This pretty stone-built, mid-terrace cottage, set on the edge of the small village of Low Row, boasts unrivaled views of the Swale river and valley.

The garden at this Swaledale cottage is ideal for alfresco dining. Within a short walk is the village pub, which serves fine ales and good food, whilst three miles away is the popular village of Reeth, with a further selection of pubs.

A scattering of traditional farms and cottages make up the village of Low Row situated to the north of the River Swale.

Its eighteenth-century houses and hotel clustered around the triangular village green make it one of the very popular Dales villages. Askrigg better known to millions as Darrowby in TV's James Herriot's "All Creatures Great and Small" is just a short drive away as well as Aysgarth Falls, Semerwater and Hardraw Force (England's highest single drop waterfall at 99ft).

A well equipped and very warm and comfortable cottage, well located for a quiet break in Swaledale. Carol, the owner, is very helpful and welcoming. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our week there.

Booked this stunning cottage for my birthday with the family and our lovely dog. It was just perfect and we couldn't have asked for more. The view from the back is stunning, the quality of the cottage was excellent and not shabby at all. we were very happy and had a wonderful break. A superb base to explore the dales.

There were wonderful views from the front or back door. We enjoyed the peace and quiet sitting watching the wildlife, and there were plenty of places to visit and eat. All in all a very enjoyable holiday.

Rated by Mr Morgan reviewed on 7th August 2016

We live in Harrogate, wanted a week away but not to far. Found this cottage in Swaledale a area not visited before. So we duly booked it, have just got back what a brilliant week we had glorious weather apart from one day. Lovely cosy warm cottage with unbelievable views across and up swaledale, plenty of chairs to sit on and admire the views even a summer house. As I've said didn't travel far, but we could have been a million miles away the peace and quiet was bliss watching all the wildlife, we even saw a mole. Must not forget to mention Basil the cat who greeted us every morning. Plenty of places to eat, would recommend the Punch Bowl within walking distance and the Farmers Arms at Muker. Reeth a charming place would seem to have everything you might need. All in all a lovely holiday and a very comfy Yorkshire cottage.

A lovely cottage in outstanding countryside, could not fault the cottage. Had good dog friendly pubs and plenty of walks in the dale - couldn't ask for more.

Rated by Mr Needham reviewed on 28th June 2015

The location was perfect for us and this comfortable cottage with a south facing view over the Dale made for a grand stay. The sun shone all week, but we would still have enjoyed Swaledale whatever the weather, in such a cosy cottage. The owners were very helpful and made us very welcome indeed. Many thanks.

A very comfortable and cosy cottage with all the amenities you need, even towels and hair dryer were provided. However, the best bit is definitely the amazing location. The views are outstanding!

Loved the location. Convenient for the Northern Dales. The cottage had wonderful views and was peaceful and tranquil.

Rated by Ms Macey reviewed on 13th July 2014

The cottage was very well appointed and spotless. The beds were extremely comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped with everything that you could possibly need when cooking on holiday. The fridge-freezer was large. The provision of a washing machine was very useful. The living room was equipped with a good quality television and also a Blu-Ray player, which was a nice touch. The hot water was always boiling hot and there was plenty of it. The patio at the front of the house enjoys stunning views up and down the dale, and it was wonderful to sit out in the mornings and listen to the birdsong. We had a wonderful time, and will definitely be returning to stay here.

A wonderful hide-away: very comfortable accomodation, thoughtful provision (eg slow cooker -just what you need if you are out all day),quiet, stunning ,uninterupted views of the river and fells.

Rated by Mrs Wilkinson reviewed on 25th April 2014

The views from the property were so beautiful and there are many good walks straight from the property and it was central to visit many interesting areas by car. The Punchbowl hotel/pub was very close and within walking distance and was very welcoming for a drink and meal after a long walk. Also the owners were very welcoming and made sure our stay went smoothly.
