Escape the everyday with a trip to this exceptional rural hideaway, perfectly positioned between the Forest of Bowland and the Yorkshire Dales. An ideal retreat for couples or a small family, this pet-friendly lodge offers an indulgent experience with its private sauna, hot tub, and BBQ area, promising pure relaxation amidst beautiful scenery. With wonderful walks right from the doorstep, it’s a haven for those looking to explore the great outdoors with their four-legged friends before returning to unwind in style.

Step inside and discover a remarkable open-plan living space where quality and style converge. Bi-fold doors run along one side, filling the room with natural light and framing far-reaching views of the surrounding countryside. This social hub features a state-of-the-art kitchen for preparing culinary feasts, an elegant dining suite for sharing meals, and a comfortable lounge area for relaxing. A corridor leads to two blissful bedrooms: a master with a king-size bed and an en-suite bathroom, and a second versatile room with a super-king-size bed that can be arranged as twins on request. A separate shower room ensures convenience for all. Outside, the wraparound decking provides the perfect spot to soak up the tranquil atmosphere, and there’s off-road parking for two cars.

The lodge’s setting is the perfect gateway to Upper Ribblesdale and the wider Yorkshire Dales. The ancient market town of Settle is just 3 miles away, offering a selection of independent shops, friendly inns, and a lively Tuesday market. From here, you can enjoy a pleasant riverside walk or embark on the famous Settle-Carlisle Railway journey. For more challenging hikes, the Yorkshire Three Peaks of Pen-y-ghent, Whernside, and Ingleborough are within easy reach. Alternatively, venture 23 miles west through the Forest of Bowland National Landscape to explore the heritage city of Lancaster and the sandy shores of Morecambe Bay.

We highly recommend this beautifully appointed cottage for romantic/ couples/family/ walkers and wildlife watchers. This cottage had it all, everything was thought out for maximum comfort. The veiws from the hot tub gave us so much pleasure. We saw hares, deer, buzzards, herons and voles. Would absolutely come back and infact we felt sad to leave.

This Lodge is advertised as Deluxe and it is in a stunning location ...they owners have done a fantastic job with the interior decorations, fabulous hot tub and really comfortable beds... However the standard of hygiene was very poor... Underfloor heating not working properly and towel rails not working at all when we arrive...the bedrooms, bathroRead moreoms and towel rails cold...Only the hall and lounge was warm...Had to contact the owner as couldn't get it to work... Disturbed sleep due to Pump in hallway running all night...One bedroom totally nit cleaned or bedding changed,dog hairs in the bed and in kitchen cupboards,draws and rugs... Kitchen bins was dirty and dried food in it along with kitchen splashbacks and Dinning room table.. Our week was spoilt by the above and although Leah did come promptly to resolve the problems and change the bedding.... it's not what you want to gave to do on holiday....Such a shame as it could have been truly wonderful...A fabulous site and area .... I would not recommend at the moment as I feel they need to resolve details to truly be Deluxe as advertised.. Hide
