  Our second stay at Silver Fern and again we have no complaints (other than we had to leave!). A real home from home. Absolutely adore this cottage - everything you could possibly need and the location is fabulous - plenty of shops, pubs and restaurants on the square all within walking distance and best of all The Shawl mere footsteps away with the most spectacular views. Great local store a few steps away with everything you could need. Forgot our dog’s bowls and were delighted to find food and water bowls under the sink - great! Would move into this cottage tomorrow if I could! Sympathetically decorated - homely, cosy. Everything you need is there. We’re not usually ones to return, as we like to try different places, but this cottage is a real treasure, hence our second visit and we hope to come back again. Loads to do in the surrounding areas and plenty of choices for eating out in Leyburn. Thoroughly recommend this cottage.

  We had a really pleasant stay at this property.

  There were a few things however that did slightly affect our overall rating. The Bannister railings upstairs on the right were loose.That was a safety concern for us as we had to be careful not to hold onto a certain part of it .Particularly as we had a child. The upstairs bedroom windows didn't have any blinds or net curtains so the house opposite could see right in .This again was a privacy and modesty concern. The bath was not very deep therefore slightly uncomfortable in the bathroom . The small stool seat in the main bedroom near the dressing table was broken so you couldn't sit on it properly . The WiFi was unfortunately not a good coverage.We couldn't watch catch up TV properly or it would buffer alot whilst loading. These are all things that could be easily addressed though .We enjoyed our stay and the facilities overall were good. It was a cottage full of character in a beautiful area.

  Truly amazing property to stay. Lovely and remote, in a tiny hamlet within the farm. Views up the hill out of the front awarded us the delight of watching a barn owl some evenings. The dark starry sky at night was beautiful. The back garden was also a great place to sit and relax after a day of walking. The cottage itself was very comfortable and well equipped. Small bathroom but that wasn’t an issue for us. Large bedroom with comfortable bed. Sofa in lounge one of the nicest we’ve had for collapsing into. The local area gave us some great walking. A few miles away was Hawes with its great selection of little shops and pubs. Like everywhere in the Dales, so pretty. Would happily come back here again both for the cottage and this beautiful part of the country.

  Our second visit to this lovely cottage.

  Thanks to Kate the owner for lovely gift basket and especially for the generous £30 gift behind the bar at Richard 3rd pub for being return guests. It was really unexpected and we had a great meal. The cottage is a great base to visit the area. I stayed again with my now 5 year old granddaughter, who stated she wanted to live here. It was great for a day out at the Forbidden Corner, just 5 minutes up the road. We also had a day out at Lightwater Valley just over half an hour away. Baymor ice cream parlour was only about 6 minutes away and had great play areas. Looking forward to returning again next year

  We had a lovely stay at this cottage for a week.

  The cottage was as described and Kate the owner got in touch before our stay to advise of different attractions, eateries etc. we were very lucky with the weather during our stay and so viruses the cottage as a base to visit Newby Hall, web adventure park, Brymoor ice cream parlour, forbidden corner and Jervaulx Abbey. We also dined in the local pub and enjoyed the fish and chip shop. The village is small and quaint and the locals all friendly. There is also a lovely little park nearby. We had a lovely stay and would recommend to family and friends!
