Combining traditional features with modern touches for a cosy and welcoming cottage, Campanula House is comfortably furnished to a high standard, and offers spacious accommodation perfect for couples, friends or a family to enjoy a getaway in beautiful Wensleydale. The homely kitchen welcomes you with its inglenook fireplace and wood burner. Modern styled kitchen/dining room units are well-equipped with everything you need to rustle up a family meal.

The Yorkshire Dales offer spectacular scenery and an abundance of walks of all ability levels to explore.
