The lane running past the front of the house leads onto the main footpath to Pen-y-Ghent and for those relishing a challenge there is the famous Three Peaks Challenge, not for the faint hearted. For those less inclined towards the great outdoors, there are many sightseeing activities in the area - visit the Hoffman Kiln at Langcliffe, the famous Viaduct on the Settle-Carlisle railway recently used as the setting for the BBC series Jericho. The market towns of Settle and Skipton are close at hand and Kirkby Lonsdale and Hawes are well worth a visit and then finish the day with a short stroll to the heart of the village - the local pub.

Reviews

We've just spent Christmas week in this fabulous cottage. The property is tastefully furnished to a high standard and very comfortable. It's warm and cosy, especially if you light the log fire! The kitchen is well equipped, and had everything we needed to cook a full Christmas lunch. It was lovely to arrive and find the Christmas tree up in the living room, and a complimentary bottle of wine in the kitchen (the latter was much appreciated!) The cottage is in a fantastic location in this quiet village and ideal as a base if you enjoy the open countryside and walking. I would, however, suggest you bring a torch if staying during the winter, as there is minimal street lighting in the village. It's a very dark walk down to the pub without one!

Horton Scar House provided my family and I with a wonderful holiday. Ideally located to enjoy the surrounding countryside and nearby towns and villages, we had a glorious week exploring the Yorkshire Dales. The house itself was most comfortable and well equipped with everything we could need - as much as enjoyed walking through the Dales, the house quickly became a home from home which we looked forward to returning to each evening. Horton Scar House has much to recommend it - we look forward to returning soon!

Horton Scar House is a fantastic cottage with an excellent location for walking the hills and mountains in the area. It was like having your own home but in a beautiful spot. We would 100% recommend this cottage.

Rated by Mr Doorleyers reviewed on 2nd July 2016

The cottage and where it is situated have the wow factor. Inside, the cottage was spotless and had a lovely feel to it throughout. There were lots of nice little touches to make you feel at home. The owners are really nice and very helpful with loads of details before your holiday to make the stay everything it should be. There were great walks from the door and in the village, we would definitely recommend and hope to return in the future.

The property is in an excellent position where you don't have to travel too far for some fabulous walks. The house itself felt comfortable as soon as you walked in, which made a relaxing holiday. A week wasn't long enough for us, so we will be returning!

Rated by Mrs Thomas reviewed on 25th May 2016

A beautiful cottage in a lovely peaceful area with breathtaking views from every window. A real home from home with everything you need and more. The area is a paradise for hill walkers. The wifi is excellent and the log fire is so warm and cosy. We had a lovely break and could of stayed a lot longer. We would highly recommend this cottage and we will definitely be returning soon.
