What our customers say about their holidays

  Woodman Cottage is a beautiful well equipped cottage with lots of lovely touches and added extras which made for a very pleasant stay.

  Parking outside the cottage was not always possible which involved parking in the nearby road or nearby car park, however we were aware that this would be be on a first come first served basis. There were only a few minor points regarding the cottage itself, such as no socket near the dressing table in the bedroom which meant having to dry my hair downstairs at the dining table, and also the shower basket provided for holding shampoo, etc was attached too high on the wall to be easily accessed. Plus points were the coat hooks for hanging coats on - something sadly lacking in most other cottages we have stayed in - which were a godsend considering we were staying during the tail end of storm Dennis! On the whole we found it very comfortable and very conveniently situated in the town and would definitely recommend to others.

  The cottage made all the difference.

  It was like being at home - that was the impression we got when we first opened the door. Everything that we could have needed was provided and it all worked! There was even a Nespresso machine and for us that's a big plus. The cottage was quirky in the nicest possible way; there were so many personal touches that it felt almost as though we knew the owner(s) - pity we didn't quite meet them. It was so handy for the town centre - just a short walk, and the parking area next to the cottage worked well (in that we always managed to get parked there). If we need a cottage in Skipton again this is where we'll want to be. I can't praise this cottage highly enough - so much better than we could have imagined. Oh, and another thing - the bathroom (bath and shower) was a dream; then again, it all was.

  This was our son Finn’s first holiday - he is 7 weeks old.

  The cottage was a perfect size for the 3 of us (we brought Finn’s cot with us - which fitted in the bedroom with no problem). The cottage was beautiful, had all the facilities we would need and we really liked the added touches that you don’t get in other properties - cleaning products to use, herbs, spices and oils to cook with, local information and recommendations about where to go. We thought it was fantastic and couldn’t fault it at all. It was also rather cool in the hot days and nights we are having so great to come back to! The location is also brilliant - a 2 minute walk into the centre of Skipton but you don’t hear the noise you would expect by being that close. The bathroom is lovely - especially the shower which we wished we could take home. Thank you for a great holiday!

  It's not often that we find our expectations surpassed in a holiday cottage, but this time we did! Thank you very much, it was fabulous. It's even better than the pictures, really clean and very well equipped. The kitchen has plenty of crockery, glasses, cutlery and pans. The bedding is good quality as are the towels and bathroom fittings. There are plenty of games and also guidebooks with local walks. We visited in February and the weather was challenging on a couple of days but the cottage was warm and cosy and the woodburner was great. In good weather, the outside area would be fab, with views over the village & the Aire valley. We'll definitely try and book again when we're next in Yorkshire

  For the fact that you had to vacate the property by 9 and could not arrive till 4 due to the property having a "deep clean", I was disappointed.

  There where alot of cobwebs, behind the table in the living room looked like it had not been cleaned for a long time, my socks were very dirty after just walking about for a few days. Also it states that parking is on a first come basis, but as the beauty salon which is right next to the parking for the cottage and they have a no parking sign and have no problem blocking you in if you park your car there I would not even bother to park outside the cottage. The location of the cottage is perfect and everything in Skipton is just 5 minutes walk.
