We loved Windyridge, it was perfect for our Christmas break. Both the kitchen/diner and lounge were nicely decorated. The cottage was toasty warm and well equipped, even the knives were sharp, a rare thing in holiday cottages. It's in a great location too, fabulous views over the valley and a short walk to an excellent pub, there's even a fish and chip van visiting on a Friday.

A stunning location with amazing views over Swaledale. Great area for walking and exploring the Dales. Cottage really well equipped and so peaceful. 5 mins walk to very nice pub and others in nearby villages. Highly recommend this accommodation.
