The cottage was great, spacious and exactly as described. The issue for us is that when we got in it was so so cold like a fridge, and it look the whole night to feel warm. I think it would be great if the owners could put the heating on with enough time in advance - my mother is elderly and disabled so it was an issue. There were no batteries in any of the remotes - again, whilst we were mostly out walking my mother spent more time inside. Overall though, the cottage was really well equipped with comfortable beds. Great having 2 fridges and the small room for muddy boots and coats!

Excellent deal and value for money, perfect place for family get together. very dog friendly, lovely to have 2 en-suites and a bathroom and 3 twin rooms and a double to suit family needs (lots of adult grandchildren!). Warm and comfortable even in the winter. Beautiful area and setting. Easy check in, good communications and instructions. Would recommend to friends and stay again if we plan another Yorkshire holiday.
