“Honey pot cottage was absolutely lovely, we had an amazing stay and everything was as described.”
We booked it the very last minute (the day before) and when we got there the cottage was warm & welcoming. It had a few Christmas decorations which we thought was a nice touch and the hamper was much appreciated. So many places to visit from the doorstep, Bentham is a lovely village! also lots of hikes & walks! Will definitely be back. 5⭐️

The property
The delightful mid-terrace house of Honey Pot Cottage rests in the heart of Bentham.
Idyllically positioned between the Yorkshire Dales National Park and Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this is the perfect rural getaway for a family of four.
Lying at the front of the dwelling is a handy off-road parking space, for your convenience.
Enter the property to discover a rustic sitting room, the ceiling is adorned with exposed beams and the space is accompanied by a toasty gas stove-effect fire to warm you up after a day of countryside rambling; switch on the Smart TV to enjoy a movie night.
Continue to the back of the property to come across a well-equipped kitchen, the room has been fitted to a high standard with bright, white cabinets that host all your appliances to whip up those culinary delights; additionally, you can find a washing machine for your laundry facilities.
Enjoy an alfresco evening meal on the raised patio as the sun begins to set over this stunning part of Yorkshire.
After a lovely evening packed with quality time with your loved ones, head upstairs to rest your head in two wonderful double bedrooms, one with a vaulted ceiling and ample storage for your belongings.
The bedrooms benefit from being near a shower room that is ideal for those evenings where you want to wash away the day in the walk-in cubicle, before wrapping yourself up in a warm towel from the heated rail.
A highlight of the property is its location, Honey Pot Cottage rests less than a mile away from three fantastic pubs, along with two convenience stores; Bentham also hosts two golf courses for those afternoons where you want to enjoy a tournament with the family.
Venture north east to the village of Ingleton to discover a picturesque gateway into the Yorkshire Dales National Park; embark on the Waterfalls Trail to discover the stunning Thornton Force Waterfall, before hiking further to the fascinating White Scar Cave, or climb the Ingleborough Mountain Peak and explore its famed caves.
Spend the day in Kirkby Lonsdale and view the quaint Devil's Bridge, before trekking up the Radical Steps to the stunning viewpoint of Ruskin's View, where you can see the winding River Lune and the peaks of the National Park in the distance.
Enjoy an outing in Morecambe and spend some time strolling along the promenade, before touring the Stone Jetty and Dog Friendly Beach; spend the afternoon playing adventure golf and splashing in the waters of Happy Mount Park.
There is so much left of this region to discover, be sure to travel further into the Yorkshire Dales National Park or Forest of Bowland AONB to find more outdoors activities; why not visit Lancaster for a day out with a difference?
For your next North Yorkshire adventure, choose Honey Pot Cottage.
Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.
About the location
HIGH BENTHAM
Ingleton 3 miles; Kirkby Lonsdale 10 miles; Lancaster 12 miles.
Positioned just west of the Yorkshire Dales, on the northern fringes of the Forest of Bowland, this lovely town is split into High Bentham and Low Bentham, with the babbling River Wenning running between the two. The town boasts an annual agricultural show, with handicraft, horticulture and livestock competitions, which dates back to the 19th century. In addition to this is the annual Carnival and funfair, entertaining a thriving community with workshops, music and many fundraising events. High Bentham has an array of public houses and eateries to choose from, and the railway station sits on the Leeds to Morecambe line. For walking enthusiasts, there are colour coded circular trails of different lengths and capabilities, right on the doorstep. The neighbouring village of Ingleton offers some wonderful caves and tumbling waterwalls, along with a year-round climbing wall and a good range of shops, pubs and places to eat. Enjoy a trip out to Morecambe Bay with your bucket and spade, where you can fly your kites, build sandcastles or simply take a stroll along the promenade. For more independent shops and restaurants, the town of Kirkby Lonsdale is only a short drive away, with access to Ruskin's View. Take the footpath from the churchyard at St. Mary's Church and follow the trail high about the River Lune, where you can marvel at a panorama of the Lune Valley and Underley Hall. A wonderful location for exploring National Parks, Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the North West coastline.
