    The owner is always so helpful and kind and if we need anything at all is happy to help. The cottage itself is perfectly situated for easy access to the dales and is close to Leyburn for shopping. We love it so much we have booked up for 2025 already!

  • "The cottage was a pleasant surprise the cleanliness was to a very high standard and the beds very comfortable the space was roomy and airy just what we liked and beyond."

    In addition to information on local attractions and things to do in the manual and leaflets. The Owners were lovely and very warm. We had access to their gardens providing an Autom scent and colours. We relaxed in front of an open fire after our many days adventures the feel took me back home in Africa where we would gather around to share a meal and family love. Overall Yorkshire is indeed God’s Own Country. I would definitely recommend Coverdale Cottage to anyone and will definitely come back.

    Thank you very much for your kind comments! We look forward to welcoming you back in the future! Property Owner

  • "What can I say without repeating the previous six reviews."

    Yes our seventh stay and just as marvellous as the previous six! The cottage is very well laid out and having three bedrooms allows extra guests to stay or friends to drop in for a few days. The garden is amazing, huge with a sun trap to enjoy breakfast. Nothing is too much trouble for the lovely owners who live adjacent. And Carlton in the lesser frequented Coverdale valley has a great local pub and many walks from the door whilst Leyburn is nearby and excellent for the essential shopping trips. I feel an eighth stay coming on!

  • "We greatly enjoyed our recent week staying in Coverdale Cottage."

    Situated in beautiful and peaceful countryside, the cottage is spacious, well-furnished and equipped to a very high standard. On arrival we found it well-prepared and spotlessly clean. Owners Martin and Dagmar next door were friendly, helpful and not at all intrusive. Their lovely well-planted garden, to which we had access, is a constant feast for the eyes. Located in lesser-known Coverdale, this is an ideal location if your are seeking a quiet base from which to explore the Yorhshire Dales. There are fine country walks outside the door and the entire National Park is within an hour's drive. The Forester's Arms (the village pub) serves excellent meals and is just a 5-minute walk down the road.

  • "We had a great week in Coverdale Cottage."

    The house is lovely, very comfortably equipped, with a gorgeous garden, and friendly but not intrusive owners. Carlton itself is a great place to be, within easy reach of anything we needed, with a great pub and beautiful walks where it is still very much possible to walk for an hour and not see anyone - in quiet, under appreciated Coverdale - with nothing to do but enjoy the views and the wildlife. What's not to like?!

    Thank you so very much! We do love the Dale we live in, so very happy when visitors do too! Property Owner

  • "Glad when we asked for J-Cloth & Scrubber for kitchen it was supplied."

    Could have done with a bowl to wash dishes - don't use a dish washer machine. Pity the heating had been turned off before we arrived & the house was cold - so had to put that on high for several days. Useful to have a sink in the large bedroom. Unfortunately we left behind our night light on the landing outside the bathroom.

    The night storage heating was switched on 24 hours before arrival, but due to the unseasonal cold weather, the cottage was still warming up. We apologised profusely and demonstrated how to use the supplementary heating to provide additional and instant heat. We also lit the stove and ensured that it was drawing for you. The omission of the j cloth and scrubber, which was an oversight, which we quickly rectified. We talked through the information pack and as we live next door we are on hand throughout the week, when asked, your party said that everything was absolutely fine and that you were having a lovely time. Kind regards, Dagmar & Martin Property Owner

    The cottage is lovely, warm and cosy, yet spacious, and the perfect holiday home. It was lovely to meet the owners of the property, who live next door. Their care of the house is so evident in all the extra little touches they have considered, to make this such an outstanding property. The house is well equipped, the bed so comfortable, extra duvets should you need them, fluffy blankets to cosy you up in the lounge , not that we ever needed them, the house was always warm with a really efficient heating system. Just so much thought gone into little details, there are some lovely paintings on the walls for you to enjoy. The position in the lovely small Dales village made it a very restful rural retreat and with a really good pub five minutes walk away, what more could you want. We have stayed in many rental cottages over several years, but this is definitely one of the very best. Linda and Pete.

    As usual the property was spotlessly clean, and our hosts Dagma and Martin very welcoming and accommodating, particularly when we had friends over to stay in the second week.Milk, flowers and a loaf of bread were awaiting us when we arrived which was a lovely touch. Coverdale is a real gem, just a little off the beaten track, but within the Dales National Park and close to Leyburn which has all the amenities and shops you could wish for. The varied local walks, whilst very familiar to us, were all a delight, due to the verdant meadows and late summer flowers which have benefited from this years high rainfall.The local pub (The Foresters Arms) is in its second season of new management, and is a wonderfully welcoming dales pub, with great food and local Wensleydale brewery beers. One of the joys of this property is the beautiful garden with its mature herbaceous borders and large lush lawn and the sun trap seating area, lovely to enjoy breakfast in. We may be back for a seventh holiday as it is difficult to find a cottage and surroundings quite this lovely!

The garden is a real plus for us with huge amounts of space to relax in after a days walking. We love Coverdale, it is one of the lesser frequented dales but well connected to the rest of Wensleydale and via the other end of the dale to Wharfdale, with a great local village pub and walks straight from the door. We find the cottage perfectly appointed for visits from friends and family as it has ample space and flexibility for several guests.

    The cottage is in the traditional Dales style and has been tastefully modernised whilst retaining its original character. It is spotlessly clean and equipped to the highest standard. A big attraction for us is the outdoor space - a private patio and a large and outstandingly beautiful garden. Whilst the latter is shared with the hosts, their discretion makes you feel as if it is yours. We also love the location in Coverdale which feels off the beaten track despite its proximity to bustling villages like Leyburn. It’s a paradise for hill walkers with routes from the door in every direction and an abundance of bird life - we particularly enjoyed the curlews and plovers. In short, the property has everything for a relaxing and memorable holiday. We’ll certainly be back.

    We have a large driveway with plenty of room for 3 cars. We park our little car on the right leaving two spaces (much larger than in a typical Car Park) for guests on the left. Guests are normally perfectly happy with this arrangement. Rather than provide welcome gifts we've decided in all three of our cottages to focus running costs on providing very good quality furnishings and fittings. Over time we believe this has resulted in very good Guest feedback.

The property

Coverdale Cottage is a charming country cottage, situated next to the owner's home nestled in the picturesque village of Carlton-in-Coverdale near West Witton, looking out over a beautiful garden with views across fields to the hills beyond.

The south facing patio, in this delightful rural setting set within the Yorkshire Dales National Park, is the perfect spot for relaxing and taking in the surroundings.

Perfect for couples on a romantic weekend away or a longer stay with family and friends.

The traditional cottage is comfortably furnished and spacious.

The front door opens onto a hallway, useful for coat and boot storage, with access to a downstairs cloakroom.

The dining table in the bright, homely and well-equipped kitchen is ideal for enjoying breakfast before an adventure-filled day.

Alternatively, take your morning coffee out onto the private patio to enjoy the views over the shared garden bordered by the rose bed.

The lounge, also with views to the garden, has two plush sofas arranged around a multi-fuel stove, perfect for cosy evenings in.

The three well-appointed bedrooms promise a peaceful night’s sleep.

The first is presented as a king-size with a built-in wardrobe and dressing table.

It is joined by a double and a single room both with built-in wardrobes.
