Nice beds, well functioning kitchen. Only slight issue was the shower tray was slow at draining but this was easily worked around.

It is so restful if that is what you want, although you can go to quite a number of places of interests within a few miles from the cottage. Everything is provided for you in the cottage we are always welcomed when we arrive. We highly recommend the accommodation to anyone

Walking distance to beautiful Skipton. The garage wich was connected through a door with the kitchen, had a terrible smell that had to be kept out by keeping the door shut. The region is beautiful for hiking. Fantastic landscapes.
