Guests say
The Forge is a spacious and comfortable cottage set in picturesque surroundings, ideal for both pets and children. Guests have enjoyed the beautiful location, the friendly reception, and the characterful accommodation. Despite some maintenance issues, the helpful staff and the cottage's charm have led to repeat bookings and recommendations.
The cottage received praise for being clean and tidy, with only minor comments about cobwebs and limescale stains. No significant complaints about cleanliness were noted, suggesting a generally high standard.
The location is highly regarded, with guests appreciating the quiet setting and proximity to local attractions. The scenic surroundings and on-site amenities like the park and cafe add to the appeal.
Comfort levels are generally good, with the spaciousness of the cottage being a highlight. However, some guests found the beds too firm and the lack of blinds in bedrooms could be an issue in summer.
Facilities are adequate but several guests reported maintenance issues such as blocked sinks, non-functioning items, and noise from building work. The staff's responsiveness to problems is noted, but the need for maintenance improvements is evident.
There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the hosts. Therefore, it is not possible to provide a score in this category.

Lovely cottage comfy ideal location to visit Yorkshire shame we didn't get to use coffee shop due to opening times ad we were out and about when they were open. Quite location with plenty to see on site with fishing lakes.

Excellent cottage with a few snags, building work right next to us from 8am every morning, no chance of a lay in and not pre warned, sink blocked in twin room, reported to reception and nothing done about it, little or no sound proofing between neighbours, over all a pleasant stay but wouldn’t like to go in season when it’s busy, just our choice.

Bathroom facilities not maintained or usable, understand it was self catering but not even the basics under the sink. The space was nice, the location good.
