Holiday Apartments in Malham

What our customers say about their holidays

  The good: - Great location for Malham and the Pennine Way - Lots of space in living areas and two of the bedrooms - Clean The bad: - Lacking some basics (scissors in the kitchen; saucepans big enough to cook basics for 4) - Very small and compromised bathrooms - In poor state of repair in places (large glass shower door held on with silicone, and fell off; bad smell from drains; TVs in bedrooms not working) - Layout of outdoor space leads to a total lack of privacy in garden (which is shared with the neighbouring cottage). For example, the Hot Tub is placed just a few feet from the one belonging to the neighbouring cottage, meaning no privacy if the neighbours use theirs at the same time. (Especially so if you have neighbours who spend their time smoking, drinking, swearing, shouting and arguing in the hot tub!) We eventually cut our stay short and came home a day early. The owner did offer a partial refund, reflecting some of these issues, but this has never materialised and he has since stopped answering messages asking him to honour his promises.

  The location of the property was great, lovely farm shop in village.

  Bonus that there was parking included. Good base to explore the local area. Well equipped kitchen and comfortable living area. Bonus of Netflix. Lovely comfortable bed and bedding. Would have liked a curtain at the front door, although the internal door could be closed. After a day walking, the entrance hall did become muddy, maybe something to put boots on would have helped this. There were no bedside tables or little lamps in one of the bedrooms. You also had to get the plug 'in the right place' in the bath, otherwise it slowly emptied while enjoying a bubble bath. Would have been a nice touch to have a little welcome hamper, although there were some teabags/coffee. Although the property is dog friendly, there were no little touches for a furry friend (bowl/treats) like have had at other dog friendly stays. Would recommend and stay again if in the area.

  Location was beautiful, with great views and lots of local walks. It is remote, so a car is required for days out, and the local roads are often single track with passing places. The accommodation was a bit cramped for five adults. Three bath / shower rooms have been squeezed in, but the layouts are poor. One shower room is tiny, and to get to the basin in the main bathroom you have to squeeze through a gap between the bath and the toilet. Small changes would make a difference such as bins and mirrors in each of the bedrooms. Kitchen was well equipped, but we did have issues with the microwave (blew up and had to be replaced!) and the electricity tripping and being unable to find the fuse box. We added a note to the info folder for future holiday makers.

  This holiday cottage has been recently refurbished to a good standard - everything we needed was to be found in the kitchen.

  Easy to find and check in, good parking right outside. Charming village location just down from Malham with terrific walking. Nice touches such as plenty of dishwasher tabs, loo roll, Netflix and a bottle of wine in the fridge. Only downsides for us were the pillows which were really firm and just not comfortable but appreciate this is a taste thing. Perhaps supply a small selection of different pillows in the wardrobe? Also the main issue which meant we probably wouldn’t return was that downstairs felt really damp. It runs alongside a charming river but perhaps this is why the whole sleeping floor is damp. You can see the walls starting to peel so this must be a persistent problem. Such a shame because otherwise it’s a really nice place.

  We loved Squint Cottage from the moment we entered.

  The living room so cosy even though we didn't need the fire. The kitchen was well equipped, could almost say over equipped, but disappointed nowhere to put the food we brought with us. We managed though, just put it on the counter. The bathroom was lovely too and the towels so big and soft....just what you want when you get out of the shower. The bed was okay for us but some might think too soft. Could do with a chest of drawers or similar to put clothes. I just put them all at the bottom of the wardrobe. The wardrobe was the only problem as it was stiff to open and the handles came off every time. I just left it slightly open all the time. That hasn't put us off though as hope to book it again next year.
