The history of Reeth dates way back to the 18th Century, where it used to be the capital of the lead mining industry and a local centre for hand knitting, with a population of 1,460. However, the area has evolved into the centre of the beautiful farming community that we see today. At the heart of Reeth is a triangular green, surrounded by the local community, pubs, teas rooms, restaurant and gift shops. Beyond the immediate surrounds the village is overlooked by the stunning fells of Fremington Edge and Calver Hill which we can guarantee will provide a stunning backdrop to your visit. ...

Richmond was founded by the Normans in 1071, and is overflowing with history, mostly centred around one of the finest tourist attractions in North Yorkshire – Richmond Castle. The castle, finished in 1086, is one of the greatest Norman fortresses in the UK and well worth a visit, not only to hear the history of the unruly North but to see the stunning views of the Dales from the castle keep and the tranquil Cockpit garden. ...

Had a great long weekend at this flat. Reeth itself is a wonderful place to stay, with walks and cycling paths all around the area to explore the Dales. There are a couple of good pubs a short walk away, a Post Office and shop, gift shop etc. The flat was very clean and quiet, perfect for a break away from home.

We enjoyed our stay. The flat was clean and comfortable with everything we needed, also more spacious than we expected, with plenty of room in the lounge. The position, overlooking the green in Reeth, is very convenient and the views are beautiful. Hannah was very helpful, particularly in allowing some flexibility for check in and check out timings. A great place to stay in the Dales.

Great and spacious flat right on the village green. Perfect for long walks in and around Swaledale or shorter ones to the pubs, bakeries and the ice cream parlour Reeth has to offer. The flat itself has everything needed for a short stay. Despite being a good size and an old building you can easily get it cozy and warm. Would love to return as there is plenty more to explore!

A lovely, very spacious cottage, in a very convenient spot for walking and visiting great beauty spots. Very clean & all modern conveniences. Great wifi connection.

The flat was immaculate, the kitchen was fully equipped, lovely thick towels the bed was so comfortable, the view from the windows were amazing, we couldn’t fault it, the only drawback is the amount of stairs in the flat, but don’t let this put you off, the flat was worth it.
