Ivy Cottage is a wonderfully characterful terraced cottage set in the heart of the postcard-pretty village of West Burton in North Yorkshire.
Ideal for friends or families, it blends traditional features with warm, inviting spaces that feel instantly welcoming.
To the front, a railed garden with a bench provides the perfect spot to sit and watch village life unfold on the green, soaking up the timeless atmosphere of this much-loved Dales village.
Inside, a generous hallway leads to the main living areas.
At the front of the cottage, both the lounge and the dining room enjoy lovely outlooks over the green, each enhanced by window seats that invite you to pause and take in the view.
The lounge centres around a tiled fireplace, creating a snug yet sociable place to gather, while the dining room is full of character, with a stone fireplace, beamed ceiling and parquet flooring adding to its charm.
To the rear, the well-equipped kitchen opens out onto a south facing patio edged with rockery borders and a small lawn, offering a peaceful space for outdoor meals or a quiet moment with a book.
A useful utility area and cloakroom complete the ground floor.
An attractive staircase leads up to a light-filled half-landing, where a large window frames views across the garden and gives access to a shower room, before continuing to the main landing leading to 3 bedrooms and the bathroom.

The family bedroom combines a king-size bed with additional single beds, while a further twin room and a bunk room provide flexible accommodation.
Two of the bedrooms look out over the village green, allowing you to wake up to one of West Burton’s most charming views.
Throughout the cottage, original details such as exposed beams and wide-batten doors give a real sense of history and place.
West Burton itself is a delight to explore, with a village shop, the welcoming Fox and Hounds pub, and well-trodden paths leading to the beautiful Cauldron Falls.
Nearby Leyburn and Hawes offer independent shops, tearooms and local markets, while Aysgarth Falls makes a rewarding day out.
Beyond the village, the Yorkshire Dales National Park opens up a landscape of rolling hills, limestone scenery and endless walking routes.
Ivy Cottage offers a memorable base from which to enjoy the beauty and character of this special part of North Yorkshire.
