Cat Hole Cottages

Moorlands

Spacious three-bedroomed family home in stunning countryside with amazing views Sleeps 7/8 + cot

Treasured by its owners and family, Moorlands is a 250 year old Grade II listed sunny and spacious home set in the tiny hamlet of Blades, a habitat of lapwings, curlews and red grouse. With magnificent views over upper Swaledale, Moorlands nestles in a sheltered hollow on open moor grazed by Swaledale sheep and cattle, yet is only half a mile above Low Row. With many Dales cottage features, including a wonderful farmhouse kitchen, stone fireplaces and shelves, and beamed and boarded ceilings, this splendid house is full of character and atmosphere. Recently refurbished to a high standard, quality new furnishings sit comfortably alongside beautiful antiques, including superb half-tester and antique brass beds in the two double bedrooms. With large window seats in which to relax and admire the scenery, Moorlands is warm, welcoming and a delight to return to after a day exploring the surrounding hills!

Sorry, no pets.

Moorlands weekly bookings run from Saturday to Saturday. Short breaks are not available at this property.
