First floorToilet screeches for two minutes after flush, downstairs toilet constantly runs. Bins full, owner did send father to take rubbish away but an inconvenience. Initially looks good clean and tidy but, both sofas , all cushions and arms badly stained and sag. Decor is badly patched up in some areas.wallpaper edges hanging in main bedroom. The wardrobe in this room cant be used as it's full of spare mattress, bedding, chairs and has mould on the ceiling. Maintenance of the house is poor inside and out as a slate tile fell off with snow melting and damaged the car. Sykes.. 6 days 6 emails on you've not responded to a single one .

Thoughtful touch of wine and cakes provided by the host. I had explained that this was a pre Christmas get together for us and the host put a Christmas tree in the cinema room. Would highly recommend.

Thankyou to Sharon for sorting our rooms and pubs to watch our rugby team in a huge semifinal.It was also lovely to arrive to a welcome pack of prosecco and pastries.A great property for large groups, would highly reccomend the afternoon tea on the boats in Skipton.
