These two comfortable cottages linked by connecting doors are perfect for families or friends sharing a holiday in this idyllic location, with a splendid range of sporting activities on the doorstep and the nearby beautiful Yorkshire Dales National Park and Forest of Bowland to explore. While both spacious properties are furnished in the same contemporary style, one sleeps four people and the other sleeps six. The cottages are set at the end of a half-mile private road and there are pleasant walks through the surrounding farmland. Walkers and cyclists can enjoy waymarked paths in Gisburn Forest (3 miles), with tougher trails to challenge mountain bikers. Settle (8 miles), with its independent shops, pubs, places to eat and a weekly market, has a fascinating museum and is the gateway to the Yorkshire Dales and a wealth of beautiful walks in superb scenery, including the famous Three Peaks. For an unforgettable journey through this splendid landscape, take a train on the Settle to Carlisle line across the famous Ribblesdale Viaduct.

Interiors in both properties are planned for stylish comfort and convenience. Each ground-floor lounge has a flame effect gas fire and TV with Freeview and a dining kitchen. The smaller cottage has two first-floor bedrooms, one double and one twin, plus a bathroom with shower over the bath and WC. The second cottage has three bedrooms on the first floor, one double and two twin and a bathroom with shower over the bath and WC.

Outside, each cottage has a patio with furniture and a BBQ and a large shared garden. Also shared with neighbouring properties are a luxurious 10 x 5 metre-heated indoor swimming pool, a spacious games room with tennis and football tables, and pool and full-sized snooker tables. Outside is a tennis court and football field.

Good value, rooms were small but functional. Dated but clean and well kept. Games rooms inculding pool, table football, table tennis, snooker and darts was a very good addition.

The pool and games room are a fabulous addition to the property and a real bonus. The property was a little disappointing with a rather unloved feel. Nevertheless, the property is clean and the beds particularly comfy. The location is lovely and quiet although not recommended for walks from the door. The local footpaths are not well maintained Read morenor well sign posted (obviously nothing to do with the property though). Hide
