Dog Friendly Hotels North Yorkshire

Wellgate is a delightful stone-built cottage that dates back to the 1850s and offers a comfortable stay located in the stunning Upper Nidderdale village of Middlesmoor which is set just outside of Pateley Bridge.
This semi-detached cottage has plenty of character with a fireplace and wood burner adding additional heat and charm. Wellgate offers couples a wonderful holiday retreat whilst being ideally located to explore all that the Yorkshire Dales has to offer. Relax in the peace and tranquillity and enjoy the spectacular scenery whatever the season with stunning views from the front of the cottage. On the ground floor is the comfortable living area, a great space to relax in front of the wood burner with a glass of red on those colder evenings after a day exploring the local area. On the same floor you have a well-presented, well-equipped, country-style kitchen that has plenty of room for food preparation. In addition, there is a ground-floor bathroom which includes a shower cubicle and heated towel rail. Up one flight of stairs, you are presented with two bedrooms, stylishly furnished, and decorated and both with fresh cotton linen guaranteeing a perfect night’s sleep. The master bedroom also offers en-suite facilities. To the front of the cottage, there is a small seating area that gives you breathtaking views over the stunning countryside from all angles. This is a fantastic place to watch the sunset whilst having a well-deserved glass of fizz al fresco style.
There is so much to see and do in the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. For walkers, there are so many scenic walks straight from your doorstep so make sure you pack your walking books. For cyclists, the Pateley Bridge to Masham route and the challenging Cote de Lofthouse climb featured as part of the 2017 Tour de Yorkshire and the 2019 World Cycling Championships are also nearby. Towns close by include Pateley Bridge which is a 7-mile drive away giving you quick access to shops, café, restaurants and pubs. The market town of Masham is 10 miles away, and further afield, the cathedral city of Ripon is 40 minutes away. The fashionable spa town of Harrogate is a 45-minute drive. Should you wish to leave the driving and cooking for another day there is a very characterful and proper, traditional North Yorkshire pub that sells locally brewed beer and bar food, and is just one minute’s walk away from the cottage. Nearby National Trust attractions include the magnificent Fountains Abbey and Studley Royal near Ripon and Brimham Rocks in Summerbridge.
