A traditionally-styled cottage set in the picturesque market town of Middleham, within 10 miles of Jervaulx Abbey, Aysgarth Falls and the Forbidden Corner. Featuring an immaculate sitting room, quaint dining hall and attractive courtyard garden, it’s well-suited to small families or couples with room for two dogs seeking to immerse themselves in the area’s natural and cultural attractions.

Located in the heart of Middleham’s vibrant market square, this charming cottage enjoys plenty of space and naturally-lit rooms adorned with traditional rustic furnishings. The sitting room has a real wow factor, with its comfortable seating, wood burner and original artwork sure to catch the eye. The dining hall is only a few paw prints away and feeds in nicely to the narrow modern kitchen opposite, which in turn leads out into the courtyard garden. An inviting king-size bedroom and an en-suite twin bedroom with exposed wooden beams are joined by a family bathroom on the first floor. The enclosed courtyard garden offers an outhouse for kit storage and is an enviable sanctuary for morning coffees and alfresco fish suppers.

Middleham’s picturesque cobbled streets have independent shops and dog-friendly pubs, walks and trails, and it’s a similar story at Leyburn (2 miles). The view from atop Penhill (7 miles) is worth the journey on its own, and dogs are welcome to wander the grounds of Jervaulx Abbey, Aysgarth Falls and the Forbidden Corner, the latter a four-acre garden home to a labyrinth of tunnels and follies (all within 10 miles).

I would not hesitate to recommend this gorgeous cottage in Middleham that has several Choices of where to eat or have a wee drink. Loved spending time in front of the wood burner with a book in one hand and a glass of wine in the other.

Lovely comfortable cottage in a great location. Lovely and warm after a day our exploring. Nice touch with a jar of doggie treats which my Labrador did her best to work her way through! We took our own large crate and plenty of room in dining room to keep it. Cottage much larger than it looks in the pictures. A great holiday thank you

Comfortable beds, spotless bed linen. When we needed to turn the heating up it reacted very quickly and the cottage was always warm enough. Always plenty of hot water for showers etc. Close to pub, (good pub food), well stocked shop and lovely walks to enjoy the views and to watch the horses going by to the gallops. The kitchen is narrow so can onlRead morey accommodate one or two at a time. The stairs to the top floor are steep. Hide

This was a lovely well equipped cottage, very comfortable and we enjoyed our stay very much. Middleham is nicely located for days out in all directions for the dales and moors. Wonderful walks at the back of the castle that go for miles so perfect for the dogs and walkers a like. You can watch the race horses go out for their daily gallop from the Read morefront windows, with fab window seats in both bedrooms. Hide

We had a lovely week at Bow Cottage. Very comfortable and welll equipped and right in the centre of the town within 50 M of the chip shop and the best pub (Richard 3rd). Nothing to fault and highly likely we will return.

Bow Cottage is a lovely homely quaint cottage in Middleham. Great position overlooking the square, especially when the horses are going by in a morning! Close to the pubs and the cafe makes a great breakfast! Highly recommended a stay here and we will be returning again in the summer
