Fawber Cottage, Fawber Cottage, New Houses, Horton in Ribblesdale, North Yorkshire, BD24 0JE

A quiet retreat in a good place to make as many walks as you want to.

A nice garden, to sit, sip tea, read a bood, enjoy the views.

Morning sun ... always great when the others are still asleep.

Spaceful bedrooms, spaceful living room, and spacious kitchen. Tumble dryer in barn (which is handy when it's raining and you still want to dry your clothes quickly). Second fridge, but first one is good enough. Woodburner, Comfortable house, felt 'good'. It's old/traditional.

One can walk into Horton in Ribblesdale easily (café, pub, hotel).

Starter pack with tea, coffee, oil, herbs/spices. Good selection of pots and pans. Good working oven/cooker.

What could be better?

Well, when there are six people staying it's a bit of a puzzle to work with onely one bathroom (toilet and shower over bath in one space).

Gras was a bit high and hidden was dog/cat poo :(

Please - an anti-slip in the bath, just a tip ...

And there's no internet/wifi. OTOH - it does quiet your vacation :) And easy acces to Internet via either Settle or Hawes library (free)

Good trips to be made to top of Three Peaks, Lancaster, Hawes, Skipton, Settle (check Tripadvisor for more tips).

My friends and I decided to rent a cottage together for a girly weekend away, and the first thing that attracted us to Fawber Cottage was the price!

Given that between 6 of us, the price didn’t amount to much per person, we weren’t expecting much, but as soon as we walked in, we were pleasantly surprised.

Very clean and tidy. The kitchen is very homely and has every amenity required that you would expect from your own kitchen.

The living room is very quirky with a mix match of furniture, but very comfortable which was made even more homely with the wood

I travelled to Fawber cottage with a group of friends to enjoy the rural idyllic of the Dales for bank holiday weekend. The cottage is in a lovely location- well off the main road and nestled just under the mountain but within walking distance of a pub and small shop. Unfortunately when we came to pick the keys up, we were given the wrong key code to get into the safe and the wrong location of the safe but having no mobile signal, we could not call to clarify. Luckily, the local pub allowed us to use their phone and Avril (the owner) gave us the correct k

My group of 5 stayed here for 3 nights in November 20102. The house is OK for 5 but an extra loo would have handy at times. The kitchen and dining area is excellent, comfortable lounge. Bedrooms good with comfortable beds. The only gripe would be parking, there is enough room for 2 cars but being on a track it was extremely muddy and passing gear from person to person so not as to get mud into the cottage was the order of the day. We had 2 good walks, 3 if you count a walk to the pub one evening.
