Guests that stayed at this property said

The cottage is consistently described as spotless, indicating a high level of cleanliness that guests are very satisfied with.

The location is highly praised for its stunning views, proximity to walks, and quiet rural setting, although the limited opening of the local pub suggests a need to travel for dining.

Guests find the cottage comfortable and warm, with special mentions of cosy bedrooms and a lounge with a wood burner, contributing to a very comfortable stay.

The property is well-equipped and guests love the Aga and wood burner. However, initial issues with the key and Wi-Fi access slightly mar the experience.

There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness, so it is not possible to provide a score in this category.

    • Mr Hunt

      Lovely property with quality items throughout. Perfect location for walking the 3 peaks which we did on separate days. Also visited the White Scar Caves which was an enlightening experience. We organised a Tesco home delivery to coincide with our arrival as the cottage is in an isolated spot so bear that in mind if you aren't taking supplies with you. Beautiful garden and views but unfortunately our week was rather wet so didn't get the full benefit of sitting outside. If we visit the Dales again we would definitely consider staying here again.

      Good cottage in quiet rural location. Clean throughout with plenty of equipment. We had difficulty on arrival with the key to the front door and also accessing Wi-Fi as password incorrect. Problems eventually sorted out after a few phone calls and subsequent lock change but not an ideal start to holiday. Local pub mentioned in property description is rarely open - only once during our stay - so be prepared to drive for food and drink. Garden immaculate with stunning views.

      This is a lovely place to stay, with great views to Ingleborough situated in a tiny picturesque hamlet with a pub closeby. The cottage is comfortable, warm and well equipped ideal for those who love to walk.
