We had a three night stay in the milverton , the property was immaculately clean upon arrival along with a welcome basket which added to the initial impression, the property is well placed in the center of Grassington for local amenities and starting point for fell walking. We would recommend the property to all interested clients.

This was our 2nd time at staying at the Old Milverton, and had a very comfort stay again. Old Milverton is a lovely apartment, it as everything you need and very clean. A lovely welcome hamper was left on our arrival and treats for the dogs, both very much appreciated, thank you. It also as its own parking space which is a big plus and hidden just off the main street of Grassington. Local shops and pubs are within a couple of minutes walk from the property . We had several gorgeous meals at The Devonshire , the service and atmosphere was excellent.Old Milverton is an excellent base for local walks ie from Grassington to Hebden, Burnsall etc.Thank you again for lovely stay.
