Arngill is a self-catering two bedroom cottage, sleeping four, set at the head of Swaledale in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. An ideal base for a wide range of year round activities including walking, climbing, caving, riding, mountain-biking, bird-watching, painting, photography or just plain relaxing. If you are an historic and classic car enthusiast a number of famous rallies, including the Beamish, pass by. The historic landscape is rich in wild-flower meadows, bubbling brooks (Straw Beck flows right opposite the cottage), rivers and waterfalls, ancient paths and tracks and an abundance of wildlife. Originally built as a Wesleyan Chapel in 1845 (see history) and carefully renovated over the last ten years, this charming and well-equipped cottage is full of character. It has a stone flagged entrance hall, stairs gently curving to the first floor, oak floors, lime-washed walls, a large open-plan living area with beamed ceiling, stone and lime rendered fireplace with wood-burning stove. The kitchen is stone flagged with vaulted ceiling, original exposed beams and a hand crafted kitchen. The cottage has marvellous views all around, down the valley towards the famously pretty village of Muker with its 16th century church tower rising above the stone roofs and up towards Kisdon, Ivelet Side and Muker Side. The cottage is a two minute walk from the Village Shop and Tea Rooms, post office, craft shops (Swaledale Woolens and the Old School Gallery) and a cosy pub serving good food and traditional local ales - The Farmers Arms. Arngill is available for weekly lets throughout the year, and occasional short lets out of high season.
