This idyllic stone cottage tucked away in the sleepy rural village of Spennithorne is a truly cosy and quaint home from home which welcomes six guests, perfect for families and groups of friends looking to explore everything Wensleydale and the surrounding North Yorkshire countryside has to offer.
Carefully considered with comfort and relaxation in mind, this sympathetically renovated cottage offers the very best of contemporary countryside living, a stone’s throw from the delightful market town of Leyburn. The foodies and culture vultures amongst your party will love Leyburn, offering a range of traditional local pubs, cafes and shops gathered around a handsome town square.
Beneath the gorgeous stone exterior of this traditional Yorkshire cottage, the peaceful ambience of the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner beckons you to spend quality time with your loved ones. Retaining much of its character from its original features including a stone chimney, exposed stone and ceiling beams, combined with extra special contemporary decor, you’ll instantly feel at home in this social space.
Get creative in the contemporary farmhouse-style kitchen with the delicious local produce you’ve collected from the nearby local shops. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need to unleash your inner culinary genius to keep the crowd seated around the rustic dining table satisfied.
As the evening draws in, fire up the roaring wood burner in the lounge area to keep toes toasty as you curl up on the comfy sofas and share stories of the day’s adventures with the soft crackles of the wood burner in the background. Dig into some popcorn or some tasty leftovers before starting up the Smart TV to enjoy the ultimate family film night.
Upstairs, you will find three wonderfully furnished bedrooms, each dressed for the occasion in a soft neutral colour palette and plenty of natural tones that reflect the stunning unspoilt scenery that surrounds you. You have two king-size bedrooms and a double bedroom with stunning exposed iron beams to choose between for a peaceful rest before tomorrow’s adventure. If you’re not quite ready for bed yet, indulge in a peaceful bubbly soak in the bath in the family bathroom and feel the stress release from your shoulders.
Outside, children and playful pups will adore exploring the lawn in the front cottage garden, bordered by some wonderful mature trees and pretty plants that are both a treat for the eyes and nose in summer. At the rear of the cottage, you also have a small courtyard ideal for storing bikes or muddy boots.
