Low Row 1 mile. A delightful, 300-year old stone-built detached cottage, located high above the Swaledale valley just one mile from Low Row and Gunnerside. Boasting magnificent views of the surrounding countryside, this Low Row cottage is a great base for family and friends to get together and explore this beautiful area. Renovated to retain much of its original character, this traditional Low Row cottage boasts a sitting room with open fire, a spacious kitchen diner, and three cosy bedrooms. The accommodation in this Low Row cottage certainly exudes olde-worlde charm. There are fabulous walks from the doorstep of this cottage near Low Row, and the south-facing patio provides a wonderful location to relax and unwind whilst enjoying the magnificent views of the Swaledale countryside. This is a Low Row cottage not to be missed. Within a good walk is the village pub, which serves fine ales and good food, whilst three miles away is the popular village of Reeth. Just a short drive from this Low Row cottage are the market towns of Hawes, Leyburn and Richmond. Aysgarth Falls, Semerwater and Hardraw Force are all nearby, ensuring this Low Row cottage is a perfect base for enjoying all the many attractions and scenic splendour the area has to offer.

The village of Low Row is made up of a scattering of traditional farms and cottages to the north of the River Swale. The village of Reeth, just a short drive away, dates back to Saxon times and became of sufficient size and importance to be mentioned in the Domesday Book. Later it became a centre for hand-knitting and local lead mining. Its eighteenth-century houses and hotel clustered around the triangular village green make it one of the very popular Dales villages. Just short drives away are Aysgarth Falls, Semerwater and Hardraw Force (England's highest single drop waterfall at 99ft).

Reviews

The cottage is very clean and well equipped with good views, and we don’t mind the odd dog barking. However the neighbors dogs bark all night. Previous people have complained about it but nothing has been done and this has been since 2017. The neighbor has lots of dogs which run all over the place and we witnessed him abuse the dogs, which we have reported. If you want a quiet peaceful stay, do not stay here.

Beautiful scenery, gorgeous views, you could go for fantastic walks straight from the cottage.

Rated by Mr Hoogteijling reviewed on 5th August 2012

We wanted a place in Dales that gave us some nice seclusion as we were coming from a huge city with major traffic jams. This cottage and surrounding area was just the place. It was beautiful and the cottage was very well equipped with whatever we needed. We will definitely go back.
