The Cottage - large garden, next to nature reserve

A newly renovated property (completed April 2019) with two bedrooms - one double bed and two singles. New kitchen, bathroom and new comfy beds... Large garden. Close to Masham (10-15 mins walk across fields) in a quiet location next to Marfield Wetlands (nature reserve). Next to Old Fever Hospital, also available through AirBnb. Fast WIFI. Newly renovated, two bedroom property, one double bed and two singles. It's a 15 minute walk (across fields) to Masham itself, and Marfield Wetlands is literally on the doorstep. It's a unique space - massive garden, cosy but spacious cottage (perfect for four guests, blow up mattress can be added for five), dining and living area (open plan), open fire and wood burning stove. You can have the best of both worlds - countryside, fresh air, nature and all that Masham has to offer, plus all you need for a comfortable stay. The whole property - we expect you to treat it as 'home' for your stay. The property is next door to The Old Fever Hospital, which is our home as well as an AirBnb... So sometimes we might be next door, or sometimes it might be let (it is possible to let the two properties together on request). The Cottage has been renovated by Carolyn's mum and dad who live 30 minutes away. Any one of us will be available if required during your stay, but we will very much let you get on with your weekend and relax! Masham itself is a lovely town with independent shops, pubs, cafes, and is also famously home to both Theakston's and Black Sheep breweries. The Cottage has Marfield Wetlands literally on the doorstep - depending on the season, on a good day you can see tufted duck, crested grebe, herons, kingfisher, egret, or even deer. On a 'normal' day there are swans and greylag geese. Ducks and pheasants can often be seen in the garden and a woodpecker is a regular visitor to the bird feeders in the garden. Within easy reach of Harrogate (45 mins), York (1 hour), Leeds (1 hour). Ideally you would have a car. Trains to Northallerton and Thirsk are excellent, (only 2.5 hours from London), then 25/30 min drive or taxi to the property. Well behaved dogs accepted at £20 for the duration of the stay. We ask that dogs do not go upstairs in the property and that care is taken as it is carpeted throughout. This is also a nature reserve area, so dogs need to be kept on a lead around the property. Lots of good dog walks in the area though, and the nature reserve itself is great.
