A traditional old village made up of stone-built cottages and farmhouses, West Witton enjoys dramatic views of Penhill and its limestone scars, along with Bolton Castle, lush rolling countryside and the surrounding fells. The village boasts two pubs, one of which is a gourmet pub and has been awarded the Wensleydale Heifer 2006/07 AA 'England's best seafood pub' award, as well as a well stocked village shop and a pretty green. Across the valley from the village stand the imposing ruins of Castle Bolton, while Leyburn, with its wide range of amenities and weekly market, Middleham, with its Norman Castle, famous racing stables and pretty old market square surrounded by delightful shops, pubs and restaurants, and the picturesque Aysgarth Falls, are just a short drive away.

    It was beautifully clean and contained all the equipment we needed. We found it to be a great base for visiting the Yorkshire Dales and we didn't have to travel far for great days out. We visited with my 80+ year old father and our daughter and son-in-law who also really enjoyed their stay. The only thing my Dad would add was that he would have appreciated a grab rail in the shower, but was glad there was a slip mat provided.

    Suggest a dustpan and brush is made available and a clothes airer to dry wet clothes

    The only problems we had related to one of the toilets in the front bedrooms on which the fitting attaching the seat to the toilet appeared to be broken and therefore we were unable to use it. This was reported to the contact number in the cottage information folder and also to Sykes cottages. The other concern was that the gates were not secure enough for small dogs, ours was able to get through the gaps between the bars of the gates.
