Secret Valley Cottage

Beautiful cottage to rent in Yorkshire

If you’re searching for a calm, design-led holiday cottage to rent in Yorkshire, Secret Valley Cottage makes switching off feel effortless. Tucked beside a woodland stream in the North York Moors, this on-grid garden cabin offers you nature on the doorstep and modern comforts inside, including heating, Wi-Fi, a fully equipped kitchen, and a west-facing private deck that glows in the evening light.

Your own garden sanctuary

Open the front door and look straight through to the trees. French doors from the bedroom lead onto a sheltered, west-facing deck and enclosed garden, so mornings start with birdsong and a cup of tea outdoors. By night, light the fire pit, listen to the beck and let the valley fall quiet around you. Guests describe the setting as “the perfect place to relax,” with walks steps from the door and wildlife that is close enough to watch from the terrace.
Inside, the space is compact, warm and cleverly arranged. Natural tones, handcrafted timber details and soft lighting create an easy, grounded feel. It’s the Lazy T approach to luxury: everything you need, nothing fussy.

Customer Reviews

Easily the most peaceful and beautiful place we’ve stayed, the cabin was so cosy and well equipped, everything was clean and tidy, the garden is easily the best part, sitting listening to the stream and the birds and seeing all the wildlife, we didn’t want to leave!!

Beautiful location, accommodation was top notch. Very friendly hosts who supplied lots of information before and during our stay via a pack, helping us to make the most of our stay. Very tranquil, surrounded by nature. We’ll definitely be back. Just what you need to recharge and de-stress.

We had a fantastic stay at the Secret Valley Cottage. The cottage was exactly as described and equipped with everything we needed for our stay. We made sure to take advantage of the suggested walks and local amenities, all of which were excellent. We look forward to returning in the summer!

Why choose the Secret Valley Cottage?

Open the doors to beautiful views at the secret valley cottage available to rent in North Yorkshire

Secret Valley Cottage gives you your own west-facing garden beside the stream, easy parking by the door, and a calm, modern interior shaped by handcrafted details. It’s private without feeling remote, soothing without being fussy—perfect for slow mornings, long walks and unhurried evenings by the fire pit. If you need to log on, the Wi-Fi is solid; if you need to switch off, the birdsong does the rest.

Design-led eco living

The open-plan living space combines cooking and conversation. You’ll find an oven and hob, an under-counter fridge-freezer, good knives and the cookware you actually use. The dining nook sits beside glazing, allowing meals to drift outside when the sun appears. In the bedroom, a luxurious king-size bed with a handcrafted headboard promises deep sleep; wake to garden views and step straight onto the deck.  We design and maintain every space ourselves, building with timber from our family farm whenever possible, and using low-waste products behind the scenes. That care shows up in the small things—how the doors open, where the hooks are, how the lights feel at night.
