Foxes Retreat

Foxes Retreat is a four-bedroom cottage in Thornton Watlass with space for eight people and a private garden. Two kingsize beds occupy the ground floor alongside a family bathroom; upstairs are two twin rooms, one with its own shower cubicle and toilet. The living room centres on a wood-burning stove with a Smart TV, while the kitchen has an electric oven, induction hob, dishwasher and all the basics for self-catering. Wi-Fi, bed linen, towels and initial fuel for the stove are included.

The garden has a sitting area, barbecue and furniture. There is parking on site for one car. One dog stays free. No smoking throughout. Thornton Watlass itself has The Buck Inn serving food and real ales; the village also has a cricket pitch on the green. The property sits between the market towns of Masham and Bedale, with Middleham, Leyburn and Catterick accessible for days out exploring the Dales and surrounding countryside.
