On the edge of Burnmoor is the tiny hamlet of Tatham. High above the traditional Yorkshire market town of Bentham and overlooking The Great Stone, this wonderful hamlet is well-situated to see all of Lancashire and Yorkshire. The Great Stone of Fourstones itself is a relic from the Ice Age, standing on the boundary between counties and has become a notable feature of the landscape. From here it's possible to see the Lake District, the Yorkshire Dales National Park and The Forest of Bowland, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Visitors can use this wonderful little hamlet as a base for walking holidays across the famous three peaks of Ingleborough, Whernside and Pen-y-ghent whilst the less active may enjoy the range of amenities at nearby Bentham. These include a good variety of shops and a range of pubs and restaurants.

The house was spotless, well laid out, well equipped and perfect for our group. We all slept well with the beds being very comfortable. The views are incredible, the garden is lovely and there is plenty of parking. Fantastic property.

We found it a peaceful and tranquil haven which the four of us and our two dogs needed. Large fully enclosed garden more than suitable for our two dogs which kept them safe and free to roam. Owners Fiona and Ros were very friendly, welcoming and easily reachable for anything you need. Lots equipment and facilities, you won't need for anything! It is no wonder why they have repeat guests coming back. Don't miss out and book today!

and didn't want to leave. Beautiful location surrounded by the cows, sheep and wallabies. The house was perfect, very spacious, very clean and provided everything we needed. I will definitely go back again and would highly recommend it. We were a party of seven of varying ages. The only minor things which would've helped us for the older members would have been carpet on the stairs and maybe a hand rail in the downstairs shower room but that didn't stop everyone enjoying themselves.
