Cottage to rent with a log fire / woodburner in Kettlewell

Accommodation details

Take the family along for a stay at this beautiful old cottage in Litton, a sweet village with a local green set within stunning scenery. Nearby you can go hiking, cycling and rock climbing in the rolling hills and pretty river valleys of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, and visit local beauty spots like Malham Cove (10 miles) and Victoria Cave (12 miles).

Sleeping four guests over its two bedrooms, this luxury period cottage is wonderful for a group of outdoorsy folks, or two couples holidaying together. Once you've admired the charming exterior of this 1700s terraced home, step inside to a homely interior with a rustic decor. With walls painted white, plenty of exposed stone and wooden ceiling beams, it feels ultra cosy and welcoming.

Downstairs, the elegant lounge features a lovely stone fireplace and comfy sofas for relaxing in the evenings. An impressive stone archway connects the lounge with the kitchen-diner, which is all decked out with attractive wooden units plus a circular table for sitting down for meals. When day tuns to night, choose from an attractive king-size bedroom and a twin room, both served by their own shower rooms for your comfort and convenience.

In good weather, head outside and soak up the stunning views from the lawned garden, enhanced with a hot or cold beverage. You'll have a friendly pub 150 metres away and many wonderful walking and cycling trails starting from your doorstep. For a leisurely afternoon out, walk along the River Skirfare to nearby Arncliffe (2.5 miles).

The market town of Settle (12 miles) has a great deal to offer, including welcoming restaurants, a museum, a swimming pool, independent shops and a bustling market every Tuesday. Train fans can also join the Settle-to-Carlisle railway line here for a scenic trip taking in iconic sights like the Ribblehead Viaduct (19.5 miles).
