This mid-terrace cottage offers comfortable, well equipped accommodation with stunning views across to Pen-y-Ghent. The Settle to Carlisle Railway line passes through the village along with the Three Peaks and Pennine walks.
The views from the front of the cottage are wonderful. Sit in the front courtyard garden with your morning cup of Yorkshire tea and gaze out across the meadows to Pen-y-Ghent, a perfect start to the day. To the rear is an enclosed garden set with table and cushioned chairs to sit and enjoy a glass of wine or late supper as the sun goes down.

Upstairs is a large double bedroom, comfortably furnished with stunning views over to Pen-y-Ghent, as well as a second bedroom with twin beds and a bathroom.
The location is ever popular with lovers of beautiful countryside, walking enthusiasts and challengers of the Three Peaks. The village of Horton-in-Ribblesdale lies below the huge sphinx-like form of Pen-y-Ghent, one of the iconic Yorkshire Three Peaks and is the preferred starting point for the Three Peaks Walk. The celebrated Pen-y-Ghent café and shop in the centre of Horton is known as the official start and timing point for the Three Peaks Walk because of the old ticket punching machine inside.
The village is a short drive from both Settle and the market town of Skipton with its magnificent castle. There are a number of quaint villages and spectacular attractions to explore nearby. The market town of Ingleton nestles in the foothills of Ingleborough, another of Yorkshire’s famous Three Peaks and is surrounded by magnificent limestone countryside with deep caves and spectacular waterfalls.
After a day of exploring, return to one of the village’s two traditional pubs, one of which lies right on the Pennine Way and welcomes weary walkers with log fires and local ales, and another that has a stone flagged bar area, especially for those with muddy boots and maybe the odd dog in tow. Shop 5 miles, pub and restaurant 200 yards.

The View is a lovely cottage with walks right from the door. It’s really cosy with an open fire and efficient heating. The kitchen has everything you need. The weather wasn’t good enough for us to take advantage but the outdoor space was super, seating at the front to enjoy the view and an enclosed garden at the back. When I messaged the owner I got a helpful reply straight away.
