Guests consistently enjoy the private hot tub and well-equipped lodge, making it a favourite for repeat visitors, families, and dog owners. While most find the property clean and comfortable, some mention areas for improvement such as towel provision, bed comfort, and minor maintenance issues. The location is ideal for exploring the Yorkshire Dales and nearby towns, with the friendly village atmosphere adding to the appeal.
Most guests found the lodge clean and well-presented, though a few noted issues such as dog odours, dirty windows, and occasional maintenance lapses. These were outweighed by the majority of positive comments.
The location is frequently described as perfect, with beautiful views, peaceful surroundings, and excellent access to walks, local pubs, and train stations. The proximity to Skipton and the Yorkshire Dales is a major highlight.
Guests generally found the lodge comfortable and relaxing, with spacious interiors and cosy furnishings. Some mentioned hard mattresses and the need for larger beds, but overall comfort was rated positively.
The lodge is well-equipped, with a standout hot tub and all essentials for a pleasant stay. Some guests noted minor issues such as towel shortages, small fridge, and maintenance needs, but these did not detract significantly from the overall experience.

The location of the cabin and the views are excellent and the village has a good local shop and 2 pubs, 1 of which serves food on the weekend evenings. The hot tub was the saving grace for us after long walks around Grassington, Malham, Ingleton and The Pennine Way. Unfortunately the cleanliness and comfort lets the cabin down. Windows were dirty, shower was tepid and drain was blocked, kitchen smelt like old spilt milk hadn't been cleaned properly, extractor fans were exceptionally noisy, dishwasher didn't clean, close airer was broken, doors didn't close properly...all in all it just looked neglected which was a real shame. Previous reviews mentioned the lack / quality of towels so we took our own and I would concur with this. The guest book on site appeared to have good reviews and returns so perhaps we were just unlucky this week.
