Set a tail wagging as you wander through the stunning scenery of Nidderdale. This attractive holiday home for up to four guests at Dacre Bank, 4.5 miles from Pateley Bridge, is set within the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, less than 10 miles from the Yorkshire Dales. Take your happy hound out to discover idyllic dog-walking country and then return to the luxurious stone conversion to relax together in its elegant interior or its delightful courtyard garden, which has far-reaching views.
Enter to find the heart of the holiday home is its stylish open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Let your furry pal settle down to doze in here while you enjoy the Smart TV or listen to your favourite band via the iPod dock. The chic kitchen has everything you need to whip up tasty meals, as well as to wash and dry damp doggy towels. There’s a WC at ground-floor level too. Then head upstairs to both of your beautiful bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom and a Smart TV. Call your four-legged friend out into the fresh Yorkshire air when he awakes. Take breakfast out in the garden on fine days and fire up the BBQ when you return from long walks.
There are numerous other walks from your front door; pack a few doggy treats and head off together to Brimham Rocks, an unusual collection of natural rock formations 2.5 miles away, which is managed by the National Trust. You can make this into an 8-mile circular walk, taking in rivers woods and moors. Head to Harrogate and visit Valley Gardens, 11 miles away, where your pup can wander with you on a lead. Or venture about 6 miles to the Gouthwaite Reservoir, where you can stretch his legs further with a walk all the way around the water.
