Reeth Cottages
For a truly relaxing holiday amid beautifully unspoilt
countryside, the lovely little village of Reeth nestles where
Arkengarthdale and Swaledale meet.
Imagine a traditional village green lined with attractive stone
houses, inviting pubs, cosy tearooms and ice-cream parlours, as
well as galleries and workshops selling specialist art and crafts.
From handcrafted furniture to decorative glass, browsing for a
special keepsake is an absolute pleasure. There's a market
every Friday and also the Swaledale Folk Museum, offering a
fascinating insight into the region's past.

Park
Stretch those legs along the Coast to Coast Walk, brainchild of
writer and hill walker, Alfred Wainwright. The route passes through
Reeth and attracts walkers from near and far. Follow the
'Corpse Way', an ancient 16-mile coffin path. Or test your
stamina and climb the fells of Lovely Seat, Addlebrough or Great
Shunner, all promising fantastic views from the top.
If you're after a gentler, child-friendly option, head down
to the Swing Bridge for leisurely strolls along the river, perhaps
stopping off at the village playground. Families might also like to
note the Reeth Show in August, a traditional agricultural event and
great day out for all ages, with a wide variety of entertainment -
judging livestock, vintage cars, delicious local produce and lots
more.
Our Reeth cottages are also within a short
drive of a number of attractive towns and interesting sights -
Leyburn, Hawes, Barnard Castle and Richmond to name but a few.
