We loved everything about this adorable cottage. It felt very homely as soon as we walked in. Carpeby is a delightful village with so many lovely circular walks from the cottage. The village pub, The Wheatsheaf, was also lovely and very welcoming, serving terrific food and ales. Alpine Cottage and its location could not be bettered. We will definitely return.

stunning location and the cottage was lovely. Great walks locally. Some of the villages were shut on Wednesday. The pub was very welcoming and great with our dog too. The cottage was clean and equipped well. We will be returning to a place which allowed us to unwind.

This was our second visit to Alpine Cottage, and we found it exactly as we remembered from our first.Clean, comfortable and welcoming. We particularly like the kitchen which is well provided with all the bits 'n' bobs that most cooks would require.The garden too is an absolute pleasure, both the lawned area and the patio.Given all of the local attractions, many from the doorstep, we could heartily recommend Alpine Cottage to any lover of the Dales.
