The cottage was clean, on a quiet housing estate and suited the two of us perfectly. Only a short drive into Skipton, if you're fitter than us you can walk there. One thing to note, if you prefer eating in the cottage, there's nearly 40 places that deliver food via the JustEat app.

My husband especially is comfortable with the higher chairs and bed. Apart from a dishwasher all facilities are good. For the future a slightly higher toilet would be good for comfort. We love staying there, in fact we've booked for next year already.
