This
lovely stone built
cottage is in one of the Dales' most picturesque villages. The cottage is set well back
from the road
with large gardens to front and rear. It
has a small south facing conservatory which enjoys breath taking views
over the surrounding countryside. With little to disturb the peace and
quiet, Fellside makes an ideal base for a relaxing Dales holiday.
Appletreewick
is
situated between village
of Grassington
and the bustling market town of Skipton (winner of the 2008 award for
