    The cottage was absolutely immaculate and both Julie and Nigel were lovely hosts. We would have no hesitation in recommending this property to our friends and relatives and look forward to revisiting ourselves. Having a great place to stay is the very foundation of a great holiday and Bracken certainly is a great place to stay.

    The cottage was lovely, very well equipped and beautifully furnished. The owners, Julie and Nigel were very friendly and helpful. We had a lovely week exploring North Yorkshire and would definitely stay again next time we're in Yorkshire.
