About this property

Cross over to the kitchen and conjure up a hearty dish, assisted by a range of appliances, before gathering at the dining table with your nearest and dearest. Alternatively, enjoy the evening outside and relax in the private decked area, a delightful space for outdoor dining and alfresco dining through the warmer months. As you call it a day, retire to either of the wonderfully presented bedrooms, including a double with en-suite shower room or a delightful twin bedroom, serviced by a gleaming shower room. Venture into the delightful village of Long Preston, where you can stock up the cupboards with a shop at the Post Office or go for a pint at the local pub. Five miles away lies the market town of Settle, home to a wealth of places to eat and shop, or if you’re looking to take in some jaw-dropping views, venture to Malham to admire the limestone pavements and explore the picturesque Malham Cove. Travel further afield and discover the delights of Skipton, with its ancient castle, bustling market, and charming boutiques – often regarded as the ‘Gateway to the Dales’. You can’t miss out on the breathtaking views of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, with rolling hills, lush valleys, unspoilt moorland, quaint villages, and plenty of wildlife to explore. A stay in 31 Willows certainly promises a truly magical holiday experience, with the perfect combination of natural beauty, contemporary amenities and a charming abode to call your own.

Long Preston is an attractive Yorkshire Dales village in Ribblesdale, twelve miles from Skipton (popularly known as the 'Gateway to the Dales'), four miles from Settle. To the north, the landscape rises to the fells, moors and picturesque valleys of the Dales; to the south are the wetlands of the Ribble Valley which, in turn, sweep upward to the magnificent wilderness of Bowland. The village benefits from several large, tree lined, village greens, with footpaths leading direct to the surrounding hills, and it also boasts two excellent pubs with first rate cuisine. The railway station on the edge of the village provides access to the famous Settle-Carlisle Railway line which crosses some of the most beautiful and inspiring upland scenery in the country. Nearby Settle is a bustling market town with a weekly market, the centre being dominated by the Shambles, an historic 3-storey building with shops on two levels and houses above, and the Town Hall. There is a good selection of restaurants and pubs and a public swimming pool.
