About this cottage rental

Dale Cottage is a beautifully renovated two-bedroom character cottage in West Burton, Wensleydale - officially the best kept village in Richmondshire 2015! Superbly positioned next to West Burton's beautiful village green, Dale Cottage is the perfect base to enjoy your Wensleydale holiday and explore The Dales.

This tastefully-renovated stone cottage has two bedrooms, sleeping three people. The rooms retain much of the cottage's original character, including exposed beams and a cosy fireplace.

Keep cosy with the wood burning stove and underfloor heating. In the warmer months you can make use of the patio furniture in the secluded garden. Excellent walking and cycling straight from the cottage, with the stunning Cauldron Falls just a couple of minutes walk away.

The newly-renovated master bedroom sleeps two, with a single bed in the second bedroom. A travel cot is available on request. The kitchen is fully-equipped with all of the usual facilities. High-speed fiberoptic WiFi Internet, Xbox, TV, DVD and Bluetooth audio ensure that you're as comfortable as possible with everything you might expect at home.

At the back of the cottage is a patio area and shared use of the garden. Patio furniture is provided in the summer for you to enjoy the dales air and local produce. There's also a dry secure storage area for bikes and fishing tackle.

West Burton is the ideal location to base your Yorkshire Dales holiday. Fantastic walking, mountain biking and cycling is available straight from the cottage door. Aysgarth Falls and Castle Bolton are within easy walking distance across some of the most impressive scenery in The Dales.

The village itself has a country pub serving traditional ales and pub food. The village shop, tea room, butcher and craft shops ensure that you've got everything you need right on the doorstep. West Burton also has one of the largest village greens in England, including football nets and a fully-equipped children's play area. Having no through-road West Burton is very peaceful and very safe for children.

Its central Wensleydale location brings many of the Yorkshire tourist attractions within easy driving distance. These include the towns of Hawes and Leyburn as well as the Wensleydale Railway, Hardraw Force, Wensleydale Creamery, Wensleydale Brewery, Middleham Castle and the Forbidden Corner.

A perfect escape! Beautifully presented and with everything you could possibly need. A great base to explore the beauty of the Dales from, in a very picturesque village. Comfy sofas, comfy bed, fantastic shower and the added bonus of a wood burner for those cosy nights in.

We enjoyed our stay here in West Burton. The cottage is well equipped and very comfortable. A great shower and very comfortable bed. The local pub is a short walk away and is very friendly and the food is good. A dryer would be an advantage but the clothes airer worked well. A convenient place to explore the Yorkshire Dales.

Dale Cottage is the perfect location in a charming village. It's a small 200-year old cottage with enough space for 3 people. The beds are comfy and the shower is excellent. The kitchen is small but very practical. The village itself is amazing, like a fairy tale, with beautiful houses, a pub, a village shop, lovely people and a vast choice of walking possibilities. The Dales are stunning and there,'s so much to see. We loved our stay and we will definitely be back. Thank you, Gareth and Lucy!
