  • "We loved the house & it was great to have three double bedrooms for three friends."

    It’s also perfectly situated for Reeth & many walks around. I would just like to say that the hot water was very hot & would worry about children using it. Also we would have liked a small pan for egg boiling.

  • "We really enjoyed our stay at Harker View Cottage."

    The cottage is spacious and comfortable. The cottage is located within Reeth, and its hard to imagine a more idyllic Dales village. We were fortunate that our visit coincided with the most summery weather of 2024, even though we stayed in mid-September. Absolutely fabulous!

    I’m so pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay at the cottage and that the weather was so good for you, Reeth is all the more beautiful when the sun is shining! Hopefully we can welcome you back to the cottage in the future. Property Owner

  • "Lovely property."

    Felt really at home. Bathrooms were a bit cold, the heaters weren't on, and the bedroom I slept in, the heater wasn't working. It's usually OK this time of year, but was an unusually cold week. Reeth itself is fantastic. We can recommend The Buck Inn. Lovely food and very friendly. Also The Copper Kettle. Good food, coffee and friendly staff. Great bakery too. Great area for walks.

    Hello, thank you for taking the time to write a review and I’m really pleased to hear you enjoyed the property and Reeth. The radiators have individual control panels where you can turn them up/down/off, there are instructions in the guestbook. Sorry you didn’t get in touch with Sykes as we could have accessed the heating remotely for you during your stay and rectified the issue. We hope to welcome you back to cottage again. Thank you.

  • "Enjoyed our stay and a great location for what we wanted."

    Pots and pans for cooking were limited compared to many other places we've stayed. Would also be great if there was a shower over the bath upstairs.

    Thank you for your feedback and really pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

  • "Very clean cottage, cosy, cottage."

    Downside is the parking and not being able to unload, having a neighbour shout at you. We also had to drag the previous occupants bins, rubbish through the house as no access via back. Needs a shower upstairs and a bigger one down, more powerful. Location great and for a short stay it did the job.

    Thank you for your comments, I am glad you found the cottage cosy and clean. Regarding parking, there is roadside parking just around the corner from where you can unload and park all day/night free of charge. There is also lots of parking in the green, a 2 minute walk from the cottage. If you are referring to the external bins, we do have a procedure in place for them to be collected from around the back so you did not need to drag them through the house. I will update the guest information book to ensure this is 100% clear. We feel that most guests like to have the option of either a shower or a relaxing bath, therefore both options are available at the property. Property Owner

About the location

REETH

Leyburn 8 miles; Richmond 11 miles; Barnard Castle 15 miles; Kirkby Stephen 22 miles.

The pretty, ever-popular village of Reeth rests at the northern tip of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, where Arkengarthdale and Swaledale meet, nestled between Calver Hill, Fremington Edge and Harkerside. An Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with lovely rolling hills and spectacular views, Reeth boasts a colourful history as it was originally a Saxon settlement, and has also been known as a lead mining town and a centre for hand knitting throughout its time. Both trades are proudly featured in the Swaledale Museum, located alongside a good range of shops, tea rooms and restaurants. For a quaint little community, Reeth is well-served by traditional inns, with three to choose from, including the lovely Buck Hotel, whitewashed like so many of the 18th century cottages huddled around the triangular village green. The historic market towns of Richmond and Leyburn are also within easy reach, offering a further selection of amenities. Askrigg is just a short drive away, as well as Aysgarth Falls, Semerwater and Hardraw Force (England's highest single drop waterfall at 99ft). Reeth offers a fantastic base for exploring North Yorkshire's beautiful, sweeping countryside, whether you choose to discover the caves, cliffs, waterfalls or the plethora of walking and cycling routes that circle this vibrant and varied landscape.
