Faith Hill, Askrigg


If your idea of a great holiday is to stay in a traditional, comfortable, detached cottage with beamed ceilings and an open fire in a popular village with 3 pubs and shops, then Faith Hill could be the cottage for you. It offers farmhouse style living with a large living room, a dining kitchen and 3 bedrooms.

There has been a cottage called Faith Hill on the same site since the 1700’s, so that the cottage and this area of the village both have the same name and no-one can now remember which came first!. Faith Hill is owned by and adjoins the working village farm, Town Head, and the owners supply the local area with milk, eggs and cream, so you will never run short of these during your stay!

Accommodation

Faith Hill is a traditional double fronted cottage next to the quiet road over from Wensleydale into Swaledale. There is small front entrance porch and the front door opens directly into the large, beamed ceilinged, dual aspect living room with its comfortable seating around the open fire, and traditional dresser. There are a couple of steps up into the farmhouse style dining kitchen. This room also has windows to both the front and back of the cottage, at the rear overlooking the small ‘garth’ behind the cottage, a local dialect word derived from Norse for a small grass paddock close to the farmhouse.

From the kitchen there is a small lobby with the back door leading out into a paved patio area with garden furniture, and from this into an enclosed area next to the cottage, with ample parking for at least 3 cars.
