Ellerton House

This charming cottage, located on a hilltop above the River Swale in Yorkshire’s Richmond, offers the perfect, rustic abode for your friends and family to gather with up to two dogs. Settle in for an evening of festivities in the inviting living room decorated in a palette of joyful floral accents.

Slumber on the sofa in front of the wood burner after a day of sightseeing in the local area. There’s a large kitchen to prepare meals for the group, then perhaps you’ll want to linger a while longer in the elegant dining room complete with a Smart TV and a second wood burner.

For your convenience, you’ll find a handy utility room large enough to take care of all your laundry needs, plus a contemporary-styled shower room. On the first floor, you’ll find four well-appointed bedrooms comprising two king-size bedrooms and two twin bedrooms tucked under the eaves.

Down the hallway, there is a large family bathroom with a bath and WC. The pretty, enclosed courtyard garden is the perfect venue to host a get-together with a BBQ, patio furniture and a bubbling hot tub.

Private parking for up to two cars adds to the property’s convenience. With the Yorkshire Dales and Swaledale on your doorstep, you’ll want to take advantage of the wonderful scenery comprised of lush meadows and rolling hills to explore.

Closer to home, the market town of Richmond is the perfect shopping destination with its enticing array of boutiques, shops, pubs, cafes and restaurants. Make sure to visit the majestic Richmond Castle, just 0.5 miles away, considered one of the best-preserved examples of 11th-century architecture.
