Accessibility

Cobweb Cottage is a stone built terraced cottage on a pedestrianised route that comes down from
Settle market place for approximately 100m where it becomes a road.

We have an extensive website, with diagrams of the floor / room layouts and pictures of all the rooms. Bookings / enquiries can be made directly from the website via email, or via telephone or by letter.
The website includes directions to the cottage:
The nearest bus stop is in the market place – 50m away
Settle railway station is 500m away
Giggleswick Railway station is 1 mile away
The nearest RADAR toilet is on Whitefriars car park – 120m away
Settle taxis offices are further down Kirkgate – 200m away
This accessibility guide is available on our website and in the Welcome File in the cottage.

As the cottage is on a now pedestrianised road (the market exit of Kirkgate has a bollard preventing vehicular access) car parking is not available directly outside the cottage. However, it is acceptable to drive to the front door to unload your car and then move it to either the pay and display car park (60m away) or park on the road further down Kirkgate.
North Yorkshire Council (replaced Craven District Council in 2023) are responsible for the pay and display car parks in Settle. A weekly ticket purchasable from the car park machines works out to be very good value for money as it is transferable across several of the Councils car parks.
Disabled spaces are available. Ashfield car park is 60m from the cottage. It is possible to walk on the pavement until reaching the hairdressers where the pavement finishes and then walk on the road to the front door. There is slope down from Ashfield car park to Kirkgate and a slight incline on Kirkgate to the cottage where it levels off.

The main entrance is the front door from Kirkgate. The key for this door is issued to our guests before arrival. When possible, we prefer to meet our guests. Alternatively they may use the key box provided at the rear entrance. A code is issued before arrival.
The front door is 81cm x 176cm, with the hinge on the right. The keyhole is 92cm high.
