This property enjoys a delightful countryside location in the North Yorkshire countryside and yet is still conveniently situated for exploring the local area including the historic city of York. The village of Tockwith is just 0.5 miles from the property and is home to two welcoming pubs as well as a village shop which is convenient for stocking up on essentials. To the west of the property, the spa town of Harrogate is a great place to enjoy a day trip, browsing the shops, taking afternoon tea, and relaxing at the famous Turkish Baths. To the east, meanwhile, York is equally as close and is home to the imposing York Minster, the Jorvik Viking Centre, and the National Railway Museum. As guests arrive at this cottage, there is space in the hallway to leave coats and boots before continuing on to the spacious kitchen/diner, passing a cloakroom with a WC on the way. This light filled room has been thoughtfully designed with plenty of space to enjoy leisurely meals together, with patio doors leading on to the enclosed patio area and a cosy wood burner and all the equipment that guests will need to prepare all their favourite dishes, including an oven, hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, and dishwasher. The washer/dryer, meanwhile, can be found in a separate utility cupboard in the hallway. A door from the kitchen leads through to the lounge where there is a comfortable sofa suite from which guests can enjoy views to the neighbouring riverbank. There is also a feature fireplace here with an electric fire, as well as an iPod dock and a TV/DVD with Sky. Upstairs there are three bedrooms. The first of these is a dual aspect king size room. The second bedroom is a restful twin room, whilst the third bedroom is a single room with an additional pull out bed which can be used to accommodate an additional guest on request. The bathroom, which is also on the first floor, offers a shower over bath and WC. Outside, the property benefits from an enclosed garden to the front of the property with a pleasant seating area, next to which there is parking for two cars. With the property being situated next to 7 acres of land there is plenty of fresh air to be had whilst walking the dogs and taking in the views on the river Nidd as this runs along the back of the garden. A garage available which can be used by prior arrangement for those who prefer to keep their cars covered or store bikes.
