If you are craving a cosy getaway for two or a quiet friend's weekend, The Bothy is a great choice. It is a traditional, restored stone cottage sitting right in the heart of the delightful village of Cononley only three miles from the bustling town of Skipton.

As you walk through the door you will be welcomed by a charming open plan living space designed with stylish interiors yet celebrating its heritage. Cosy sheepskins and fluffy throws complement the sumptuous sofa. The beams give a nod to the history of the building and add a touch of nostalgia. The contemporary kitchen has everything you need to cook up a romantic meal for two and even has a slow cooker and an air fryer, you can come home to a tasty meal ready and waiting for you.

As the sun goes down and you retire to bed, a pretty bedroom awaits with crisp linens and a fluffy duvet for you to sink into and dream of adventures to come.

Across the hallway sits the bright and sunny shower-room, where you can refresh and prepare for a fun day ahead. In front of the cottage is a table and chairs, please be aware these are on the narrow pavement which is at the side of the road. Sit awhile and watch the world go by.

The Bothy is the perfect place for you and your canine companion to unwind after a day out in glorious North Yorkshire, maybe a visit to Grassington to see where the filming of "All Creatures Great and Small" takes place. Planning your next day out is a must and the owner has thoughtfully provided local guides and maps to help you decide.

Doggies are very well catered for with treats, toys, blankets and bowls, doggie heaven.

The Bothy is situated in an enviable position, sitting as it does right in the heart of the village and close to all the Yorkshire Dales National Park has to offer. Cononley has two renowned real ale pubs within very easy walking distance, a local shop, hairdresser and railway station. For steam buffs a ride on the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway embraces the steam era and the scenic Settle to Carlisle line is definitely Instagram worthy.

Grassington is one of the filming locations for the James Herriot series "All Creatures Great and Small", walk in the footsteps of the Yorkshire Vet and hunt out other filming locations on a day out round the Dales.

Only three miles away is the historic market town of Skipton with its 11th Century castle sitting atop the high street lined with many shops, cafes and restaurants, and a canal with longboats travelling along. Spend the day and visit the Skipton Museum and the Craven Museum and Gallery.

Cononley is surrounded by beautiful walks, challenging hikes and cycle rides. Head out into the Yorkshire Dales and walk "Miles Without Stiles" making walking more accessible for all. Cycling in the Dales features some of the best cycling routes in the country. The Dark Skies of the Yorkshire Dales are renowned for their astronomical conditions and wildlife abounds too, you will be spoilt for choice.
