Welcome to Gisburne Park Estate, one of Lancashire’s finest private estates, on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales. A 1000 acres of picturesque Ribble Valley countryside, owned and managed by Amber and Guy Hindley and family. Nestled within the Estate is Ribblesdale Park, the North of England’s leading hot tub holiday destination. A collection of contemporary lodges, historic houses, cosy cottages or glorious glamping.
Huntsman’s Cottage is now fully refurbished and open as a holiday cottage. Situated on the edge of the Estate in an Area of Outstanding National Beauty it was built in 1678.
The cottage will sleep up to 8 people in 4 generously sized bedrooms. These bedrooms feature 1 super kind, 2 kings, and a twin bedroom. There is a house bathroom upstairs and each bedroom has a TV and DVD player. Downstairs is a large sitting room with a log burner and TV. There is also a spacious dining room and a kitchen with everything you need. There is also a shower room and loo and a utility room with a washer dryer. Outside there is a 1/2 acre garden, fenced off which is all yours to enjoy. Here is where you will find a luxury 6-person hot tub.
This cottage oozes all the charm and character you would expect from a listed country cottage; oak beams, asymmetrical walls, log burners and creaky floor boards. Its situated on the edge of an old farm and livery yard so if you don’t like animals then this isn’t the place for you…there are chickens, ducks, horses, ponies and all sorts down there.

Beautiful spacious cottage that is classily furnished and has amazing outdoor space - patio and lawn which the lovely weather allowed us to fully enjoy. The complimentary Prosecco was a much appreciated and totally unexpected surprise- thank you! 🥂🎉Enjoyed the entertainment and food at Hindelinis both Friday and Saturday although the service was quite slow and felt disorganised but this didn’t distract from the overall experience.A couple of minor changes that would have made it a 5* stay - outdoor dining set needs treating/revarnishing and 8 chairs would have been appreciated when dining outside.

We stayed for 3 nights at the Huntsman we have visited lots of times before but this was our first stay in this beautiful cottage as it’s usually fully booked! It’s a beautiful place and has everything you need for however long you stay. There are a few tweaks I would make which you wouldn’t really know unless you stayed there. Next door is Whipps cottage,a lovely distance apart but where you park your car to stay at Huntsman’s it’s literally where the other guests are relaxing in the hot tub, if you extended the tall fencing round to cover that for their privacy and also so you don’t feel awkward going to the car that would be a good upgrade. Because of it being such a large property and garden I understand it’s hard to clean and get turned around in time for the next guests, but the bbq was dirty, the lights above the hot tub one had smashed and the glass was over the flagstones and random broken children’s toys in the grass. This didn’t taint our holiday at all just pointers

Upon arrival at the Huntsman cottage it was clean and tidy. Plenty of space for us all. Lovely and cosy. Added benefit of the outdoor hot tub which was enjoyed by everyone in the cool weather. We were shown to the cottage which helped. We would give the cottage 5 stars. On the Saturday evening we went to Hindelinis restaurant which we were looking forward to. We were left disappointed after the visit. The service was just ok, we felt like the staff couldn't be bothered. Glasses left in table not cleared, menus left and not taken awsy, not enough cutlery for our party. We had to request more. We just felt a bit deflated after it.

Fantastic from start to finish. Stayed in Huntsmans Cottage and was great, very quiet location, very warm and very clean and everything spot on. Hindelinis was excellent and food and service very good as always and all the staff super friendly. Good rural walks for my dog and Skipton and Clitheroe only a short drive away and Gargrave a lovely little village. Of course will be booking again and you have to visit if you have not been. Highly recommend.
