Loved our 7 day stay here and would definitely like to return.Thoughtful, and much appreciated, welcome pack on arrival.Very clean and welcoming cottage. Perfect location and only 10 minute walk into Settle. Approximately 50yards away from a large children’s park and dog walking area. Thank you.

Brilliant location for the many scenic walks in the area and only 10 minutes walk to the shops and cafes in Settle. The property was warm, comfortable and fairly well maintained (few minor issue eg one of the bathroom showers didn't work) but these didn't spoil the holiday. Parking needed practice as it required manoeuvring in or out onto a road with limited vision of other traffic! We'd happily stay there again and have recommended it to friends wanting to visit the area next year.
