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 garden is well enclosed if you have dogs . There is plenty of information in the cottage about facilities and the walks in the area . It is ideal for anyone walking the 3 peaks or being on the edge of the Pennine way walking in the beautiful surroundings . The owners are prompt in their support if you need anything . We will definitely be returning .

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.
