I love the nods to the history of the place. It's well situated for the Yorkshire 3 peaks, and of them, Ingleborough is right on the doorstep so you wouldn't need to drive there. I'd recommend, and will be booking again.

The apartment is well equipped, warm and very comfortable. Located on the edge of the village it is only a few minutes walk to the main amenities and an excellent base for walking in the local area. We will be returning.
