The Swans Nest Lock View

The Swans Nest is a stunningly-presented, semi-detached holiday home located in the lovely village of Gargrave in North Yorkshire. Situated right on the outskirts of the beautiful Yorkshire Dales National Park, this property is perfect for families, groups and a furry friend seeking a peaceful retreat away from the hustle and bustle of city life.

In this wonderful abode you’ll find everything you’ll need to make your stay an unforgettable one. Kick up your feet on the soft reclining sofas to warm up by the electric fire and watch an episode of your favourite show on the Smart TV, head to the kitchen to cook up delicious meals and have family dinners around the dining table.

In the morning, wake up early and make yourself a steaming cup of coffee or tea, then head out to the sitting room’s or the top floor room’s balcony to enjoy the beautiful sight of the sun rising over the canal and stunning country landscape. In the evening, why not unwind with a soak in the hot tub as you stargaze and breathe in the crisp country air?

Catch your rest in one of two nicely-decorated bedrooms and get ready for an adventure. Head out to the village centre of Gargravel and enjoy some delicious pub grub at The Old Swan, treat yourself to some mouthwatering Indian food at Bollywood Cottage or have a lighter bite at Dalesman Cafe.

Make your way to the lovely town of Skipton to visit Skipton Castle, a 12th-century fortress with a dungeon, learn more about the town’s past eras at Craven Museum and Gallery, and take a stroll around Skipton Castle Wood to marvel at the verdant woodlands, adorable wildlife and gushing waterfall. Just a stone’s throw away, you’ll find the market town of Settle where you can visit The Museum of North Craven Life to find out more about the local area, Plantlife Winskill Stones Nature Reserve with its beautifully blooming fields and sweeping views, and Queen’s Rock where you’ll be able to stroll along the river and settle for a picnic.
