What our customers say about their holidays

  Property has lovely views from the sitting room, bedroom and garden, and is nicely furnished (especially for somewhere that accepts dogs).

  Comfortable bed, and good water pressure for the showers. (This property does not provide bath towels, so don't forget to pack your own.) There was plenty of crockery and the kitchen seemed well equipped. We enjoyed the log fire, the "starter" logs provided were enough for 3 evenings. It is a short walk up into the village centre, or to get onto the Dales Way footpath. Grassington itself is lovely, lots of good places to eat and some interesting shops. Some of the plates in the cupboard had crumbs on them, and some of the ramekins had also been put away without being properly cleaned, so we did put a lot of crockery through the dishwasher before using it. I think this would have been done by the people staying immediately before us, and as the dishes were in the cupboard the cleaner could not have noticed. Possibly if the "house" instructions were to run the dishwasher and / or hand wash any dishes, but to leave them in the dishwasher / drainer at the end of the stay this would be less likely to happen? We would very happily stay at this house again next time we are in Grassington.

  The cottage is lovely, comfortable and well equipped including excellent wi-fi (though the dryer part of the washer-dryer doesn't work). Burnsall is normally a delightful and tranquil location, its inhabitants are friendly and it is a great place from which to explore a beautiful and interesting area. But on hot days the whole of the surrounding area descends on Burnsall and its river and because the cottage is so central you cannot avoid the feeling that your peace has been disrupted. There are cars everywhere and if you look out of the window you can see lots and lots of people. If you open the window you hear lots of noise sometimes quite late into the night. Local volunteers clear up the appalling rubbish people leave behind them. In conclusion this should have been a five star review. But on warm/hot days in summer the cottage doesn't live up to its description as a rural retreat. So best to come in spring or autumn and you will have a wonderful holiday.

  The house was clean and very comfortable in a lovely location with great walks right from the house. Our week was just after the schools went back but we hadn't realised how busy Burnsall was especially at the weekends. The number of TV channels was somewhat limited unless you brought your own Sky card which we weren't told about beforehand. What was more disappointing was that the field behind the property was open as a car park by the farmer with cars and pedestrians walking past the house and we were unable to use the "patio" tables and chairs which were right on the edge of the lane. The farmer who allows parking in his field instructed us to park under the ash tree (not oak!) but didn't mention that birds roost in that tree at night and the car was covered with excrement in the morning with no outside tap to use to clean it off. Apart from these points, we had a lovely week walking by the river with some great pubs nearby.

  Property as advertised.

  2 large sitting rooms one with log fire. Stunning views down to River Wharf and over fields. Very well equipped kitchen. Space for 2 cars to side of house although on a bend and care needed to reverse on drive. Found more car parking over bridge and first right for third car. FAntastic location. 3/4 Min stroll up to village 3 pubs, a bar, coffee shops, bakers and small local food shop. Pubs good food and excellent range of real ales. Black horse hotel does good meal offers before 6pm. 2 courses a pint for £20 Fountain Inn in Linton also very nice Superb walks from doorstep along river either way. 10 mins to Linton falls... Ingleton Falls a 50 min drive but fantastic walk taking in waterfalls (£10 entry for adults) 4.5 mile walk but a lot of steps up and down involved Would definitely visit again.

  Bridge End is a beautiful property in a superb location.

  It was ideal for a family week away with plenty of space for 6 adults and two children to relax and brilliant facilities. The family really enjoy the garden and the walks that were easily accessed from the bottom of the garden. Unfortunately I was unable to join them as I have MS and need to use a disability scooter. I enjoyed the fact that I could access the amenities in the village with the presence of dropped kerbs and step free shops - not something you find in every village. Personally speaking, the only improvement that I could think to suggest would be seating that is not so low - very difficult for me to get up from - and a possible bed settee on the ground floor for when I can no longer manage the stairs. All in all a very comfortable family holiday with plenty to see and do in the the area.
