Fabulous accommodation, everything we could wish for was provided. We took things with us as some properties do not provide enough equipment but here everything was covered. We even had dog towels and bowls which we never expected. Very spacious and clean. We took our own games, but again, there was already an assortment provided. We didn’t watch TV so can’t comment on that service but we noticed that there was also an abundance of videos to watch if needed. Plenty of walks for the dogs, they were absolutely shattered. Thank you for a great week, we would definitely book this accommodation again.

Fantastic location to visit the Yorksire Dales. Leyburn 2 minutes walk with all the shops you could need. Lovely views across from the seating areas in the garden. Very handy second door and path if you have someone who has difficulty with stairs. Had a wonderful holiday, would highly recommend.

Had a lovely week in this cottage, it has everything you need (and more) for a relaxing break. Breathtaking views from the hot tub and ideally located to explore the local area.
