We found a farm track just up the road but not sure if we were trespassing. (turn left from the cottage and cross over the road, track goes up a bit of a hill). The cottage had no cleaning items (anti bac spray etc) but did provide washing and dishwasher tablets, two tea towels but no hand towel for the kitchen. The garden is fairly small, slabbed and slate, no grass area, the hot tub was great but I did notice some dirt residue on the bottom before we first used it and when switched on, it must have churned it up as it left a soap scum around one of the edges. We found lots of fantastic walking areas, but had to travel between 30 mins to just over an hour as the village is very remote. Can definitely recommend Raincliffe Woods and Falling Foss.

The living room could do with refreshing as an electrician the sky lead to the tv looks a mess, also because we did get some hot weather a couple of fans would of been great.
