  • "We as a family thoroughly enjoyed our visit."

    The owners were very warm and welcoming and offered support no matter how insignificant. The location was fab set in the beautiful ribble valley and nearby Yorkshire dales. We spent everyday walking, visiting the many activities and locations available. The hot tub was a particular treat our 9 year old daughter loved it and was in every day! The weather generally was kind to us. We recommend Stable View Cottage to anyone with a sense of adventure and a feel for the outdoors including a cosy night in with the wood burner aglow.

  • "Very relaxing stay in a beautiful area."

    Spent a few days here, really enjoyed the cottage and it's setting on the stable yard. We were greeted by the host who was very welcoming. Loved seeing the horses and sheep just outside the window and having a chat with them over the garden fence! The cottage was clean and had everything we needed for our stay its very cosy & the hot tub was a great addition. The area is a hidden gem, very beautiful with plenty of walks and places to visit.

    Peace & quiet was our mission and we got that in abundance. Short drive to Clitheroe, Settle & Skipton. Plus many eateries just minutes away. Very comfortable, spacious and well maintained. We will recommend you to our friends and look forward to staying again. Many thanks.

    It's well finished and furnished and we found it very comfortable for a couple. There's a small patio outside with garden chairs and a hot tub (unused) and a narrow strip of grass bordering the adjacent field.

    Parking space right outside for simple unloading and a lovely private courtyard with hot tub to relax in at any time of day. The owners are so helpful and friendly and took time to show us around their stables to meet their wonderful horses and dogs. We would thoroughly recommend and look forward to returning. Thank you!!

  • "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Stable View Cottage with the hosts introducing themselves on arrival."

    The cottage was extremely cosy and provided us and our dog with all the comfort we required. We made use of the log burner on a couple of evenings due to the rather cold and wet weather in July and spent a lovely evening in the hot tub. For a working farm and equestrian center we were extremely impressed at how quiet our stay was. Our only very small niggle was the limited kitchen equipment. We do a lot of self catering holidays and always appreciate a well equipped kitchen. In particular the kitchen knives were rather blunt so invested in a couple. A casserole dish of some sort would also be very useful. Thank you to our hosts for allowing us to stay in your lovely cottage and will certainly consider a return visit.

    Lovely views all around, we were taken back by how beautiful this area was. The property was clean and well maintained, and comfy beds too. The hot tub was up and running when we arrived, in a lovely court yard garden. We had everything we needed. The owners, Claire and Peter, were extremely welcoming and kind. They had horses and ponies that we got to meet and a lovely foal that we enjoyed watching in the field. We got to meet a lovely litter on puppies that Claire and Pete kindly allowed us to cuddle. We would love to return again as it was so lovely and very relaxed.

    It was great to have plenty of bins in bedrooms and the bathroom and a dressing table and stool to get made up in front of - little things but home from home things . Claire and Peter the owners were friendly and even let us look at the horses and the beautiful new born Shetland pony whenever we wanted . There was even a little of puppies!!! The setting is fantastic with lovely views, it was our first time in Ribble Valley but we will certainly be back as the little villages and views were fantastic. Pendle Hill is a must with panoramic views. All in all a brilliant holiday - thank you Claire and Peter .

    ABSOLUTELY PERFECT... apart for the rain last 2 days haha, but even rain didnt dampen our spirits! The Cottage had everything we needed and was very welcoming. The hot tub was divine, I was hooked! As for the owners... so riendly and helpful. The fact that we felt part of this working farm made us feel good inside.. We could hear the horses every day. we could watch them in the paddock being exercised and I think the horses (Bailey.... ?) liked having us as neighbours just over the fence! The owners children when we saw them, were lovely and gave us a friendly hello.. And the sheep and lambs came to feed off the field in front of our kitchen window for a few days.. Honestly.. it was brill! One of the best things was the breathtaking pictre of the surroundings we were just dropped in the middle of! Hills, greenery and the most majestic tree in front of the Cottage with a backdrop of the best and biggest sunsets! Thankyou too Claire for allowing us a gentle departure.. not rushing us off.. and your husband came and chatted to us and offered help with the tv on our 2nd day which was appreciated. He made us feel 'invited' if you can uderstand that. We would stay again in a heartbeat.. 11 out of 10 and thank you so much for having us stay.

We didn’t realise how close we were to so much to do. The World of Beatrix Potter and the Lake District were an hour away, Blackpool was an hour away, so many little market towns around like Clitheroe and Skiptpn that have markets on different days.

    It was a good space for our 7 month old to have a crawl around too. There was a travel cot and high chair in the cupboard, but we couldn't see this on the facilities before we went, so took our own. The only room for improvement we would say is for a sweeping brush in addition to the dustpan, as it would have made cleaning up the baby's mess from weaning a bit easier. Overall we had a great time, there were so many lovely walks to do, and so much we didn't have time for. The hot tub was a food bonus too!

  • "A beautiful break away where it was easy to forget how strange of a year it has been."

    The cottage has everything you need which was great as we had mainly brought ingredients with us and we were never stuck with missing out on a utensil or anything like that. We were really able to make it our home while we were there as it was extremely peaceful. There was a heatwave so we were able to eat breakfast in the court yard everyday and enjoy the beautiful views. The bed is huge and comfortable which made it hard to leave. There is plenty in driving distance and if you have been out walking there are few things better than coming back to the hot tub which was gorgeous everyday. Would highly recommend.

    We not only enjoyed the warmth and comfort of this well appointed cottage we were able to use the private secluded hot tub well lit by stars and more than adequate outside lighting.We took advantage of the short walks with our pooch Rosie without the need for the car.This location had easy access to the many attractions around including Skipton and Clitheroe which are both market towns.The Spread Eagle pub is well worth a visit five minutes drive and very dog friendly with excellent food we would recommend Wednesday. Our hosts Claire Peter and the girls were very friendly and very helpful with anything we needed or information we required this also includes pip the friendly sheepdog and the pet ponies which came to greet us on arrival..This cottage experience will be something we will always remember especially in our 50th wedding anniversary year.We can't wait to return. Many thanks Ray Lorraine and Rosie the cokerpoo .

    I understand this is a working farm and livery, but on arrival, it is not at all obvious that you have arrived at your holiday cottage as you see nothing of Stable View when pulling into the front yard. Entrance to the parking area is often obscured with farm vehicles and horse boxes. The poor changed up dog in the front yard, running out and barking could also be off-putting.

Climb the stairs to bed after a tiring day and find a charming super king-size double room with zip/link beds giving you the option of a twin set up if you prefer.

There is also a single room and a beautiful shower room waking you up each morning with modern fixtures.

Step out onto the patio from the dining area and soak up a sun-filled day with a drink in hand and a good book to get your teeth into.

Dip in the hot tub for a spot of luxury on a balmy evening and relax your muscles in the warm bubbles before enjoying a night in with your loved ones.You have a plethora of walking trails and bridleways close by for those who like to get out and about in the fresh country air.

The surrounding Ribble Valley is a sight to behold, a wondrous region of natural beauty waiting to be explored.

A short drive away (approx 6 miles) is Gisburn Forest famed for its mountain biking tracks and walking.
