  This is a fantastic cottage! We were three adults and a dog and we had plenty of space. The garden is huge, with lots of seating and there is a barbecue. Views from every window. Location is stunning. We stayed in April and there were curlews, lapwings and oystercatchers everywhere! Lots of options for walking (with or without getting in the car), whether you want a gentle potter or a full day fell walking. The kitchen is the most well-equipped I have ever seen. There is no conventional cooker - instead there is an aga, two air fryers and a portable hob. Cooking on the aga was a lot of fun, but it does lose it's heat in the evening so forward planning is required! The parking instructions mentioned a garage - don't be fooled by the outbuilding to the left of the property - the real garage has been demolished but there is a parking bay on the right hand side of the front door.

  We spent a wonderful few days at Thornsgill Cottage last week. It was such a cosy, relaxing ‘home from home’, with all that we needed for a great stay. We were also impressed by how clean and tidy it was on arrival. The cottage was very dog-friendly, with great walks literally just on the doorstep. There was also a lockable garage for bikes and a utility room for drying clothes after a walk. The cottage was very well located in the beautiful village of Askrigg. We were within easy walking distance (only a few minutes) of a well-stocked village shop, the BakeWell cafe (which sold delicious cakes, pies and also easy suppers to cook at home too) and three great pubs. Dinner at the King’s Arms was a particular highlight, with roast lamb from a farm just down the road and a host of other locally sourced ingredients. All in all, a fabulous stay. We’ll be back!

  I have been a repeat visitor to the gorgeous Thornsgill Cottage. The log burner makes it cosy in winter, just perfect for retreating to a comfy sofa with a large glass of wine after a long walk in the hills. It has everything you need if you want to cook but frankly it would be a shame to miss out on the wonderful local pubs which are only a hop, skip and a jump away. It’s also been brilliant to be able to bring my dog to the cottage - the only downside to this is you then have absolutely no excuse not get get up and get out onto the hills - a hard prospect to contemplate when tucked up all snug in one of the extremely comfortable beds.

• The Bott family - Easter 2017 - Verified booking

  We stayed as 2 families and a dog at Thornsgill Cottage for Easter and had the most wonderful and cosy time, walking, chilling and entertaining ourselves in the close-by pubs of Askrigg. The cottage itself is perfectly equipped with everything you could wish for in a Yorkshire retreat. It’s warm, loads of hot water, an awesome real fire and very comfortable bedrooms - You really can kick back and switch off here. We did some fantastic walking by the river or up on the hills, with great pubs in nearby villages to use as destinations or fuel stops Fantastic stay, we’ll be back there in a heartbeat.

• Lynne and Simon Moore and family (and Nutmeg the dog) - October 2016 - Verified booking

  We have stayed at Thornsgill Cottage many times and our stay is never long enough. The cottage itself is warm, cosy and comfortable, ideal for us to return to with the dogs after a long day out walking in the spectacular scenery of the Yorkshire Dales. The lock up garage enables us to store our bikes safely so that we can enjoy cycling too. The village of Askrigg is friendly and has everything we’ve needed - a shop, a cake shop - and several great pubs of course. We will definitely be back!
