About this property

Cosy 2 bedroom cottage with wonderful views across Wensleydale.

Castle View, Castle Bolton really does live up to its name, with views of Bolton Castle that quite literally can not be surpassed (and are only equalled by our neighbour!)
Cosy but modern,, the cottage is open plan downstairs, with kitchen area, a large dining table, sofa, chairs and electric stove along with a smart TV, high speed broadband and an amazon echo . The open plan nature creates a good living space.
Upstairs there are two bedrooms , one with two single beds and the main bedroom with a king size bed. The bath room upstairs is fitted with a modern walk in shower, toilet and wash basin.
There is central heating throughout plus the gorgeous wood burning stove for a relaxing quiet night in.
Outside there is an enclosed rear seating area with furniture. (stored in the outhouse). There is a bench at the front of the property looking towards Bolton Castle. Warm outside tap (for washing your 4 legged family members in comfort)

Excellent location with wonderful views of the castle. Cottage was clean and comfortable. Host very responsive to messages and provided lots of information about the cottage and local area. We were even given a voucher to use for a free visit to the castle - very mush appreciated. Lovely part of the Yorkshire dales and not far from forbidden corner and the Wensleydale creamery.

The cottage is so lovely and cosy. It had everything we needed. A great base for walks and only a 10 to 15 minutes walk to the local village pub, which we would recommend. Another excellent choice for food was The Wheatsheaf Inn at Carperby. Any questions we had were answered by our host. She was very welcoming. We would definitely stay again.

Perfect base to explore the Dales

We had a lovely, comfortable stay in Castle View cottage. It was perfectly located, and the short walk to Bolton Castle and view from the front windows were fantastic. Even on rainy days we found lots to do and it was great just staying in and watching the weather with a cup of tea. Highly recommended!

We had booked Castle View as our accommodation for our wedding at Bolton Castle. Our bridal party stayed with us and at the cottage next door and it was perfect. We could not have asked for more.

a beautiful little cottage in a lovely area. Quiet and peaceful, neighbours lovely, loved listening to the geese, curlews, pheasants and the owls at night. The only disappointing item was the bed was so hard we have both walked away with a bad back. Some people don't mind a hard bed so this is not a complaint. We certainly would go back but would take a topper with us :)

About the host

Hosted by Anne V Walton

Host profile image
Hello- thank you for looking at our little gem of a cottage which we bought in 2015 as a restoration project. We use it as a weekend and summer get away so it's our home from home. Over the last few years we have enjoyed getting to know the area and have truly fallen in love with Wensleydale.

Why they chose this property

Our Cottage is set at the head of Castle Bolton village with views of Bolton Castle that quite literally are unsurpassed and only equalled by our neighbour!
We sympathetically restored the cottage in 2015 giving it a very homely warm feel. During 2024, we refurbished the soft furnishings and decorated throughout. We hope the pictures do it justice

What makes this property unique

Castle View is ideal for a quiet relaxing weekend.
