Take your beloved pet for long walks through picturesque Wensleydale then let them pad about the beautiful garden while you soak in the hot tub. This gorgeous, three-bedroom retreat in Preston-under-Scar, 1.5 miles from Wensley, was once home to the village station master. Today it offers sumptuous, boutique hotel-style accommodation for six guests. Adjacent to the Wensleydale Railway, where four-legged passengers can travel on the steam trains with their owners, it is less than 2 miles from the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
Step inside to discover the property centres around an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, where you can warm chilly feet and paws on the toasty heated floors and beside the wood burner. Pull the bi-folding doors open in summer to let your waggy-tailed chum wander outside. The chic kitchen has ample space for dishing up doggy dinners and preparing human feasts, plus a central island with breakfast bar, where you can perch with a cup of fresh coffee while your chum dozes. Dine at the table in here, settle down in front of the Smart TV and discuss dog-friendly activities for the following day. Also downstairs are a WC and one of your luxurious bedrooms, an en-suite twin which can also be made up as a super-king when requested in advance. Two more super-king-size bedrooms, one with an en-suite shower room and the other with an en-suite bathroom, are on the first floor. Let your furry friend keep you company on warm evenings out in the garden, with its lawn, seating areas on stone patios and the hot tub. Patio heaters, fairy lights and an outdoor music system make the most of al fresco living.
Stroll less than 500 metres with your faithful friend to see pretty Wensley Waterfall. Aysgarth Falls, where pups can dip their paws in the icy water and enjoy a long stretch of the legs, is 6.5 miles away.
