Charming Detached Completely Private Stone Built Open Plan Cosy Retreat For 2

This converted detached holiday cottage stands in a quiet rural location on the edge of the National Park. It is an idyllic setting, enjoying peace and quiet with only the sound of the nearby stream. It really makes a wonderful home from which to walk direct from the front door in the surrounding countryside. The Dales and the Lakes are both readily accessible, the market town of High Bentham is only 1.5 miles whilst Kirkby Lonsdale with its lovely selection of individual shops (ranging from antiques to designer clothes and jewellery) is 8 miles. Ingleton and its caves are 5 miles. Alternatively dine alfresco and take in the view and the tranquillity. Also within easy reach of the Three Peaks. Shop and pub 1.5 miles.

Please see ebay for last minute deals or special rates. We provide bed linenand towels and two easy start logs. Clients are asked to bring their own logs etc if they wish to use the log burner.

Our first stay in Yorkshire in a lovely little cottage in a beautiful place. We found our accomodation cosy, clean and well set out. We were only staying for a weekend but this place was perfect and had everything we needed for our short stay.

Cute cosy cottage to relax and unwind
The property is well maintained and the quality is of a high standard. Felt like I was in the middle of nowhere but only 10 minutes from civilisation. Sadly it rained and snowed the whole weekend so I didn’t get to enjoy the garden but lovely to see the sheep grazing across from the house. Local walks on your doorstep. The log burner was great, adding to the coziness of the cottage. especially in these colder days. It had everything I needed. Yes the bathroom is small, and the owners have mentioned why but it’s only a small thing when most of your time is spent outside of the bathroom. Owners were great, communicated well and on hand if I needed anything. Would recommend to others.

Lovely little private and secluded cottage with pretty well maintained gardens, perfect for a few days away. Super clean and well equipped with everything needed for our stay. Great communication from owners, checkin and key access was a breeze. Bathroom was functional but is compact.

The cottage was small but also seemed spacious. Lots of light and the garden surrounding the cottage was nice, with wildlife coming and going. A bit in the middle of nowhere but good to just relax.

Beautiful cosy retreat
Would I return? YES Would I recommend to family and friends? YES I loved my short stay at the cottage with my pups. Perks were: * the remote location - the babbling brook at the end of the garden was the most peaceful sound. Just wish I was able to enjoy the garden more, but visiting in winter meant my time at the property was spent indoors. Which leads me to: * log burning fireplace - with the addition of the starter logs to get you going. It made the cottage so cosy and warm. * basket of doggy things - blankets, towels and treats, which were a welcome addition. * secure garden - although the owner does state it is not 100% secure, my small pugs did fine and were safe the whole time. Things to consider: * the bathroom is very small. Advert indicates a shower room but not so much the size. Anyone over 5'10" might struggle to sit on the toilet without bashing knees on the opposite wall! For a short stay, it was perfectly acceptable. * no welcome package - despite there being a picture on the listing of a bottle of Cava and some treats to welcome you on your stay, there was nothing in the cottage on arrival. * no kitchen pantry essentials - the kitchen was kitted out with all the equipment needed for cooking and eating, however there was not a single pantry item, like tea, coffee, sugar, oil, salt, pepper etc. I wouldn't have minded there not being these things if it was made apparent in the listing, but future renters be mindful to bring these things with you.

Always a pleasure to return to this home from home cottage, where time stands still in the peace and quiet. So much to see and do on the doorstep, or just sit and watch the local wildlife visit the garden.

cosy cottage
Property is lovely and quiet, spotless, great secure plenty of little spots to sit in the garden. The only fault is the shower room/toilet far to small not good for the less mobile people. Having said that it was still a great couple of nights.
