This 17th century traditional Dales cottage is just off the village centre in Thwaite in Swaledale, in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. It nestles within its original farm buildings and still has its cobbled back yard leading to the garden and the protected hay meadows beyond, with stunning views of Upper Swaledale.

Beamed ceilings, deepset windows and open fires in both living rooms contribute to the cosy feel of Stockdale, which is loved by everyone who stays in it. This is an excellent base to explore the area, whether it be on foot or by car, or you can just hide away and relax, whatever the weather or time of year.  
  • 4 star grading awarded by Visit Britain recognising the quality and luxury of the cottage.
  • The location is ideal, with walks from the door including the Pennine Way and the Coast to Coast.
  • There is easy access to the nearby towns of Hawes, Leyburn, Richmond, Barnard Castle and Kirkby Stephen.
