Holiday rental cottage in Masham, North Yorkshire

Accommodation details

Discover the natural beauty of verdant Wensleydale when you stay at this cottage in Healey, near Masham. Sleeping six guests, and welcoming one dog, the three-bedroom cottage offers stylish, single-storey accommodation that is ideal for a family or group of friends. Set beside a Grade II-listed corn mill, which is home to the owners, the cottage benefits from a private garden, as well as access to picturesque, wider grounds. Let yourselves into the retreat via the sliding patio doors into the lounge.

This great expanse not only pulls the views of Colsterdale right inside, but also ensures the room, which features exposed stonework, feels bright and airy. Light the wood burner in here during the colder months, then settle down to spend cosy evenings in together, perhaps in front of a good film on the Smart TV.

When mealtimes beckon, wander through to the adjacent kitchen/diner. Prepare hearty feasts for your party in this beamed space, then dine together around the central table. At the end of each day away in Yorkshire, follow a few steps down to the sleeping quarters. These include two double bedrooms, one with an en-suite bathroom and beds that can also be arranged as singles by prior request.

There is also a twin bedroom and a family bathroom. Spend time out in your private garden, savouring the fresh air and sunshine and cooking out on the BBQ. Stroll around the shared grounds, taking the children to see the animals and play games in the football area. Head into Masham, 3 miles away, to stock up on local produce and dine out in a friendly pub.

Visit the National Trust's Fountains Abbey and Studley Royal Water Garden, 13.5 miles away. Plan a day out to Richmond, 17 miles away, where you can visit the Norman castle.
