The Cowshed is part of Holme Farm, the farmhouse and cowshed both being built in 1653, the oldest buildings in the village of Lofthouse. Holme Farm was built with a loft area for wool drying, hence the village being named Lofthouse. Holme Farm was originally a Friary occupied by lay monks working the lucrative wool industry in the Yorkshire Dales, and owned by Fountains Abbey.
The Cowshed is situated in the picturesque and quiet village of Lofthouse, at the top of beautiful Nidderdale. The local pub is a short walking distance from the accommodation and provides wholesome food and a warm friendly atmosphere.
Beyond Lofthouse there are the villages of Ramsgill with its Michelin starred restaurant, Middlesmoor with a good pub, and Wath with a smart hotel restaurant.
The market towns of Pateley Bridge, and Masham are nearby.
Harrogate with its chic shopping, cafes and restaurants, and the city of Ripon are less than an hours drive away.
The area around Lofthouse has numerous scenic footpaths, the Nidderdale Way and 2 other long distance paths passing close by. This is serious walking and cycling country.
The National Trust attractions of Fountains Abbey and Brimham Rocks are worth a visit.
Further afield the Yorkshire Dales offer a wealth of interesting places to visit.

"What a lovely cottage, We have stayed in a number of rentals and this is by far one of the best. The cottage had a lovely feel to it with all of the facilities being absolutely top notch and all needs and requirements catered for. The beds were super comfy and the showers were brilliant. The ambience of the cottage was perfect for lazy days and nights cozying up by the log fire. The local pub serves good Yorkshire ale and the food was exactly what you want from a pub. Lovely local walks and with Pateley Bridge a short drive, its the perfect spot. Would highly recommend this cottage and will definitely visit again."
