Over 200 years old, this characterful Grade 2 listed terraced cottage is centrally located in the town of Richmond.

The cottage is full of charm with quirky rooms and period features and is in close proximity to the vibrant market square.

Set over three floors, the upstairs provides two inviting double bedrooms and third single bedroom, ideal for families or couples.

On entering the cottage there is a small entrance hall to store coats and shoes, which then takes you through the double doors into the generously sized sitting and dining room.

The sitting room is home to a wood burning stove and exposed ceiling beams that set for a cosy evening relaxing in the comfortable sofa.

The dining area has ample space to seat up to six people.The modern kitchen features a modern induction hob, oven, dishwasher, fridge-freezer and microwave as well as well-stocked kitchen ideal for cooking a family meal.

The first floor is home to a king-size double bedroom, boasting neutral décor and matching oak furniture, along with delightful countryside views.

The super-king size double bedroom is decorated to a similar standard with original fireplace.

This room can also be reconfigured as a generous twin bedroom.

For the children or extra guests, the single bedroom is a relaxing place to unwind and simply cosy up and admire the views of the castle before you sleep.

On the landing you will find a large floor-to-ceiling map of the area, ideal for planning your adventures for the week.

The cottage boasts a lovely family bathroom with extra-wide bath with shower and views across the rooftops of Richmond.

About the location

RICHMOND

Barnard Castle 10 miles; Leyburn 12 miles.

Situated at the entrance to Swaledale, the ancient market town of Richmond stands on a prominent hilltop site to the north of the River Swale. Its cobbled streets and narrow alleys or 'wynds' enshrine over nine centuries of busy history and unique character. The town grew up around its castle, a Norman fortress dating back to 1071, famously situated high above the river - indeed the name Richmond is derived from 'Riche-mont' meaning 'strong hill'. Today there are wonderful walks to be enjoyed such as the Castle Walk - a dramatic terrace walk beneath the castle walls - or alternatively walk alongside the River Swale where there are parks, safe paddling areas and small waterfalls to enjoy. Within the town, narrow streets and alleys radiate from the cobbled Market Place (which has a weekly market and monthly farmers’ market) and there are numerous shops, pubs and restaurants to enjoy. The town flourished in the 18th and 19th centuries and the resulting elegant Georgian architecture lines many of the old streets. The Georgian Theatre is one of the oldest surviving theatres in the country with visitors enjoying its regular productions all year round.
