  In terms of your tick rating we were quite disappointed with this property.

  We have self catered a lot so have several places to compare it with. The beds were comfy though comfort in super king suffered because of ‘twin’ join. In a general sense the cottage was clean - bathroom, toilets etc and the heating system worked well so warm and cosy. However here is a list of some of the main things we feel let us down Limited kitchen equipment eg no sieve to drain rice, initially no cafetière, no pyrex basins, measuring jug, scales etc. Filthy grill and oven. Guest book comments would suggest this has been the case for sometime! Impossible access to fridge/freezer, grill and oven once people are seated at the table Kitchen table and seating only really caters for six people General impression of kitchen was that it needed revamping and reorganising Extractor fan in downstairs loo blew out dirty fluff Loo brushes and holders needed renewing Upstairs shower screen leaked badly over floor Inadequate storage for clothing. Ridiculous coathangers. Looked as though they were a job lot from Mothercare . Could not hang adult trousers on them. Television wouldn’t work because the aerial socket was broken Generally we felt the cottage looked ‘tired’ and worn and needed a redo especially as we stayed at the beginning of the season the standard was not good. We felt it was ok if you wanted to drink wine (overflowing with wine glasses!), use the hot tub and eat at the pub, not if you were serious about ‘self catering’. By the way, the hot tub was great.

  We loved our week at this property.

  On arrival we were greeted by a lovely cake and welcome pack from the owner which was a lovely touch after our drive. The kitchen was bright and fresh and had everything you could possibly need only slight suggestion is to maybe look at some new frying pans as the ones there are starting to lose their non-stick. The coffee machine wasn't listed on the description which was a lovely bonus on arrival so we could have a lovely coffee. The sitting room again was lovely and bright and had enough seating for everyone. The owner provided lots of blankets for sitting outside and materials for starting a fire in the wood burner. the bedrooms had so much space in them and were also so very comfy so it was lovely to go to bed after a long day exploring. The hot tub was beautiful and again perfect for a couple of hours in the afternoon when we stayed in rather than explore. I love how secure the garden was for the two dogs this truly is a pet friendly property. Only a couple of things were the communications on arrival information/times were varying across different messages via Sykes, owner and advert even after confirming with Sykes the check-in time. Also the adverts doesn't state there are steps throughout the property on each level apart from the main stairs. For us it wasn't a problem but with a family member becoming less mobile a little notes about this might be worth considering. We look forward to visiting again.

  Having worked in the travel industry for the past 25 years, it's fair to say I've been spoilt and it takes a lot to impress me.

  Lianne's beautiful cottage however did just that. I had a brilliant night with my husband to be prior to our wedding, a night with my closest friends, brother and mother the night before the big day and then my friends had an amazing place to relax the night of the wedding. Lianne really was an absolute joy to deal with and made it so easy for us, even taking some things left behind to the hotel to collect upon my return from honeymoon. The cottage is a home from home, everything done to a very high standard, impeccable clean with so much attention to detail. It's next to a lovely pub literally next to and the wood fried hot tub was such a barrel (excuse the pun) of laughs! I'll always have such fond memories of where I stayed right before my wedding and won't hesitate to return as I find it both fabulous value for money and such a beautiful area to explore!

  Bridge End Cottage is a stunning little cottage in the heart of Stainforth.

  The cottage was lovely and clean and the welcome pack, cake, bubbly and flowers were a really nice surprise. Thank you. When booking I was worried that the hot tub would be overlooked by those walking over the bridge, but the garden is designed so well. It's split in two, one small area that leads to the stream where you can sit and enjoy the fire pit, the main garden is a tranquil spot to sit back and relax. All the bedrooms had super comfy beds. All facilities in the cottage were well thought of, there was everything we needed plus more. Stainforth is a gorgeous little village perfectly situated to explore Yorkshire. If you like walking you could easily leave your car at the cottage and explore locally for the week. If you like a bit of industrial history, visit the Craven Lime Kilns, a short walk away and quite undiscovered.

  Let me start by saying that it is a beautiful cottage, done to a high spec and is just gorgeous to look at.

  However, there were cobwebs over the range and in the kitchen and also skirting boards -as we bent down to plug something in, we noticed were not clean. We would have expected a tea towel and salt and pepper as basic provision but there were none. We also had to find our own charger for the blue-tooth speakers as they were flat and no charger could be found. (One broken one was found) There was a baking tray we went to use that had been put away unclean - and I mean, baked on food and grease. The owners could also have popped an explanation in their do's and don'ts (mostly don'ts!) about the town parking disc situation and some take away menus perhaps. Loved the cottage, and company was fab, but would not stay there again because of all the aggro and lack of detail. Shame.
