About this property
A traditional semi-detached stone cottage overlooking the village green in the centre of the pretty Dales village of Redmire, just four miles from Leyburn. Offering comfortable accommodation, this Redmire cottage boasts a cosy sitting room, a well-equipped kitchen and three welcoming bedrooms. Outside this Redmire cottage, guests can enjoy the walled garden and a lovely lawn, which are both ideal for alfresco dining on a lovely summer's evening. The village itself is at the heart of the walkers' paradise of Upper Wensleydale offering beautiful views of the Dales countryside that can be seen from almost every part of the village. Nearby, the town of Leyburn, with its quaint market square, offers a good choice of shops, eateries and art galleries, plus the famous horse racing village of Middleham is just a short drive away. With so much glorious Dales countryside on the doorstep, this is an ideal Redmire cottage for walkers, families and friends at any time of the year.
The village of Redmire boasts a pub serving good food and is set on the Wensleydale Railway, which features steam locomotives during the summer. Castle Bolton, a medieval castle is close by and is well worth a visit. Leyburn is only four miles away and offers shops, pubs and art galleries.

A comfortable old property with everything we needed, although WiFi was rather weak. We really appreciated the secluded garden with table and chairs. Redmire is a pretty village but there can be problems parking at busy times. Our host Sue who lived next door was there on our arrival and was very helpful throughout.

The garden was an added bonus. Loved the view of the green and the charming village. Excellent location for exploring the Yorkshire Dales. It was nice to have the owner, Sue, next door as she was very helpful. We had a great relaxing holiday.

Plenty of walks and we enjoyed the food at the Bolton Arms nearby. The owner who lives next door promptly gave any help needed - thank you Mrs. Robinson. We would be happy to return.
