Wensleydale · Yorkshire Dales
A cosy mews cottage in Askrigg — perfect for walkers, dreamers, and dogs
Your Dales Hideaway
Karnten Cottage is a delightful spacious property tucked away in a mews off the Main Street in Askrigg — the end terrace of a row of three traditional, stoneworked houses. The elevated position offers stunning views from the bedrooms over the rooftops to the magnificence of Addlebrough and Wensleydale.
At the front, a stone-flagged patio provides a place to sit, relax and enjoy the sounds of the Dales countryside. Inside, a large entrance hallway with bench and coat hooks leads to an open plan dining and living area complete with comfy sofas and a multi-fuel stove. Off the lounge is a well-equipped Shaker-style kitchen with everything you need to prepare a delicious meal.
Upstairs you'll find a twin bedroom with pretty cream bedframes, a king-size bedroom with Victorian-style bedstead and en-suite shower room, and a stylish house bathroom with bath, shower, washbasin and toilet. Stripped pine doors, comfortable furnishings, pretty drapes and tasteful artwork provide accommodation of a very high standard.
A moment's walk from the village centre with pubs, shop and delicatessen. Ideally placed to visit Bainbridge and Hawes to the west, and Aysgarth, Leyburn and Middleham to the east.
