About this property

South View, Reeth, Yorkshire Dales

Deep in the heart of Swaledale​, the famous backdrop to Wuthering Heights starring Margot Robbie, South View is a Yorkshire stone built cottage full of charm and modern comforts, including an outdoor wood fired pizza oven. Retaining oodles of character, this hideaway is an excellent choice for a family of four, or group of friends, who love the great outdoors but like the convenience of being within easy reach of a small local town such as Reeth.

Entered through the porch, the ground floor of South View comprises of a dining room with a wood burning stove and dining table for six, a sitting room, and a galley kitchen. Featuring wooden floors and exposed beams the dual aspect sitting room offers comfortable seating around the second wood burning stove and stairs leading the first floor. To the rear of the cottage, the well-equipped kitchen provides everything needed should you wish to cook up a feast after a morning spent exploring one of the local produce markets.

Upstairs on the first floor, the two spacious bedrooms overlook beautiful Swaledale - a fantastic view to wake up to in all seasons. The master bedroom hosts a king size bed, with twin beds (that can also be converted into a super king-size bed on request) offered in bedroom two, making this an ideal cottage for young families or couples. A family bathroom provides a bath and shower overhead plus there is a an additional cloakroom on the landing.

The outside space to the rear of the cottage is quite simply the icing on the cake. A raised flagged patio area offers seating, a charcoal barbecue, firepit, sink, and even a wood fired pizza oven. All this with magnificent views of the fell as the backdrop. Time spent at South View in the pretty hamlet of Healaugh will always be remembered.

Half an hour walk along the River Swale will take you to Reeth, home to many cosy pubs, a bakery, coffee shops and the local weekly market - we recommend the local cheese stall! The cottage is right on the coast to coast route, so packing your walking boots and map is a must. Local bus routes run throughout the week to the historic town of Richmond, with mediaeval castle, twice a week market and boutique shops. This is the ideal hideaway and base to explore the Yorkshire Dales and more.

An initial welcome basket of logs will be provided.
Two well-behaved dogs welcome (small additional charge per dog)
Children and infants welcome. A baby gate is fixed to the bottom of the stairs, however please provide your own high chair and travel cot with linen.

Excellent location for walkers. The rooms were clean and it was nice to have the extra 1/2 bath (toilet/sink). The back garden overlooking the hills and stone fences was a real plus - we ate outside at least a day, weather permitting. The 20 minute walk to Reeth was far enough to make the property 'isolated' but close enough for pub lunches and shopping at the Reeth post office. Lots of walks right outside the front door and more within a sort drive. Perfect.

Late getaway

Lovely property in a beautiful area. Views are stunning. Fire was great. And beds were comfortable. The only downsides we had were the single beds which had been requested to be made into a double weren’t. Also some basic provisions would have been useful. There could do to be some salt & pepper cooking oil and maybe some kitchen roll. To me it’s the little things that make the difference between renting a house and renting a holiday home. Shower could also be improved.

Thank you for your honest feedback and we will of course pass this on. We do supply our number in the guest book should you need anything during your stay and would have been more than happy to pop these items in and alter the beds for you as requested. Many thanks and glad you enjoyed those stunning views!
