Westholme sits in the tiny village of Thwaite, right in the heart of Swaledale. It’s not a big, flashy holiday cottage. And that’s exactly what we love about it.

It’s a place with character. A place where you can hear the village around you, watch the seasons change and step outside and feel completely surrounded by the landscape.

And now that September is here, we’re starting to notice those little changes that make this time of year so beautiful.

The light is changing.
The hills are beginning to take on warmer tones.
The evenings are drawing in.
And Westholme is settling into Autumn.

We think one of the favourite things about owning a cottage here is that we get to see it change throughout the year.

Spring brings its fresh greens 🌱
Summer brings long, light-filled days ☀️
Autumn brings colour, atmosphere and those dramatic Dales skies 🍂
And Winter…well, there’s something pretty magical about Swaledale wrapped up in a frosty morning. ❄️

But whatever the season, Westholme is always here - a little Yorkshire Dales, a home-from-home waiting for its next guests. 🏡

If you could choose one season for a stay at Westholme, which would you pick?

At 481 metres high, the flat-topped hill of Addleborough looks over Semerwater and Wensleydale. One of the Dales' smaller and lesser know hills, Addleborough is a magical and impressive place.

The summit features an early Bronze Age burial site and is littered with Bronze Age and Iron Age archaeology including several cup-and-ring stone markings.

You can see why the Romans used Addleborough as a look out post with such a superb elevated position offering stunning open views for miles around.

Addleborough, Wensleydale - Yorkshire Dales.

Due to a very busy and scorching summer you may have noticed that we haven't been out walking and exploring so much in recent weeks.

This week we got the boots on again and headed up to the Roman Road that links the village of Bainbridge in Wensleydale and Gearstones, near Ribblehead. We did just a short stretch along the old track that passes Wether Fell, an elevated walk with wonderful panoramic views of Raydale, Semerwater, Addlebrough and Penhill.

It was cool, windy and the dark skies eventually released the thorough downpour that had been threatening since we got out of the car. We were soddened but thoroughly enjoyed getting out again and it was very much what we needed. It blew away the cobwebs and has inspired and motivated us to get back on those hills. We have really missed our hikes and it has shown as we are noticeably out of shape (speak for yourself, Jon!) 🤣

Who watched the Tour of Britain cycle race on tv today?

Well, Stage 3 just so happened to pedal through the Yorkshire Dales this afternoon. It passed through Grassington and headed up Wharfedale through Kilnsey, Kettlewell and Buckden before the steep climb up Kidstones Pass and then down in to Bishopdale to Aysgarth, up Grinton Moor before finishing in Leyburn.

Crowds gathered all along the route to cheer on the super-fit and charasmatic cyclists.

Has this inspired you to pump up those tyres on your bikes and get the lycra out of your wardrobes? 😀
