  • "A Perfect Christmas Retreat at Devonshire House I recently had the pleasure of staying at Devonshire House over the Christmas holiday, and I can wholeheartedly say it was one of the best holiday experiences I've ever had."

    From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this cottage is a true gem, filled with character and warmth. The attention to detail throughout the cottage is remarkable; every corner reflects Hannah's thoughtful care for her guests. The cleanliness was of an exceptionally high standard, making us feel right at home the moment we stepped inside. Everything from the quality crockery to the beautifully chosen décor, luxurious bedding, and delightful homely touches created an inviting atmosphere that was perfect for our festive stay. The location of Devonshire House is absolutely fabulous! Just a short walk away, we discovered not one, but three charming pubs, which made for lovely evening outings. The village itself is a treasure, boasting quaint little bistros and a delightful tea room – perfect for savoring a leisurely afternoon. The surrounding scenery in North Yorkshire is nothing short of breathtaking, and the stunning 30-minute drive from Settle to Skipton added to our experience. It was the ideal balance between the tranquility of a small town and the vibrancy of a larger one, making our day trips very enjoyable. A particularly lovely touch was the welcome pack that awaited us, complete with a thoughtful card, a bottle of wine, and milk in the fridge. It’s these little extras that made our stay feel so special. I would not hesitate to recommend Devonshire House to anyone looking for a cozy retreat in North Yorkshire, and I am already looking forward to booking this wonderful property again in the summer. Thank you, Hannah, for providing such a memorable holiday experience!

    Thank you for such a wonderful review. I’m glad you had a good time and look forward to welcoming you back again Property Owner

The property

Devonshire House sits in the heart of Settle, North Yorkshire, offering an appealing base for families or friends eager to explore the dramatic scenery, timeless villages, and famed walking routes of the Yorkshire Dales.

Sleeping six guests across four bedrooms, the property pairs its traditional stone-built character with thoughtful modern touches, creating a home that feels rooted in the landscape yet ready for easy holiday living.

The standout feature of the house is the spacious wooden farmhouse kitchen, where cooking and conversation naturally come together.

With an electric oven, dishwasher, and a central kitchen island complete with breakfast stools, it’s a room designed for morning coffee rituals, shared meal preparation, and relaxed gatherings.

A small dining table offers a spot for casual bites before heading out to explore the Dales.

The living room provides a welcoming setting to settle in after a day outdoors, with an electric wood burner bringing a gentle glow with a three seater sofa, a two seater sofa and a chair offering plenty of space for film nights, reading, or simply recounting the day’s adventures.

Upstairs, two double bedrooms and two singles create a versatile layout for mixed groups or families.

The principal double features its own en-suite shower room with a walk-in shower, while the remaining rooms are served by a main bathroom complete with a shower.

Each bedroom carries its own character, shaped by the building’s heritage and peaceful location.

Outside, off-road parking makes arrivals simple, and the property’s pet-friendly approach ensures four-legged explorers can join the adventure.

Settle places everything within easy reach, from independent shops and cafés to the iconic Settle, Carlisle railway, one of the most scenic rail journeys in the UK.

Nearby, tranquil walks await around a nearby lake, while the surrounding Dales offer endless opportunities for discovery.

Malham is a highlight, home to Malham Cove’s towering amphitheatre of limestone, the woodland beauty of Janet’s Foss, and the dramatic forces of nature on display at Gordale Scar.

In Clapham, you’ll find Ingleborough Cave, the leafy trails of the Ingleborough Estate, and the challenging ascent to the summit itself, rewarded by sweeping views across the national park.

Blending heritage, space, and a gateway location to some of Yorkshire’s most celebrated landscapes, Devonshire House provides a memorable setting for a Dales escape at any time of year.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.

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.
