Yockenthwaite Cottage | The Reading Rooms - a pet friendly that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

2 Bedroom Cottage in Yockenthwaite, Skipton

During the 19th century, reading rooms were once commonplace across much of rural Yorkshire: they were places to congregate, educate, debate and elucidate in a time long before mass media and 24 hour news. Practically every Dales hamlet had one, and this charming building was Oughtershaw's: located right opposite the village school, it was patronised by philanthropic Wood family, who owned nearby Oughtershaw Hall.
Today, the building retains all the period charm you could ask for. Topped by York stone roof tiles, surrounded by trimmed lawns and bordered by a tinkling book, it looks like it could have stumbled straight from the pages of All Creatures Great And Small. For those who have previously stayed at Oughtershaw Hall, it also makes an ideal village getaway if you're returning as part of a smaller group.
One well-behaved dog aged one and over is welcome.
Location-wise, you're in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales here, surrounded by green fields, hills and drystone walls: blissful isolation, and superb walking country. But if you do feel like being social, there are several renowned pubs within driving distance, and the market town of Hawes, 6 miles to the north, is on hand for supplies.

Summary: We had the most wonderful stay, a beautiful home which was hard to leave, but when we did the property is perfectly located to get to experience the beauty that is The Dales. the fact we could walk outside and be on the Dales Way was beautiful. We took our Labrador and the property as well as the surroundings were just perfect for a week away with the dog. Ben was brilliant and checked in to make sure we had what we need. The welcome hamper for us and the dog were such lovely touches. The most comfortable bed! Did not want to leave, we will be finding more of the properties to stay in across the UK. Can not recommend enough!!
