Book a scenic stay with your partner and furry friends at this delightful cottage located within the Yorkshire Dales National Park – wonderful for pretty dog walks through outstanding scenery taking in windswept hills and heather-covered moors. Nearby spots like Bowber Head Farm Nature Reserve (2 miles) and Wild Boar Fell (7.5 miles) are excellent for investigating with curious pets, while the local country pub serving food (1 mile) is handy for evening meals when you’re too holidayed out to cook dinner.

This stylish accommodation has an open-plan living area with a kitchen, dining table and a corner sofa for snuggling up after a long day out. A stone floor, vaulted ceiling and charming feature beams create a cosy, rustic appearance. The king-sized bedroom provides the perfect spot for a restful night’s sleep – this leads through to a bathroom with a shower over bath, so you can have a quick wash or indulge in a luxurious soak. Outside, relax with your pet in the private rear garden or take a stroll through the delightful shared Victorian garden at the front of the property, which also includes a shared patio area with seating.

This holiday dwelling is in an excellent spot between two pretty villages – Ravenstonedale (3 miles) and Kirkby Stephen (6 miles). Nearby you can take your canine friends on a lead around the ruins of Pendragon Castle (4.5 miles), famous for its links to the legend of King Arthur. For more outdoor fun, head to Smardale Gill Nature Reserve (6 miles) where your dogs will love leading the way along a former railway line while you admire the stunning viaduct and spot wildlife like birds and butterflies.

The cottage was fitted to a very high standard; the instructions left for us were explicit and easy to follow. The peace and sounds of the countryside were a delight, as were the gardens that we were free to use. Beautiful walks all around. The Dales and local towns were easy to find and explore.
