A main bedroom with lovely views across open countryside, a spacious twin bedroom and a small but useful cloakroom with basin and WC are all handily placed on the same floor. Outside is a lawned area with a table and chairs - a great place to sit and take in the views and relaxing atmosphere. The thriving local village of Clapham is a fifteen-minute walk away, whilst the likes of Skipton, Settle, Ribblehead, Dent, Garsdale and Appleby can be readily accessed through the rail line.

Exiting the property (in car) needs care as corner is blind - but no actual problems experienced. Cottage historically most interesting, well equipped and owners very welcoming. Ideally situated for either the Dales or Forest of Bowland. Railway adds further interest. Log fire much appreciated by later evening.

The welcome pack was great touch with some lovely local things to eat bread , butter, cheese, biscuits and even bottle of wine. Owner was brilliant too weather was patchy despite being August bank holiday week so checked multiple times we were warm enough even putting heating on to help warm us up. The cottage contained so many nice touches and everything we needed and more. Can honestly recommend to anyone.
