This charming cottage is tucked away in a quiet courtyard, enjoying a central position overlooking Pateley Bridge's high street, winner of village high street of the year in 2016 and also voted one of the best places to live in the UK in 2018. An abundance of independent shops, bars and eateries await, just a stones' throw from the doorstep. The Nidderdale way, a well-known route for ramblers, is less than a mile from the cottage and there are countless trails and cycle routes to explore nearby.

Step off the bustling High Street and into the courtyard before entering this charming cottage straight into the kitchen/diner, where keen chefs will enjoy cooking up a storm. The kitchen is well-equipped with an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge with ice compartment and dishwasher. For dining, a quaint kitchen table and chairs sit in the corner of the room creating the ideal spot to enjoy a delicious home-cooked meal. A staircase leads up to the first floor   where you will find the superbly stylish lounge, the perfect place to relax after a day enjoying the outdoors, where you can sink back into the sofas, watch a good movie on the Smart TV and enjoy a glass of wine.

Hidden Gem was a lovely place to stay. There was everything we needed for a three night stay, full kitchen, comfy bedroom, and unique lounge! Our host was very helpful, allowing us to access the cottage early, offering lots of suggestions for things to do and places to eat. Pateley Bridge was a bit quiet, but then it was just after Christmas, and mRead moreost of the shops were closed while we were there. We would definitely recommend the cottage to those wanting a good base to explore the area. Hide

Hidden Gem was a perfect place for two people to stay. Clean and very comfortable and in the middle of the High Street which has all the necessary amenities. Having Kendalls Farm butchers next door is perfect, the pies, sausage rolls and scotched eggs are just the best. Although the high street is busy, the noise from the traffic never affected us Read moreas the bedroom is at the back. This is the second time we have been to Pateley Bridge, we will be back staying at Hidden Gem again. Hide
