Nestled on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales and the Forest of Bowland National Landscape, this outstanding lodge is a wonderful retreat for families or friends looking to unwind in nature. With breathtaking views and walking trails nearby, every day promises a new adventure. A 5.5-mile drive away, the charming market town of Settle is a delight to explore, with independent shops, tempting cafes, and the famous Settle to Carlisle Railway – one of the most scenic train journeys in the UK. Nearby, Ingleton (7 miles) is home to the spectacular Ingleton Waterfalls Trail and the awe-inspiring White Scar Cave, the longest show cave in Britain. For those who love a challenge, the Yorkshire Three Peaks – Pen-y-Ghent, Whernside, and Ingleborough – offer some of the best hiking in the country, rewarding climbers with far-reaching panoramic views.

Enter this sleek, black, wooden-clad lodge into a welcoming hallway – perfect for kicking off muddy boots and drying paws after a day of adventure. From here, you’ll be drawn into the showstopping open-plan lounge, kitchen, and dining area, where floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors frame the spectacular countryside views. Relax in the cosy lounge, complete with plush seating and a Smart TV, or gather around the dining table for memorable meals. The stylish kitchen, featuring a breakfast bar, is fully equipped for rustling up delicious feasts. Both bedrooms are designed with comfort in mind, finished to a high standard with luxurious linens and direct access to the garden. Choose between the king-size bedroom with a zip-and-link bed that can become 2'6" single beds and an en-suite bathroom or the super-king bedroom. A sleek family shower room with a spacious walk-in shower rounds off the accommodation.

Outside, the private wrap-around decking is made for al fresco living, with comfortable seating, a BBQ area, and a dining space. Indulge yourself with a sunken hot tub, a sauna, and an outdoor shower – all yours to enjoy in privacy. With off-road parking for two cars and additional on-site parking, this countryside home awaits those seeking a special getaway.
