Laykin Cottage, Low Row Near Richmond In The Yorkshire Dales

Laykin is a 4 bedroom traditional stone cottage which sleeps 7. 3 bathrooms. Big kitchen diner, sitting room, wood burning stove and underfloor heating.

There is a boot room for drying and storing walking gear.

A small terraced garden which faces south has stunning views and there is plenty of parking and storage area in the shed for bikes. The garden has big drops so children need to be supervised. It's not suitable for football games.

The perfect get away, peaceful and remote. Situated in an elevated position above the village of Low Row in Swaledale in North Yorkshire with superb views of hay meadows, the river Swale and moorland. However there is a great gastro pub in walking distance and shops in the nearby village of Reeth 4 miles away.

Access is by track which is steep in parts and inaccessible in snow/ice.

Refurbished to a very high standard and very warm and modern inside. Family friendly with high chair, cot and toys, and ideal as a base for exploring the Dales. Lovely walks from the door and great mountain biking.

No smoking. Not suitable for stag or hen nights or for wheelchairs.

This is a family friendly get away. A wonderful retreat.

We accept dogs as long as they stay in their own bed downstairs and don't go on the furniture. Max 2 dogs.

Spotlessly Clean, Incredible Location
Laykin cottage has the most amazing views, walks within centimetres of the cottage and was the perfect base for our family escape. The property was completely spotless and had everything we needed, especially the kitchen which was really well equipped. We loved it!

I don’t think I have ever left a review for anything before but my family and I really enjoyed our stay at Laykin Cottage. It was spotlessly clean and well furnished. The owner very kindly left a welcome hamper which was a lovely touch. The views are stunning and a great base to enjoy the local area. Hopefully we will stay there again soon.

Fabulous
It is the perfect getaway for peaceful outdoors break. I have stayed in a lot of cottages over the years and this one is of a very high standard. The owner was responsive when we broke something and helpful too. Comfortable beds! Everything you need! Thoughtful!

Beautiful holiday home set in stunning scenery
We had a wonderful family holiday staying at Laykin Cottage. The house is very well equipped and the welcome basket of goodies was a lovely touch. The house is very clean and the beds were super comfortable. It was a perfect location for exploring the local area and we did a lovely walk starting from the cottage itself. The owners were very helpful and promptly responded to all our questions.
