6 Bed Cottage in Gilling West

About this property

Modern minimalism and exuberant design features elevate this holiday home into a magnificent country retreat. With climbing wisteria out front, you wouldn’t expect this chocolate box cottage in a quiet Yorkshire village to be quite so sophisticated inside, complete with contemporary features including underfloor heating, walk-in showers and a private hot tub. Hosting 12 guests, the accommodation lends itself perfectly to celebratory occasions and long-awaited get-togethers with larger groups of family and friends. Fill each day with North Yorkshire excursions, hikes and bike rides, always eager to return home to the undeniable comfort of the house each evening.

Discover an array of highlights on the ground floor, including the exceptionally presented kitchen/diner with stone-flagged flooring, a bespoke chef’s kitchen and a causal spot for dining. Next door, the orangery is a splendid spot for more formal mealtimes, complete with windows and French doors offering views and access to the delightful walled garden. Before heading to bed, spend a few cosy moments in front of the open fire in the lounge. All six double bedrooms are laid out across three levels, each as impressive as the last and two boasting open-plan bathroom features with impressive showers and a roll-top bath.

Gilling West is a serene Yorkshire village with a local pub that’s just metres from your doorstep. The nearby town of Richmond is a short drive away (3 miles), home to a castle, a host of riverside vistas and the fascinating Green Howards Museum. Richmond is a gateway town to the neighbouring Yorkshire Dales, so feel free to leave your car here and embark on a waymarked route into the depths of the national park. You can wander along the River Swale to soak up the Swaledale splendour, reaching Calver Hill (14.5 miles) and Bolton Castle (15 miles) with ease.
