  • "Lovely cottage in the centre of a beautiful small village surrounded by spectacular scenery."

    The cottage has everything you need and more - great showers - very comfortable beds with nice linen - fully enclosed and private garden that the dogs thoroughly enjoyed - generous welcome basket - discreet owner who’s there if you need help with anything but just leaves you alone to enjoy your holiday which is something that we appreciated - we’ll be back

  • "This was a spacious, cosy cottage, which was spotlessly clean and well equipped."

    Plenty of storage space in the kitchen, comfortable beds, good showers and warm when you wanted it to be. And parking at the door. The area is excellent for walking, and both Settle and Kirkby Lonsdale are nice market towns to visit.

    Everything we needed and more, owners really helpful and great welcome pack. Secure back garden for our two Terriers, which is very important for us, we would certainly like to go back again. Thank you Christian.

  • "Fantastic stay!"

    I always worry about the beds being uncomfortable but they were lovely. The cottage had everything we needed. The welcome pack was amazing!!! The parking right outside was great! From the moment we stepped inside we knew it was going to be a great stay. Then the garden is another worry with my fur babies but they loved it and put me at ease. Would definitely recommend to friends and family and we will be back.

  • "A pleasant stay, but the cottage would benefit from a bit of maintenance, such as fixing/replacing the broken dishwasher (a faulty dispenser prevented it working, except for the pre-wash cycle)."

    The dining chairs need replacing, as the seats have dropped, so we had to sit on cushions. A couple of easy chairs in the lounge area would be very useful, especially with four guests.

    It is very well equipped,clean and dog friendly with hard floors on the whole ground floor and a brilliant enclosed garden. It’s in a quiet village surrounded by stunning countryside with walks from the door. It was an excellent base for touring around the area. Christian , the owner, is next door if you need him but not intrusive. We were pretty lucky with the weather , mostly dry! We really enjoyed our week here and would definitely recommend. Thank you for the lovely welcome pack !

    A safe and private garden with decking area and table chairs which is great for our retriever (and us when the sun came out!) There was a warm welcome from the owner next door and a lovely welcome basket. One of our favourite holiday lets out of many.

  • "Comfortable cottage with good facilities and very dog friendly."

    Location was great for us as rural which we like. Garden was secure for our two Border Collies and walks available straight from the front door. Kitchen could do with some maintenance as a bit tired but would still happily recommend as a great place to stay with access to the Dales on your doorstep. Wheatsheaf in Ingleton and Game Cock in Austwick offer great food and are dog friendly. As always would recommend owners consider an EV charger but luckily there are fast chargers at Booths in Kirkby Lonsdale.

    Very clean, comfortable and spacious. We stayed in February and the cottage was always very cosy and warm. The kitchen was well equipped and the downstairs shower/toilet was a bonus. Nice little rear garden for our border collie to use. The cottage itself is in a very peaceful hamlet, but there are some beautiful places to visit in Lancashire and the Yorkshire Dale's, which are just a car ride away. A cottage we would definitely return too. All in all

    Loved it as much as our visit last year although with a different pooch. The weather was challenging but it didn’t stop us going for long walks. Visited the kilns at Craven Lime Works, Langcliffe, an exceptionally wet walk round Ribblehead Viaduct, another wet walk at Windermere, a very windy walk up by Gaping Gill. We had a great time

    No list of dos and donts. No ornaments to hide to keep safe. No superfluous cushions and pillows on the beds to find space for. This is the warmest cottage we have been in for a winter holiday and we found it very relaxing. As we had snow and icy conditions we couldn't walk far but the garden and large village green enabled our little dog to get enough exercise. Would recommend both cottage and location.

    The village is located just off the main road in a lovely quiet countryside setting. The cottage is light and airy with plenty of space and well equipped. We had a lovely welcome pack and Christmas card from the property owners. You’d never know they live next door but available if we needed any help. The enclosed back garden is lovely’ especially with our spaniel, and there’s off road parking in front of the cottage. The downstairs shower/toilet and utility room is very useful.

    Great location for local walks without having to travel far. The lounge area and sofa were really comfortable and great for relaxing in the evening with a good sized TV. The enclosed garden was great for the dog, unfortunately we didn’t get to sit out much due to the weather. Bed was also very comfortable so had a good nights sleep. Good powerful shower over bath. Only thing we would suggest would be to have more than one saucepan (could only see one large one) and to get a new wok. It had seen better days and we do do a bit of cooking when we go away. Overall though I would definitely recommend this as a place to stay.

    The kitchen had everything we needed, including a good sized fridge freezer, plus a bottle fridge (plug in the cupboard next to it to turn on). Lovely welcome pack with delightful goodies, plus tea/coffee and milk for arrival. Thank you Christian. The tv is excellent for shorter autumn and winter days and the downstairs bathroom and utility room were very useful. Upstairs, the bedrooms are plenty large enough with sufficient clothes storage and the bathroom had one of the most powerful showers I believe you will find anywhere. The location is in a small quiet village just off the main A 65 which means you can access Ribblesdale (incl viaducts) or you can pop over the tops to Hawes and also into Dentdale. Ingleton and Settle are down the road in differing directions and you can also travel southwards and walk in the northern parts of the Forest of Bowland. Malham isn't too far away either. It's a quiet place to stay with access to a lot of great countryside. The New Inn at Clapham is enjoying a bit of a renaissance which was nice to find and the small Italian in Ingleton is highly recommended - but booking is essential. This was our second stay at Croft Cottage and we don't intend it to be our last.

    Light airy and equipped with all we needed. It felt new and high quality. Bedding was comfy and smelled so fresh. The house had plug ins but this wasn’t to mask it was a hint of fragrance. Open plan downstairs was nice with glass doors onto a spacious decking area with steps on to the lawn. Driveway to fit 2 cars side by side. Lighting was a nice touch with dimmable lighting with zoned controlled areas. Velux windows throughout allowing light. Bath was lovely and big with shower over ( separate walk in shower cubicle downstairs) Water pressure good, internet speeds amazing, Netflix, prime available. Across from the property is the village green. A great place to exercise your dog and where you are Lilkely to meet some of the super friendly village locals. Owner of property lives next door so are close if you need anything but do not bother you. We travelled with 2 adults 6 yr, 3 yr old and dog. Garden is secure for the dog. 2 bedrooms with bedroom furniture, hangers, towels, hair dryer. Spare bedding and blankets in the wardrobe if needed. No pub or shop in the village. Nearest is Clapham or Ingleton so would need to drive out however a short walk To a cafe in the village who allow dogs. Some takeaways will deliver to the property and menus are within the property with a welcome pack and many other information leaflets.

I would suggest adding another comfortable chair or small sofa in the living space (there’s plenty of room), this is not intended as a negative as the sofa is a nice size already, it would just give more space to ‘lounge out ‘on an evening if you’re a family with teenagers.

  • "We loved our holiday at croft cottage!"

    Immaculately clean and tidy, everything we needed and lots of lovely blankets and treats for our dog if we needed them (we bought our own) The drive is spacious allowing 2 cars and a safe enclosed garden for the dog. The shower upstairs and bath are wonderful! As well as a convenient shower and loo downstairs! The TV even has netflix for those that want it ☺ Newby is a wonderful peaceful, friendly place to be situated and its ideally located for all the large attractions like the Ingleton waterfall walk, Aysgarth falls, Ingleborough walks and cave etc. We highly recommend ingleton pottery as well as driving the hour to Aysgarth and pop into the white Rose candle makers near by as there's nothing like this anymore. The cottage is fantastic and we would love to return. Xx

    The accommodation exceeded our expectation; it was clean, extremely well looked after and very well resourced. The kitchen was very well stocked making evening cooking a breeze. The garden was very secure for our dogs and once again well looked after providing a lovely area for sitting in an evening. The welcome hamper was a lovely extra enabling us to have a cup of tea on arrival. The location was perfect, we ate out a few times at some lovely pubs and the area was so peaceful and beautiful it provided the perfect tranquil break that our family needed. I cannot recommend enough and will definitely be looking to book in the future.

The property

Found in a little hamlet called Newby, around a 15-minute walk from the village of Clapham in North Yorkshire, Croft Cottage is a semi-detached annexe stone cottage surrounded by beautiful countryside.

The hamlet of Newby lies on the southern slopes of Ingleborough, the most famous of the Three Peaks of the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

For the more serious hikers there is direct access onto Ingleborough from the cottage avoiding the need to travel before you start your 3 peaks adventure.

Suited for a small family looking to have some adventures outdoors, or a group of friends looking to complete the Three Peaks Challenge, this property will impress with its high-quality furnishings and large open layout inside, as well as the fantastic outdoor space.

Enter into the vast kitchen, the first section of the open-plan living space, and have fun cooking up tasty meals taking advantage of all the excellent appliances available to you, especially the wine cooler!

Sit around the dining table together and enjoy some delicious food, and afterwards head out onto the decking to indulge in an after-dinner drink on a warm summer evening.

If the day has tired you out completely, then sink into the sumptuous corner sofa and get your favourite shows on the Smart TV.

All that fresh Yorkshire air will make anyone sleepy, so when it's time to head upstairs you can choose from two lovely rooms; a king-size and a twin, both benefiting from Velux windows with some storage for your personal belongings.

Across the hall is the family bathroom where you can soak in the large bath or get a quick shower, whatever the occasion calls for, and if someone is taking too long then just hop in the ground-floor shower room.

Not only is there a decked area with seating at the back of the property, but an enclosed lawned area perfect for letting your four-legged best friend have a run around!

The nearest pubs and shops are a short walk into the pretty village of Clapham, so when no one feels like cooking in the evening you can head over to one of the excellent pubs for some classic tasty pub grub!

The Yorkshire Dales National Park is on your doorstep so it would be wrong not to do a bit of exploring, as well as the Forest of Bowland AONB to the south as well as the Lake District National Park, there are fantastic opportunities for walking, cycling and other various outdoor activities for any age or level.

Croft Cottage will be your Yorkshire countryside hideaway, where you can feel the benefit of the fresh air and home-from-home accommodation.

About the location

CLAPHAM

Ingleton 4 miles; Settle 6 miles.

The picturesque Dales village of Clapham is situated in the heart of the famous "Three Peaks" country. Surrounded by spectacular limestone, the Nature Trail at Clapham passes by a lake and mature woodland before reaching Ingleborough Show Cave - spectacular whatever the weather! Follow the footpath further and wonder at the magnificent Trow Gill, before continuing past Gaping Gill (Britain’s largest discovered pothole) on the way to the summit of Ingleborough. The nearby White Scar Caves are also well worth a visit and there is a superb four-mile waterfall walk in the village of Ingleton. Clapham offers a village shop, a vintage gift shop and a bespoke wool and handicraft shop, as well as a pub, a bar and cafes. The village is an ideal base for walking, climbing or potholing and horse/pony trekking, as there are numerous bridle paths in the area. An excellent centre for touring the Yorkshire Dales and the Forest of Bowland, with easy access to both the Lake District and the west coast.
