The Coast to Coast walk passes very close by the village but for those that are not so keen on such a challenge, there are many less strenuous walks in the area. For example, there is a beautiful walk that takes you nearly all the way to Grinton on the banks of the River Swale at the foot of the valley. Whilst you stroll along the river bank you can take in the stunning views of the rolling hills either side of you, which is stunning on a summers day! ...

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. ...

We chose this property after reading lots of highly rated reviews by previous guests and the cottage lived up to the praise. Fantastic location in a quiet village with great views. The cottage was very homely and welcoming with some great attention to detail. The kitchen was well equipped with quality appliances and accessories. We were grateful for the generous welcome pack which came in useful. Highly recommended.

Swaleview is an exceptional holiday cottage in a stunning part of the Yorkshire Dales , so convenient for visiting the surrounding area & amazing views right from your front door. The holiday was made even better by the fact that the cottage is truly dog friendly !

Lovely Stay at Swales View . Neil (the owner) was a great host … there if you needed him . We felt right at home straight away . Hope to return
Ali –
Wonderful cottage, so peaceful and views were amazing. Cottage was well equipped and very homely. Owner made us very welcome and was nearby if we had any questions or issues. Thoroughly enjoyed a variety of stunning walks direct from the cottage, and also exploring local area. Best bit was enjoying morning coffee on the little patio, soaking in the view and enjoying the peace and quiet. Would definitely recommend this cottage to others.

This is a real gem of a cottage situated on a small stretch of green lane with car parking nearby and everything is provided for your comfort. The owner lives opposite and he is very friendly and accommodating, nothing is too much trouble! There is a tiny enclosed piece of garden and patio where it is safe to let the dog out and plenty of walks from the door including along the River Swale. There is a really good pub within five minutes walking distance in the village and it is just a short car journey to Reeth and Muker and Gunnerside. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there and plan to return later in the year!

A beautiful place to stay. We walked, ran, fished, fed the lambs and barely used the car all week. The house is perfect with stunning views. Everything you need is there. It’s homely and the high quality kitchen is well equipped with everything you need. Two log burners makes it really cosy. Views from the beds are wonderful. Neil (in the barn next to the house) was so helpful – even brought in our shopping and lit the fire for our arrival. The welcome pack was generous too!

We had a great week in Swale View and it’s probably one of the best holiday homes we’ve stayed in. Really quiet, excellently equipped with everything you need and in a brilliant location. Really good value for money and we highly recommend.

Lovely homely, warm cottage with plenty of space for kids and a dog. We especially loved the cosy fire and excellent kitchen. Perfect location to enjoy this wonderful part of the world. Would book again.

Swale View is located in the quiet hamlet of Low Row. It’s a traditional cottage set back from the road on a dirt track. If you’re planning a mainly outdoors activity holiday, it’s a perfect base. The cottage is very well equipped, comfortable beds, lots of hot water, great drying room and dog friendly. There is also a lovely multi fuel stove in the lounge, great for cosy nights in. We enjoyed our stay.
Marcus –
We have just spent a fantastic two weeks in this stunning cottage. It’s very much felt like home from home so as a family we settled really quickly and it has everything you need for a self catering holiday. Neil, the owner, made us feel very welcome and was very attentive. The area and location is stunning and there are some beautiful walks to be had! We are already missing the cottage and will most certainly be back in the near future! I would highly recommend this Cottage as it is one of the very best ones we have stayed in!
Thank you for the excellent communication throughout the booking and settling in process.

We had a great stay and loved the house. For us it was a walking weekend and we found the house perfect for walks from the door. We also appreciated how dog friendly it was. There’s also a rear pub in the village where we had a lovely evening meal and a lunch too.

The cottage is idyllic, you could never get tired of the view. Neil was the perfect host, always on hand for advice on the area. Swaledale was a new area for us – exceeded our expectations. We will be back…. Thanks Neil
Nicola –
A lovely cottage in a great location. Had everything that you needed. Host on hand to help. Good dog walks in local area, particularly enjoyed the walks along the river nearby and up in the hills.

We had the loveliest week at Swale View. The cottage is beautiful inside and out, and the view as gorgeous as the photos show. We would definitely book to go there again.
Tom –
Excellent location, well kitted out and really smooth and relaxed communication / check in / stay. Highly recommended.
Carol Barlow –
A fabulous place from which to explore Swaledale with or without dogs. An extremely comfortable, spotlessly clean and well maintained cottage with all mod cons in the kitchen. The bed linen in particular was luxurious. Wonderful views and lots of great walks right on your doorstep along with bike riding the ‘Swale Trail’. I would recommend a visit to the Punchbowl – only a short walk from the house – a perfect end to a day exploring the Dales.
Amanda –
Beautiful Views. Very Peaceful.
Jamie –
The cottage was great we all loved it. The kitchen especially, and the sitting room were really well equipped and cosy.
Laura –
Lovely cottage, very quiet but close enough to get in some good walks – the Swale Trail is great – along with lots of nearby pubs plus the Fish & Chips van on a Friday night. What could be better!
Anne Wyatt –
Swale View was a good choice for a family reunion with 5 adults and one dog. The spacious kitchen, along with the separate dining and living rooms allowed us to do separate activities at times and not feel crowded. Welcomed the heated large porch area for loading and unloading the cars and muddy boots/coats. Little paved garden area was helpful for letting the dog out when needed. Cosy with the burners lit too.
Hannah at Holiday Home Yorkshire was super helpful when we had one of two issues, responding very promptly and welcoming our feedback.
Emma –
Swale View was a lovely cottage, beautiful views, lovely character and modern interior. Hannah was a great host, answered all our questions promptly and did everything she could to make sure we were comfortable. We would definitely go and stay here again!
