Luxury Riverside Cottage by Aysgarth Falls: Perfect for Walkers & Nature Lovers

River Dance Cottage is a luxurious two-bedroom retreat situated on the serene banks of the River Ure, right next to the stunning Aysgarth Falls. This charming cottage offers a perfect escape for nature enthusiasts and walkers, with breathtaking scenery and numerous walking trails right at your doorstep. Aysgarth Falls, a spectacular triple flight of waterfalls, is one of the highlights of the Yorkshire Dales. Carved out by the River Ure over a nearly one-mile stretch, the falls are divided into three stages: Upper Force, Middle Force, and Lower Force. The falls are particularly impressive after heavy rainfall, when thousands of gallons of water cascade over the broad limestone steps. The surrounding area is a walker’s paradise, featuring picturesque landscapes and tranquil paths. After a day of exploring, you can unwind at the nearby tearooms, cafes, or the local pub/restaurant, all just a short stroll away. Whether you're seeking adventure or relaxation, River Dance Cottage is the ideal base for discovering the beauty of the Yorkshire Dales.
