Set within the picture-perfect rolling green hills of Summerbridge in Nidderdale, this cottage offers a truly tranquil getaway to the Yorkshire Dales. However, the cosmopolitan town of Harrogate, home to a number of attractions, shops, eateries and pubs, sits just 11 miles away, offering the perfect blend of countryside and city if you wish to venture that way. Be sure to check out the Turkish Baths, RHS Garden Harlow Carr and the Royal Pump Room in Harrogate for sightseeing to remember. With miles and miles of stunning walks and mountain biking trails from the doorstep, this cottage is somewhat of a haven for guests looking to explore the great outdoors.

 

If you're in search of a delectable mix of old and new, look no further. Combining historic stone walls with bright and contemporary interiors, this cottage gives a real homely ambience from the moment you approach it. Downstairs is home to a large open-plan kitchen diner, fully-equipped with all the essentials you'll need throughout your stay. Sit down and enjoy delicious homecooked meals made from the local produce at your chic dining table before retreating to the lounge next door. At the heart of the lounge is a wood burner, which you can fire up so you can enjoy cosy nights in, sinking into the comfortable sofas following a day of discovery. When the night draws in, make your way upstairs for a restful sleep in the warm master bedroom complete with a king-size sleigh bed. Across the hall sits the vast bathroom, boasting a fabulous roll-top bath so you can enjoy a long hot soak or use the separate walk-in shower.

 

Step outside to find a charming enclosed courtyard, perfect for dogs. During the warmer months, make use of the outdoor furniture and enjoy a spot of al fresco dining or simply sit outside and soak up your surroundings. The sheltered spot makes a heavenly space to be enjoyed during the summer so you can bask in the sun all day long. Throw down a picnic blanket and enjoy a bite to eat or lose yourself in your favourite book as you appreciate the tranquillity of this location.

A very comfortable and well-finished property. As the road is narrow and has no footpaths, we could not recommend walking directly from the cottage, but it is conveniently located for visiting a number of attractive towns (Harrogate, Ilkley, Skipton, Grassington etc) by car.

Folly Rigg is a superbly equipped cottage. We couldn't have asked for more in the way of comfort. In a beautiful part of the dales but unfortunately not advisable to walk from the door as near a busy main road with sharp bends and no footpath. However this did not spoil our stay.
