Guests say
Kestrel View is highly praised for its fantastic location, cleanliness, and friendly staff. Guests enjoyed the proximity to Skipton, scenic walks, and on-site amenities like the golf course and bar. The property is well-equipped for self-catering, though some mentioned limited fridge space. A few minor maintenance issues were noted, but overall, the accommodation provided a comfortable and enjoyable stay, with some guests receiving complimentary items upon arrival.
Guests consistently mentioned that the property was clean and welcoming. One review noted stained chairs, but this seems to be an isolated comment rather than a common concern.
The location is frequently highlighted as excellent, with its close proximity to Skipton, beautiful walks, and the convenience of being situated on a golf course, making it ideal for visitors.
The property is generally found to be comfortable with adequate space, though one review mentioned that the settee was not comfortable and another indicated that space was slightly tight in rooms other than the master.
Facilities are well-regarded, with the property being well-equipped for self-catering. However, some guests mentioned issues such as limited fridge and freezer space, and a recommendation to improve the WiFi router.
While some guests mentioned receiving complimentary items like bread, cake, and milk, these instances are not consistent across all reviews. As such, it cannot be guaranteed that such gifts are a standard offering for all stays.

Kestrel View was perfect for our needs and in a great location. Lovely 30 minutes walk through Skipton Woods into Skipton.Each room had a TV, plus one in the lounge.The only negative was that we had a weeks worth of food for four people and really needed more fridge and freezer space, but we coped. The kitchen was otherwise well equipped for real cooking, ie more than reheating pre-cooked food.
