About this property

A picturesque, 200-year old, stone-built, end-terrace cottage, overlooking the village green in the centre of the pretty Dales village of Bainbridge. Renovated to a very high standard, this charming property retains much original character, including a wealth of exposed beams and a stunning fireplace housing an inviting woodburner. Enjoy a relaxing afternoon in the pretty patio garden, or follow the many peaceful walks through the village and absorb the striking views. The village pub, just three minutes' walk away, offers fine ales and tasty food. This is a great location for walkers, from the castles at Bolton and Middleham, to Hardraw Force, England's highest single drop waterfall. It is a fantastic base from which to explore all that Wensleydale and Swaledale have to offer. A superb Yorkshire cottage, ideal for exploring the area, or as a romantic getaway.

Situated in truly beautiful countryside, the picturesque Wensleydale village of Bainbridge is just two miles from Askrigg - known to millions as ‘Darrowby' in James Herriot's "All Creatures Great and Small". Bainbridge is also just four miles from the market town of Hawes, home of the famous Wensleydale cheese, and boasts an extensive village green which comes with its own set of stocks. This excellent holiday location is ideal for walkers, and offers a great base from which to explore the popular areas of Wensleydale and Swaledale, taking in the Aysgarth Falls, Semerwater, and castles at both Bolton and Middleham. The highest single drop waterfall in England, Hardraw Force, is close by too and stands at an impressive 99ft!

    When I the owner she was very welcoming and helpful. If I am in the area again I would very much try to stay here. The location is ideal as it is central to the all areas to visit or walk.
