About this property

A beautiful ground floor studio property, attached to the owners' 17th century house, on the edge of Austwick, one of the most popular villages in the Dales. Thoughtfully restored and individually styled, this Austwick cottage has been elegantly furnished to provide quality accommodation in a wonderful location. This cottage in Austwick offers superb facilities on one floor with level access. The open-plan living area has a king-size bed, small modern kitchen and sitting and dining areas. Add to this a separate shower room and guests have a perfect romantic retreat, somewhere to get away from it all and enjoy a Dales visit at its finest. This cottage in Austwick is only a minute's walk from the village green and excellent local pub, and just twenty yards from the front door is The Traddock, an award-winning hotel and restaurant. Ideally situated in this beautiful part of the National Park, this Austwick cottage is in an excellent location for exploring on foot or by bike. The market towns of Settle and Kirkby Lonsdale are nearby and the impressive Three Peaks and Malham Cove are not far away. Take a trip on the famous Settle to Carlisle Railway and enjoy the breathtaking scenery. A fabulous Austwick cottage holiday location.

Arguably one of the finest areas for walking in the region, the village of Austwick provides an excellent base for ramblers looking to explore the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Full of limestone pavements and scars, caves and open moors, this diverse and varied scenery offers a wealth of wonderful cycle tracks and walks through areas full of natural interest. In addition to boasting an excellent local pub serveing home cooked meals as well as a country hotel for an extra special night out, Austwick also has a shop and post office to meet visitors daily needs. As one of the less well-known villages in the area, this wonderful little settlement offers a quiet location off the beaten track and away from the crowds. With the towns of Settle, Kirkby Lonsdale, Skipton and Kendal all close by, Austwick provides peace and quiet without leaving you feeling marooned.

    We will certainly consider using this place again if we return to Austwick.

    The owners were very friendly, first time we have ever seen an owner. We have stayed in 3 Sykes properties this year and this by far the best. Lovely village with a shop, pub and hotel. Lots of places to visit nearby, we were very lucky with the weather for the time of year.

    Alec met us on arrival and showed us The Friendly Room. We found it very very comfortable, with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable and we enjoyed the welcome biscuits with a cuppa after our drive there. The Friendly Room is set in the mist beautiful garden, and it was a delight sitting in the conservatory looking over the garden and enjoying the many birds feeding. We also watched a friendly squirrel and rabbit. Very entertaining. Alec and Pip were readily available to answer any queries we had, but we’re not at all intrusive. We thoroughly recommend the Friendly Room to future guests.
