Lovingly and beautifully renovated and decorated, Garden Cottage is conveniently set between the edge of the old part of town and the lovely Swaledale countryside. A short stroll down the hill brings you to walks by the River Swale and through the woods. The cottage is rated Visit England 4-star gold with a prestigious Rose award given in 2022.
Situated in the historic market town of Richmond, North Yorkshire, Garden Cottage is within a few minutes’ walk of the Market Place with its interesting independent shops, restaurants, tea rooms and pubs. It is a hop, skip and a jump into the Yorkshire Dales National Park – voted No. 1 Travellers’ Choice of the World’s National Parks on TripAdvisor 2021.
The Georgian Theatre Royal is the oldest working theatre in England in its original form. Take a tour – fascinating – and enjoy performances in this tiny theatre. Also in the town are the Green Howards Regimental Museum, Richmond Castle, Richmondshire Museum, Easby Abbey and the converted Victorian station, which houses three cinema screens, artisan shops and a popular café bar.
This pretty, Victorian gardener’s cottage stands in the former kitchen garden of Yorke House. The south-facing, enclosed garden gives spectacular views of Richmond Castle and Billy Banks Woods. Guests are invited through the picket gate to explore the owners’ 1-acre award winning garden.
Views east are of Richmond Castle and the magnificent Norman keep – rise early to see the sun piercing the great, arched window.
The cottage front door opens into a stone flagged passage leading to the garden and well-fitted kitchen, lounge/dining room and downstairs loo. A door from the kitchen leads upstairs to en-suite master bedroom, second double, twin and family bathroom with bath and separate shower.
In the cosy lounge/ dining room you’ll find a piano (regularly tuned) Wi-fi, TV/DVD, Radio/CD, Ipod Dock. The cottage’s secure stone corridor can accommodate bike, boots, coats and pushchair and is a great place for damp dogs to dry off.
Outside the pretty, enclosed, south-facing garden has patio table and chairs, lawn with superb Monkey-Puzzle tree, roses, apple trees and flowery borders – perfect for evening drinks, dining al fresco or just a laze with a good book!
