A lovely cottage in a gorgeous spot. Swallows Nest is very well equipped and comfortable. It is beautifully decorated with lovely glimpses of the family who own it. We especially loved the bench at the front of the cottage and its dedication to a faithful friend. We enjoyed seeing the lambs in the fields around us every day. Hebden is a perfect location to explore the Dales by car or on foot and the village tea room a must.

Lovely cottage, clean and very practical. A short drive to Grassington gives you all your amenities. A little further and there are few things to see and do. Lots of great walks close by.
