Claire was a wonderful host, nothing was too much trouble and her communication throughout was outstanding. The house itself has everything you could possibly need, especially as a parent of two small children; games, puzzles, play area, baby equipment, stair gates, plastic plates and cups etc. Most importantly the beds are extremely comfortable! The welcome pack was just divine with the most delicious eggs from their hens and a lemon drizzle cake. I particularly appreciated that she had left enough individual bags of filter coffee for the SMEG coffee machine for the days we had booked so no running out of essential caffeine! Another plus is having hot tub towels available as well as plenty dishwasher tabs, laundry tabs and loo roll, so no need to pack extra. We will definitely book another break at Holme House soon!

Holme house is an amazing place to stay. The cottage is well equipped and was spotless when we arrived. Our welcome was great, where we arrived in the evening and the cottage was lovely and warm and well lit and the owner greeted us personally on arrival too which was great. We were also sent lots of helpful information prior to our stay too which was really useful. The owner also provided a fantastic welcome pack, and had put some birthday bunting up for our son which was a lovely touch. The views from the cottage are spectacular and the area is quiet and peaceful. The garden was brilliant for our boisterous boys to work off their energy in! We enjoyed lots of adventures in the locality including visits to Malham Cove and Ingleborough cave. We enjoyed our holiday so much that we have booked to return next year. I would definitely recommend a stay in this cottage!
