  This is a marvellous place with a beautiful view and river flowing alongside the property.

  The flat is in a shared building with other flats, but you don't hear a thing from your neighbours, apart from the odd thud of someone walking on the floor above, or going up some stairs - not a bother though. despite being a "flat", it was extremely spacious and very well maintained in terms of cleanliness and content. The dining table was lovely to eat at, looking out the window at the sheep and odd passer-by on the Pennine way, on the opposite of the river. The bathrooms are great (underfloor heating, warm towel rails, and powerful showers that maintained their water temperature!) - we only used one bathroom seeing as only the two of us stayed there. The bed was comfy and the sofa in the living area was nice to snuggle up on and read or watch something, using the proliferation of tech options the entertainment system offered - bring your Netflix and Prime account details, or just plug a laptop into the spare TV HDMI like we did because the Wi-Fi was very good in the cottage. Phone signal isn't great in the area, but you can set your phone to WiFi-calling to improve things if you need to make a call. We would definitely recommend this place and there are so many attractions and areas of interest to explore, either right out your front door or within an hour's drive. Top marks!!

  The good: - Great location for Malham and the Pennine Way - Lots of space in living areas and two of the bedrooms - Clean The bad: - Lacking some basics (scissors in the kitchen; saucepans big enough to cook basics for 4) - Very small and compromised bathrooms - In poor state of repair in places (large glass shower door held on with silicone, and fell off; bad smell from drains; TVs in bedrooms not working) - Layout of outdoor space leads to a total lack of privacy in garden (which is shared with the neighbouring cottage). For example, the Hot Tub is placed just a few feet from the one belonging to the neighbouring cottage, meaning no privacy if the neighbours use theirs at the same time. (Especially so if you have neighbours who spend their time smoking, drinking, swearing, shouting and arguing in the hot tub!) We eventually cut our stay short and came home a day early. The owner did offer a partial refund, reflecting some of these issues, but this has never materialised and he has since stopped answering messages asking him to honour his promises.

  We very much enjoyed our stay at Riverside Walk.

  The apartment is comfortable, clean and well equipped. Sofa cushions had been removed we assumed, due to COVID, so we used the pillows instead. We loved the history of the place and were particularly taken with the old type-writer especially, as one half of the party was a previous typist! We managed to dodge most of the showers but be prepared, the Dales do have their fair share of rain. We enjoyed a walk by the river, visiting the towns of Skipton and Settle. There are a good choice of places to eat and drink. As artists, we were beyond delight to find ‘The Art Shop’ in Skipton. We sketched Malham Cove in a blustery north east wind but didn’t venture up the path to the top of the cove. Beautiful area with the river as a constant and a place to return in the future.

  Location was beautiful, with great views and lots of local walks. It is remote, so a car is required for days out, and the local roads are often single track with passing places. The accommodation was a bit cramped for five adults. Three bath / shower rooms have been squeezed in, but the layouts are poor. One shower room is tiny, and to get to the basin in the main bathroom you have to squeeze through a gap between the bath and the toilet. Small changes would make a difference such as bins and mirrors in each of the bedrooms. Kitchen was well equipped, but we did have issues with the microwave (blew up and had to be replaced!) and the electricity tripping and being unable to find the fuse box. We added a note to the info folder for future holiday makers.

  We loved Squint Cottage from the moment we entered.

  The living room so cosy even though we didn't need the fire. The kitchen was well equipped, could almost say over equipped, but disappointed nowhere to put the food we brought with us. We managed though, just put it on the counter. The bathroom was lovely too and the towels so big and soft....just what you want when you get out of the shower. The bed was okay for us but some might think too soft. Could do with a chest of drawers or similar to put clothes. I just put them all at the bottom of the wardrobe. The wardrobe was the only problem as it was stiff to open and the handles came off every time. I just left it slightly open all the time. That hasn't put us off though as hope to book it again next year.
