In a nutshell: Panoramic views, comfortable stylish interior, open fires, four bathrooms, wi-fi, pet friendly. If you are looking for large holiday cottages Yorkshire is a great location for a get-together with family or friends, with plenty to do for everyone. Within 10 miles there is: Lightwater Valley - one of the leading theme parks in the UK; the traditional Dales market town of Masham with two famous breweries - both with excellent visitor centres and brewery tours; Jervaulx Abbey, one of the great Cistercian abbeys of Yorkshire and perhaps one of the few remaining romantic English ruins and; The Forbidden Corner, a unique labyrinth of tunnels, chambers, follies and surprises - anyone who likes their Hogwarts is not going to be disappointed.
