The property
An outstanding, stone-built, semi-detached cottage, a former gatehouse located just off the main market square in Middleham, famous for its horse racing connections. Bright and stylish throughout, this fully renovated Middleham cottage is perfect for a romantic holiday or family break. With an unusual but effective upside down layout, this Dales cottage features a spacious first floor sitting room with lovely views, a cosy woodburner and solid wood floor, making it a cosy, homely space to watch the changing seasons outside, whilst tucked up in front of the roaring fire. The ground floor boasts a beautiful modern kitchen with dining area, and two delightful bedrooms, both with stylish en-suite facilities. This is a first-class Middleham holiday home for those wishing to get away from it all and enjoy fine country living and beautiful walks, including the nearby Gallops and Penhill. The amenities of Middleham are on your doorstep, and include excellent old pubs and local restaurants, as well as a well-stocked general store, and the historic castle, just a two-minute walk. The nearby village of West Witton boasts an award-winning gastropub and is well worth a visit. Explore nearby Bolton Castle where Mary Queen of Scots was held captive, visit the famous Aysgarth Falls or take a ride on the Wensleydale Railway. A superb Middleham cottage, ideal for a romantic break, a touring base to explore Wensleydale, or somewhere to just relax and enjoy the many delights of this ever-popular area.
