Anna's Cottage





Description:

Anna's Cottage is a traditional dales cottage built in local stone and situated in a peaceful part of the village where just a few yards walk will open up the rich vista of Wensleydale and beyond. The cottage is an integral part of the main house but self-contained with its own access. A flagged path leads over a small rockery garden with rustic bench to the entrance which opens to a hallway with space for boots and coats. Off the hallway is a cosy lounge with dining area and a small fitted kitchen. The lounge has a marble and tiled Victorian fireplace with real flame effect cast iron electric fire, deep-coved ceiling and pine window seat with shutters. A pine stairway with decorative balustrade rises from the lounge to a bedroom with double bed and an adjoining shower room with washbasin and toilet. The tasteful conversion of Anna's Cottage, with the retention of many original features, enhanced by the warmth of pine fitments along with comfortable furnishings and tasteful decoration, provides a very good standard of accommodation.

Duvets and pillows are provided with linen and towels included in the rent. Oil- fired central heating and electricity included. Colour television, CD player, combined convection oven/ grill/microwave oven, shaver point, fan heater, electric blanket. Off road parking to the side of the property. Shop, pub 2 miles. Bus route in village. Sorry, not suitable for pets. Strictly non smoking.



Location:

Preston is a small south facing village hugging a sheltered escarpment on the slopes of mid-Wensleydale facing the magnificent slopes and steps of Penhill. The village grew around the once rich lead mines whose remains and ruins are still evident in the landscape. The houses too reflect the mining history as well as agricultural roots with quaint stone terraces and cottage gardens nestling to form a tranquil haven on the hillside. The elevated position gives stunning views over Bishopdale, Wensleydale and out towards the Vale of York. Many footpaths centre on the village so there is plenty of opportunity for walking and also within walking distance, on the same escarpment, is the stately Bolton Castle where Mary, Queen of Scots was imprisoned in 1568.
