Perfect in every way
An outstanding cottage in an ideal location. This feels like a home from home rather than just another holiday rental - spacious, comfortable and characterful. The location is fantastic; Austwick is a lovely unspoilt village, traditional stone cottages framed by views of the Dales- unchanged for years. There is a little shop, quiet pub with good food which has attached patisserie open in the morning selling fresh croissants, bread and pastries. Local walks with spectacular views are right on the doorstep and the cottage has everything needed after a day exploring .. a utility room with washing machine/dryer, two bathrooms one with a lovely shower, a living room with wood burner…and of course the family friendly village pub with garden and food in easy walking distance. The cottage is furnished and decorated with care, the private back garden is a bonus. We have stayed in the area numerous times - this is our favourite stay.

Warm and comfortable place to relax
We have been back to stay for Easter week, after a five year break. The cottage is as beautiful as we remembered and is very fully fitted out. Booking a table is essential at the pub, which has opened a very good bakery recently. There are many walks in the surrounding countryside, where you are bound to meet a friendly local. This was our fifth visit; we love the cottage and the village, and would highly encourage a stay.

Lovely cottage in a peaceful village
A lovely stay in a very comfortable, well-equipped cottage. We had a mostly wet week but we founds lots to see and do in the area, and the log burner was most welcome in the evenings! Some lovely walks in the area and we plan to return.

Wonderful cottage
A lovely cottage in a great village (wonderful pub!) The cottage is very comfortable, well equipped. Both bedrooms are spacious, each with a good bathroom/ en-suite. Moughton cottage has lovely secluded garden to relax in, very quiet yet in the centre of the village. Parking onsite for one car was a real bonus.
We walked out everyday from the cottage. Very pretty area with lots to do.
Highly recommend and will definitely return if we are in the area.

Lovely comfy cosy cottage
We had a great stay in Moughton Cottage. It was brilliant to be able to go for walks from the door and the off road parking was an added bonus as Austwick can get very busy.
The cottage is very well equipped, with plenty of space for the four of us. The beds were comfortable and it was blissfully quiet at night. We had a great stay and wouldn't hesitate to return!

Great location
Beautiful cottage in a lovely village. Austwick is a great base for walking and a short drive from Ingleborough Caves and Ingleton Waterfalls. Cottage is well looked after with everything you would need for your stay. Private parking and a beautiful garden. Good local pub but book in advance as it gets busy. Make sure you try the bakery attached to the pub as the cakes are delicious.

Fantastic place to stay
Wonderful cottage to base oneself for a stay in the Yorkshire Dales. The cottage was immaculately clean and had everything one would need for a week away from home. The beds are amazingly comfortable. Without getting in a car we were able to walk up Inglebourgh from the house and eat at the Game Cock and shop for amenities at the village shop. Everyone was very friendly in the village. The house is secure with a lovely garden which is a sun trap. Short drives took us to Bolton Abbey, the Wensleydale Creamery, White Scar Cave, Ribbleshead Viaduct, Ingleton Falls and lovely pub/restaurants, Fantastic cycling too so take your bikes. Highly recommend a visit.

Back again
The visitors book shows that most people who stay at Moughton Cottage keep coming back. This was our fourth return to a perfect base for a few days in the Dales. Very comfortable and cosy, great food at the Game Cock Inn and perfect location. Can't wait to be back again.
