Willow Cottage

The original Willow cottage, and still the one guests come back to. Two proper bedrooms, a lounge with a fireplace you'll actually light, and a kitchen-diner that seats four — though you may not use it much, because the family's restaurant is next door. Pateley Bridge's high street is out the front door; the River Nidd is a five-minute walk. It suits couples travelling together, small families, and anyone who wants the Dales without the drive to dinner.

And every morning, a cooked breakfast next door at The Willow. No charge, no voucher, no catch.
