The cottage
An outstanding stone-built, mid-terrace cottage in the lovely Dales village of Hetton, four miles from Skipton and Grassington.
This is a delightful cottage, located on a quiet lane with wonderful views of the surrounding Dales countryside.
Lovingly furnished by the current owner, this cottage provides an ideal holiday home to get together and enjoy this beautiful corner of the Yorkshire Dales National Park.
Full of character and charm at every turn, this cottage has been furnished and styled in perfect keeping with the original features to create a lovely homely feel throughout.
Wide open stairs lead from the hall into the spacious sitting room with cosy open fire, a beamed ceiling and feature windows with delightful views across the nearby meadow and surrounding fells.
This cottage also offers three lovely bedrooms, a first-class bathroom, a dining room and a well-equipped kitchen.
Outside, there are mature well stocked gardens to both front and rear, and they provide a perfect location for relaxing after a hard day out on the local fells.
With the stunning Dales landscapes right on your doorstep, this cottage offers peace and seclusion but is perfectly positioned to explore the local attractions including the nearby historic market town of Skipton, known as 'The Gateway to the Dales' and the equally popular Grassington, with its beautiful old cobbled square.
Just a minute's walk is The Angel, an award-winning gastropub featured in the TV series 'The Trip', the final tempting detail of this cottage, whose quality accommodation and superb location make it a wonderful base for family and friends.
About the location
HETTON
Skipton 4 miles; Grassington 4 miles.
Hetton, along with its near neighbour Rylstone is one of the most popular villages in the upper Wharfedale community. The local Women’s Institute was responsible for the famous charity calendar that later became a box office hit film 'Calendar Girls'. The stone houses clustered along the single street date from the 17th and 18th Century with many outstanding family homes and a scattering of traditional old farmsteads. A thriving small and friendly community is served by the Angel Inn, an award winning Gastro Pub with a wide reputation for outstanding beers and food, and full of atmosphere and charm with oak beams, nooks, crannies and crackling log fires. Close to Linton Falls on the River Wharfe, this is a superb walking area, with many paths to other villages, and easy access to the limestone fells. Down dale is the haunting Abbey ruins and Priory at Bolton Abbey, or the elegant town of Ilkley, overlooked by the famous Ilkley Moor. Up dale are Grassington, Kettlewell and Buckden, with spectacular limestone scenery. Hetton is a great base for exploring the local area with the market town of Skipton and its medieval castle a short drive away, and many other historic places including Bronte Country, Castle Howard, the elegant spa town of Harrogate, racing at Ripon, the majestic medieval city of York and the stunning Lake District within easy motoring distance.
