About this property

Rural Seclusion with panoramic countryside views, dog friendly, free WiFi.

8 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, 8 toilets in total, large dinning kitchen, second kitchen, sitting rooms upstairs and downstairs with large open fire, cosy and warm. Snooker room, large garden and unending beautiful countryside.
This spacious large country house was formerly a farmhouse dating from the early 1800s and a magnificent stone barn dating from the 1600s. They are now combined into a newly renovated, newly furnished and newly equipped house suitable for family gatherings and group holidays.

Set at the end of a one mile long private track (tarmacked) in the depths of the beautiful Yorkshire Dales countryside, this former farmhouse makes an excellent base for touring the western Yorkshire Dales and rural Lancashire with the Lake District just an hour and a half away and York a similar time in the other direction.

The pleasant riverside village of Gargrave with late opening Coop supermarket, cafes, pubs and Indian restaurant is 2 miles. The attractive market town of Skipton with large supermarkets (Morrisons, Tescos, Aldi) and many independent shops and restaurants is 7 miles.

Wonderful country walks on public footpaths radiate out in all directions from this idyllically located rural property.

There are 8 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms and 8 toilets. One ground floor king size double bedroom with adjacent bathroom, 2 first floor king size double bedrooms each with spacious en suite bathroom, one double bedroom and four twin bedrooms which means that the house sleeps 16 adults in comfort.

All windows have wonderful long distance views of unspoilt green countryside with grazing sheep, cattle, horses, rolling green hills and woodland.

The renovation is to a high standard.

There is be a new huge farmhouse style dining kitchen complete with 2 oven range cooker, extra large fridge, separate freezer and dining table for 16 people. There is a second kitchen with 4 ring electric hob, oven and grill and another fridge plus a second dishwasher.

The games room has a full size snooker table and full ancillary equipment to professional snooker standard. There are two comfortable sitting rooms (one with open fire in feature stone surround) each with a 42 inch flat screen TV.

Up to 4 dogs are welcome. The garden is dog proof, but they must be on a lead outside the garden because this is sheep farming country.

Four separate public footpaths radiate in different directions from this house, making it a perfect base for easy walking holidays. More strenuous walks are available in nearby Ribblesdale up the Yorkshire Three Peaks.

Stay at home and enjoy the cosy luxury of this wonderful house or get out into the surrounding beautiful countryside with green fields, hills and woods. The choice is yours when you stay at Ingber House.

Robs 60th Birthday weekend
Twelve of us and five dogs descended for my 60th Birthday weekend. The house is huge well cared for, nicely decorated and spotlessly clean. Two huge lounges, great large kitchen, more bathrooms than you can shake a stick and a full size snooker table. The garden is secure with lots of grassed areas and the views are to die for. Gargrave is about 2 miles by road but its only a mile or so over the fields. The location is great. The communication I had with the host was first class. with all of my emails answered quickly. The weather was kinder than the forecast suggested and we all had a fantastic time. The local pubs were great and dog friendly. The only thing that could have been provided was a welcome pack, Pint of milk, couple of dishwasher tablets. things like that. We had a fantastic time and I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

New Year Trip
Lovely quiet location. House perfect for a large number of people. Everyone enjoyed it. The only problem we found was the garden wasn't as secure as we would have liked for the dog's. One small one could get under the fence into the field with sheep in so had to go on a lead all the time and the dogs could get around the path at the side of the house to the front of the property. We reported a couple of issues, no hot water in one of the bathrooms and one of the oven stopped working. Owner apologetic, we understood that on new year's day these couldn't be fixed. Forgot to mention to her that the fridge wasn't that clean on arrival and a couple of things were left in. But overall we would stay there again

Location location
Classic farm building with lots of facilities, not modern, but full of character and spotlessly clean. Well equipped kitchen to cater for everyone eating together., plenty of spacious bedrooms, bathrooms and sitting rooms. Views in all direction over farmland with grazing sheep, horses and cattle. Tractors and silage machines in action one day to the delight of tractor fans of all ages. Walks directly from the property through the landscapes, cars stayed parked all weekend. Snooker, table football chess, board games provided and property ideal for nerf gun ambushes. ( we think we gathered in all the projectiles) TV x2 but not used at all. Hope to return next year.

Very spacious accommodation in a stunning location
The house is very well equipped & the snooker table was an added bonus. We had 6 young adults with us so it was great having two lounges. Unfortunately, the PS4 would not connect to the tv because there is poor internet in parts of the house. This had been my selling point to the boys so I felt bad but they survived. We had some nice walks & the Wensleydale creamery was worth a visit on a drizzly day. The walk along the canal was lovely with 6 locks in succession. I would recommend this property to large family groups & it was also great for the dog! The only downside was the internet & the fact that the shower trays filled up fast in all bathrooms. They probably need unblocking. We didn’t see the owners the entire week.

Wonderful countryside retreat
We had a fantastic time at Ingber house this August. The house is well equipped and very spacious, with two living rooms and a kitchenette as well as the kitchen. You can sit everybody around the huge table, and there’s a smaller table too. The garden is fantastic and overlooks fields in all directions. We really enjoyed the snooker room and the table football, and our toddler had a great time running around the huge house, looking at the sheep and horses, and playing football in the garden. We picked Ingber because of the ability to walk right from the doorstep and this was a huge benefit. You could walk up and over the hill down to the river, and if you go the other way you can walk down to the canal and see several locks. We even walked right to Gargrave one day and went to the pub! The local area is stunning and we were lucky enough to get sunny days, so it was beautiful. We managed a barbecue one day and it was a perfect end to our stay. The house was open and ready when we got there, which was really convenient as our groups all arrived at different times so it would have been a pain to meet somebody to get keys. The communication with the owner was great and very easy. I’ve given four stars only because the house is a little older and tired in parts, eg the furniture, walls, etc. Although it was very clean on arrival.

Family holiday
A perfect place for a holiday with our extended family- 7 adults and 6 children! The house is really well equipped and maintained, great sleeping accommodation and a variety of living spaces - plenty of space. The garden was great, surrounding countryside beautiful and plenty of things to keep us busy both at the house and in the local area. Deb was a fantastic host - very responsive to my enquiries prior to our visit. Thank you very much!

Had a fabulous stay !!
The cottage was very clean and well looked after. Extremely spacious and loved the games room . Sat outside and had a bbq, lovely outdoor space with beautiful views. Walked through the fields to Gargrave and had a lovely lunch at a local pub. Would certainly recommend this cottage to families with all age groups.

Excellent weekend away
We were a group of 12 staying for the weekend to walk the Yorkshire 3 Peaks. We had to delay our original booking due to COVID-19. Communication with the owner was easy. The house was perfect for our stay. It was well equipped and everything was to a high standard. Everyone had a fantastic stay and enjoyed the local area which is lovely. We would all highly recommend staying here.

The Perfect Retreat for Discovering Yorkshire
We had the best 5 days in Yorkshire, discovering the incredible landscape and all it has to offer each day, from the warmth and comfort of a wonderful home from home! Debs was the perfect host providing everything we needed including showing the kids her horses and some much needed recipe ingredients for us! We felt relaxed and revived, in the peace and quiet of a beautiful house with an abundance of space. Debs recommendations for local places to eat were spot on, especially the Bull at Broughton! We’d all come again.

Fabulous Venue - Family Party
The property is well equipped, spacious and very comfortable and set in beautiful countryside, we couldn't fault the venue for our Dad's 80th Birthday get together. We easily accommodated all members of the extended family. The kitchen/dining room was amazing and we spent most of our indoor time in there. we prepared several meals for 20+ quite comfortably in the excellent kitchen. We will book again for anther party weekend. Thank you.

Fedback
Everthing that we had hoped for including the weather. The only negative, and I left a not to this effect, was the condition of the seating, particularly in the downstairs lounge. We had to support the sofa with a fire log and the stuffing has collapsed! A trip to the tip required!
