1 / 17Duck Cottage - Grewelthorpe
Grewelthorpe, North Yorkshire
A one bedroom cottage for two at Grewelthorpe with a wood burner under beams, an enclosed front garden and a private patio behind, two dogs welcome near Masham.
Two dogs come through the door ahead of everybody and go straight to the hearth, and with only two people behind them that is the ratio this cottage runs at. Duck Cottage sleeps two in one bedroom at Grewelthorpe and allows two dogs. An enclosed garden sits in front of it and a private patio behind, which for a dog friendly cottage on a village street is generous.
Downstairs is one room under beams: sofas round a wood burner with floor enough for two dogs in front of it, a table for two, kitchen at the far end. Up the stairs the king bedroom keeps a bathroom of its own with a deep bath and a shower standing apart from it. A freezer lives in the outhouse for anybody arriving with a week of food, and the bikes lock away out there as well.
The pairing is the point. Two people, two dogs, one bedroom and nothing left to negotiate. Grewelthorpe is a small village with a green and a pond and not much else happening, which is either not enough or exactly enough depending on what brought you. Anybody who has hunted for a one bedroom cottage that will still take a second dog knows how short that list runs.
Hackfall is the reason to be here: 100 acres of wooded gorge above the River Ure, laid out as a Georgian pleasure ground and then left alone for a century, follies and cascades appearing out of the trees and a path falling to the water. It begins within a mile of the door. Masham lies north over the river with its market square and breweries, and a dog walks to most of what is worth seeing.

Is Duck Cottage - Grewelthorpe dog friendly?
Yes, Duck Cottage welcomes two dogs, and they're very much part of the picture here — the setup is built around the pairing of two people and two dogs. There's a wood burner to settle in front of, an enclosed front garden, and a private patio at the back, which is a genuinely generous arrangement for a cottage on a village street.
Are dogs allowed at Duck Cottage - Grewelthorpe year round?
The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, so there's nothing to suggest they aren't welcome throughout the year. If you want to confirm availability for a particular time, it's worth checking directly with the property.
What should I know before visiting Duck Cottage - Grewelthorpe with my dog?
The cottage takes a maximum of two dogs, so it's worth knowing that limit before you book if you have a larger pack. On the plus side, the enclosed garden and private patio give dogs outdoor space without needing to worry about the village street, and Hackfall — 100 acres of wooded gorge along the River Ure — starts less than a mile from the door, making it an excellent base for dog walking.
