About this property

A wonderful, semi-detached wing of the owner’s Grade II listed country house, set in its own grounds on the outskirts of the pretty village of Clapham. Located just a hundred yards from the railway station, this charming holiday home provides great access to the famous Settle-Carlisle Railway line. Fully renovated, this holiday hideaway provides perfect accommodation for couples and small families looking to enjoy a truly wonderful rural retreat. Set over two floors with a slightly unusual layout, the property has been meticulously prepared and individually styled, and has the added benefit of a spacious garden boasting lovely views across the surrounding countryside. The spacious, open plan living area has stylish, modern furnishings, a lovely warming woodburning stove, original beams and a delightful window seat. The open plan design is a real delight with a modern, well-equipped kitchen and a cosy dining area. A bathroom and utility area complete the ground floor accommodation. The main staircase leading to the two bedrooms features a panelled wall, which adds to the overall character and charm of this cottage. A main bedroom with lovely views across open countryside, a spacious twin bedroom and a small but useful cloakroom with basin and WC are all handily placed on the same floor. Outside is a lawned area with a table and chairs - a great place to sit and take in the views and relaxing atmosphere. The thriving local village of Clapham is a fifteen-minute walk away, whilst the likes of Skipton, Settle, Ribblehead, Dent, Garsdale and Appleby can be readily accessed through the rail line. With excellent walking and cycling opportunities in the nearby area, along with many fine country pubs and award-winning restaurants, this is a perfect location for a romantic break. The nearest amenities are just a mile away, with a shop selling organic vegetables, local produce, and a coffee shop and a pub, whilst Ingleton is just a little further, known for its incredible scenery with impressive woodland waterfalls and stunning show caves. The whole of the Yorkshire Dales and the splendour of The Lake District, West Coast, The Forest of Bowland and the Three Peaks are all within an hour’s scenic drive. A lovely holiday cottage whatever the time of year.

    The owners live next door and we're very helpful. They had a roaring fire ready gir our arrival plus a very generous welcome hamper including milk bread biscuits and wine!

    Wonderful hamper left for us on arrival, with fresh bread, Yorkshire butter, milk, biscuits, cheese and wine. What a lovely surprise. Peacefully situated with plenty of private off road parking. Views are stunning. Owners live next door and are friendly and helpful. All the comforts of home can be found in the cottage. You don't need to bring anything but food and drink, as the kitchen has everything you need including condiments, foil, washing up liquid, tea towels etc etc. Lovely comfortable bedrooms. Wonderful surroundings with lots of great places to visit. Only half hour from The lake district too. Fabulous bakery in Ingleton village called Seasons. The cottage is close to the railway station, but we weren't bothered by any noise as trains only run every two hours. A car is necessary to visit shops etc, but they are only a short drive away. Highly recommended place to stay.

    The surroundings are beautiful and although the cottage is very handy for the A65 and the railway to Morecambe and Skipton, you are not bothered by either. The accommodation is very good, although the second bedroom is a little small - not that this would stop us coming back. The cottage is clean, and the locally sourced bread, butter and cheese (and wine) a very nice welcoming touch. TV signal and WiFi are both pretty good, and the unlisted DVD player a bonus (First World entertainment problems sorted). There are nice walks to be had in the area, or within about an hour’s drive, most of the highlights of the Yorkshire Dales area are easily reached. The owners George and Elizabeth are friendly and happy to let you know some tips for trips or walks from the cottage. Their two lovely dogs, cat and 4 chickens also provided brilliant distractions for us.
