The Detail...
Right on the boundary of one of Britain’s most celebrated areas of natural beauty, the Yorkshire Dales, Evergreen is an architecturally quaint self-catering property for four, replete with high-end contemporary luxuries. A short walk from small independent shops, restaurants and pubs, this is the perfect rural retreat for up to four guests looking to explore the majesty and dramatic topography of the Dales.
From the moment you step into Evergreen, you’ll know that you’ve made the right decision on where to stay. A cosy ground floor living room is the perfect space to curl up in front of the woodburning stove with a glass of wine or recline into the deep sofa and watch a film after a long day of walking in the plunging hillscapes of Yorkshire. Across from the living room, the kitchen is packed with high-end appliances, making this a great spot for keen amateur chefs looking to whip up a feast using excellent local produce procured out the weekly artisan market. With a Nespresso machine and free pods, a fridge-freezer, washing machine and modern hob and oven, everything has been thought of to ensure that your time away is as luxurious and low-stress is possible. In the warmer months, cook out on the top of the range barbecue and enjoy an al fresco on the outdoor dining set, gazing out over the rugged beauty of the Northeast, with views even extending to the picturesque Richmond Castle.
Upstairs, both bedrooms benefit from super-comfortable king-sized beds, modern, classic furnishings, and substantial views. The bathroom is also on the first floor, where you can expect to find sleek, modern lines, a serious bath tub, and the finest Molton Brown toiletries. Naturally all bedlinen and towels are provided for your stay.
Walkers, writers and naturalists have flocked to the Dales for years, drawn by the pastoral beauty and unspoiled towns which this area of the world is known and loved for. With the River Swale just half an hour’s walk away, you’re perfectly positioned to take advantage of some of the loveliest features of Richmond. While Evergreen is on the doorstep of the national park itself, those who enjoy shopping, dining, and scenic towns with cobbled streets won’t be disappointed; the town of Richmond truly has everything you could hope for, from a converted railway station where you can see films to a Saturday market jam packed with high-quality local meats, cheeses, and art. Watch the cricket club play before heading off on a guided ghost walk or to check out Culloden Tower, or alternatively investigate Richmond Castle before having a slap-up meal at one of Richmond’s many excellent eateries. There’s even a waterfall a short stroll from the cottage.
