Would definitely recommend x

"Lovely comfortable little cottage with an amazing welcome pack."
-
"This was our second visit and both were great, the welcome basket is lovely and even included stuff for the dogs."
-
"The cottage was, as previously cosy and welcoming."
There was a lovely 'welcome pack' of goodies, for humans and dogs. We can't think of anything that was missing to make our stay as enjoyable as always. We hope to return soon. Thank you once again to our wonderful hosts/owners.
-
"Had a great family break, nice cosy clean cottage, well equipped and all the basics were already provided."
The hosts have thought of everything very welcoming and great communication. Plenty of places to visit in the local area to keep yourselves busy, would recommend and be happy to stay again. Thanks.

"Croft Cottage was fantastic."
Beautifully clean and tidy. Welcome basket was greatly appreciated and there was even milk in the fridge for us. Our dog had a jar of treats as well! The welcome pack was comprehensive with all that we needed to know. Everything you could possibly have needed had been provided. So much attention to detail was given to making our stay exceptionally comfortable. Just a wonderful base from which to explore. Thank you Jacquie!

"Lovely, very dog friendly"
-
"Best,clean Holiday cottage ,if you didn't need it ,it wasn't there !"
! Everything you could possibly need was available Lovely village and close to Skipton .
-
"Excellent cottage."
Very well-appointed and high quality throughout. Spotlessly clean and a very generous welcome package on arrival. Great location for exploring the limestone country with walks available straight from the doorstep.
-
"Fabulous dog friendly cottage with dog safe small garden at back."
Parking also at back but tight - like most car parks, since cars have got larger. Everything, and more, than we needed was catered for. Welcome pack for humans and furry guests. Very comfortable bed - very important, and a very lovely host.
-
"The cottage is easily located and well situated for exploration of the local area or going further afield."
The cottage itself is lovely, very comfortable and well looked after. The enclosed gardens (front and back) were a real bonus for our little dog, even though the weather wasn't the best. The facilities provided were all functional, clean and well looked after, the only improvement I would suggest is for a 'shaving' mirror to be placed over the sink in the bathroom. The other thing I think is worth highlighting is car parking .. there is a parking space, but it is very tight getting in and out .. anything such as a 4X4 or SUV or similar simply would not fit.

"Settees just a little low for older people but comfortable just a little harder to get up out of."
-
"Lovely comfortable cottage."
Everything needed for a lovely stay.
-
"The cottage was lovely and very clean, the welcome pack and the milk in the fridge was a lovely touch for when we arrived."
My son loved the eggs that were laid by your hens
-
"This must have been out 4th stay at Croft Cottage and it never fails to disappoint."
Jacquie is such a lovely and generous host and on hand if needed. Being Winter we enjoyed the log burner every night for which we had plenty of logs. The A65 which runs through Long Preston is busy but on the plus side it makes driving to Skipton or Settle very convenient. Having the train station down the road also makes it handy if you fancy the famous Settle - Carlisle route.
-
"Good location and very convenient for pub/shop/station, it was also generally very comfortable and cosy."
Kitchen was extremely well equipped. Very welcome touches were the bottle of wine, bread, milk and eggs. There could have been a bit more kindling/matches for the fire and the toilet seat was a bit loose/wonky, light outside porch was dim and gate onto road was broken but these were only minor issues. Overall a great/memorable stay.
-
"This was our second visit."
Everything we could need was provided, including an extensive welcome pack. Our dogs were catered for too, although we naturally brought things we thought they may need. Even a dogs towel was provided for wet days etc. The owners are easy to contact, friendly and helpful. The cottage is clean, cosy and comfortable and well maintained. We hope to return soon.
-
"Homely clean and fully equipped loads of information"
-
"We had a lovely weekend break at the cottage."
It feels just like home- warm and cosy. Well equipped and lots of brochures to help you decide where to go. The Maypole pub is so welcoming and good food.
-
"Really comfortable property in a great location"
-
"Lovely cottage, very clean and cosy."
Every provision was made by the owners to make you welcome with so many home comforts. . Surprise hampers for dogs and their owners. We have never stayed anywhere else as nice as this and Croft Cottage is a testament to the owners.
-
"We had a lovely stay in Croft Cottage."
Ideally situated between Skipton and Settle so a great base. The welcome pack was greatly appreciated. The owners were extremely helpful and accommodating throughout the booking to ensure we had everything we would need. The only slight issue we had was trying to get in and out of the second car as there wasn’t much space at all. Top tip - reverse the second car in, it made it so much easier.
-
"Dog treats & poo bags a extra bonus"
-
"A very comfortable cottage and dog friendly with a secure garden."
The owners left a lovely welcome pack. Good location and not far from Skipton, Malham Cove, Ingleton Falls etc. There is only one small shop and pub in the village, but there is a slightly larger village with more amenities within a 5 minute drive. The station is a 3 minute walk away and I went to Skipton on the train while my family walked Malham Cove. I would stay here again.
-
"Absolutely lovely cottage."
Dog treats for the dog and human treats too. Absolutely brilliant. On arrival due to road works and the road being closed, we met the one of the owners in the local pub carpark. He very kindly guided round the alternate route to the cottage and made sure everything was okay. Very grateful for his help.
-
"We really enjoyed our stay."
The welcome pack was much appreciated and also the treats for the dog. The fresh eggs from the owners hens were very tasty.
-
"Property was as described."
Kitchen was well equipped with everything working and in good order. Lounge was comfortable and the tv had Freeview which is always useful to have. The bed in the main bedroom was super comfortable and there was plenty of space for clothes storage. Shower in the bathroom was easy to operate and nice and hot. We have 2 dogs, so it was good that the back garden area was fenced off (though bigger dogs might be able to leap over it). There are 2 parking spaces and once we arrived we didn’t use the car until we went home, as the rail station is about 3 minutes walk away, and there are buses in the village centre about a 4 minute walk away. The owner left us a small basket which included wine, bread, milk, cake, shortbread and treats for the dogs ! We would definitely stay there again.
-
"Excellent property."
Very clean and every need provided for. Lovely welcome pack. Much appreciated. Very welcoming and friendly village, with a pub nearby, providing very good food and a friendly atmosphere. We humans and our dog companions were made to feel thoroughly 'at home'. Would highly recommend the property and the owners' diligence and care.
-
"Wonderful cottage, well equipped and cosy, lovely welcome pack for people and dogs alike, every little detail thought of."
Owner is very helpful and we would thoroughly recommend this cottage, and the lovely location, and would love to return.
-

Lovely snug little cottage with absolutely everything you could possibly want and the welcome hampers were a really lovely touch for us and our dog Jacquies eggs were delicious
-
"Really enjoyed our 3 night stay to celebrate my 50th birthday."
The accommodation was very cozy and a good base to get in some good walks. We appreciated both welcome gift packs the owners chickens laid us some lovely eggs and our dog loved the treats in his gift pack. Would stay again if visiting the area again.
-
"Croft cottage was excellent."
Everything you need was provided. Very comfortable. & nice & warm. Highly recommend.

"Lovely cottage, well presented and lovely and clean."
Lovely welcome pack with cake, biscuits and wine and also bread, milk and lovely eggs amongst plenty of other things. Can't rate highly enough.
-
"We absolutely loved our stay in Croft Cottage and would love to book here again whenever we next visit the beautiful Yorkshire Dales."
We stayed over Christmas and had the most brilliant time! The cottage has everything you could possibly need and was extremely clean. Great location for gorgeous walks, bedrooms were bigger than we expected, and the hosts were amazing - Jacquie and Paul truly made our Christmas time extra special. Thank you for everything!! Xx
-

"The cottage was great and the owners came immediate we had a small problem with the TV remote."
She sorted it out immediately. Very nice cottage and walks for the dogs, where you can let them off leads. Lovely relaxing few days thank you x
-
"Croft Cottage exceeded our expections!"
It’s one of the cleanest, best equipped cottages and best value cottages we’ve ever stayed in. It’s a great base to explore the area and a welcoming comfortable home to return to each day. The booking process was straightforward and all necessary details, plus additional helpful information, was received in good time for our holiday. We’ve booked through Sykes before and expect to do so in the future.
-
"Probably the cleanest well equipped cottage we've stopped in and the welcome package was second to none"
-
"The cottage was lovely and clean and a welcome pack was left which was much appreciated."
We had a little problem with trying to lock one of the doors while we were there but on contacting owners they were straight round to fix the problem which we were most grateful for. Walks from the house were great. All once through the village on very quiet lanes and tracks and the routes we used were very well described. Some styles were a little difficult if you had a six stone dog like ours getting on in years. Cycling perfect from house over to Settle via Wiggleswade and on to Austwick and Clapham great on quiet roads and back; 30 miles perfect. A really good base. Would use it again.
-
"Nice comfy cottage in a really good location with lots of walks for dog and easy traveling distance to Gisburn forest and Malham for additional walks."
Also good access to trains
-
"Croft Cottage was a comfortable, well equipped holiday cottage, in a lovely village."
Our hosts left a very generous welcome hamper, for both us and our dog, and provided lots of information leaflets about the surrounding area, which were very useful. All the rooms were very clean, and the kitchen was well equipped. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely consider returning in the future. Thank You Jacquie.
-
"The cottage was well presented, and had everything we needed."
It's location - just 3m from Settle at the South Western edge of the Yorkshire Dales - made it easy to get to lots of places of interest both in the Dales and elsewhere e.g. Kirby Lonsdale. Long Preston is also a very attractive village in which to stay. Will definitely consider returning.
-
"The cottage was very well equipped and ideal for a holiday break."
Excellent package of food essentials left by owners was more than we expected. One suggestion would be to put some coat hooks in the entrance hall as only place to hang coats was on banisters and not ideal if they are wet. Overall a very enjoyable stay with great pub the Maypole just a few minutes walk.
-
"Comfortable,everything you could want was provided."
Would recommend this cottage as a place to stay .
-
"Love the finishing touches (milk in fridge) doggi biscuits) and bread already there."
Very clean

-
"Lovely cottage ,in a beautiful village ."
The house was immaculately clean. Very well equipped kitchen( just missing a dishwasher).Jacqui had left a lovely welcome basket, milk in the fridge and goodies for the dogs which was a lovely touch . The beds were very comfortable, but the lighting in the bedrooms isn’t the best , could do with being brighter . Would definitely recommend Croft cottage and wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again .
-
"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Croft Cottage."
The cottage was extremely comfortable in a lovely quiet location. We enjoyed using the logwood burner and were very grateful for our welcome basket. My little boy loved seeing the ponies in the neighbouring field. Jacquie made us feel extremely welcome and even went out of her way to deliver a prize we had won at the local village coffee morning.We will definitely return in the future.
-
"No fire guard so unable to light fire as dog stopping in property"
-
"Warm and cosy."
Very comfortable bed. Easy communication to owner. Generous welcome baskets for humans and non humans ! We all enjoyed our stay and meal in Boars Head was delicious. One suggestion for improvement would be a new set of pans.
-
"Great place for walking - even right from the cottage door."
The owner is very friendly and is always available if you have any problems. We didn’t.
-
"Gorgeous cottage with everything we could need and more, very well placed to explore the dales."
Welcome packs were lovely.
-
"Holiday cottage was comfy and clean and we had a lovely week exploring the Yorkshire dales, skipton, Malham, settle."
Owners we're good enough to send sandals bk that were left behind at no extra charge. Only thing I would flag up for improving my stay, kitchen utensils eg potato masher, tin opener, spatulas we're not great quality and could be replaced by slightly better quality items. There were a couple of tin foil trays that had been washed and left but could do with some sturdy trays for use in oven. Owners were very kind, generous leaving a very good quality welcome pack with fresh eggs, milk, cakes etc, lovely treats for our dog too. Would return if I wanted to visit yorkshire again. Thankyou so much!
-
"Very nice place couldn't fault it"
-
"Lovely cottage in a quiet area with good walks from the door, close to the train station so you could leave the car at the cottage for a day away."
-
"Croft Cottage was beautifully clean and really well equipped, a real home from home."
A huge welcome pack on arrival which included the owner’s fresh eggs along with bread, milk and cakes. Also a welcome pack for our dog and the garden is totally enclosed. Long Preston is ideally situated for exploring the Yorkshire Dales National Park. I highly recommend this cottage.
-
"Fantastic place to stay,would definitely stay here again ,very clean and tidy,the welcome packs for us and our dog was a nice touch,everything you need is ln the cottage ,very nice all round ."
Many thanks
-

-
"Would recommend the cottage."

Real home from home! Spotlessly clean, lovely welcome pack on arrival not only for us but for our dog too . The walks were great from the cottage . We will definitely be returning.
-

Close to Settle for shopping. Well equipped property. Spot on!
-
"Excellent all round."
Will recommend to others.
-
"Croft cottage is ideally situated for exploring the Yorkshire Dales and is very well served by the nearby village pub and post office/general store."
It is warm and welcoming and unusually very well equiped with the addition of a substantial welcome pack, which included bread, milk, eggs, cake and biscuits. The beds are comfortable and the shower very good. The only thing lacking [in my view] was a full length mirror but that may just be my idea of an essential. Kindling and coal was provided for the stove.
-
"On arrival Jacquie made us feel very welcome and the people in the area were very friendly."
A good base for some lovely walks.
-
"What a wonderful week away, Croft Cottage was delightful, very well equipped warm and comfortable, lovely welcome packs for us and the dog as well !"
! We were blessed with a great week weatherwise and were out everyday, the local pub the Boars Head was very friendly and welcomed our dog as did all the other pubs we visited in the Dales. We'll be back !!!
-
"Our original booking was cancelled due to COVID-19 and we arrived instead for August Bank holiday week."
Easy to find and gain access to the property. Jacque had left 2 welcome hampers, one for us and one for our yellow Labrador, so thank you very much for these they were great to receive. The cottage had everything you could want for a weeks holiday and we didn’t need to buy anything like washing up liquid etc as they were already there so that was fab. We visited many places while staying there and enjoyed Aysgarth and Ingleton waterfalls, Bolton Abbey, Fountains Abbey, Settle and Skipton. We ate one day at Beck Hall, Secret Garden in Malham Cove and thought it was a lovely setting. Many thanks again.
-
"Lovely well appointed cottage, nice little extras like milk, bread, eggs and wine left plus all the do treats."
Would definitely return
-
"Fabulous cottage, everything you need and more, lovely little hampers upon arrival ( including one for the dog) spotlessly clean and comfortable, excellent location, only one little drawback is the Maypole pub is now closed and that only leaves The Boars Head doing food within walking distance and that’s not the greatest ( no competition I suppose?"
)If ever we holidaying in this part of the world wouldn’t hesitate to book this little gem again!!!
-
"The cottage was perfect, everything we could possibly need was provided."
The welcome hamper with fresh eggs and wine was a lovely touch. Very cosy cottage in a good location to access tourist attractions in the area. Perfect amount of space for our dogs, dog bags, towel and treats provided. The local shop was good, very tasty local produce. We visited Skipton Castle, Malham cove, settle's folley and ancient woodland and inglebrough caves while staying and I would recommend all these attractions.
-
"Lovely cottage and great welcome hamper - and for the dog as well!"
Would be great to have a veg steamer but all other equipment was excellent. Great information about the area and walks in the area too and further afield.
-
"This was a last minute booking infact I rang at 5pm the night before we wanted to go!"
Thankfully it wasn't a problem. Arrived to a spotlessly clean cottage, so beautiful and homely. There was everything you needed and more. The bed was so comfy, the shower was great and the cottage warm. Jacquie was a delight so helpful, and there is a lot of information at the cottage. The icing on the cake were two welcome hampers, one for the dogs and one for us, which we all enjoyed. Will certainly be returning to this little gem. Perfect.
-
"Brilliant homely cosy cottage as described."
Very generous welcome pack of food and drinks. Location was nice and quiet, especially as their is a main road close by. Must visits are Ingelton Waterfalls and Malham Cove. Overall a lovely relaxing holiday was had.
-
"We had such a lovely time at Croft cottage celebrating my dads belated 50th birthday."
The cottage was clean, cozy & we left feeling content. The boars head is just up the road and serves gorgeous food, would definitely recommend. Jacquie met us at the cottage upon our arrival and left us the most loveliest welcome hamper and handmade birthday card for my dad which was a lovely touch. A 3 night stay wasn’t long enough we could’ve stayed forever! The wood burner was amazing and made it so warm and cozy!! Beds are comfy, showers great, kitchen well equipped. We had a fabulous time and will be back in the near future.
-
"Lovely cottage, really well located."
The welcome packs were very generous and a nice touch. Jacquie met us at the cottage explained everything and left us to it. It was nice to come back to the lovely fire in an evening and was very much a home from home cottage. Would definitely recommend.
-
"Croft cottage was excellent we were met by owner Jacqui who explained everything ..."
Croft cottage was excellent we were met by owner Jacqui who explained everything and left a welcome hamper which was excellent the cottage was so cosy especially the fire loads of books and dvds fabulous location very clean and beautiful decor will definitely be back
-
"Delightful cottage - and so handy for visiting so many places in the area."
We were made very welcome by the owner, Jacquie, who greeted us on our arrival with a lovely welcome pack for us and our dog. Felt at home straight away. Croft cottage is well equipped and obvious that a lot of thought and care has gone into its preparation as a holiday home.
-
"What a lovely cottage in a great location."
Croft Cottage was wonderfully well equipped with everything you could need. It had a real ‘home from home’ feel about it and the dogs clearly felt at home. Nice welcome packs too and tea, coffee, sugar canisters filled. Also toilet rolls, kitchen roll, cleaning products all there. Beds were extremely comfortable, everything worked as it should with lots of nice little touches in the house. Well situated for the 3 Peaks which we did over 3 days with the dogs - was the hottest week of the year! Malham Cove also worth a visit. Loved the market town of Settle and driving through the Dales. Long Preston itself was a nice little village - 2 pubs which let dogs in - in fact nearly all the pubs around that area are dog-friendly. People very nice too. A fantastic little cottage - an all round fab holiday. Just one thing to bear in mind the A65 which runs through the village can be very busy and the traffic noise was noticeable but probably just because we aren’t used to it.
-
"The cottage exceeded our expectations and the welcome pack was really good, especially the fresh eggs and coffee."
Also the doggy pack was unexpected, treats, toys and poo bags.
-
"A delightful cottage and very secure for dogs."
Owners Jacquie and Paul were extremely thoughtful and left beautiful welcome packs both for us and the dogs which was very much appreciated.
-
"A very nice cottage,clean and well equipped."
Good village position handy walking distance to two pubs which serve excellent food and are dog friendly. The owner left us a nice wellcome pack and one for the dogs also. Would recommend this cottage and hope to return soon.
-
"Delightful cottage in a convenient location - small village with shop, post office and good pubs with excellent food."
Ideally situated for Settle and Skipton, as well as for destinations such as Malham Cove, Malham Tarn, Bolton Abbey and Parceval Hall Gardens (all highly recommended), Cottage owner provides a cheery welcome and an excellent welcome pack. Would certainly stay here again and would recommend it.
-
"Excellent in every way."
Situated in an excellent location for trains , buses and restaurants without taking the car out. Lovely welcoming hamper. Super||
-
"Cottage was clean comfortable and had a genuine home from home feel."
It is well located in the heart of the Yorkshire Dale's close to Settle The welcome pack is outstanding and even the dog is looked after - the face to face greeting is a bonus. There are 2 pubs locally which both allow dogs and are welcoming. The cottage has any facilities you require and has a good stock of kitchen utensils it also has a brilliant stock of area guides including dog walks.
-
"Wonderful to have the owner meet us at the cottage."
Gave us a quick tour, explained the heating ( very important) and left us to it. A proper dog friendly cottage, lovely welcoming basket of goodies and fuel for the fire. The eggs had been laid that morning. We were so comfortable living there and even access to Netflix was a bonus. Well equipped kitchen and pet friendly enclosed garden. We used the washing machine, iron and ironing board. Sorry, a bit sad
-
"The cottage was cosy and so well equipped, whilst I read about the good welcome packs I was not expecting what was in them!"
For future reference for anyone going to stay, the human one contained bread, milk (four pints), one mini bottle each of white, rose and red wine, cakes, biscuits, ground coffee and eggs! The tea, coffee and sugar canisters were all filled up too. The canine one contained two bowls, poo bags, towel and a full jar of biscuits! Never stayed anywhere that was so generous! Was a nice warm cottage with wood burner too of which there was coal and wood to use. Good walks from the cottage which was great so at least Zak had a good one first thing so whatever we did for the rest of the day we knew he was ok should another not be forthcoming, this was only the case on one day. You need to be on the lookout for sheep though, the stone walls made good barriers but every now and then sheep would appear where they hadn't been the day before and you would realise there were no walls or water in between. Two good pubs minutes away, we ate in both, Maypole and Boars Head which we ate in twice, good food, generous portions. Plenty to do in the area, Ingleton Falls and Bolton Abbey we particularly enjoyed, Zak has never been so well walked! All in all a thoroughly enjoyable holiday and Storm Gareth did not interfere too much! Days planned around the weather and we found plenty to do. Would recommend this cottage and the area.
-
"The owner was lovely and made sure we had everything we could possibly need."
Lovely property which was well maintained and very clean.
-
"A fabulous little cottage, felt at home straight away, clean, comfy, best equipped rental I have stayed in."
Jacquie and Paul do a fantastic job, arrival hampers were a lovely touch for us and for our doggies and they had even put up a Christmas tree for our stay. Great range of tourist and walking guides supplied and a fully comprehensive guide to all things in the cottage. Will definately be back for a 2nd visit and I dare say more beyond that.
-
"Had a great week in Croft cottage lovely cottage in a nice area."
Dogs were made very welcome.clean accomodation. Been with Sykes cottages about 8 or 9 times now and have never been disappointed
-
"Croft Cottage was better than I expected."
It was like home from home. The owner Jacquie met us on arrival and showed us around. There were 2 hampers upon arrival. One for us containing essentials and one for our dog with treats and things. This I thought was very thoughtful. This is our second time we have used Sykes and would not hesitate to use again and have already recommended to family and friends.
-
"Everything was fantastic"
-
"A fantastic cottage in a great location for exploring the southern dales."
We were met with a warm welcome from the owner together with two generous welcome packs, one for us and one for our dogs. Cottage well equipped throughout and spotlessly clean and warm with a log burner in the lounge. Great location for exploring the dales. Two dog friendly pubs serving quality food within a few minutes walk from the cottage. We have already rebooked another stay in this cottage next year.
-
"The cottage was more than well equipped."
The welcome pack for us and our four legged friends was very nice. The location is great for exploring the dale's and there is a never ending stream of information provided. Visit the farm shop's on your travels, the quality of the food is delicious. It makes you realise how good this country is !! A fantastic time and well done Yorkshire.
-
"The cottage was above expectations absolutely home from home , spotlessly clean and everything you needed, couldn’t think of any negatives even our dog was settled from the moment we walked through the door."
-
"Our stay at Croft cottage was amazing."
The welcome packs for us and the dogs were very much appreciated by us all.The cottage is equipped with everything you will need to ensure your holiday goes swimmingly and is full of your creature comforts.The outdoor seating area and enclosed garden suited us perfectly and parking for two cars is more than enough.Jaqui welcomed us to her property and ran through everything to make our stay so pleasureable.Skipton and Settle are only a short drive away and our walk around the castles woods was fun for us all and any shopping needs were easily met at Morrisons just outside of Skipton.We would to come back and cant wait to see more of this beautiful countryside.
-
"The booking process was straightforward."
I had previously spoken to customer service, and the agents were very helpful. The vendor of the cottage called me in advance to go through some details, and she prepared a thoughtful welcome hamper - even adding special items for my pet cat to enjoy her stay too! Really happy with the holiday, and would recommend both the site and the cottage.
-
"Croft Cottage was lovely, clean well equipped, the welcome pack both for us and the dog was quite extensive."
Long Preston is a lovely Yorkshire village, with train access if you don't want to use the car. Two good pubs, The Boars Head in particular was very welcoming to us and our dog, and the food was excellent.
-
"A lovely well equipped and well located cottage."
Perfect for a relaxing walking holiday in the dales. Owners have provided lots of information on walks in the area and also most vitally a couple of thermos flasks! Cottage close to rail and bus links to Settle and Skipton (again timetables thoughtfully provided in cottage) and we managed well with no car for the week. Two lovely pubs nearby for after walk refreshments and evening meals that use local ingredients.
-
"The owners had clearly gone out of their way to make everything not just good but excellent."
The cottage was spotlessly clean, comfortable and very well equipped. . It was an ideal base to explore, Settle, Skipton, Malham and the Yorkshire Dales with lots of lovely walks all of differing lengths to suit everyone. We would definietly go there to stay again

About the location
LONG PRESTON
Settle 4 miles; Malham 4 miles; Skipton 12 miles.
Long Preston is an attractive Yorkshire Dales village in Ribblesdale, twelve miles from Skipton (popularly known as the 'Gateway to the Dales'), four miles from Settle. To the north, the landscape rises to the fells, moors and picturesque valleys of the Dales; to the south are the wetlands of the Ribble Valley which, in turn, sweep upward to the magnificent wilderness of Bowland. The village benefits from several large, tree lined, village greens, with footpaths leading direct to the surrounding hills, and it also boasts two excellent pubs with first rate cuisine. The railway station on the edge of the village provides access to the famous Settle-Carlisle Railway line which crosses some of the most beautiful and inspiring upland scenery in the country. Nearby Settle is a bustling market town with a weekly market, the centre being dominated by the Shambles, an historic 3-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.
