Perfectly placed in the middle of the village. The car parking space was an added bonus. Lots of walks from the cottage. Good upstairs space and great view from the window. Would reccomend this cottage.

Grassington is a pretty, vibrant and welcoming village and is the perfect location for exploring the beautiful dales. We loved the nearby walks, the local shops, pubs and the general atmosphere of the place and would return in a heartbeat. The cottage, which has been cleverly and sympathetically modernised, was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and had everything you needed to enjoy this stunning part of Yorkshire. We are very happy to recommend Rose Cottage. You wonât be disappointed.
