The Property: About Gilchrist Riverside House
This stone-built cottage is situated in the Yorkshire Dales and overlooks the River Ribble. Just a short stroll from the town of Settle, the cottage sleeps up to 7 guests in 3 beautifully designed bedrooms. With two double rooms and a twin, this is the perfect place to take your family on a holiday to the countryside, with the added benefit of staying right by the river.You and your family are sure not to feel chilly on winter evenings, as the cottage has a warm open fire in both the sitting room and the dining room. Cook up some delicious meals in the well-equipped kitchen and then either eat on the dining room or, during the summer months, enjoy your food al fresco on the wooden furniture outside. The three bedrooms (one super king-size bedroom, one king-size bedroom and one double) enjoy wonderful views of the surrounding countryside and of Pen-y-ghent, a fell in the Yorkshire Dales. On the ground floor, there is a games room complete with pool table and darts board that will keep everyone entertained on rainy days.
When the weather is more pleasant, the place to be is outside. There are a number of peaceful, relaxing riverside walks located just outside of the cottage and the nearby town of Settle is packed full of fantastic pubs and eateries. If you fancy a challenge, then head down to the famous Three Peaks and enjoy the stunning views you will get from the top of the mountains. With the cute town of Skipton and the picturesque Yorkshire Dales National Park also just a drive away, you will not be short of beautiful sights when staying in this gorgeous property.
Please note that the king-size and super king-size bedrooms can be made up as twin bedrooms if requested in advance.
