Nestled in Reeth, this attractive cottage for $304 per night is a fantastic choice for your next break. Union Farm Cottage, a beautiful, detached, barn conversion which has been completely renovated to offer luxury self-catering holiday accommodation for up to 6 guests and 2 well behaved dogs. It is a wonderful holiday home to start your adventures in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. This Dales cottage is situated in an idyllic location down a quiet, private drive within, yet on the outskirts of, the popular village of Reeth in Swaledale on the grounds of a working farm. Not many cottages in Reeth can offer the space and seclusion that this holiday home boasts, with stunning, uninterrupted views of Fremington Edge and Harkerside, yet still only a few minutes walk to the gorgeous Village Green and local amenities such as pubs, cafes shops and ice cream parlour. This stunning barn conversion has been sympathetically modernised. Downstairs is spacious, light and airy with an open plan living space, contemporary kitchen and dining area, utility, cloakroom. In addition, there is a downstairs double bedroom with ensuite shower room. The kitchen / dining area is stunning with large glass patio doors to bring the outside in, also offering views across the farmland and beyond to Harkerside. The living area seats 6 on comfortable seating with a large, modern wood burner adding warmth and charm and a 43inch smart TV for entertainment. The cottage is heated throughout via eco-friendly ground source underfloor heating and offers free WiFi. Upstairs, the two spacious bedrooms are full of dales charm, boasting high vaulted ceilings with exposed oak beams, both with their own ensuite shower room. The master bedroom also has a wall mounted flat screen smart TV. Due to the layout and the combination of bedrooms both upstairs and on the ground floor, this holiday home suits a variety of guests from large families, to family’s holidaying with grandparents (who perhaps might appreciate a ground floor bedroom and shower room) or couples holidaying together as each room has its own ensuite. Outside, the cottage is fully enclosed within its own private grounds. There is a large parking area for 4 to 5 cars, a shed for secure bike storage and a feature water well – all surrounded by fence and private gate. The south facing garden area is also enclosed behind a traditional Yorkshire stone wall and iron gate, with wooden garden furniture for alfresco dining or simply to enjoy a morning coffee or evening wine. This holiday cottage is ideal for those who enjoy walking and cycling in the amazing Dales countryside. There are multiple walks and bike routes from the door. You can choose from gentle riverside strolls along the River Swale or the Arkle Beck to more challenging hikes up Fremington Edge or Calver Hill and more.

The Swale Trail starts just up the road from the cottage. It is a purpose built, unsurfaced path which starts at Grinton and runs a 12-mile route up dale to Keld.
