About this property

Traditional Dales Cottage with stunning views,

Westbrook House is a terraced cottage located in a quiet non-drive through hamlet called Newbiggin in Bishopdale. There is off-road parking at the front of the property.

Dating from 1742 the cottage has got many traditional features including the original beams. Upstairs there are two bedrooms. The main bedroom has a superking-size bed with a memory foam mattress. Features include a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams. There is also a TV & lovely views both of the front & rear of the property.

The 2nd bedroom has a double bed made from solid oak with two bedside tables. The room also has exposed beams & lovely views to the rear of the property.

Along a corridor there is a large, spacious bathroom with a separate bath, shower & a double-sink vanity unit with storage baskets underneath for your toiletries etc. There is also a wall-mounted towel rail which provides extra warmth. We also provide towels, toilet roll etc free of charge

Downstairs - there is a cosy 3rd bedroom with a Double-size brass bed.

The main lounge has two sofas able to seat 5 people. And a large bean bag for a 6th person. There's also a multi-fuel stove which can burn both coal & logs (all of which are included in the price). There's also a large full HD 4k TV, a Humax FREESAT box, a DVD player, & a selection of DVDs. Full fibre broadband (WiFi) is also provided free of charge. There are also lovely views of the rear of the property overlooking the valley.

From the lounge you go through to the kitchen-dining area. The dining table seats six people. The kitchen itself is brand new, and is fitted with all the latest mod cons e.g double oven, induction hob, microwave, double-toaster etc.

There are gardens to the front & rear of the property. The front garden area is largely paved & with tubs of flowers & shrubs. There's also a pear tree by the House itself. It also gets a lot of sun in the morning & early afternoon so it's a nice area to sit out & have a morning cuppa & even chat with passersby. The rear garden is much bigger with plenty of space to stroll about & a lawn that slopes down to a field. There are also a metal table with six chairs for your to sit out / eat on & enjoy the stunning view across the Dale.

Beautiful cottage and superb location
Absolutely loved our stay. Cottage very cosy and very well equipped and clean. Excellent location. Only down side was it did not have a downstairs toilet so a queue sometimes with 4 adults staying there. The cottage does have a storage area under stairs with a window which could be utilised for this if owner was inclined to convert. Owner was really helpful - excellent communication by email and telephone. Will definitely stay again!

Lovely home in the Dales
We stayed here for Christmas and the home was perfect for what we needed. All the rooms are bigger than expected and the bathroom is really nice. Everything was clean throughout and the plentiful supply of wood for the fire was great over the Christmas break. We would certainly stay again and recommend to others.

What a place!
From the very first contact from Phil to the minute we left everything was perfect. Excellent communications, great instructions for check in, stunning location but wow oh wow... the cottage was the best we have stayed in. If it was for sale I'd buy it in a heart beat. Defo we will book it again. Thanks for everything Phil.

Lovely cosy cottage
Excellent communication from Phil before, during and after our stay. Really made us feel welcome. Great location for accessing the Yorkshire Dales. There was a nearby pub within walking distance and it was great to visit Aysgarth Falls and Malham. A cosy cottage which was well equipped. Would highly recommend.

Ideal location for an overdue getaway
We very much enjoyed our stay at Westbrook House. It was both spacious and cosy, and very well-equipped. Phil was a thoughtful and attentive host, checking in on us on a day when the weather was particularly bad. The self-service check-in and check-out processes were smooth and straightforward. The Internet connection is excellent, and the stove in the lounge works really well. It's particularly pleasing that the fuel for the stove is included. The location is perfect - extremely quiet and with excellent views across Bishopdale from the back of the house. The garden is lovely, although we didn't spend a great deal of time in it. We very much enjoyed watching the birds using the bird feeder(s) by the lounge window. The Ordnance Survey map centred on the house was a nice touch. We did several good walks from the house leading to good views of neighbouring dales.

About the host

Hosted by Phil Brewster

Host profile image
Despite this not being our primary residence, my partner & I love the Dales, and escape here as often as work allows. But as we can't be here all the time we don't see why others shouldn't enjoy the use of such a lovely property, in such a gorgeous setting. We've done lots of work to refurbish much of the property, including new carpets & a newly-fitted kitchen with all mod-cons. We aim to make your stay as enjoyable and as hassle-free as possible. And hope that at the end of your stay you'll feel like you don't want to leave.

Why they chose this property

Quite simply you'll be staying in one of the most beautiful parts of the country. Not only are you right in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, but it's the perfect base from which to explore the whole of Dales.

If you like walking, there are literally dozens you can choose from - from gentle riverside strolls to hikes over windswept moors. If you like visiting attractions the choice is extensive - from arboretums, museums & castles, to the world-famous Wensleydale cheese-making creamery & Hardraw waterfall.

What makes this property unique

The cottage is full of character. A cosy, comfortable mix of modern and traditional. Whether you like stunning views, country walks, or simply gazing into a log fire, Westbrook House has got it all. The village is lovely & peaceful, so if you're looking to escape the hustle & bustle & just want to relax and unwind, then Westbrook is perfect. The neighbours are very friendly & always willing to help.
