  Castlewood Cottage was ideal for us.

  There was ample space, and we all appreciated the tasteful interior decor. The beds were comfortable with towels and linen of good quality. There was plenty of hanging space and hangers. A lot of thought had been put into the finer detaills (not always found in holiday rentals) - hand soap by every sink, large toilet rolls, dishwasher tablets and laundry liquid were supplied. The welcome pack for the humans was a lovely touch, as was the Scooby Snacks doggy chocolate! The double bedroom window had views of the church and castle. For insomniacs, the closeness to the chimes of the church clock were a reminder I didn’t need. The weather was somewhat disappointing for our rare and important family reunion with the Aussies, but the comfort of the cottage and the genuinely warm welcome and great service we received in shops, restaurants, cafes and bars was outstanding. We highly recommend The Woolly Sheep pub and restaurant , Cock and Bottle, VSQ Gin & More Bar and Kibble Dog Friendly Coffee House in Skipton. The Fountaine Inn in Linton continues give great value for money and delish, hearty meals served by friendly staff. The Retreat Tearoom and Black Horse Hotel in Grassington and Wonky Cafe in Settle were also very good. Castle Woods behind the impressive medieval castle is ideal for dog walkers. A thoroughly enjoyable stay was had by all - thank you. We highly recommend Castlewood Cottage as a base for exploring the beautiful Yorkshire Dales.

  The stay at the Moss side retreat was amazing with spectacular views of the beautiful hills and the farmlands.

  The cottage itself was very clean and nicely presented with extreamly good quality items provided in the house (from utelsils to towels - full package). We were a family of 4 adults and 2 kids who stayed very comfortably over thweekend. The wooden log burner in the living room is the STAR of the house as sitting around it over the evening chitchatting is such a great feeling ! Plenty amount of logs were provided which would easily cover the weekend use. Very soft throws were also provided to keep us warm during the chilly evenings. Lovely yummy Lemon drissle cake awaited our welcome witha white sprakling bottle of white wine. Lovely touch of detail by the house owner ! We had a amazing time playing with kids at the well curated green lawns and enjoying a lovely sunshine chitchat at the sun lounger and the outdoor furniture area... All in all - a 5* retreat highly recommended for family, kids and grand parents. If i was retired .. would have loved to spend atleast a week in the lovely retreat,

  The property owners live next door and are very friendly and helpful.

  However they do not intrude and respect your privacy, you would not know they are there. The cake and wine on arrival was a nice surprise. Accommodation was very clean and tidy with everything you would need. Generous size bedrooms and living area. There was a whole driveway with large parking area just for the use of Moss Side Retreat. The holiday home is in a great location with short drive to all the attractions of the dales. To be so close to everything but still in a quiet setting out in the countryside was a bonus. The views from the cottage are stunning in every direction. We never got to use the log fire but it looked like it would be very cosy on a cold winter night. There is also full central heating provided. All in all very recommended and we will be back again sometime soon.

  A lovely stay in a well located cottage, the cottage was welcoming and inviting.

  Upon arrival, there was some milk,tea and coffee provided which was a nice gesture. The cottage is a great base for walking and a visit to Malham to see the cove and Janet’s Foss. After a 12 mile walk, Dyson House is a great place to come home and relax. There were a few areas which could be improved, the kitchen was lacking some utensils such as small sharp knives for chopping and the oven door was faulty as it struggled to close. The hinge on the left hand side is not secured in properly which caused problems during the stay. Another minor issue, was that in some areas of the home there are damp spots where wallpaper is starting to peel, which is something to watch in the future. Overall, we had a really enjoyable stay at Dyson House and would consider this cottage to stay in the future.

  A really nice cottage.

  We had a lovely time. Chris and Dave are great hosts and the location is perfect. Bedrooms are good with super comfy beds! Unfortunately the driveway to the house is terrible- large potholes full of water. There’s some issue regarding ownership but surely a tonne bag of rubble could be arranged. The owners have a separate driveway, shame this couldn’t be extended. Always hard to give feedback without sounding negative! Suggestions for an already high standard: Somewhere for food storage (all cupboards are full) Draining rack for sink (a small fold away one maybe), the logs need to be cut smaller as hard to burn them and keep fire going, door mat in porch for wet feet, small DVD player as no Sky and only basic TV (even if guests bring their own DVD’s )
