing stone cottage takes you straight to the welcoming lounge, a delightful space with a beamed ceiling and matching wooden staircase leading to the sleeping quarters. You’ll have a comfy sofa, entertainment options including a TV with Freesat, and an open fire for keeping toasty on chilly evenings. There’s also a dining table with room for four, prepared in the well-equipped kitchen nearby. Outside, two shared outdoor area are available for making the most of the fresh air, one at the front and one at the back. The rear space is set up for dining with a table and chairs, and has a lovely location next to the water, so you can listen to the relaxing trickling sounds as you enjoy a cuppa.
You’ll have a welcoming tearoom and bar within 200 metres and a shop a little further away in Muker (1 miles). There are plenty of quality walking routes your dog(s) will love surrounding the village – you could wander along the River Swale (1.5 miles) for a pleasant leg stretch. Walking aficionados will be keen to join the Pennine Way, a popular National Trail covering 268 miles that runs through the village. The local section is arguably one of the best of the entire route, with the 716-metre-high Great Shunner Fell summit (3.5 miles) a highlight.
