Stonecroft is a traditional style, 18th century stone, Yorkshire Dales cottage, quietly situated in a cobbled lane, just off the Market Square in the historic Wensleydale town of Middleham.

The imposing castle is a short distance away and all the town’s amenities are within a minute's walk. There is a regular bus service. The nearest railway station is 15 miles away in Northallerton. The major road route, the old Roman Great North Road (now the A1) is 12 miles to the east.

Although recently totally renovated to a high standard, Stonecroft still retains much character, including exposed beams in all rooms.

Accommodation comprises: lounge, with colour TV, BBC Digi-box and video; spacious dining kitchen with cooker, microwave, fridge freezer, filter coffee maker, auto washer, tumble dryer and CD/Cassette/Radio Tuner. On the first floor there are two double-bedded bedrooms. One is particularly spacious and overlooks the roof tops into Wensleydale.

The modern bathroom has a slipper bath with shower over. Central heating, if needed, is provided by a multi-fuel stove set in an inglenook fireplace. Moveable heaters are also provided and water can be heated through the immersion heater.

The period oak furnishings and subtle concealed lighting have been carefully selected to make your stay cosy and comfortable.

Outside, to the front of the cottage, there is private parking and a small, south-facing patio area on which are many container-grown shrubs and plants.
