Outside, the enclosed garden is a real highlight, with outdoor seating perfect for enjoying your morning coffee, an evening tipple or just for star gazing as The Yorkshire Dales is home to some of the darkest skies in the country, where it’s possible to see the Milky Way, planets, meteors and even the Northern Lights. The wood-burning fire pit is perfect for such evenings under the stars. And with two well-behaved pets welcome, the whole family can enjoy this idyllic retreat.

Nearby, Janet’s Foss waterfall and Gordale Scar offer more awe-inspiring scenery, all within walking distance. Malham Tarn, England’s highest Lake, is a must too.

Families will enjoy a day out at Thornton Hall Country Park, offering hands-on animal experiences, play areas and seasonal events. Or head to Grassington, a postcard-perfect village known for its quaint streets and local pubs and as the filming location for All Creatures Great and Small.
