Moss View Cottage

Tucked away in the peaceful hamlet of Oughtershaw, deep within the Yorkshire Dales National Park, Moss View Cottage is a truly special retreat for those looking to escape the everyday and immerse themselves in the beauty of the Dales.

Dating back to the 17th century, this traditional dog-friendly Yorkshire Dales cottage retains plenty of original character, including stone floors and beautiful traditional stone mullion windows, while offering all the modern comforts you need for a relaxing stay. With a welcoming and cosy living room with a freestanding log burner, a modern, fully equipped kitchen as well as a compact bathroom, which is conveniently located on the ground floor. Upstairs, there are two spacious bedrooms, each with a king-size bed - sleeping up to 4 guests.

Outside, the large enclosed garden provides plenty of space for dogs to stretch their legs, while the patio and picnic area offer a lovely place to sit and enjoy the scenery. There's also parking for up to two cars, making your arrival easy and convenient.

The highlight is the private hot tub, perfectly positioned on the patio with steps down to decking overlooking Oughtershaw Beck. A picnic table and chairs make this a perfect spot to relax after a day exploring the Dales listening to the river as it flows past the cottage.

From the doorstep, you can walk up onto Oughtershaw Moor and follow forest tracks to Low Greenfield, hike the Dales Way (which passes past the cottage) or explore Fleet Moss and beyond. Although wonderfully peaceful and secluded, the cottage is within easy reach of Hawes, just around a 20-minute drive away. Here you'll find independent cafés, shops, galleries and the famous Wensleydale Creamery, along with traditional Yorkshire pubs and plenty more to discover. Families can also enjoy the neighbouring small family-run farm, where you might meet some friendly resident animals too.

Whether you're looking for long countryside walks, peaceful days surrounded by nature, relaxing evenings in the hot tub or simply somewhere to escape the hustle and bustle, Moss View Cottage offers a wonderfully authentic Yorkshire Dales experience. Moss View Cottage is ideal for couples, families or friends looking to enjoy a peaceful countryside escape. And, because we love dogs, multiple dogs are welcome, making it the perfect base for adventures with your four-legged family members too.

Come and discover Moss View Cottage for yourself - your peaceful Yorkshire Dales escape awaits.
