In the midst of some of North Yorkshire's most magnificent countryside, the bustling market town of Settle is located at the south-western edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, next to the largest outcrop of limestone in the country. In Settle, Tuesday is market day, when the plaza is crowded with stalls selling a wide range of goods and crafts. Local stores line the market square, which is dominated by The Shambles, a historic three-story structure with shops on the first two floors and houses above, and the Town Hall. A public pool and a good selection of eateries and bars are available. Throughout the year, the Victoria Hall hosts entertainment and various events including folk nights.

The views are breathtaking with the village centre and the station a few minutes walk away. The cottage is perfect, our favourite of all the holiday homes weâve stayed at . Very clean, neat and tidy, very comfortable. The owners are lovely, very attentive and approachable. 11/10 !

It is well located and within easy walking distance of all Settle has to offer. The furniture and fittings are good quality, the bed is huge and very comfortable. Good Wi-Fi and a bonus to be able to log into our Netflix account. The kitchen is well thought out, has everything you need including a washer/dryer. As the weather was good we sat on one of the benches on the green to enjoy the scenery, we met a few of the neighbours (& their dogs) who were all very friendly and it just made our stay feel even nicer! Thank you for the card and wine, much appreciated

and close to centre of town. First time in the Dales for ages, and it's been great to stay in Settle, such a lively fascinating friendly place. Its been a short stay, over too quickly; we'll be back for longer next time!
