Cringley House - The Drovers

About this property

Indulge in a stay to remember when you book this romantic retreat for two within a handsome period building in the Yorkshire village of Askrigg. Sleeping two guests, but also offering dog-friendly accommodation, the one-bedroom, second-floor hideaway offers elegant, studio-style accommodation which is simply overflowing with character. Nestled in the glorious scenery of Wensleydale, the picture-postcard village makes an ideal place from which to plan forays out into the surrounding Yorkshire Dales National Park.

Enter the striking Yorkshire building where episodes from the BBC’s original series of drama All Creatures Great and Small were filmed. This stone abode has now been converted into seven sumptuous apartments. Discover yours offers exceptional comfort, as well as more than a touch of luxury. At the heart of the retreat is the open-plan lounge/ bedroom/diner where you can unwind together after returning from your exciting trips out. Settle down in front of a romantic movie or sip chilled wine at the table. The adjacent kitchen has all the equipment you require to prepare delicious dinners for two on those evenings you decide not to dine out. Make fresh coffee here too to sip through in the main room. At the end of each superb day away enjoy a hot shower or a long soak in the freestanding bath in the beautiful bathroom before treating yourselves to a great night’s sleep in the king-size bed. There is no outside space with this bolthole but the scenic open countryside is within 200 metres of the property.

Head off on foot across the glorious Wensleydale countryside surrounding Askrigg. Spend time in Hawes, 5.5 miles away, where you can visit the famous Wensleydale Creamery. See Cotter Force Waterfall, 6.5 miles from the retreat, while you are here. Plan a trip to the magical Aysgarth Falls, 5 miles away.
