"Our second lovely holiday in Harbar Scar."
The cottage is very comfortable and well equipped. It’s an ideal location for exploring the Dales and Lake District. Beautiful walks snd rivers on your doorstep too. Can’t wait to come back.
Thank you for your feedback . It was good to welcome you back to Harber Scar and hear some of the places you visited whilst using Horton in Ribblesdale as a base to explore. Hopefully we will see you again soon. Property Owner

"The cottage is lovely and comfortable."
Extra touches on arrival were much appreciated. Our dogs enjoyed the garden. On the path to Pen-y-Ghent so can be busy at times, and pub landlord opposite is very precious about parking spaces on land between pub and cottage. Must adhere therefore to one car only rule, despite existence of large car park behind pub. Otherwise a lovely location and ideal for exploring this lovely area.
Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to hear you found Harber Scar lovely and an ideal base to explore the area. With regard to the car parking outside the cottage eloquently put. Property Owner

"A very nice comfortable cottage in a good location for walking and cycling."
There was a warm welcome and the place was really clean. Only communicated with the owner by telephone but she was very pleasant and helpful. Would definitely stay again.
It may be worth noting that the Crown Inn next to the cottage does not allow dogs in however the Golden Lion a few minutes walk away does.

"Very pleased with the property."
I booked it on the last minute and the price was very competitive. Its in a great location with lovely views from the cottage. The cottage is full of character and spotlessly clean. All the equipment is of a good standard, with a decent kitchen. The lounge has a multi fuel burner which adds to the character. The owner left us some goodies for our arrival, which was very thoughtful and greatly appreciated. I found the owner pleasant, although we had no problems, so contact was minimal. The location is great for touring the area, with Settle only a 10 minute drive. The town has all the necessary shops to get your supplies. There's nothing negative I can say about this property, and would strongly recommend it.

"This is a lovely cottage, really warm and cosy."
Everything was very clean and tidy. The owner was very helpful and friendly and even makes meals for you if you ask her, they are delicious. The cottage is in a great location if you like walking, and if not the railway station is only five minutes away and there are lots of nice places to visit like Settle. We were lucky enough to have good weather in December but it would be good even in bad weather as it is a great place to hole up and read. We would definitely recommend this cottage.
Thank you for your feedback and I am pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay and the evening meal I delivered to the cottage on the Sunday evening for your party. Property Owner

"A very cosy well appointed cottage in a most stunning area."
The welcome gifts provided were an added bonus and most appreciated. Our stay was very comfortable and given the amazing weather we were able to enjoy the great walking opportunities close by and further away - Pen y Ghent was one of the highlights - and then come back to relax in the lovely garden by the river. The garden was ideal for our dog who enjoyed lazing in it too! We would highly recommend this cottage to anyone thinking of visiting the area.

"Gorgeous cottage in the centre of a bustling Dales village."
Lots of lovely walks straight from the doorstep. Parking a little tricky as none allocated to cottage, so with 2 very small children was a little awkward at times. But landlord allowed us to park in car park behind pub when there was none available. Just a slight point to note for people with children and dogs, the garden gate in the back garden has no latch or fixings, so swings freely straight onto the road/bridge although it looks closed!
Otherwise a really lovely, well kitted out cottage.

"My son made his own way there and on arrival we were met by the landlord of the Crown stating we were only allowed one car parking space."
My son had to park a good way away but the space next to ours was not used until late monday. The landlord was very short with another walker only asking if the pub was open. We therefore didn't give him any of our custom. Otherwise we had a great week.

"Fabulous cottage in the heart of the Dales."
The cottage has so much character and was perfect for our family of four with two children. It was a lovely surprise when we arrived and there was a bottle of prosecco, freshly made biscuits and the fire was lit! The cottage was immaculate, beds very comfy and all of the amenities were exactly what we needed for the week. The location of the cottage is fantastic for exploring the area and there were some days we didn't even use the car as there are so many walks to enjoy from the cottage. Lovely little garden with a stream at the bottom too. I would definitely recommend Harber Scar if you are looking for a traditional cottage in the heart of the Dales.

"Lovely cosy cottage with everything you need for a home from home."
Great location for walking & visiting the lovely Dales towns. The Crown Hotel, opposite Harber Scar, doesn't allow dogs in the bar which rules it out of evening meals (leaving dogs in cottage alone not permitted) but the Golden Lion, 5 minutes walk down the road, welcomed them (beware of Saturday evenings though- bar will be packed with walkers & their kit until @8pm!!).
I think the only downside were the huge quarry lorries that thunder past the cottage from @5.45am but they were noisiest in the two front(?) bedrooms.

Cottage was clean and welcoming with a lovely log fire for the wetter and colder evenings. Surrounding scenery was beautiful and plenty to do for anyone that loves the outdoors.
