The property

Roofstones Cottage is situated in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park and is an idyllic tranquil escape for families or a group of friends seeking to be enveloped in the captivating views of The Yorkshire Dales.

A building bursting with history as an old barn conversion, the property has been tastefully-restored with glimpses of its past with original stone walls, wooden beams, and high ceilings.

Approached by a winding driveway with off-road parking for three cars, it will make the transition into your countryside escape hassle-free.

Stepping inside, you will be delighted by the characterful, traditional interior and warm tones, giving it a homely feel from the minute you put your bags down and feet up.

Curl up in the spacious sitting room with your favourite show on the Smart TV and the woodburning stove creating ambiance, while the chef cooks up a storm in the kitchen.

With a dining table seating six, and a couch to keep the chef company, it is a real social hub of the property.

When the sun is shining, take the dinner party natter into the garden for a spot of alfresco-style dining amidst the occasional bird song.

If you’re seeking some friendly competition, spend your evening in the games room, with a pool table, darts, and board games bound to create laughter and memories.

When sleep calls, there are three tastefully-presented bedrooms; One king-size, a double, and a twin, all boasting traditional decor carrying through the property's characterful feel, as well as infinite views of the serene countryside overlooking Wensleydale Fells, the River Ure so you can get ready in privacy.

If you can tear yourself away, there are two free fishing passes available for the daring guest to this river, which is just a short meander across the adjacent field.

A short stroll will bring you to the picture-postcard market town of Hawes, home to the iconic Wensleydale Creamery for a cheese and wine evening, Ropemakers Centre, as well as independent restaurants, cafes, and traditional pubs serving local produce, as well as boutiques to grab a souvenir.

About the location

HAWES

Leyburn 16 miles.

Hawes is a popular market town in the Richmondshire district of North Yorkshire and is regarded as one of the honeypot tourist attractions of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Standing between Buttertubs and Fleet Moss, the town is an excellent centre for walking and touring Wensleydale and the adjoining dales of Swaledale, Cotterdale, Dentdale, Garsdale, Wharfedale and Chapel-le-Dale. Take a walk around the Hawes Town Trail, Millennium Walk, Pennine Way or along the River Ure, which is nearby. In 1998 Hawes was awarded the English Tourist Board Silver Award for the "Best Day Trip Out". Modern traffic has long replaced coaches and horse drawn wagons along its narrow streets, but market day (Tuesdays) in Hawes is as busy as ever, with a farmers’ auction attracting sheep farmers from all over the north of England. Traditional shops, cafés and inns now cater for a variety of Dales visitors as well as the local community. The award-winning Wensleydale Creamery, made famous by the animated Wallace and Grommit films, is now open to visitors so that they can see the famous cheese being made and sample the end product in a welcoming café. In the old station yard you will find the busy National Park Centre and Dales Countryside Museum. The Museum is home to the magnificent collection of Dales artefacts by the two great Dales historians and writers, Marie Hartley and Joan Ingilby.
