Middehus, Preston-under-Scar, Yorkshire Dales
Ideally situated with the Yorkshire Dales on your doorstep, Middehus is the perfect dog friendly cottage for multi-generational families. Sympathetically restored yet retaining exposed beams and a wood burning stove, this hideaway sits proud within the picturesque village of Preston under Scar, just ten minutes from the popular market town of Leyburn.
Sleeping up to four guests in two delightful en suite bedrooms, this cottage exudes a home from home feel from the moment you enter. The cosy sitting room offers two large comfy sofas, an imposing fireplace with wood burning stove, and original floor boards. The welcoming, refurbished country kitchen will inspire you to cook up a feast to be enjoyed at the oak dining table, or alternatively take your dish outside onto the delightful patio area to listen to the birds whilst dining al fresco. Retiring upstairs in this peaceful cottage invites ultimate relaxation. The master bedroom hosts a super-king size zip-and-link bed that can be configured as two 3'single beds on request, with a king-size bed in bedroom two.
Middehus is perfectly situated for family or friends who want to discover all that rich cultural heritage of North Yorkshire and Wensleydale have to offer. Bordering the Yorkshire Dales National Park known for its dark skies and limestone scenery, every day will be one to remember whist staying in this charming cottage.
