“Disappointed to hear that there was no washing machine 48hrs prior to arrival.”

Also stated that there was a dvd player and a radio /cd neither were in the cottage. Nearest laundrette is in settle and the public can only use during certain hours. Pleasant scenery, good places to eat nearby. Recommend Matteos in the market place and Shambles for fish and chips

“Superb cosy cottage, home from home.”

Everything you need. Most relaxing village and cottage we have ever stayed at. Could only hear the toned down church bells and the sound of chirping birds. Pub next door has been closed down for a while so don’t know how it would affect the noise. Pub up the road called Harts Head has a lovely relaxing beer garden, it’s a sun trap, overlooking Giggleswick School and it’s chapel Dome. Been on all the fells and hills lovely views. Walked over to Malham and back. Caught train from Settle to Appleby lovely scenic journey about 50 minutes, across the viaduct as well. About 10 minutes walk to a busier Settle. Nice to come back to the cosy relaxing cottage after a full day out. Going home refreshed, relaxed and felt so close to nature there. Thank you Ann so much for your hospitality. Julie & Steve

“Rather too many nic-nacs in a tiny cottage made putting down anything.”

..maps, books etc....rather difficult. But the kitchen area was superbly stocked. Generally, a very comfortable stay.

- Mr Cook, May 2019

“Please say 'thank you' to the owner.”

Lovely Christmas decorations! Homely and everything you could wish for in the kitchen.

- Mr Ellis, December 2018
“The cottage is cosy, comfortable, and well presented.”

The location is very convenient: although in a quiet village the cottage is within easy pedestrian access (via a footbridge) to the market town of Settle.

- Mr Blackburn, October 2018
“Lovely cottage: great location close to Settle.”

Great facilities. Only issue was that water pressure in the shower was far too low and temperature gage difficult to control.

- Mr Fern, October 2018
“Excellent cottage.”

Very well equipped and perfect location.

- Mr Smeeton, September 2018
“Beautiful cottage in a great spot.”

Comfortable and has everything you need for your stay. Handy for traveling into the Lake District and the rest of Yorkshire. Will definitely go back.

“The only issue was that the curtains were very thin and light coloured and so did not really stop the light getting into the bedrooms and so we were woken quite early by the light.”

- Dr Baker, June 2018
“Black horse cottage is really “The Three Bears Cottage” from those old storey books.”

Anne & Tony have certainly made it a cosey spot with everything and more for extended stays. After a day out exploring the beautiful countryside back for a hot shower then from front door six steps to the pub

- Mr Collins, April 2018

About the location

GIGGLESWICK

Settle 1 mile; Malham 6 miles; Skipton 16 miles.

This delightful Ribblesdale village lies below a limestone scar (part of the Craven fault) and just across the river from the bustling market town of Settle. It’s an incredibly pretty place with sturdy houses and cottages, many dating back to the 17th century as the ‘date stones’ over their doorways will confirm. Today the village is still centred around the beautiful St Alkelda’s church, which dates back to the 12th century and the well-known landmark of the domed chapel at the famous Giggleswick School, which dominates the village skyline. Giggleswick itself has two pubs, whilst the wide ranging amenities of the nearby market town of Settle are within easy walking distance. Further afield is the town of Ingleton with its splendid waterfall walk and of course (for the serious walker) the Three Peaks are nearby.
