Guests appreciated the thoughtful touches, such as complimentary items, contributing to a pleasant stay.
Guests consistently described the property as clean and welcoming. One mention of stained chairs suggests room for improvement, but overall, the cleanliness is highly regarded.
The location is highly praised for its convenience to Skipton, beautiful walks, and peaceful setting on a golf course. Its easy access to nearby towns and attractions adds to its appeal.
The property is generally considered comfortable, with good-sized bathrooms and comfortable beds. However, some guests found the settee uncomfortable and noted space constraints in non-master rooms.
Facilities are well-equipped for self-catering, but guests reported issues such as insufficient toilet paper, a lack of butter as advertised, and a poor WiFi connection. The small fridge and dishwasher were also noted for a family of five.
Guests mentioned thoughtful gestures like complimentary bread, cake, and milk, which were appreciated. However, as these gifts are not guaranteed for every stay, they should be considered a delightful bonus rather than an expectation.

We had a lovely week at Kestrel View and it was perfect for our family of 5. The location was great with beautiful walks close by. The staff at the golf course were friendly and we enjoyed a meal at the bar. The apartment was exactly as described. It was clean and had everything we needed to cook during our stay although Id say the fridge and dishwasher were quite small for the 5 of us. It is a quiet location with nice views.
