Photos and Description of this Harrogate holiday cottage 2 Bedrooms, sleeps 4-6

Attractive cottage in a secret meadow only a few moments’ walk from Masham Market Square (and the pubs!) in the Yorkshire Dales. The cottage is simply but comfortably furnished with a new bathroom and good quality furniture. Guests are welcome to use the huge garden which fronts onto the River Ure (with a fablous secret swimming spot), as well as relax in our outdoor hot tub. There are masses of beams, open fireplace, quirky details and plenty of books, games to play and jigsaws to complete. This is an ideal place to come to relax, recuperate and feel re-inspired. You can choose to be quiet and contemplative, indulge your artistic streak, go out for bracing walks in awe-inspiring countryside or while away the hours in one of Masham’s excellent pubs. Pets more than welcome. (Please, do not hesitate to contact owner for website link with more pictures or further information).

Situated about 2 minutes walk down a track from Masham Market Square, just north of Ripon and in Lower Wensleydale. A brief drive into the Yorkshire Dales National Park and yet only a few miles off the A1/M1 so very accessible. Nearest train stations Northallerton or York. Very easy to reach York, Harrogate, Leeds, Durham or Hawes, Leyburn, Middleham and other Dales market towns. Masham has practically anything anyone could need. There are great pubs, all serving food as well as two excellent restaurants, several tea shops, delicatessens, old-fashioned sweet shops, fish and chip shop, galleries, co-op, newsagent, and post office. The children’s play area and tennis courts are minutes’ walk away. Beautiful church with Saxon cross and great river walks. Nearby attractions include haunted castles, Druids Temple, historic houses, old abbeys, masses of walks, cycle tracks, riding stables, fishing. Too many outings and treats to mention so we've compiled three big folders of information.

Notes: This is a place to come to relax, to talk to each other, to enjoy the outdoors and get away from the hustle and bustle of your normal life. TV reception is lousy so there isn't a TV but we do provide lots of interesting books, games, jigsaws and some quirky features that you'll only discover once you're here. An ideal base from which to explore the Dales but we find most people just flop about the garden or venture as far as the pubs!

Lovely peaceful converted mill cottage

travelmum Leicester, England
Review Submitted: June 3, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
We stayed here for 4 nights at the end of May (half-term)week with our two children ages 12 and 10. We chose it because of its location which is right on the edge of the Dales, but close enough to the A1/M. Our children had to revise for their end of year exams and so it was the perfect place with no t.v., but a hot-tub for us all to enjoy. We really didn't miss the t.v. at all and after a long day out with plenty to see. The large bedrooms had really comfortable beds with great sheets and duvets. The bathroom always had plenty of hot water. The open-fire in the living room was great with plenty of logs available. The only down-side was that the kitchen is a little out-dated, the cooker worked well, but could do with up-dating and a microwave would have been helpful. The cottage is full of beams and is very pretty with nice furniture. Susan our host left a 'welcome pack' for our arrival which consisted of bread, milk, butter and eggs which was very useful and great considering we arrived late. Susan was very helpful in answering all my questions regarding the area, she gave some very good tips. The places we would recommend to visit are, The Forbidden Corner (never been anywhere like it), you have to pre-book. The children loved it. How Stean Gorge is a world heritage site and is lovely to see. Brimham Rocks was a great place to go with the children, really interesting rock formations, great place for them to climb and explore. Jervaulx Abbey is also well worth visiting. The town of Hawes is lovely to see with its Wensleydale Cheese Factory. We loved the towns of Askrigg (All Creatures Great and Small),West Burton,Grassington,Kettlewell (Caldendar Girls),Pateley Bridge,Middleham(Richard III castle) Aysgarth Falls is lovely too. Masham itself is lovely with a huge square and lots of lovely shops. Suncatchers Cafe was great for lunch. The Saturday market was great for fresh fruit and veg. and the local butchers shop had great bacon, eggs and sasauges, and the bakery is good for your daily bread.The Co-op is handy too. We visited Harrogate on the way back home and went to Bettys Cafe for lunch which was great,but a little pricey for what you get. But that didn't stop us going to the one at Ilkley later on for Afternoon Tea! Think we might sign up for the Cookery School! The Bettys in Harrogate is much better than the one in Ilkley. Well we had a great short break and we would definitely stay at this cottage again and would recommended it to others.

Break in Masham

Nicki W Bradford
Review Submitted: November 4, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008
The communication between the owners and ourselves before we travelled was very good. Any questions we asked were answered and we were given some good ideas and information regarding the property and the area.
When we arrived we were welcomed by the owner (and the dog, Daisy) and were shown where things like the fire wood was kept and where and how to use the hot tub. (This was very welcoming after a walk during the day)
The property was very clean and tidy. The bedrooms were very spacious and comfortable. The quilts of the bed were very fluffy and warm. There were radiators in all the rooms and so it was nice and warm. We especially liked the fact that we could light the log fire and this made the lounge very cosy in the evenings. The fact that there was no TV was definately a plus point. There was a selection of games to play, we also took a couple of our own. There were plenty of leaflets on different places to see and visit in the area.
A very enjoyable break!

Excellent cottage

janec Cumbria
Review Submitted: January 15, 2008 Date of Stay: January 2008
I spent my 40th birthday weekend here with my husband and parents (and their dog). January is not the best time to be 40 but staying here was so relaxing that I hardly noticed!!
The cottage is very clean and just as described. Loads of character - just up my street...
Both rooms had comfy beds and the furniture etc was of a nice quality. The open fire was really warm and cosy. Logs and wood were included. There is also central heating and loads of hot water.
We didn't miss the TV one bit as it always rubbish anyway! We spent our time in the pubs, restaurants, the auction house at Leyburn and walking. We ate at The King's Head which was excellent, the Blue Lion at East Witton which was a higher standard and more money for less food but VERY tasty and excellent service - nice for a special occasion, and at The Bay Horse which was tasty pub food and v friendly staff.
The cottage is EASY walking distance to the square (takes a couple of minutes but don't do it in heels!!)
There is a river nearby so I suppose parents might want to consider that .....
The owners were great - left us to our own devices but were there if we needed them.
I would definitely visit again and would be happy to recommend to others.
Don't forget to take your slippers - the stone/wood floors are lovely but cold on your feet!!
Owner's Response: We're glad you enjoyed your stay. We're gradually adding more and more games, jigsaws and books too, so we find most people don't miss the TV.

We'll pass on your positive comments to the Bay Horse and Kings Head too.

Thanks again
Susan
