Retreat to pure tranquillity with a stay in this stunning stone cottage in Settle in the Yorkshire Dales. Lace up your walking boots and enjoy your splendid surroundings before returning home to this beautifully renovated barn with your family of four and two happy hounds.

A fabulous juxtaposition of old and new, this striking cottage provides visitors with cosy spaces and modern design with cool tones. The lounge features exposed stone, an accent fireplace and furniture that beckons guests to sink in at the end of long walks in the country. Discover all the equipment you could need in the cooly-toned kitchen while the nearby dining table suits family-focused mealtimes and card games. The charm continues outside, where you'll find a courtyard perfect for evening tipples, and a hot tub, which will be sure to lure in guests. Upstairs, exposed wooden beams help to create a relaxing ambience in the two super-king-size zip-and-link bedrooms, while the two en-suites offer privacy for guests.

Nestled in the Yorkshire Dales National Park and on the fridge of Bowland, this is a fabulous spot for keen walkers and avid hikers to explore the hidden gems of Yorkshire. Pick up the myriad of walking routes in Malham (9 miles), which is also the gateway to the Pennine Way. Film buffs mustn't miss the striking scenery of Malham Cove, which was featured in the magical blockbuster franchise Harry Potter. Recharge with a piping hot brew and slices of Yorkshire parkin in the historic market town of Skipton (17 miles). Here, you can pick up tasty goodies to take home for tea or peruse a vast array of unique independent shops.

Just back from a great week at Chance's Well. Couldn't fault the place at all. My daughter's particularly enjoyed the hot tub. We went on trips to a lot of nearby towns and attractions and at the end of the day it was always nice to go back to such a welcoming house. Would highly recommend a stay here.

Absolutely amazing property in beautiful, tranquil surroundings. The interior is of superior quality & well designed & styled throughout. Comfy beds & great nights sleep in a quiet location with minimal traffic. The welcome pack was a lovely thought & enhanced our time in Chance's Well. The sympathetic restoration of the well itself & other aspectsRead more of the building are fascinating & certainly worth a visit as its so quirky. The view from the hot tub is breathtaking. We will be back! Hide

The cottage was done to a very high standard and is an ideal base for walking or relaxing. However, it was not as well equipped as other properties we have stayed at. It's the attention to detail that makes the difference between a good holiday and a great one.

Beautiful cottage, in a beautiful spot. Cottage has been done to a very high spec, and has everything you could need inside. Only one issue was that the rear of the property was not enclosed as the gate kept blowing open, so dog had to be tied up when outside. Otherwise a great place to stay
