Flax Mill Cottage – Yorkshire Dales

Flax Mill Cottage provides a perfect holiday location for up to four people and one small canine friend

Flax Mill Cottage is tucked away in the Nidd Valley, two miles outside of the small town of Pateley Bridge, lies the magnificent Grade II listed Glasshouses Mill, a former flax and rope mill, built in the 1800s and now transformed into luxury accommodation.

Original beams and artifacts retained within the development offer glimpses into the mill's past and contrast beautifully with the modern fixtures and fittings. Flax Mill Cottage is situated on the east side of the mill, having been completed in 2022. In keeping with the spirit of the mill, it has been furnished with a mix of modern and traditional furniture, to create a cosy and welcoming cottage for you to enjoy.

Glasshouses Dam

A few steps from the cottage leads to the water's edge of the River Nidd and Glasshouses Dam, which once fed the mill. Now a haven for wildlife, this tranquil stretch of water hosts the occasional otter or Kingfisher, other wild birds and many resident ducks! Deer, barn owls and birds of prey also frequent the local area.
Part of the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and also the International Dark Sky Reserve, the area is full of interest and has something to offer nature lovers, walkers, dog owners, history enthusiasts and anyone seeking a relaxing escape in a spectacular rural landscape.
