Settle is a lovely place with all the facilities and services you need for a holiday. I travelled solo and all my journeys were by train, I left the car at home. The cottage was very comfortable and welcoming with milk, biscuits, wine and beautiful flowers there on arrival, big thank you. Great walks and scenery from the door. Plus the locals were very friendly. I would definitely recommend this lovely cottage.
