Dating back to the 1700s, this cosy cottage is full of charm and character, offering comfortable and homely accommodation in the heart of the Dales. On the ground floor, there is a welcoming living room with a flagged stone floor, exposed stone work, window seat, and a fireplace with a cosy, open fire. A beautiful hand-made kitchen, separate utility area and shower room complete the downstairs accommodation. On the first floor are two comfortable bedrooms, both with wooden floors and ornamental fireplaces. There is also a good sized family bathroom with wooden floor and beams. Outside to the front of the property is a pretty cottage garden with a patio area, and to the rear is a seating area (accessed via four steps) which backs on to the open countryside that surrounds the village.
The cottage occupies a great position within the popular village of Austwick which has a local shop/post office and pub which serves food as well as a tennis court and children’s play area. There is also an award-winning restaurant within a mile. A wider range of amenities can be found in the bustling market town of Settle, 5 miles away, including some great pubs, shops and supermarkets. The popular village of Ingleton, which is just 7 miles away, is well known for its caves and waterfalls and also has an open air swimming pool.
A perfect base for those who love the great outdoors, there is an abundance of walks to suit every ability, quite literally from the doorstep. For those who like to be challenged why not try Yorkshire’s famous Three Peaks? Cycling is another popular activity in these parts and for guests wanting to bring their own bicycles there is bike storage on site. The village itself is on a National Cycle Route and there are plenty of other great cycling opportunities in the area including great mountain biking at Gisburn Forest, 12 miles away. Other activities available locally include golf, caving and potholing. Being close to the border of Cumbria, Spoutscroft Cottage is also very well located for exploring the Lake District.

Harrogate, Haworth/Bronte Country and Blackpool are just over an hour’s drive. For those wanting to visit the coast, Morecambe Bay can be reached in 45 minutes and Blackpool is just over an hour’s drive. Should you wish to leave the car behind, there are regular buses from the village into Settle, Lancaster and Kirkby Lonsdale. Alternatively why not take a ride on the Settle-Carlisle railway. Shop 400 yards, pub ½ mile and restaurant 1 mile.

A lovely holiday cottage in a perfect location.
A lovely holiday cottage in a perfect location. If you enjoy walking then there is little need to drive anywhere, with an abundance of walks directly from the door. The village has a local shop selling essentials and an excellent pub (although booking is recommended). We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Very nice cottage in a quiet but lovely location shame the local pub was closed for most of our week away.This cottage is very good for some lovely walks from your doorstep hope to return.
We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay in Austwick. The cottage was clean and surprisingly spacious for 2 people. Well stocked kitchen and utility. We loved the large bath. Close to local amenities and local landmarks.

This cottage went above and beyond our expectations, so many little details made this cottage feel like a home and not just a holiday let.Plenty of kitchen equipment and cleaning products, the torches by the door (not that we used them) and the rucksack along with the milk biscuits and wine (which we did use) all made it perfect.

A lovely well equipped cottage in the ideal location. Nice little touches like dog treats and tea and coffee. We were surprised to find a third bedroom that wasn't advertised! We were there during the heatwave week and the cottage was cool to come back to. I couldn't think of a better place to stay in. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.
