About this property

Dawson Cottage is a well-presented, detached property situated in the rural village of Low Bentham, not far from the famous Three Peaks of Whernside, Ingleborough and Pen-y-Ghent. Boasting plenty of character and charm, this inviting abode offers a lovely escape for you and your family. After a day of rambling the Yorkshire Moors, spend your down time in the open-plan living area, where you will be delighted by the real home from home ambiance, including two sofas and a wall-mounted TV for entertainment. Move into the kitchen, a compact but amply-appointed space where the allocated chef can impress with a delicious feast, while the rest of the group set the dining table with crockery and a bottle of fizz. Upstairs there are three bedrooms to choose from, including the master king with en-suite shower, a standard double and a twin. Take time to enjoy a rejuvenating bath in the contemporary bathroom or use the en-suite shower to prepare for the day, both featuring modern fixtures and fittings including a heated towel rail. Externally there is an enclosed courtyard welcoming evening drinks as you catch the last of sun. If you fancy a night away from the kitchen, head to the local pub, or into the town of High Bentham where you can choose from a selection of takeaways and pubs serving food. Get to know the surrounding area and venture into the Yorkshire Dales, filled with valleys full of hay meadows, drystone walls and pretty towns and villages. Explore the natural attractions of Malham Cove, Aysgarth Falls, Ingleton Waterfalls and the famous Yorkshire Three Peaks (Ingleborough, Pen-y-ghent and Whernside) as you explore miles of paths upon this National Park. The rugged landscapes of the Forest of Bowland is also easily accessible, making Dawson Cottage a real gem for outdoor enthusiasts. For a change of scenery, head to the coastline where you can have beach days at Morcecambe or wander the coastal areas of Silverdale and Arnside or enjoy retail therapy in the city of Lancaster. For a Yorkshire escape you won’t forgot, choose Dawson Cottage.

High Bentham, a small Yorkshire market town, ideally located for exploring the Yorkshire Dales National Park to the north and east, as well as the Forest of Bowland, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to the south. The Bowland fells, as well as the surrounding three peaks of Ingleborough, Whernside, and Pen-y-Ghent, provide great walking terrain, while the Lake District and Morecambe Bay's stunning coastal beauty are only half an hour distant. High Bentham is a bustling little town with a monthly cattle market, nice local shops and services, and a decent selection of pubs that serve meals, while the 18-hole golf course is widely recognised for its spectacular views.

  • Carole

    Well equipped and very good quality, including the bedding. Only negative comment is that the sofas are very low and could be a problem for anyone with mobility issues. Also no visitor book. It would be nice to leave information about places visitors have found interesting or good places to eat (would definitely recommend Bridge House Farm Tearooms Wray. Lovely food and dog friendly).

  • Glyn

    Very clean throughout. Nice touch with the welcome basket of ground coffee, biscuits and prosecco in addition to the milk in the fridge. There definitely needs to be a blind in the ensuite bathroom window, with the light on you feel on full show for every passing vehicle and pedestrian as well as all the neighboring properties, definite negative for me. The person in the other double bedroom has remarked how they could feel the framework through the mattress. The last two points are suggestions to make a very good establishment into an excellent one. The whole party enjoyed their stay there and the countryside that surrounds it.

  • Kerry

    Bonus as its pet friendly. Perfect location for exploring the area. Very clean, beds are comfy. The owner is very friendly.
