Ms Duce
October 2020

“Have booked with you for past 5 years have never been disappointed”

- Ms Duce, October 2020
Mr Savage September 2020

“Nice flat - thankfully it's much better inside than the outside appearance from the rear!”

Plenty of space, comfy beds, decent bath/shower rooms, effective heating, great view from the lounge. Note that both bedrooms face the road and the windows are single-glazed, so if you're a light sleeper this might not suit. Good parking, although directions to the spaces could perhaps be a little better. IE: Cragdale is on the main road, the turning next to it is Chapel Street, then right into Cragdale, where the parking is. Traffic and an angry neighbour did cause some aggravation, and if I could've put Cragdale into the satnav from the start, there wouldn't have been a problem. Complaints? Nothing major. The silicone round the shower needs re-doing - a 30 min job. My wife had to clean around the sink and drainer, and the oft-overlooked hoovering down between the settee cushions had been overlooked! Small points, really, and easy to correct, and we'd have no problem visiting again!

Mrs Mccreadie September 2020

“Lovely apartment with everything you could need for the weeks break Well done to the owner who has really put some thought into what will be needed during your stay .”

Well positioned in the middle of Settle and a good base to reach other places . Would definitely return . Felt safe in these unfortunate COVID 19 times .

Wade December 2019

“Loved loved loved the view!”

A hair dryer would have been nice, it was a bit annoying to have to bring my own (bulky item in suitcase and did not have a British plug).

- Wade, December 2019
Mr Trigg September 2019

“A beautifully appointed apartment ideally located in the heart of Settle and a mere stones throw from some excellent pubs, bars and eateries.”

Also handily placed for exploring further afield either by car or train as the station is only a few minutes walk away. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be coming back

- Mr Trigg, September 2019
Mr Donnelly April 2019

“Excellent accommodation in the centre of Settle, which is a great base for exploring the dales.”

Lots of pubs and shops on your doorstep. Very clean, well equipped and modern flat on first floor of converted block. Living/kitchen area was very large with lots of natural light. Slight road noise in bedrooms which wasn't a problem for us but might disturb light sleepers.

- Mr Donnelly, April 2019
Mrs Czlapka March 2019

“The apartment was very spacious with plenty of room for four adults and one infant.”

It was extremely clean and in spite of the mixed weather we all enjoyed our weekend stay - plenty of cafes and restaurants in very easy reach. The kitchen was well stocked but we would have liked a bit more crockery, cutlery and saucepans so that we could cook more than one meal without setting a half empty dishwasher going! Other than that we were delighted with the accommodation and would definitely think about visiting again.

- Mrs Czlapka, March 2019
Miss Duce October 2018

“Ideal location with lots of varied walks on the doorstep.”

Lots of great cafes and shops too all within walking distance.

- Miss Duce, October 2018
The-Kent-Bees September 2018

“Comfortable, elegant flat”

This is a very well equipped, light, central, first floor flat with good dedicated parking and within easy reach of shops and eating places. Settle is friendly and pretty with some excellent loop walks from the town. Also with easy reach of Malham, Austwick and Ribblehead to see waterfalls and the famous viaduct. We especially enjoyed the Ingleborough Waterfalls Trail and the exhibitions (about Yorkshire Dales life and building the viaduct) in the Folly Museum.

- The-Kent-Bees, September 2018
Mrs Brown August 2018

“We had a really enjoyable trip to Cragdale, The apartment, in a great location was immaculately clean and comfortable.”

The whole area is magnificent with so much to see and do, even for non walkers like us. All in all a very successful holiday.

- Mrs Brown, August 2018
Ms Blair August 2018

“Absolutely lovely flat in a perfect location.”

A few tiny things would improve it: key box is hard to open and close, the lighting over the dining table is a bit lacking, and a folding airer would be a useful extra. But these are minuscule niggles and we had a fantastic time. Very welcome to find milk and wine in the fridge and biscuits by the kettle!

- Ms Blair, August 2018
Mrs Cooper August 2018

“Great well equipped and comfortable accommodation.”

Mrs Norvock April 2018

“Never visited Settle before and wanted to explore the area and go walking.”

Wow what a great choice of area and property to stay in. The property was exceptionally clean and modern, with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. Gorgeous main bathroom, beautiful en suite shower, comfy beds, well fitted kitchen with everything you need including a dishwasher and huge american style fridge freezer. Large comfy sofas in the lounge area and a big dining table and chairs, all open plan and very spacious. Most welcome was the milk, tea coffee and sugar to start us off and bottle of wine left for us to enjoy. The flat was easy to find and we certainly appreciated the designated parking spot. Right in the centre of Settle with 3 pubs all serving very good food all within a few minutes walk, fabulous after a day out walking. Also two very good indian restaurants and a few takeaway food outlets. Two supermarkets and numerous other shops made our stay a very good one. I can well recommend staying there Malham, Ingleton Waterfall trail, Pen y Gent , Inglebrough, Whernside, Skipton and the lakes all in easy reach from here. Plus the famous Settle to Carlisle scenic train journey. Had a fabulous week, cant wait to come again.

- Mrs Norvock, April 2018
Mrs Measor April 2018

“The apartment is lovely and is generally of a high standard.”

We really like the open plan living area with the wonderful view of Castleberg Crag. It's disappointing that there is a lack of ventilation in the en suite bathroom, that neither toilet flush very well and the sinks do not empty of water very quickly. Having said this it's acceptable. I'd like to see black out blinds in the bedrooms as the curtains although lined are very light and the bedroom windows very large. The tea, coffee and milk on arrival was a bonus and the bought cake was enjoyed. Is there any chance that black out blinds could be added to this apartment??

- Mrs Measor, April 2018
Miss Brown March 2018

“Cragdale was excellent accommodation - I would stay there again and recommend it.”

Good location for town centre facilities as well as being convenient for some good walking and transport links.

- Miss Brown, March 2018
Miss Duce February 2018

“The apartment was modern, very clean and had a homely feel.”

Fantastic location - central for exploring the dales on foot and also good public transport links meaning a relaxing holiday of not needing the car. Locals very friendly. Second time visiting and definitely not the last!!

- Miss Duce, February 2018
Mrs Cooper January 2018

Mrs Amey July 2017

“Lovely, spacious, well equipped apartment with fabulous view of Castleberg.”

Very central in Settle for shops, cafes, pubs, tourist info office and station. We loved it ! Settle is an extremely good centre for walking and a lovely little town.

- Mrs Hoyle, February 2017
Mr Musschoot October 2016

“In the kitchen we really missed some essentials, such as a ladle, a masher, something to make coffee (there wasn't even a cafetiere), a cutting board .”

.. The sitting area (with the two sofas) really was too dark to read a book. Same problem at the table: not enough light. The ensuite bathroom doesn't have ventilation which is a problem.

- Mr Musschoot, October 2016
Mrs McCall September 2016

About the location

SETTLE

Malham 6 miles; Skipton 17 miles; Kendal 25 miles.

The bustling market town of Settle lies at the south west rim of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, nestled beside the largest outcrop of limestone in Britain - a region of scars, cliffs, caves and potholes - amongst some of the most picturesque scenery in North Yorkshire. Tuesday is market day in Settle, when the square is filled with stalls offering a wide variety of crafts and goods. The market place is surrounded by local businesses, the centre being dominated by The Shambles, an historic three storey building with shops on two levels and houses above, and the Town Hall. There is a good selection of restaurants and pubs and a public swimming pool. The Victoria Hall has entertainment and other activities such as folk nights throughout the year. The famous Settle-Carlisle Railway crosses some of the most beautiful and inspiring upland scenery in the country. Natural attractions such as Malham Cove and Gordale Scar are within easy reach, as are the nearby Dales towns of Skipton and Malham. Settle is in the midst of excellent walking country and is a good base for touring the Dales, the Lake District and the Forest of Bowland.
