The cottage was spotlessly clean, facilities and equipment great, and the location brilliant for exploring and walking with my dog. Would highly recommend and hope to return one day soon.

You could not be better located to explore the Dales if you tried, all the local towns and villages, dramatic scenery, stunning views etc were just on the doorstep. Cottage was very clean and comfortable with parking included. Rose and Crown was a great local pub, with friendly staff and good food. Good walking area for dogs as well. Highly recommended.

The double bed was very comfortable and all furnishings perfect for the accommodation. All necessary information for electrical goods was easy to follow along with lots of local information. It suited our needs perfectly as we are of the older generation and downstairs bedrooms worked out really well.
