Settle 6 miles; Ingleton 10 miles.
This beautiful Ribblesdale village sits within the National Park and provides home to lots of pretty traditional Dales buildings, a lovely Norman church and two pubs. The surrounding countryside is magnificent, offering the ideal location for fell walking, with the famous Three Peaks Walk, Pen-Y-Ghent, Whernside and Ingleborough offering some of the most challenging walks in the country. The famous Settle-Carlisle Railway passes through the village and passes some of the most beautiful and inspiring upland scenery in the country. The Ribblehead viaduct, completed in 1870 is a magnificent structure and the sight of a steam train passing across the top is one not to be missed. The nearby market town of Settle offers a wide variety of pubs and restaurants whilst the market square is a real delight featuring the Shambles, an historic 3-storey building with shops on two levels and houses above, and the Town Hall. The Victoria Hall is a cinema at weekends (Fri & Sat) and offers other activities such as folk nights throughout the year. Natural attractions such as Malham Cove and Gordale Scar are within easy reach, as are the nearby Dales towns of Skipton and Malham and the delightful villages of Ingleton and Hawes.

Oak Cottage is a detached Dales cottage situated in the centre of the hamlet with views towards Pen-y-Ghent to the north, and Ingleborough to the south. It has been fully renovated but retains much character including exposed beams and traditional farmhouse furniture – there are even roses over the door!

Previous visitors' comments about Oak Cottage:
A lovely cottage - homely and comfortable. A nice fire blazing in the grate when we arrived was a master touch! We felt immediately at home. The owners lived on the farm next door and they were friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!

Homeliness and location of this cottage was excellent. A fire was burning in the grate when we arrived on a cold day. Unlimited coal was available throughout our stay at no extra cost. It was exactly what we we wanted.
Mr Taylor, Rushden, February 2013
Good location for all amenities. Rural setting, escaped from it all.
Mr Holderness, Dewsbury, February 2013
Lovely setting, nice property, dog friendly and good walking territory. Open fire was nice and the garden was safe for pets and children. Overall a good experience!
