Beautiful Holiday Cottages in Yorkshire

Sandy Cottage Sleeps 5 • Classic Dales Charm
In the stunning Yorkshire Dales National Park

This lovely 18th Century stone cottage is steeped in classic Dales character with Yorkstone flags, aged timber floors, exposed beams and an impressive Inglenook fireplace. Its snug interiors combining understated chicness and modern comforts make it a homely and mellow retreat.

There’s nothing more relaxing than curling up in front of an open fire toasting teacakes or luxuriating in a bateau bath by candlelight. On warmer days you can enjoy the rustic courtyard with BBQ, or with bevvy in hand settle on the pretty front garden-seat overlooking the generous village green and watch riverside life.

Lots of popular walks straight from the doorstep to Grassington, Hebden, Burnsall and beyond taking in the dramatic Linton Falls and Norman Church nestling mystically on the banks of the River Wharfe.

Whatever the reason for your visit you will take away the magic of the Dales.

Details • Comments • Book

Linton is blessed with being one of the most unspoilt villages and off the beaten track. Its meandering Beck overlooked by a noble packhorse bridge and the unexpected grandeur of Fountaine’s Hospital will transport you to an age of wild romance. Linton is further historically endowed with the Fountaine Inn, now one of the best gastropubs in Yorkshire. Sandy Cottage is just 1½ miles from the lively social hub of Grassington with its cornucopia of shops and places to eat and drink, and within easy distance of neighbouring villages “up and down Dale”. And only 8 miles from Skipton “the Gateway to the Dales” means it’s easy to explore from this lovely part of the National Park both near and further afield.

" A well equipped, comfortable and charming cottage, perfectly situated for touring the Dales. We were delighted to be able to enjoy cosy evenings by the log burning stove after a busy day touring or pop to the pub a minute away, with its lovely warm atmosphere and good menu. I would thoroughly recommend this cottage. "

" An extremely well equipped cottage in an unbelievably desirable location. So comfortable with absolutely everything that you could need. We have stayed in many many holiday cottages but this is without a doubt the best. If you’re looking for somewhere in The Dales book it you won’t be disappointed. Walks literally from the door, a pub fifty yards away and quiet too! But also within walking distance of Grassington. Perfect! X "
