The View Horton in Ribblesdale

The View is in Horton in Ribblesdale. It's a mid terrace cottage. The main thing is the view, hence the name. You look straight out at Pen-y-Ghent from the front.

It sleeps four in two bedrooms. One double, one twin, and one bathroom. It's got a 4 Star rating. It's comfortable and has everything you'd need. There's a wood burning stove in the front room, which is nice in the evening.

You've got two gardens really. A little front courtyard to sit with a coffee and look at the hill. Then an enclosed back garden with a table and chairs. It's good for an evening drink or if you've got a dog.

The village is all about walking. The Pen-y-Ghent Café is the official start for the Three Peaks challenge. The Pennine Way and the Settle to Carlisle railway both go through here. There are two pubs in the village, both about 200 yards away. They're used to walkers and dogs.

For bigger shops, you'd need to drive to Settle or Skipton. Skipton has the castle and a good market. Ingleton and its waterfalls are about a fifteen minute drive. The whole area is good for walking and climbing.

It's got WiFi, a washing machine, and a dishwasher. Bedding and towels are included. There's a cot and a highchair if you need them. One well-behaved dog is allowed.
