Sybills Cottage is a quietly located, newly renovated two-bedroom stone home in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The renovation has retained original features—stone staircase, sash windows and exposed beams—while providing a comfortable sitting room with open fire and a well-fitted dining kitchen. The property has operated successfully as a holiday let for 14 years and would suit continuing as a holiday business, a second home or a buy-to-let investment.
The plot is modest: a small south-facing cottage garden at the front and a stone-flagged patio with gravel drive at the rear provide low-maintenance outdoor space and off-street parking. Accommodation is arranged over two floors with a larger double and a smaller second bedroom plus a single bathroom, making the layout best suited to couples, small families or holiday guests rather than larger households.
Practical points to note: heating is by oil boiler with underfloor heating, the walls are original granite/whinstone (no added insulation assumed) and the home’s Energy Rating is around band D. Broadband speeds in the area are slow despite excellent mobile signal. These factors, and the small internal footprint, are important if you plan full-time living or heavy remote working.
Set on a quiet lane close to the Beck and only a five-minute walk from Hawes, the cottage benefits from very low local crime, good village amenities and strong tourist footfall. For investors it offers immediate rental history and tourism demand; for owner-occupiers it offers characterful, low-upkeep rural living with easy access to walks and village services.
