Cowlings is a characterful, stone-built Grade II listed cottage resting beside the River Swale in the rolling countryside of the Yorkshire Dales. Rich in original features, including exposed beams, stonework, and timber flooring, this inviting retreat offers a traditional setting for families and friends looking to spend time together in one of the region’s most scenic locations.
Inside, the cottage blends charm with everyday practicality. The farmhouse-style kitchen provides a welcoming place to prepare meals, with a dining table ready for relaxed evenings sharing food and conversation. The sitting room is centred around a multi-fuel stove set within a Minster fireplace, creating a warm focal point after a day out walking; here, you can settle in with the TV or stream music through the Bluetooth speakers.
The mullion windows draw in views of the surrounding landscape, offering a constant reminder of the beautiful setting. Upstairs, the first floor hosts two thoughtfully arranged bedrooms, including a king-size with an additional single bed, alongside a twin room, making the layout well-suited to both families and small groups.
Each space continues the cottage’s traditional feel, providing a place to recharge. Outside, the patio offers an ideal spot to take in the sweeping countryside, whether starting the morning with a coffee or unwinding in the evening with a glass of wine. A pub lies close by, while the nearest shop is approximately 3 miles away.
The surrounding area is rich in places to explore, with Barnard Castle offering attractions such as the Bowes Museum, Egglestone Abbey, and its historic castle. The market towns of Darlington and Kirkby Stephen provide further amenities, while the Nidderdale AONB showcases open moorland and far-reaching views.
