Lovely property in the perfect location for us, with wide open views but within easy walking distance to a pub and village tea room. Great dales and river walks in all directions direct from the property. We will definately want to stay here again. Lots to see and do in the local area with stunning scenery

Really loved the cottage, the sound of the river and the peace and quiet. Lovely cosy cottage. Great location. Host really helpful and quick to respond. given the cost of a 2 night stay, more than half a roll of loo roll would have been appreciated! Also there was no salt.
