Property code: 77577

This is an exceptional property set in Nidderdale, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It offers the best of both worlds, with breathtaking Yorkshire Dales scenery and cycling routes to explore and the cosmopolitan spa town of Harrogate just a short drive away. This is the perfect property for walkers, cyclists and nature lovers as well as those who love a more vibrant scene. The property is tucked away on a secluded hillside in the southern Yorkshire Dales, offering the comfort of a luxury holiday, with all the cosiness and warmth of a log cabin escape but on a grander scale.

On the ground floor you’ll find a spacious, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. A wood burner fills the property with warmth, while floor to ceiling windows offer uninterrupted views of the spectacular countryside. The stylish lounge features sumptuous sofas to curl up on and beautiful wooden floors, with the kitchen located to the rear of this area. Its elegant units are well stocked with all the equipment you’ll need to rustle up and serve a family dinner, including an electric oven and gas hob, microwave, fridge, freezer and dishwasher. A washing machine and tumble dryer are also available in the utility area on the landing - handy if you have walking clothes to wash and dry off. The dining area is also part of the open-plan downstairs, a delight on colder mornings when you can enjoy a long lazy breakfast by the fire. The table seats everyone comfortably, so plenty of room for the whole family. There are also two lovely bedrooms on the ground floor with a further bedroom upstairs. In the first bedroom, you’ll find a lovely, king-size bed and double aspect windows letting in lots of light. Next door is the second bedroom, a twin, perfect for little ones. Both bedrooms share a ground floor shower room with walk-in shower and WC. Make your way up the bespoke wooden staircase to find the stunning first-floor master bedroom with a super-king-size bed and access to a private glass balcony. Snuggle up on the chair here at dusk and enjoy trying to spot any of the local wildlife. The bathroom is set just across the landing, this room boasts a freestanding bath, separate walk-in shower and WC.

Doors from the open-plan space leading directly out onto the wooden deck to the front of the lodge. With elegant garden furniture, it’s the perfect spot for a sundowner, with blankets provided to keep you snug as the sun sets and a bubbling hot tub ready and waiting for you. Beyond the deck, explore the acres of grounds in which the lodge is set, discover the stream and packhorse bridge. There are also sheep and cows roaming freely which graze in the adjoining fields. There is off-road parking available for up to three cars.

Please note that the grounds of the lodge include a pond and children must be supervised at all times in and around the property. For larger groups, there is an identical second lodge - also sleeping 6 in 3 beautiful bedrooms. The second lodge has its own large, outdoor grounds and plenty of space between for each property to enjoy its own privacy. Please enquire if you would like to check availability to book both properties at the same time.

Hi, if you are looking for first class accommodation, I would recommend Silver Birch highly. Local residents barn owl, roe deer, bats. The only thing, future bookings allow dogs in White Willow Lodge and this puts me off booking again! If this doesn't bother you then this place is a worth every penny.

Fabulous lodge set in a great location with everything we needed for our stay. The welcome hamper was perfect and just what we needed after a long drive up. Having the two outside seating areas was great. We used the hot tub most days probably because it was on the decking and we didn't need to trudge across a courtyard etc. like we have had to do Read morein the past. All in all we were very happy with our stay at Silver Birch Lodge Hide

This was a perfect haven, beautifully and luxuriously kitted out and maintained. Spacious open plan with views over the Washburn valley with all its wildlife (including Red Kites, rabbits and some friendly sheep - that we watched from the Hot Tub).
