Located in the ever popular village of Bainbridge, Newkin House is a traditional stone cottage which has recently been refurbished to a high standard and provides very comfortable accommodation for families and couples alike. With lots of original features including beamed ceilings, latched doors, wooden window shutters and oak floors there is plenty of character and charm. The lounge, with a large leather sofa and velvet chair is perfect for relaxing in after a day exploring the Dales, and the multi-fuel stove will warm any cooler evening for those cosy nights in. The kitchen diner is of very good quality and provides a superb social space when cooking and dining, or you may choose to make the most of the patio space outdoors. Upstairs, the bedrooms and contemporary bathroom provide a good level of comfort.

Bainbridge, in the middle of picturesque Wensleydale, is one of the favourite villages of visitors to the Yorkshire Dales. The wide village greens, children's play area and local cafe opposite, enjoy a backdrop of the fells making this one of the prettiest villages. Basic supplies are available at the small village store in Sycamore Hall whilst a variety of shops can be found just four and a half miles away. The market towns of Hawes and Leyburn lie at either end of Wensleydale and the area is wonderful for walking, cycling and simply enjoying the stunning scenery.

The perfect getaway, location, cleanliness and comfort. Our hosts provided everything from Prosecco and chocolates, to firewood and milk. Very happy and our family thoroughly enjoyed getting away from it all. We will be back.

A beautiful, fully equipped and cosy cottage in a really lovely little village. The beds were ultra comfortable and warm. The cottage is lovely and warm with stove and central heating. There is plenty of space and it has everything you need and more. We had a lovely relaxing stay and really didnt want to leave. Thank you for having us! Just toRead more note, if you are reliant on a local pub the one in this village has closed down, sadly :(. Hide

We had a lovely short break in the midst of the Yorkshire Dales. The cottage was well appointed, well heated and had everything we needed (& more besides). Very quiet especially at night. Lots of books to read with wide range of options. Would be happy to stay again.

Very comfortable and well equipped. Though near to the main road, because it faced away, it was very quiet. We could sit outside with a pre dinner drink in peace and quiet. Would I return - yes. Even though some parts were quite low and I'm 6'5"!

Absolutely loved our stay in Newkin house. I felt so comfortable and at home straight away, normally I take a couple of nights to settle, but I slept so well from the first night, the bed was so comfy I loved it. Everything was just perfect, the kitchen is well equipped and everything has been thought of. We didnt need to use the fire as it was verRead morey warm anyway but Im sure it would be lovely and cozy in winter too. Cant thank the owners enough for a perfect holiday Hide
