The modern kitchen features everything you need to help you cater for your party with the fresh, local produce you have sourced on your many excursions, while the adjoining dining room, two steps down, has ample space for everyone to gather. As day turns to night, climb the stairs to your three inviting bedrooms.

There is also a family bathroom. Choose between the front and rear gardens when it comes to enjoying the fresh air at this Yorkshire cottage. Dine outside and take in the glorious, undulating views.

Lace up your walking boots and head straight out across the rolling dales from your doorstep.
