My husband and I needed a few days break away to just relax and enjoy some downtime without racing around.
Beebole cottage is the perfect place for a couple who want something cosy and intimate. This one bedroom cottage has all the modern appliances set with in traditional style of stone walls and open wooden beams.
The living area is cosy with a log fire which we enjoyed using every day. One bag of logs and kindling were supplied but we bought another bag locally to allow us to indulge.
There is a TV with amazon firestick which allowed us to search for films etc.
The bedroom has a comfortable bed with ample of storage.
The bathroom was of good size and the shower was powerful enough to enjoy.
The kitchen had everything that we could possible need and more,. An electric oven and hob, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine and all the pots pans and crockery we could need to allow us to cook some lovely meals.
The cottage was warm and the central heating is easy to use and adjust the temperature throughout the day, and although we had no phone signal on our mobile phones (which was perfect for us for a couple of days) There is wifi in the cottage and a landline phone for emergency use.
The cottage is in amongst a couple of other cottages but we found to have no disturbance or noise pollution. The is parking next to the cottage with just a couple of stone steps down to the cottage entrance. During the wet weather the steps were a little slippery with wet leaves so for elderly or frail it would need a little extra care.
The area is quite minimal, which is what we wanted although there are plenty of places to visit within a short 15/20 minute drive through the beautiful dales.
I would recommend visiting Douglas Castle, this is one of the most informative castles we have visited and we thoroughly enjoyed over an hour of walking, discovering and reading the history of the historical place.
Aysgarth Falls is also nearby and whilst we were unable to the Upper and lower falls due to health reasons, we did visit the mid falls which was a short 5 min walk from the car park and enjoyed a lovely cream tea in the cafe.
Richmond town is a lovely cobbled town with shops and plenty of tea rooms and i would highly recommend just driving through the breath taking dales to enjoy the peace and views.
Overall, I would highly recommend this cottage as the perfect quiet getaway.
