Set in the village of Ravenstonedale in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, near the border with the Lake District National Park, this dog-friendly holiday cottage is set in a walker’s paradise.

Take two very content canines with you to this cottage at Ravenstonedale in the Yorkshire Dales National Park and watch their furry faces light up with sheer doggy delight. Also sleeping four guests, the inviting, two-bedroom abode is set in verdant surroundings, with a plethora of fabulous walks. Positioned 5 miles from Kirkby Stephen, the charming retreat is also 8 miles from the fringes of the Lake District, with its dramatic scenery and myriad of enticing fell hikes.

Return to the comfort of this cottage with its inviting accommodation, to light up the wood burner in the lounge and see your happy hounds stretch out and dream about their exciting holiday adventures whilst you relax and watch the Smart TV. Enjoy special times with your family and faithful friends. Make your way into the kitchen/diner to prepare delicious dinners for hounds and humans alike, then lay the table for a lively holiday meal. At the end of each fun-filled day, lay your head in either the twin bedroom, also downstairs, or the king-size room, which can be found, together with the family bathroom, up a steep, cottage-style staircase. Take the pups out for a stroll in the morning then relax in the sunshine on the bench in the enclosed patio area with a cup of coffee. Find you have space for storing cycles in an external building, which also has a washing machine and tumble dryer. There is parking for one car at the cottage.

Pack snacks, water and dog treats and head off on the 7-mile, circular Ravenstonedale and Smardale Walk. This will take you beside a river and past the Smardale Viaduct. Have a day out in the scenic Lake District: drive 21 miles to Haweswater Reservoir to tire furry feet out on a 10-mile loop of the lake.

A wonderful, clean, comfortable & lovely cottage. The cottage offers everything you need for a weeks stay. My family and I found it perfect for walks on the doorstep or out into the national park with our dog. The village is a lovely friendly place to stay.

The cottage offers an outbuilding to store our muddy boots at the end of the day & a great multi fuel stove to keep warm. Hide

We had a lovely stay in Ravenstonedale the cottage was very comfortable. The pubs in the village are fantastic The Kings Head is very friendly and relaxed for a drink or pub food. We had a couple of wonderful meals at The Black Swan. I would recommend booking to eat at either pub to ensure you arent disappointed as they both get quite busy.

We loved the cottage and the village. The cottage is full of character, well equipped and the bed was very comfy, however, the sofa was less so. We enjoyed sitting by the burner in the evening, with a little tipple. Ravenstonedale was a new location for us- we loved walking from the door straight into beautiful scenery and it was great to have a puRead moreb and hotel on your doorstep. We visited both the Yorkshire Dales and The Lakes so the village is very well situated. Would we go back?... Yes! Hide

Cottage is immaculately clean with excellent facilities. You will not need to bring anything with you! The wood burner in the lounge heats the whole of the Cottage up and the kitchen is well stocked with every cooking utensil you could ever need. We would have liked to stay longer to explore more of the area, particularly as the weather was so beauRead moretiful. It's also within walking distance of a couple of great pubs, although, sadly one of them was closed! Never mind... we'll be back again for more Hide

Good location for Dales and Lakes. Lots of local walks. Settle to Carlisle railway close. One lovely pub/restaurant (Black Swan) and one that wasnt so good on our visit (Kings Head). Spotlessly clean inside but a little unkempt in the patio area. Comfy beds, good strong shower. Would return if in this area.
