  • Charming railway cottage with gorgeous original features in a secluded countryside location
  • Spacious property with well-styled rooms and a wood burner for enjoying cosy evenings in
  • Courtyard and enclosed rear garden with glorious views of the Settle-Carlisle railway and Dales
Property code: OC-DS1067

Rest and reset in this characterful cottage in the Yorkshire Dales. The property sleeps three guests and one woofer and makes a lovely romantic retreat or base for a small family. Outdoor enthusiasts can set off along the Pennine Way to explore the surrounding countryside on foot and paw, or you can head to one of the nearby towns or villages to dine in a country pub or pick up local produce for your supper. In the evenings, snuggle by the wood burner in your cosy cottage.

The traditional railway cottage sits at the end of a quiet lane, surrounded by open countryside. Inside, discover a bright, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, decorated in neutral tones. Relax on the comfortable sofas to watch the TV/DVD, whilst Rover snoozes by the wood burner. Rustle up tasty meals in the stylish kitchen area, to enjoy together around the cute table for three. Upstairs, you’ll find two tastefully decorated bedrooms, both of which enjoy rural views. Also on this floor is a large shower room. Outside, the rear garden is laid to lawn, with plenty of space for the hound to play whilst you admire the views of the Settle-Carlisle railway. There is also an enclosed area to the front, with a bistro set for relaxing with a tipple in the sunshine.

The area is a paradise for walkers and four-pawed explorers. The long-distance Pennine Way passes close to the cottage, and the Three Peaks of Pen-y-Ghent, Ingleborough, and Whernside are all within 20 miles of the property. You’ll also be within easy reach of some of the Dales’ most recognisable landmarks, including the gargantuan amphitheatre-shaped limestone cliff at Malham Cove (12.5 miles). The bustling market town of Settle is 8.5 miles away and has a great range of woof-friendly eateries and cosy pubs.

We enjoyed our stay in this lovely, well equipped cottage. We found plenty to do despite the weather. The dog enjoyed the ducks! Took the drive to Hawes well worth it and Skipton and the Lakes all worth the effort.

Great holiday - we did more than some of us expected too! Refreshed old memories of a time more than 50years ago when we spent most weekends here above and below the ground and made new ones (Wild swim was wonderfully refreshing on a v.quiet day in Stainforth) The people we've met have made it v special.

We had a lovely holiday, were very pleased with the property which is beautiful and it's location. We do have a couple of suggestions - longer non-slip mat in the shower would be useful, particularly for those not so steady on their feet, as you have to step off the shower mat onto the shower base to exit the shower. The directions given are to leRead moreave the M6 at junction 34 and follow the signs to Ingleton, however there is no signage for Ingleton initially - perhaps "follow the signs to Kirkby Lonsdale", then to Ingleton as you are some miles from the M6 before there is a sign for Ingleton Hide

We have enjoyed a glorious week- so lucky with the dry weather and sun most days. We booked the week to conincide with the Appleby Horse Fair and choose to travel on the train - well worth it on both counts. The cottage is well cared for and so well equipped. Also perfectly placed for so much in the area, thank you.

The biggest issue we had was the property was described as having an enclosed garden and this was not correct . As we have a dog we always tick the box for enclosed garden The issue could be resolved by adding a gate Apart from this the property was excellent

Nice week, lovely cottage-well equipped to high standard. Good location for walks. Weather was variable but mostly wet. Stunning scenery when sun came out! Great walks at Malham, Whernside, Clapham to Ingleborough, Ingleton Waterfalls. Settle to Carlisle train worth it, but didn`t stay in Carlisle long! Great stay. Thanks.

We have had a lovely stay at "No 2". The Cottage is a lovely location and a very relaxed place. We highly recommend the Himalayan Gardens. A must is to go to the viaduct and watch the steam train go over "Magical". We also took the train up to Carlisle. It hakes about a hour and a half. The views are stunning. Best fish and chips , Hawes.
