Ghyll Cottage & Little Ghyll - Kettlewell, Upper Wharfedale

Full Description
Ghyll Cottage and Little Ghyll are a lovely non-smoking, dog-friendly 18th century holiday cottage and annex in the honeypot Yorkshire Dales village of Kettlewell.
Recently refurbished by the new owners, Ghyll Cottage and Little Ghyll sleep up to 8 in a spacious, well-appointed 3 bedroomed cottage (6 guests) and annex (2 guests) alongside the picture postcard Kettlewell Beck.
Whatever your preference - from walking to cycling, riding to climbing, caving to fishing, to doing precisely nothing nursing a decent pint in one of the three pubs just four minutes' walk away - you'll find it here, and a warm welcome to match. With nothing but Mother Nature to disturb your peace, yet everything on your doorstep, your holiday can be as relaxed or as active as you choose.

Originally two cottages, believed to be occupied by cotton weavers or lead miners, both prevalent industries at the time, Ghyll Cottage was converted into one spacious, well-proportioned home in the mid-1900s.
The room sizes - at 21ft, the sitting room is unusually large for a cottage - are matched by the kind of characterful features typical for a period property, with exposed (occasionally low - 6 footers take care!) beams, irregular walls and hints of a life and time gone by.
To the front you'll find a bench perfectly located to simply watch the world, its walkers and its sheep go by; to the rear is an enclosed south-facing terrace with side views to the fell, garden dining furniture to seat 8 and a barbecue.

Little Ghyll (annex)
Formerly a village washhouse, our annex, Little Ghyll, offers self-contained sleeping and bathing accommodation from its idyllic location right alongside Kettlewell Beck. Light, bright and spacious, this allows a couple in your party to enjoy everything Ghyll Cottage has to offer, with the added benefit of their own front door to close at the end of the day. A private beckside deck, complete with bistro table and chairs, provides the perfect spot to grab a cup of tea/glass of something suitable/cheeky nightcap and simply take in the beautiful view.
If you're in need of a little restorative TLC, we sincerely hope you'll find it here.
Please note: access to Little Ghyll is via 4 irregular steps down and 4 steps up, so we ask any guests with mobility issues to take particular care. The beck is deep in parts here - historically sheep were dipped in this stretch of water - so we strongly advise that only adults stay in the annex. Children should be supervised at all times.
