The property offers a warm welcome with thoughtful touches, such as a comprehensive folder of walks and a well-appointed kitchen. While there was an isolated incident of cleanliness on arrival, the issue was resolved, and overall experiences have been positive.
Guests that stayed at this property said
Most guests reported the cottage to be comfortable and cosy. However, one guest encountered an issue with cleanliness on arrival due to the property not being cleaned, which seems to be an isolated incident. The rest of the reviews do not mention any cleanliness problems.
The location is highly praised for its proximity to walking routes and the Yorkshire Dales, with many guests appreciating the direct access to outdoor activities. The presence of a nearby pub and the availability of a parking permit are also noted positively.
Guests have found the beds extremely comfortable and the cottage warm, especially after long days of hiking. There was a minor comment about the sofa not being very comfortable, but this does not seem to detract significantly from the overall comfort of the cottage.
The cottage is described as well-equipped with a kitchen that has all the necessary utensils and equipment. Guests appreciated the extra touches like the folder with walks. There was a mention of potentially needing new batteries for the fire alarm, indicating a minor maintenance issue.
The reviews reflect the owners' thoughtfulness in providing a comprehensive folder of walks, maps, and suggestions for activities. There is no mention of gifts, so it cannot be confirmed if this is a regular practice, and therefore, the score is set to null.
About this property
Resting with the nature-filled surrounding of the Yorkshire Dales National Park in the rural village of Horton-In-Ribblesdale is 3 South View, a delightful two-bedroom cottage. Well-positioned to explore the delights of North Yorkshire and paces away from a host of local amenities, the cottage offers four guests a homely dwelling, featuring a well-equipped kitchen, a private garden with access to a free-flowing stream, and inviting sitting room. Starting off your getaway in the kitchen/diner, housing all expected appliances to ease your self-catered stay; benefit from a washer/dryer and a dishwasher, handy for family breaks. Continue through to the sitting room, complete with plush seating, a multi-fuel stove, and a Smart TV with both Sky and Netflix, offering the ideal setting for a film night in. When sleep calls, head upstairs to two well-present bedrooms, including a king-size and a twin, before awakening to a refresh in the bathroom. Enjoy a stroll across the garden, to a patio adjoining the stream, before grabbing your walking boots and committing to the Three Peaks Walk, covering Pen-Y-Ghent, Ingleborough and Whernside. For cyclists, there is secure storage in a locked stone outbuilding complete with concrete enclosed metal tubing to which bikes can be padlocked. Continue through the national park, stopping off to climb Gaping Gill, tour the underground setting of Ingleborough Cave, or follow the Ingleborough Estate Nature Trail, perfect for bird spotting.

This charming Ribblesdale community is located inside a National Park and is home to two pubs, a fine Norman church, and many charming traditional Dales buildings. The breath-taking scenery provides the perfect setting for fell trekking, and the famous Three Peaks Walk, Pen-Y-Ghent, Whernside, and Ingleborough offer some of the toughest hikes in the nation. The community is traversed by the renowned Settle-Carlisle Railway, which also goes through some of the nation's most breath-taking and inspiring highland landscapes. A steam train crossing across the top of the spectacular Ribblehead viaduct, which was finished in 1870, is an experience not to be missed.

The weather was mixed so we did low level walks each day. We particularly enjoyed the warm welcome and good value food at the Helwith Bridge Inn and Elaine's Tea Rooms in Feizor. Our young Daughter was delighted that the cottage was so well equipped. We were able to make a Sunday Roast as well as baking cakes and biscuits and playing new board games. Having a Smart TV, excellent WiFi and Netflix was also a bonus. We look forward to visiting again in warmer weather, climbing the Three Peaks and relaxing by the stream in the garden.

The location was perfect for us. The cottage is as described, cosy and comfortable and we appreciated all the utensils, equipment and other extras in the kitchen - tea bags, milk, biscuits, weighing scales etc. We weren't brave enough to try to work the solid fuel heater in the living room, but the electric radiators were perfectly fine for the weather during our stay. The information folder of local walks and other activities was really helpful and much appreciated. Thank you.
