3 Bed in Barden (oc-s33752)

Discover some of the best walks in the Dales from this idyllic farm cottage. It’s just 200 metres across meadows from the River Wharfe – cross the water at nearby Barden Bridge to join the Dales Way, or stroll down the road a little further south to find the ruins of Barden Tower, one of six hunting lodges on the Bolton Abbey Estate. Deeper within the estate, The Strid is a notorious stretch of water in a wildlife-rich woodland, while 3 miles from your doorstep, you can explore the ancient priory church and ruins. A similar distance north, Parcevall Hall has a renowned plantsman’s garden that rises up a hillside and offers wonderful views in every direction. En route, the village of Appletreewick (2.5 miles) is full of charm and has two welcoming inns. Less than 7 miles away, Grassington is home to the National Park Visitor Centre and offers a fine choice of shops, eateries and a regular farmers’ market.

Serving up an authentic taste of country life, this characterful cottage welcomes guests straight into a beautiful, relaxing social space. Work your culinary magic in the farmhouse-style kitchen, then take a seat at the dining suite to eat and discuss your next day’s adventures. One step up from here, the living room has a choice of comfortable sofas and a TV. Light the wood burner for added ambience after dark; exposed timbers bring more warm tones to this open-plan area. The cottage has two bathrooms – both on the ground floor. When you’re ready to retire for the night, there are three enchanting bedrooms; two of which are on the ground floor - king-size and a twin room. Ancient beams are an attractive feature on the lovely landing, which is open to one of the king-sized bedrooms and overlooks the lounge area. The remaining king-size bedroom can be found on the first floor.

Beautiful stone barns and a traditional farmyard scene surround you; there’s an allocated parking area for up to three cars so you can unload luggage at a leisurely pace. Step through the garden gate and a wood-fired hot tub vies for attention with the valley views beyond. There’s outdoor dining furniture on the patio, so you can enjoy food and drinks with views of the wooded hillsides beyond. Adding peace of mind for pet owners, there’s an enclosed field where they can be exercised away from the resident livestock – do ask the farmer if you’d like the chance to meet the animals!
