About this property

Fox Cottage, Middleham, Yorkshire Dales

Located in the historic village of Middleham, Fox Cottage is an ideally situated delightful, single storey property surrounded by pretty gardens that will inspire gardeners in all seasons. With magnificent far-reaching countryside views, this hideaway is just a stone's throw from picturesque Coverdale - perfect for walks with your four legged friend.

Upon entering the property, the hallway leads to all rooms. A modern and spacious kitchen with breakfast bar and stools is the perfect perch to sit and entertain the nominated chef. This leads through to the sunny conservatory where you can unwind and enjoy the evening sun or a lazy breakfast - the views from here are stunning, and dogs love this warm, relaxing room too! The light sitting room offers plenty of comfy seating plus a cosy open fire for chillier evenings. A separate dining room overlooks the verdant garden with french doors opening out to the raised balcony. Two good size bedrooms (a king-size bed and a twin) are both comfortable and stylishly decorated.

Outside, the garden is a real joy with lovely flower borders and many different trees and shrubs. The sunny seating area is ideal for al fresco dining, and the balcony boasts beautiful, far reaching views. There are steep steps in the garden which are not suitable for children or those with limited mobility.

Fox cottage feedback

Overall nice cottage. Bedrooms needed a deeper clean as behind the single beds there was evidence of lots of dust. The wardrobes smelled musty. The living room sofa covers needed a wash and were obv stained. One chair in particular smelt of sweat. Kitchen was well equipped although could have done with a new frying pan. This is a nice cottage but needs a bit deeper cleaning attention.

Thank you for your honest review. I have passed on your comments to the owner and they are aware that a deep clean will be put in place following a very busy summer.

Wunderschönes Cottage mit allem was man für einen Urlaub braucht eher schon gehoben ausgestattet. Im Cottage selbst befinden sich Infos über die nähere Umgebung. Einzige und gleichzeitig geringe Kritik wäre das es im Cottage eine tolle Auswahl an dvd Filmen gibt um einen gemütlichen Abend zu verbringen es leider aber keinen dvd Player gibt. Sonnst gibt es echt alles was das Herz begehrt wlan ect.

Fox cottage

We loved it was just right for us, I apologise for leaving boot room messy but the bad weather on our last day made it impossible not to bring wet mud in and obviously we had to be gone so could not wait till it improved. Even our dog settled straight away. The only issue was the drive and not having recycling bin

The location is good for exploration of the dales and for travelling to the North York Moors and coast. In most respects the cottage is excellent and everything works. Persons with back problems should note that the double mattress is one of the hardest and the narrow shower restricts movement. The village has a grocer, several food pubs, a chip shop [closes 8pm] and clutter [sorry, antique] shops, and Leyburn, a mile away, is similar.
