Tom Galloway, from Dacre, Son & Hartley’s Settle office, said: “Fellside is a beautiful house that oozes character and charm and is very homely. The property offers generous living space and impressive gardens, where you can sit and listen to the sound of running water flowing down Clapham Beck.

“Clapham has always been a highly sought-after village beneath majestic Inglebrough. It has a broad range of amenities including local shops and cafés, a village hall, public house, ancient church and is surrounded by stunning countryside, so it’s easy to see how it was the birthplace and inspiration for such a popular Yorkshire magazine celebrating God’s Own Country.”
