"The apartment was clean and in a lovely position near a great pub."
Under floor heating in the bathroom was brilliant. A few annoying things though. Water didn't stay warm all day and had to keep putting on a couple of switches at least twice a day. Radiators not very warm. Cutlery and mugs just 4 of each so had to keep washing up or putting dishwasher on. Only one toilet roll! Lounge door very draughty.
-
"Comfortable accomodation."
Everything was in good working order. The location is great for exploring the surrounding area, and the nearby pub served excellent food. We are very likely to book the same property again.
-
"On the whole it was a poor holiday."
.the property stated that a DVD player was available which was important for our visit however no player was there and the owners did not provide one during our stay..very disappointing.. Also although a log burner was there no initial supplies were provided so not possible to have a lit fire..poor organisation by the owner..

"All in all a really lovely restful week but awful weather!"
Austwick is a lovely village with very friendly people and the Gamecock pub is a must it is wonderful.The flat is just as described with walks from the door and beautiful countryside everywhere and the Courtyard Dairy towards Settle is not to be missed.
-
"The flat was clean every thing was as described and in perfect working order."
Plenty of room and storage. It's a lovely base to explore north yorkshire and the lakes. The only thing I felt was missing was a coffee table or small side tables. There was nowhere to put snacks or a glass of wine while chilling in front of the TV in the evening. I used a chair from the dining area
-
"Great location and the flat is very clean and well equipped."
Would highly recommended as a good base for visiting the Dales. Only suggestion would be to provide a decent bread knife for cutting the fab bread from the Game Cock's bakery.
-
"Fantastic location, gamecock is a lovely pub and bakery."
Would certainly recommend anyone to stay at orchard leigh

"Lovely apartment with fabulous views."
Really enjoyed sitting on the patio enjoying wonderful views of the countryside. Even when weather not so good you can still enjoy views from sofa through patio doors. Great location.
-
"This is a lovely ground floor flat, very clean and comfortable with everything you nee for your holiday."
I love the fact that the lounge has patio doors with views right across the valley. Austwick is a very pretty village with loads of walks from the doorstep, and easy access to the Dales, Lakes, and forest of Bowland. Very friendly pub serving excellent food and a well stocked village shop. Highly recommended.

"Fantastic location and very comfortable apartment."
We had a lovely holiday at Orchard Leigh. It was very cold when we arrived as the heating had been turned off, but by next day it heated up and was fine. Lovely modern apartment in a very pretty village, clean, bright, airy and comfortable. Log burner a real treat. Thank you for a lovely holiday.

"Holiday was lovely."
Had everything it needed. The Owner Andrew was extremely helpful and respectful. Definitely enjoyed my stay. Good bed too.
-
"Fantastic location and very comfortable apartment."
Rather cold, only 12 degrees on arrival, and took 3 days to fully warm up. We should have lit the stove earlier! But it was winter... Great walking nearby and lovely pub.
-
"Very cosy comfortable apartment."
Location excellent with good views and plenty of walks from the door.
-
"Lovely modern apartment in a gorgeous village."
Very clean and an excellent shower. Owners extremely helpful. Fabulous village pub and bakery, well stocked village shop and many walks from the door. Will definitely be returning. Thank you for a lovely holiday.
-
"The property was as advertised."
Everything was fantastic from start to finish. A credit to the owner indeed. We would stay there again in the future as there was so much more we could have done in the area. Thanks for the opportunity to stay there.

Had a lovely stay in this apartment, was spotlessly clean and cozy, I would definitely go again, lovely walks from a quaint little village

"Impressed by the cleanliness, comfort and equipping of this property."
The views from it and the village and surroundings are exceptional. Everything First Class.
-
"We were unable to get any power to the washing machine."
As we were staying for a fortnight it would have been very useful to be able to use it. Nevertheless we felt that it was a lovely apartment in a lovely area and would like to go back again next year.
-
"Lovely place to stay."
Very good communication from the owners. Easy access to Ingleton and Settle and the surrounding areas. We would definitely stay again.

"A lovely little apartment with a big main bedroom but tiny kitchen (one at a time in there!"
) in an absolutely perfect spot for exploring the Dales. 5 miles from Settle, less than 2 miles from Clapham, amazing views and some lovely little local walks. Great pub just 1 minute walk away. Attentive owner who left us some milk in the fridge and a pack of lovely biscuits. Lovely shower with warm underfloor heating. Recommend for couples or, like us, a couple with one teenager. Good value for money.
-
"The house was perfect in every respect."
Clean, comfortable and cosy and only 2 minutes from the welcoming Gamecock Hotel and village shop. Lots of good walks from the door especially the walk to the lovely village of Clapham for lunch in the New Inn.
-
"The property was extremely clean and facilities were well provided for."
The property was easy to use and flowed well. I wish all of rented cottages were as good.
-
"Excellent holiday apartment with every amenity in a beautiful area."
Handy for Lakes and Dales with a pub on the doorstep!
-
"I don't agree that I, having paid for the holiday and all services and cleaning, should have to strip the bed, empty the bin and put on then empty."
I would rather pay more for the holiday and have these things done as part of the service.
-
"This is a really lovely holiday apartment."
Beautifully clean and comfortable, it has everything you could need. The kitchen is well equipped, the beds comfortable, spacious shower room and a generous sized shower. The lounge has patio doors giving a lovely view across the valley, and access to the paved patio. The village pub is a 2 minute walk, serving good food and selling their own patisserie and bread. A well stocked friendly village shop means you don't need to travel far for your shopping. Dozens of walks on the doorstep and plenty of places to visit. Would not hesitate in recommending.
-
"Lovely, well equipped flat in the village centre."
Very close to pub, patisserie, bakery n shop. Great off road parking in a popular village. Lovely walks from the flat and close to other places of interest. We had a great time.

"The apartment was very comfortable, especially the bed, best nights sleep I've had in a long time."

"Absolutely wonderful stay, comfy very clean everything there should it be needed, we didn’t cook but nevertheless kitchen well equipped."
Lovely modern bathroom, comfy bed (which is very important to us). Excellent location to explore the wonders of the local areas. Will definitely return at some pint. Thank you Andrew/Jeremy. Mark & Christine, North Wales.

"Superb cottage, spotlessly clean, comfy bed, great location, friendly neighbours and would highly recommend it to others."

"Lovely village, and the apartment is well equipped and comfortable, as described."

"Lovely village and excellent walks from the flat."
We did feel that the accommodation was more suitable for two only ,the kitchen/ dining area would be very cramped for 4 adults.The decoration is very tasteful.The owners were very helpful.

"My wife & I visited in October 2020 with our 8 month cockapoo."
A very clean & well appointed apartment, really cozy for the autumn. No wood supplied for fire but village shop sells bags of logs. The courtyard area has a low wall & if you have a dog you’d need to keep it on a lead, could be hard work if you want to use this area in good weather. The area; I’m a keen walker, I have a copy of Wainwright’s ‘walks in limestone country’, a great guide for the local area & fells. Ingleborough is a good walk from the apartment via Clapham, Ingleborough Cave, Trow Gill & the opening of Gaping Gill, a great day. Many local walks, especially Elaine’s tea rooms in Feizor, easy 45 mins & dog friendly, superb cakes. Austwick beck is down a footpath just past playing fields, 10 min walk & a beautiful spot. Locally the village shop is well stocked, friendly local advice from a very helpful couple. We only went to the Gamecock pub twice, but felt with Covid restrictions they were a bit stressed, why leave the apartment with everything on hand for a comfortable evening.? Definitely would return.
-
"Great accommodation, very clean & comfortable."
Everything we needed for a well deserved break away. Excellent walks from the door, Some great choices for eating out nearby.Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. Very dog friendly.
-
"Disappointed with the accommodation."
There wasn’t anywhere to hang up coats except in the wardrobe. A real issue due to the rain, coats couldn’t be dried. It said it was dog friendly but there was nowhere to put a basket and the dog wasn’t allowed in the bedroom where there was space. Beds and sofas were uncomfortable. Upstairs neighbours were very noisy and kept us awake past midnight
-
"The apartment was clean and bright, hand sanitizer by the front door and hand wash available in both the kitchen and bathroom."
Rooms comfortable and kitchen well equipped. Amazing views from the patio and glorious weather to enjoy them too. Neighbours friendly and welcoming. The Gamecock pub is on the doorstep and has very good food, booking recommended. Village shop well stocked and safety aware. Some nice walks locally. Local jams and preserves for sale right by the apartment - Hearth to Toast -definitely recommend as very moreish!
-
"Lovely modern flat in small village."
Lots of walks nearby and places to visit. Enjoyed fish and chips from Fisherman in Settle - Local pub got booked up early, think maybe busier than normal with Eat out to Help scheme.

"We had a lovely welcome."
Car easily parked 20y away in designated bay. Apartment was immaculate, everything was clean and fresh and all appliances worked. It was lovely and warm too. Great view to the hills over other houses in Austwick. The beds were really comfortable. The location was ideal. Great walks in and around Austwick and one of the best pubs around 50y from the front door. Highly recommended. We'll be back!

"Everything about the appartment was excellent, we were disappointed as to how it was located, it is within a busy little area , doubtless genteel but not quite as secluded as we would have liked, it was difficult to manage our dog's bathroom habits in this location, also you cannot keep the car near your appartment, which is no problem but with us it is where the dog rests when not walking."
That out of the way it is a lovely position, near an excellent pub, near an also excellent shop and easy access to walks. The food shopping in the area was of the highest standard , in 9 days we only had two meals out as the kitched facilities were truly excellent. and we like to cook. We want to go back to this part of the world, very much, if we couild find a position with more seclusion.

"NB: The lock of the door to the flat was at times difficult to operate."

I would definitely stay here again and would not hesitate to recommend to anyone. Really loved it.

"Located in lovely village surrounded by scenic views and an area good for walking, cycling, driving or just relaxing."
The apartment has pleasant views over rooftops to distant hills. The apartment is recently renovated and therefore everything is new. It was tastefully decorated for Christmas and the lights gave a cosy glow. There was a basket of wood for the wood burner in the living room but the place was toasty warm without.

About the location
AUSTWICK
Settle 5 miles; Ingleton 5 miles; Skipton 20 miles.
Situated on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, this is arguably one of the finest areas for walking in the region. With limestone pavements and scars, caves and open moors, the area has a wealth of natural interest and there are wonderful cycle tracks and walks on the doorstep. Austwick boasts a local pub serving excellent home cooked meals and a country hotel for something a little more special, as well as a shop and Post Office for visitors’ daily requirements. This quiet village is nicely off the beaten track, yet the market towns of Settle, Kirkby Lonsdale, Skipton and Kendal are all within easy driving distance.
