About this property
West Burton 3 miles.
A magnificent, detached listed farmhouse, with panoramic views over seventeen acres of private grounds, with its own babbling brook, in the picturesque Walden Valley, 3 miles from the village of West Burton. Full of immense character and charm, with a range cooker, exposed beams and antique furnishings, underfloor heating and fires in the sitting and dining rooms make this property a fabulous cosy retreat. Enjoy beautiful walks through the grounds, down the valley to West Burton, or go on a sightseeing tour of the famous Dales villages of Buckden, Kettlewell, Hawes and Leyburn to name but a few. An ideal base for a traditional Dales holiday.
The lovely town of West Burton, nestled in a hollow of the little-known Walden Valley, is a wonderful location for a peaceful holiday. This charming, ancient village is situated in beautiful countryside in the heart of Wensleydale. Composed of old stone cottages surrounding the famous broad village green, this is a popular retreat amongst walkers looking to enjoy the Dales with their wonderful views and small but spectacular Cauldron Falls - a feature that was captured about by the artist, J M W Turner. Also fringing the green is a traditional village pub which serves good food, whilst there is an excellent range of amenities in the nearby market towns of Hawes and Leyburn.
