Property code: OC-T27977

Rest and recharge in this rural retreat in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Sleeping four guests and one canine buddy, the property is ideal for small families and couples. There are some fabulous walks nearby to explore with your waggy-tailed pal, including the long-distance Dales Way and the summit of Buckden Pike. In the evenings, enjoy al fresco meals whilst admiring the uninterrupted vistas across the Dales.

The single-storey, converted chapel still retains many of its original features, including the elegant arched windows and exposed stonework, and has been tastefully decorated and furnished to complement the period of the property. The welcoming lounge/diner is a gorgeous place to relax after a long dog walk, with comfortable seating arranged around a wood burner-effect electric fire and a table for sharing mealtimes together. From here, move through to the bespoke kitchen, with everything you need to cater for the group. Down three steps is a handy cloakroom, where you can store all your dog-walking gear. The holiday home has two delightful bedrooms and a stylish family bathroom. Outside, a vast, enclosed garden awaits, with far-reaching views and furniture for al fresco dining.

Immerse yourself in nature in the quaint village of Starbotton. Surrounded by rolling countryside, the area is a paradise for walkers and your hairy companion, with beautiful routes following the River Wharfe. After an exhilarating hike, refuel in the charming village pub. The picturesque village of Grassington is 9 miles away and has a great range of woof-welcoming shops and eateries. Further afield, enjoy doggy days out at Malham Cove (15 miles) - featured in the Harry Potter films - and Bolton Abbey (20 miles).

Excellent well furnished and very comfortable cottage. Great location for walking in the Dales. Local pub only 2 mins walk and serves very good food. We ate there on 5 nights!. Super dog washing mat and hose in back garden and front garden nice and secure. Would highly recommend.

Really enjoyed our week in this clean and comfortable cottage. We felt welcome and there was thoughtful provision for the dog. Plenty of walking close by and an excellent pub just round the corner. We would certainly stay again.

A lovely property in a beautiful location. Quiet, even though it is directly next to the road. Well appointed and comfortable. Had a lovely meal at the Fox and Hounds just around the corner.

If you're looking for a base in The Yorkshire Dales, look no further. Chapel Cottage is comfortable in every way and located not too remotely but right at the heart of one of the most beautiful areas of The Dales.
