Dallicar House Reviews

Andrea

An amazing property in a beautiful setting. Modern, clean, spacious and warm and with all you need for a wonderful holiday. A welcome with fizz and chocolates was a lovely touch. We loved our time there and cant recommend it highly enough.

Wow, what a place to stay. We stayed here with friends and all our kids and it was fantastic. The photos dont do it justice. We had everything we needed for a luxurious week away. The views were stunning and the welcome hamper was a lovely touch. Cant fault the stay and the smell of the house was beautiful too. Adults and kids just loved it here and none of us wanted to leave. Kids loved sitting in the big windows watching the sheep too. Would recommend this to anyone and weve had so many people ask where we stayed already. Thank you for an amazing holiday!

Charlotte

Dallicar House is simply stunning. Surrounded by gorgeous scenery, its tranquil and calm. We hired here for a weekend and had a fantastic time. Sleeping 12 very comfortably, with cleantidy ensuites and enough living space for everyone to either sit on the sofa or at the dining table. The hot tub was almost too hot for us in the middle of a heatwave, but was well used in the cooler evenings. Elaine was a super host and easy to contact if needed!

Our stay at Dallicar House was complete perfection! I booked the house for my hen weekend and it was a great base for relaxing, celebrating and exploring Settle.

Absolutely stunning house in a beautiful, peaceful area, we highly recommend it. The outdoor space was so relaxing, and with the lovely weather we spent most of our time out there. There were a couple of issues during our stay, and I feel both were completely out of the hosts hands. The hot tub had a problem, but the hosts went above and beyond to sort it, even taking care of things well outside their remit. The large fridge was also broken, which was tricky with 12 people and meant we had to throw away a lot of fresh food in the heat. Again, they addressed it quickly and were incredibly helpful. They even offered us a free extra night and a later check out as an apology. We couldnt stay the extra night, but the late check out meant we didnt have to rush away, which was really appreciated. Despite those hiccups, we had a fantastic stay and would happily return.

This house as can be seen from the pictures is in a stunning position with gorgeous views all around of the dales. The whole house is amply proportioned for a large group, with great facilities to make it an excellent holiday. We will definitely book again, and even in the out of season would be a great place to stay. Settle is a lovely town, and the station is on the amazing line that goes over Ribble Viaduct.

Andrea

What a beautiful cottage, walking in to the entrancekitchen. Gorgeous! We had a fab 3 night stay celebrating 3 of our colleagues 30th Birthdays. There was only 7 of us, however the sizing was perfect. Beautiful outdoor furniture & hot tub too. The only negatives I would say is that some of the crockery needs replacing, matching flutes and cutlery would be nice. The sofas arn't as comfortable as they look. Also 0930 check out is so early, especially stripping the beds and putting them in laundry bags!

Verity

I have been to Dallicar House several times now and it doesn't disappoint. Located along with the sheep and with amazing views is a bonus. I love this place!

Another memorable reunion in such a lovely property. Thank you! PS please keep an eye on the mug and tumbler count. I think some parties must be eating them

Stunning accommodation in beautiful surroundings. Couldnt find fault with anything

Amazing! Even bigger and more beautiful than the photos show. Perfect for a week away with the family. Loved the setting, hottub and house.

Fabulous property, high spec, lots of lovely amenities that make for a comfortable stay. Clean, bright, homely, in a beautiful part of the country. Highly recommend.

Louise

Was a lovely weekend. We all had a wonderful time. Nice walks , lovely pub at the end of the lane and a beautiful house.

Olivia

We had a wonderful stay at Dallicar House. The house was spotless on arrival. It was so well equipped, with thoughtful extras that most places dont include, like dishwasher and washing machine tablets, plus basics such as salt and pepper. The helpful information book with taxi numbers and local tips was a great touch, and the owners were only ever a message away incredibly accommodating and responsive throughout. We even enjoyed a lovely 25minute walk into Settle while the weather held off! A fantastic stay all round we wouldnt hesitate to return.

Jillian

My 4th time visiting Dallicar House. Wish I could move in permanently! 12 members of family were all comfortable celebrating 80th birthday party weekend. So much space , so well laid out.

Claire

We spent the most magical Christmas at Dallicar house. So much thought had gone in to the extra touches for us, we arrived to find the house had been beautifully decorated and lots of treats had been left on the side for us. The barn is surrounded by farmers fields, we loved the occasional sheep coming to have a look through the window at what was going on! The house is so well insulated and the addition of underfloor heating and the wood burner made for such a cosy stay. We had a full Christmas dinner to prepare, but found the kitchen was kitted out with all we needed very much like coming to a very luxurious home from home. All the bedrooms are beautiful, each having its own en suite and stunning view. The weather during our stay was cold but bright and so some time spent in the hot tub as the sun set will stay in our memories for a long time. We grew up in the village of Giggleswick so we are already very familiar with the area, there are so many stunning walks on the doorstep and the fact you can walk down the lane to the Craven Arms is the cherry on the top of the most perfect cake. This is such a special place we wouldnt hesitate to stay again. Thank you for making our stay so special.

Hannah

Wonderful house in the most idyllic location surrounded by stunning views! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Dallicar House to celebrate my 30th birthday weekend, the house was equipped with most things we needed and having the robes for the hot tub was a really thoughtful addition, though the hot tub is small for such a big occupancy house, maximum 6 people but we took turns. On a clear night the sky was breathtaking from the hot tub, we loved watching the stars whilst having a chat. We walked from the house to the river ribble and into Settle. The fire was really spectacular when it got going and kept the house toasty and warm, though the underfloor heating was great too. The Christmas decorations were really nice, and the house was stocked with plenty of plates and glasses, though a bit short on mugs, or maybe we just drank too much tea. We will definitely be back with our family in the future!

Charlotte

This is the 4th year of us having a Christmas celebration at Dallicar house and each time we adore it! So much so weve got our next year booked in already. The house is stunning and has everything you need for the perfect get away!

We would thoroughly recommend this holiday accommodation. We stayed at Dallicar House for a weekend in November for our annual reunion. The accommodation is a luxurious, converted barn on this idyllic farm in the Dales and it was perfect for the 10 of us 5 couples. Its location, near Settle, is very peaceful and yet not far from the A65 and the Settle Carlisle Railway. A great deal of attention has been given to the design and layout of the property and every bedroom in fact every room enjoys a beautiful view from the windows. The owners, who live on site, went out of their way to ensure we had a comfortable stay. We had a day out at Malhan Cove, visited White Scar Cave near Ingleton, watched the salmon leaping at Stainforth Force and had a delicious Sunday roast at the local Craven Arms pub. Everywhere we went we were met with a true Yorkshire welcome!

A wonderful house in a beautiful location. We loved the hot tub looking over the countryside and the real fire inside the house. Rooms all having ensuites was really nice and the kitchen was well equipped. The pub that was ten minutes walk away was a nice option for dinner.

I booked this holiday house for a yearly reunion of ten friends. We have been gathering yearly for several decades now and are well experienced about holiday rental accommodation. Dallicar House was the best so far. A conversion for up to 12 people in 5 comfortable bedrooms. A large, well laid out kitchen with all the usual facilities. Sitting room with ample seating. The dining table is generous for 12 diners. We did not use the outdoor hottub in September!. The most enjoyable part of our stay was the situation of the house, this is above the owner's farm and provides superb views of beautiful Yorkshire Dales countryside. Also there is a fine pub for an excellent evening meal 10 minutes walk away, and shops and interesting sites to visit are a very short drive away in Settle.

Bridgette

We had a fantastic stay for my sisters hen weekended. The property was perfect, lovely location with beautiful views. The welcome basket with processco, crisps and chocolate was a lovely touch. The only issues we had were that we couldnt get the outdoor firepit table to work and the water pressure wasnt great if a few people were showering at once. Otherwise a perfect stay and would stay again.

Lovely converted, comfortable, clean barn, plenty of space for the 11 in our party. Grassed outside area for children to safely play in and the hot tub was very popular. Good outside seating area where we made use of the BBQ. Lovely views, short walk to nearest pub. Many thanks for the welcome pack, Would not hesitate to return to this accommodation.

Ashleigh

What a hidden treasure amongst the sheep and beautiful fields. We have had the most amazing weekend, and this house was truly the cherry on the top. It was the perfect size for our group of 11 and big enough to spread out, so we never felt on top of one another. The hot tub and garden space was such an added bonus. The group are already checking their diaries to see when we can return. Thank you for the most wonderful memories, we cant wait to return to your lovely home!

Tracey

Dallicar House is set in breathtaking surroundings. The home has everything you need and more. We all thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the area, but staying in the lovely Dallicar House made it exceptional. We will all definitely be back.

Perfect Property for a perfect weekend

Dallicar House is a superb property in a wonderful location providing ample opportunities to walkers, like us, to enjoy the scenery and nature of the Dales. The eight of us had plenty of space in the wellappointed five bedrooms, kitchen, dining and relaxing areas. Found some nice pubs for eating special mention to the Craven Arms a ten minute walk away and the Talbot Arms in Settle town centre. A truly memorable stay, thank you.

Charlotte

55 We had a fantastic stay at Dallicar House! The place is absolutely beautifulspacious, comfortable, and surrounded by stunning scenery. One of the highlights was watching the sheep wander right up to the windowsit was such a peaceful and unique experience. The house was spotless and really wellequipped, with loads of utensils and everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It felt like a home away from home. We loved every minute and would absolutely stay again. Highly recommend!

Fantastic place for a large group to stay in order to tackle the 3 Yorkshire Peaks in a day. Stylish and comfortable in lovely setting. Hot tub a real bonus!

This is the second time we have stayed at Dallicar house, and it was another fantastic stay. Thank you

Catherine

Charlotte

Absolutely love Dallicar House, this is my 4th visit and we already have a 5th booked! The house is well equipped for everything we need as a large group. Cannot wait to come again!!

Truly memorable stay for our Christmas family get together. Loved it all. Magical setting and beautiful Christmas decor started off our precious holiday perfectly. Thoughtful welcome hamper was much appreciated and we felt completely at home to enjoy the festivities. Thank you from three happy families

What a wonderful property! We rented the house as a festive break for friends. We couldn't fault it. The sitting room is ideal for chatting, watching TV and playing games. There is a fantastic dining room table which seats all the guests and the kitchen area is huge and amazing. All the bedrooms felt luxurious and the house was decorated beautifully with a lovely Christmas tree and garlands. The hot tub was a great feature too, all guests were provided with a fluffy white dressing gown. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property. We are already planning to go back.

We stayed FriMon and it was an exceptional weekend. Facilities were outstanding and we didn't want for anything. We asked for more fire wood and it was delivered immediately. There were only sheep for neighbors, very peaceful. Would definitely stay there again.

ie-louise

Fantastic property and location!

Georgina

Just got back from a weekend away at Dallicar House celebrating my mums 60th with family. Everyone commented on how well maintained and modern the house was. It had everything we needed and the open plan layout of the house really leant to a large group. We were in walking distance to the local pub, The Craven Arms, which was perfect for one of our evening meals. Wed planned a walk around Malham Cove which was only a 20 minute drive away. Great location! The only small thing I would say, is maybe to add another hot tub, so that larger groups can enjoy the beautiful set up outside together. Thank you for our lovely, memorable stay. We will be recommending the house to friends and family, and hope to be back in the future!

Heather

What a Gem in the Yorkshire Dales. Plenty of room for a group of friends or family, with spacious bedrooms, lounge, a dining area to seat everyone with a well equipment kitchen to cater for our needs. The hot tub with amazing views and plenty of parking. Would highly recommend the nearby pub The Craven Arms. Many thanks for allowing us to share your beautiful home. Would stronger recommend this top quality holiday cottage
