Yorkshire cottages like Mill Cottage are a great rural retreat yet provide easy access to some of the most scenic areas in the north of England. Nearby is Swaledale, the most northerly of the main Yorkshire Dales. Whilst not the largest of dales, some say it is the prettiest and the charming and market town of Richmond guards its entrance. Barnard Castle is just a few miles away. This delightful market town with impressive old shop fronts, a cobbled market square and, just out of town, the French chateau-style Bowes Museum lies in Teesdale, the most pastoral of the Durham Dales.
Converted from an 18th century barn, Mill Cottage offers a comfortable and very convenient base for touring North Yorkshire. A pleasant sitting out area offers country views and visitors enjoy shared use, with the owner, of a fenced 3½ acre field. Adjacent to the owners home, it is located between Richmond (10 miles) with its castle, swimming pool and Georgian theatre and Barnard Castle (10 miles). The Yorkshire Dales and Moors are both within easy reach, and the northern Lake District is an hour's scenic drive. The Bowes Museum and Raby Castle are easily accessible. Lovely walking close to the Pennine Way, golf and riding locally. Village pub serving food ½ mile, shop 3 miles.
Three bedrooms. Open plan sitting/dining room with oak fitted kitchen area. Double bedroom. Two single bedrooms. Shower room/WC.
