High above the traditional Yorkshire market town of Bentham, the tiny hamlet of Tatham sits on the edge of Burnmoor overlooking The Great Stone of Fourstones - an Ice Age relic which marks the boundary between Lancashire and Yorkshire. This ancient monument has become a distinctive feature of the landscape boasting spectacular views over the Lake District, the Yorkshire Dales National Park and the Forest of Bowland - a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Excellent walking and cycling routes cross all three of these stunning areas, whilst nearby Bentham boasts a range of amenities and a good variety of shops, pubs and restaurants. The market towns of Settle, Kirkby Lonsdale, Skipton and Kendal are all within easy driving and are well worth visiting making this an exceptional destination no matter what time of year.
From heather-clad moors and limestone scars, to market towns and the steady pace of country life - the sublime Dales await you! Where else in Britain is it as satisfying to sit and do nothing as it is to explore the numerous pursuits on offer?
The property was beautifully decorated and had everything you would require.
Cosy, clean and well presented cottage. Friendly and helpful owner adding a few complimentary extras.
The owner made us very welcome. The best thing about the cottage is the fantastic setting, we spent hours outside watching the wildlife, and listening to the curlews, and I even took up my paints again for the first time in years.
We enjoyed our stay very much and hope to return.
We liked the location and the views. The extremely helpful owners were warm and welcoming on arrival.

A lovely cottage with picturesque surroundings.
This cottage was delightful with wonderful views. It was very tastefully furnished and we were given a warm welcome by the owner. There are local maps of the area for your use and plenty of reading matter, plus binoculars for you to watch the wildlife on the lake. We certainly hope to return and would have no hesitation in recommending it.
This was a jewel of a cottage. It was beautifully furnished and in such a lovely location. The owners are lovely people and made the holiday even better.
The location was very quiet and tranquil with lovely views over the Dales. Quality furnishings and finishing touches to the property made it feel very welcoming.
We adored our time in Ashbank Cottage. We took lovely walks and enjoyed the stunning countryside views. Our favourite part was the personal aspect of staying in a cottage and meeting the owner, rather than staying in a large impersonal hotel. There was a lovely collection of books and DVDs and we felt connected to all who had stayed there before.
The place was very welcoming and well laid out. Very peaceful and good walking country.
We have stayed in many self catering properties and this is without doubt the best equipped, smartest and cleanest property we have ever rented and excellent value for money. There is the added bonus of it being situated in a beautiful area.
The cottage is lovely and warm and is in a beautiful, tranquil setting, the perfect place to rest, relax and enjoy the breathtaking scenery.
Beautiful views of the hills around. Having a wood burner kept us cosy on evenings. So easy to get to both the Dales and the Lake District, we were spoilt for choice on where to go.
Loved the wood burning stove and the views over the dales. Very peaceful location and a perfect location to unwind and recharge. Lovely location to explore and close to some lovely hills.
A cottage that was comfortable, clean, well quipped with pleasing décor throughout and the view was good from the French windows. Our visit was to be a peaceful, relaxing, 'away from it all' long weekend and all elements of our stay in this lovely cottage ensured that.
Having rented a lot of cottages in the past, we think this was the best we have ever had the pleasure of staying in. The scenery is awesome, the welcome was wonderful, the general area was to our liking, quiet & restful. We would recommend this cottage to everyone. A Great place to stay.
The view from the window was amazing! The hosts were superb, and the location fantastic! Did not want to go home.

Views from lounge, peace and quiet of the property, rural location, nice local area, cottage very comfortable and very well fitted.
The standard of the property was out of this world, from the excellent welcome pack through to the outstanding view through the patio doors. We had a very warm welcome from the owners. We particularly enjoyed watching the horses and chickens on the paddock outside the patio doors.
We had an excellent holiday. The view out the window is of outstanding beauty. The property and the environment was magnificent. The owners were kindly and they gave us a warm welcome.
The hosts provided that little extra that made the holiday. The glorious panorama from the cottage and being able to sit outside for my 60th birthday afternoon tea, whilst being visited by the free range hens, all added to the peace and contentment.
Perfect cottage. Perfect view. Perfect location. Perfect hospitality. Small but perfect in every way. We will certainly return.
