About this property
Set in the village of Embsay on the edge of Lower Wharfedale, this terraced cottage offers an elegant and cosy base for exploring the southern Dales. Beautifully renovated in a luxurious old-meets-new style, this two-bedroom cottage welcomes couples, families and small groups along with two happy hounds. Located 2 miles north of Skipton, this is a dream destination for outdoor enthusiasts with a wealth of cultural and historic attractions to keep the entire family entertained.
Perched in an elevated spot set back from the main road, this traditional terraced cottage has been reimagined with comfort and style in mind. Featuring atmospheric dark walls, period-style furniture, and a stone fireplace with a wood burner, the lounge is a haven of relaxation. When tummies start to rumble, head to the well-appointed kitchen to rustle up some family favourites before settling around the dining table for leisurely mealtimes. Upstairs, two warm and welcoming bedrooms invite you for a peaceful slumber at the end of each day. Choose between a king-size and a double, which share use of the family bathroom. A small office on the first floor also has a sofa bed suitable for a child. Outside, a rear patio provides a tranquil spot to enjoy a morning coffee or evening tipples and includes garden furniture and a charcoal BBQ. Parking is on-street and subject to availability.
Lace up your walking boots and set out to explore Embsay Moor and Reservoir on foot or hop on the Embsay and Bolton Abbey heritage railway to glide through picturesque countryside. Skipton (2 miles) has a rich culture and heritage with a 900-year-old castle, cobbled high street, and a wealth of independent shops and eateries. The natural attraction of Malham Cove is just 13 miles away.
