Brilliant and comfortable flat right on the green in Reeth. Superb views of the town and very cosy rooms. Good quality kitchen and bathroom. A perfect stay.
Lovely accommodation in the best spot for Reeth. Sarah is a great host, just let’s you get on with it, but is there for anything you need. We have stayed there a number of times and it is perfect.
Our kids (8 and 5) were beyond excited when they realised we were staying above the ice cream parlour. Apart from immediate access to delicious ice cream every day the cottage had everything we needed. A super spacious kitchen and comfortable rooms. As others have mentioned the views from the window seats were perfect for people watching. We did a lovely walk down to the river and stepping stones (5km loop) passing the playground which was another great bonus. The village had everything we needed- two pubs, a shop, a warren of a toy shop and a football net up on the village green which our kids played at for hours. Highly recommend.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Reeth. The apartment was perfectly placed for all that Swaledale has to offer, with views across the village green to the hills above. The welcome we received from hostess Sarah was excellent and her comfortable apartment offered everything that we needed. All this & a lovely ice-cream parlour downstairs too. Thank you very much!
Such a cute cottage that epitomized Yorkshire dales living. Well-equipped kitchen, very comfortable beds, and living room furniture. It was really fun to be staying above an ice-cream parlour of delicious ice cream. Host was lovely and nearby if we needed anything.
The boiler was a little hard to work and the cottage did get cold but we eventually found instructions on how to work it so the only feedback would be to leave those instructions in a more obvious place.
Clean and tidy flat above the Ice Cream Parlour, comfortable lounge with a great vista.
It has a well appointed kitchen and lovely bedrooms.
Sarah was a lovely host, always on hand in the parlour.
We would certainly return.
The ice cream armour apartment is the perfect place to stay in Reeth. The views from the window seats are spectacular, great walking from the door whatever the weather and then a cosy home to come back to after a day in the air. Ice creams, cakes and coffee on the doorstep too!
Brilliant apartment right in the heart of Reeth. Spacious, well appointed and really homely. Great views of the village and Fremington. Lovely owner who is friendly and helpful. Couldn’t fault the apartment at all. We will definitely be back!
Accommodation above ice cream parlour was perfect for our 2 night stay. Comfortable and warm with a large lounge and kitchen and two good bedrooms on the top floor. Sarah was very welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. Good choice of pubs in the village for food and plenty of walking in the area. We would definitely stay again.
Short stay for a couple of days walking. Excellent location. Great choice of pubs and restaurants nearby. Sarah, the proprietor, gave us a warm welcome and was a lovely hostess.
We had a lovely 3 day break at the Apartment above the Icecream Parlour in Reeth, Yorkshire Dales. (Our favourite Village).
It was Cosy and had great views of the village which was a bonus!!
Sarah our host was very welcoming and would definitely stay there again again.
Another lovely stay at this gorgeous apartment. Cosy and spacious with comfortable beds and lovely views over the green at Reeth. Perfect for an autumn/winter relaxing break. Well equipped kitchen but plenty of eateries on the doorstep

About the host
Hosted by Sarah Midgley
Peter and I have owned the Ice Cream Parlour in Reeth for 20 years, since we married in 1999. We bought the property to be our first home as well as a business. We were very happy living in the apartment and loved watching every detail of Reeth life through the two lovely front windows! The Ice Cream Parlour has been an enjoyable business to run. We meet very many interesting and different people who return year after year. We now have two children who are growing fast and an opportunity arose to move to a larger property across the Green. We refurbished the apartment and feel that it offers a lovely relaxing place to enjoy a holiday in Swaledale.
