Sitting at the end of the sleepy village of Newbiggin in Bishopdale, recently converted from a traditional dales stable, is a very special two bedroomed property with large secluded garden. Bring your dog on holiday and enjoy the countryside walks together. Dogs welcome at the Street Head Inn a short walk away and the Fox and Hounds in West Burton which is a lovely walk over the fields. Easy travelling to Hawes, Leyburn and further afield.

Ideal for a walking holiday

Tucked away off the main road in the village of Newbiggin, the house is a converted agricultural building. It's the home of the owners for part of the year and so everything is of fine quality. It has a beautiful, well appointed kitchen and a separate dining area, leading on to a cosy sitting room. Upstairs are two comfortable double bedrooms with en suite facilities.
The only thing that I found a bit difficult is the unpredictable temperature of the water. The shower was too hot and on turning it down it went straight to cold. The bathroom wash hand basin needs to have the warm water running for several minutes to produce a steady flow of warm water. It's a similar situation in the kitchen sink.
That said, we loved the house and it's location in the middle of excellent walking country and hope to come again next year.

The Stable, being the owners’ home, is furnished and maintained to a higher degree than a typical holiday let. Of course that puts the onus on us to take extra care, but the stay at this lovely location more than compensates.

We had reason to make contact with the owners, who were extremely helpful and kind. Ditto the managing agents.

Jo and Nadine at Country Hideaways were very helpful and flexible in sorting out a week in this delightful cottage.
Not our first visit to the Dales or this cottage, just love the area and the comfortable cottage.
It certainly won’t be our last visit either!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in The Stable at Newbiggin. The accomodation was very comfortable and very well equipped and clean. The Stable is in a lovely quiet location, up a dead end road, with no passing traffic, great to get away from it all and relax.We enjoyed a glass of wine on the bench at the top of the garden, just listening to the birds and enjoying the view.
There is a lovely pub in the village, which is about a mile to walk from the property, which does good food.

The cottage was warm and comfortable, with everything we needed. We loved the garden, especially as it was full of birds. Newbiggin gave easy access to Bishopdale, Wensleydale and Upper Wharfedale so there was plenty of good walking and fine views. Our stay was a good rest and a great tonic!

What a find - the cottage was so comfortable, tucked away at the end of Newbiggin. The terraced gardens were lovely and a great variety of birds came to feed - even a pheasant turned up at the same time every morning - I named him Clive!! There is a deck at the top of the garden and we took advantage of it to partake of a cheeky wine and enjoy the fabulous views of an evening, we were so lucky as the weather was perfect for our walking break in the Dales. We were able to do walks directly from the cottage too, as well as driving to Muker, Aysgarth and Reeth for walks. West Burton is only a couple of miles to walk where there is a gorgeous village green and a waterfall, worth a visit. The location of The Stable couldn’t
be better. There is a pub - The Street Head Inn, probably a 10 minute walk away although we didn’t visit so couldn’t comment on what it is like. Thank you for the lovely bottle of wine on arrival, also plenty of tea bags, milk and biscuits. We would definitely like to return in the future. Thank you xx

It is an ideal base for walking. The car has not been moved since arriving. Very generous with tea, coffee, wine n biscuits. Bed was very comfortable. Place was very warm. Country Hideaways were very quick to sort problems out. On the negative side there should be an electric kettle and free standing microwave. And tea bags should be in a container.



Joanne at Country Hideaways replied more than 1 year ago
Thank you for leaving a 5 star review for your stay at The Stable. We were more than happy to help you during your stay. I'll pass your comments on to the owners regarding the hob kettle and integrated microwave. Hope to hear from you again when you are ready to return to the dales. Joanne

A delightful cottage in a great location for a walking holiday.

The sixth visit we have made to this lovely cottage and hope we will be back again. It is always warm and welcoming with lovely comfortable sofas in the relaxing lounge. Once we had understood the instructions for the TV and Freesat box the TV became easy to use however the signal disappeared on a few occasions so we were unable to watch a chosen programme. The kitchen has always been well equipped but a few more mugs would be useful. A good location for a walking holiday with many local footpaths and less than a mile to the local Street Head Inn where you can find a good meal.
