Kestrel Cottage is a mid-terrace cottage close to the village of Silsden, just nine miles from Skipton. The cottage sleeps three people and has one double bedroom and one single together with shower room and separate ground floor basin and WC. Also in the cottage are a fitted kitchen and a sitting room with dining area and woodburner. Outside is ample off road parking and an enclosed garden with furniture. Situated on the edge of the stunning Yorkshire Dales, Kestrel Cottage is a delightful cottage to use as a base for exploring this lovely part of the country.

The pretty town of Silsden, set on the edge of the stunning Yorkshire Dales National Park, commands sweeping views of the River Aire and its valley, and has a thriving community with local amenities. Although Silsden was originally an agricultural town, the construction of the nearby Leeds and Liverpool Canal meant that it later became an important centre for the mill industry, however the local economy is now largely supported by tourism, and it has become a perfect place to stay and explore the local area. Down the Aire Valley lies historic Skipton, known as “The Gateway to the Dales”, a quaint market town boasting an ancient castle open to the public, a beautiful old parish church and a colourful market occupying the cobbled setts each side of the high street. In 2008, the Academy of Urbanism voted the high street as the best shopping spot in Britain, and the Copper Dragon Brewery, opened in 2002, is highly rated in the CAMRA listings.

From heather-clad moors and limestone scars, to market towns and the steady pace of country life - the sublime Dales await you! Where else in Britain is it as satisfying to sit and do nothing as it is to explore the numerous pursuits on offer?
