    Only a10 min walk into Grassington or Threshfield, both have a well stocked store for food/drinks etc. David, lives next door was a perfect host, very friendly and welcoming. We all very much enjoyed our stay and would recommend to everyone. Can recommend the food at The Queen's in Litton a 15/20 min drive.

  • Colin

    Couldn’t fault it. Will be on our top list of houses to return to. Great location for the area. Lots to do. Four comfortable bedrooms. 4 bathrooms. In a quiet cul de sac with great views. Good garden to sit in if you get the weather. Well equipped with comfortable furniture. We had no issues whilst we were there but if we had hosts live next door. Very friendly.

  • Heidi

    The location and the house was definitely our favourite place to stay so far. The house was warm, spacious, very well equipped, super comfortable and immaculately clean. We had everything we needed and more, for a perfect stay. The views over the Dales from the lounge, dining room and kitchen were stunning and it was perfectly situated to visit a host of beautiful places by foot and by car. David and Brettle were excellent hosts. They were welcoming and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The welcome pack was very much appreciated and was a lovely touch. Thank you both for letting us stay in your beautiful cottage. We can't recommend Peggy's Place highly enough and we can't wait to visit again.
