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.

We provide bed linen and towels and two easy start logs. Clients are asked to bring their own logs etc if they wish to use more than the two we provide on the log burner. Basic cleaning materials provided along with a toilet roll. Doggy basket includes waste bags, treats, towels, blankets and cleaning sprays. The cottage is simple yet comfortable! A big hit with dog walkers, cyclists, walkers and those who wish to have some quiet and relaxation

Awesome cottage! You really feel isolated and remote there; proper relaxation. But still close enough to be within a ten minute drive of Ingleton, and trailheads up to Ingleborough are also only 10 mins drive away. Will definitely be booking again soon!

lovely cottage weekend break

Quaint, compact, lovely garden and 3 different sitting out areas. Wish the weather had been better to enjoy the outside more. Kitchen had everying you needed.Wet room ok, shower hot. Tiniest sink I've ever seen and not a lot of room when getting changed but we managed. We enjoyed our stay.

Stayed here as a quiet base to walk the 3 Peaks. Very peaceful and not too far away. The only negatives for us would be that there were no teabags/coffee, sugar, salt & pepper. We have stayed in many cottages and this has been the only place where there has been nothing at all.

Bentham hideaway for two!

Lovely clean cottage, if you are over 6’ tall you might struggle as the space around the toilet in the wet room is very limited. Otherwise a great little place for a couple of days. 2 lots of garden furniture and a log burner in the living room area were a bonus and the small but well equipped kitchen came in handy for preparing a curry!

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.
