The attractive village of Ingleton is nestled beneath Ingleborough, one of the famous 'Three Peaks' on the western edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Offering a wide range of shops, pubs and places to eat, the winding streets of this pretty village all converge on a central market place. A mile outside of Ingleton and down the Hawes road are the well known White Scar Caves. Open to the public, these caves display a huge number of caverns full of stalactites and stalagmites, with one cave home to a huge underground lake. The superb 'Falls Walk' offers an interesting circuit which takes in some of the impressive cascading waterfalls of the area whilst the proximity to both the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake distract make this an excellent place for walkers.
Reviews
"This cottage was booked as a Christmas present from our twins & we combined it with their birthday celebration. Old, creaky & quirky well presented cottage that served to 9 of us well. Annex did have a problem with the boiler but a phone call to the owner it was sorted it quickly. Kitchen does need some up dating as cupboard doors hanging down & oven temperamental, however it was well stocked with utensils. Really handy having the Coop next door. Great bathroom, showers & wood burner, very cosy after wet walking! Wifi worked well for us all. Only real problem was the parking to empty & pack your cars as double yellow lines outside on a one way system, however parked on The Three Horseshoes car park and put a donation in the box. Ingleton is a village pretty, with plenty of cafes, pubs & Indian restaurants and the Falls are just down the road & there are lots of good walks from the cottage."
"This was a perfect cottage for our annual family get together, there was 8 of us including two children and two dogs. The additional annexe made this property spacious yet really warm and cosy. The location is fantastic and everything is within walking distance. The Three Horseshoes next door was ideal pub in which to watch the rugby. My best part was climbing Ingleton Falls as it is beautiful yet incredibly close. Thanks Claire for being so helpful and friendly."
"One of the best cottages we have rented in recent years, perfectly located in the centre of Ingleton overlooking the church. Stayed with friends and both bedrooms in the main cottage were beautifully presented and the bathroom can only be described as stunning. The modern central heating and boiler system made the cottage cosy and warm with the added bonus of a real log fire for us traditional types. The annexe makes this perfect for a family break while a fully enclosed courtyard was ideal for our pet dog. The owners Richard and Claire answered all our questions before arrival and it is clear that this cottage is very much a labour of love. Would highly recommend for both a winter and summer break."
"2 couples and 3 dogs ! We spent a very happy week here at beginning of July. Plenty of space and well equipped. Lovely bathrooms. Really appreciated the outside laundry room as we are walkers who can get rather muddy at times. Rear courtyard nice and private, ideal for bbq's, would be even better with a hot tub !!! We also struggled with the small temperamental cooker as did a previous reviewer but managed. Ideally situated for walking in the dales and Ingleton is a beautiful village as are all surrounding areas."
"loved the house and the location,the only down sides was the oven and the lighting in the kitchen ,the oven is tiny and it takes twice as long to cook anything,as the house and annex sleeps up to 9 you couldn't cook a family meal it was more like a small caravan oven ,and the lighting is very poor in the kitchen we bought a new bulb for one of the lights but it didn't work .lovely big court yard and the house has everything you need in it but it would also benefit from a large freezer. i would have given 5 stars but for the oven"
