  Overall impression upon arrival was excellent ,secure gated entry into the park .

  Lodge looked lovely ,well presented with parking along side .upon entry we were reminded once again of the pets policy for our 4 legged friend ,pet friendly is an overstatement , pet tolerant would would be a better description.nothing was provided which we have been accustomed to at other places we have stayed ( dog bowl ,blanket ,dog treats etc ) ,I know we were advised to bring everything for our dog beforehand ,which we did ,but its the little touches which mean a lot . The pets policy also threatens that you would be leave the site if your dog was found seeing on the grass ,we had to exercise our little dog on the road outside the site ,which has no footpath , not ideal with the amount of farm traffic using this narrow road . we were also concerned upon arrival of a guy spraying weed killer on the grass and gravelled areas around the lodges , although he did say it was ''pet-friendly ''. The layout of the lodge was great , all on one level which was a bonus .the inclusion of a washing machine and tumble drier was a great help with the wet weather we experienced ,the dishwasher and the cafetiere were a big help also . plenty of crockery and adequate pots and pans were available ,the only comment I would make is there was only 3 large spoons for cereals ,soup etc . The sofas were nice but uncomfortable ,no back support and the zip -together king size bed was also uncomfortable ,luckily we were able to move to the much more comfortable double bed in the other bedroom . the overall cleanliness was okay but we discovered all sorts of hair and grit under the sofas and under the cushions ,which we hoovered ourselves. we did appreciate a change of bedding and towels after our first week in residence though , which was nice. The major gripe however was the lack of WIFI ,although it was not advertised as having this facility ,its something that we expected this day and age in a luxury accommodation ,its something the owners may wish to consider if the technology is available in the area. we went to the local pub in the village to use their free WIFI ,and enjoy a good pint ! Overall ,if you don't have a dog and don't mind the lack of WIFI ,this lodge is ideal for you ,plenty of space for 4 people ,and a nice outside seating area when the weather is fine .The village of Gargrave is nice ,a bit of a walk ,but everywhere is within walking distance ,it just depends how dedicated you are

  First impressions were very good.

  Very clean inside the chalet, lovely position of the chalet overlooking the river and not overlooked. Plenty of utensils and crockery, a lovely utility room with washer & dryer. Nicely furnished living area and bedroom were of a good size. For us, the Sofas were a little uncomfortable as they were much softer than we are use to. There was a lovely seating area with table chairs and parasol on the decking outside. The site so very quiet, secure & peaceful. Some amazing walks within easy walking distance and situated a short walk away from the village with its quaint tea rooms and pubs. There were however a few tiny details that held me back from giving this property an excellent review and these would be easily rectified. The annoying toilet roll holder in the main bathroom is very loose and about to fall off. We tried to tighten it up but were not successful so it would just need replacing. It rained heavily one day and we found that the rain was coming in very slightly through the velux window so we had to place a towel on the floor to soak it up. The freezer drawers were all stuck and 2 of them broken. There was a drawer full of ice creams & lollies when we arrived that someone had left in there however the drawers were broken so we couldn’t remove the products so no idea how long they had been in there. The cleaner should have emptied these out before our arrival but perhaps she could get the drawers open either. There were two can openers with the utensils but neither of them worked, again a minor detail but easily resolved by replacing. The worst thing was, that although the inside of the chalet was immaculately clean the outside needed a brushing down and cleaning as it was full of cobwebs under the eaves and around the doorways. Just small easily rectified things however there was more things that were good about this place that it would not stop us from booking again.

  First impressions were “Wow!

  ” This place is amazing and even better than the photos. The gardens are perfect for strolling around and playing with the dogs. Farm animals all around which was lovely and the sound of running water from the beck adjoining the lodge. Inside, absolutely loved the decor, beautiful pictures and hangings on walls and high standard of charming furnishings. Not usually such high quality in rentals. Hot tub was fab. A welcome card, bottle of Prosecco and my favourite chocs just topped it off! Had a text off Andra to say the lodge was ready for us half an hour earlier which was really helpful and communication with our hosts was very good. The only thing negative about our week’s stay was the gas company was working with pneumatic drills at the Holiday Park just across the beck from 9am each weekday, but of course this was totally unforeseeable and out of the control of our hosts and did not stop us from loving this place. We had a wonderful relaxing and fun time here and would like to thank Andra and Chris for such a beautiful place for us to experience and would really like to return.

  Fox Cottage is set in a peaceful and beautiful location yet within short car journey to a lovely village pub and shops in Settle. It's simple structure blends well into the hillside and the open plan interior is both stylish and comfortable. Light streams in through the large patio windows and the views are amazing. A curious hare came up on the patio to gaze in at us on the first evening.The kitchen area was fully equipped with good quality appliances, tools, spices, washing machine and dishwasher tablets etc. The second bedroom was able to be made up into a twin bedded room. We didn't use the outside gas B B Q, but it looked very impressive. Plenty of outdoor seating to relax on. Toweling robes were provided for the hot tub and sauna, both of which were amazing. An outside dog shower and towel was by the front door.. The weather was great but even had not been, there are board games, books, television, wifi etc. and Fox Cottage itself helped to make our holiday so special, we had a lovely time.

  We've just returned from a 4 night break at the Cedar cabin, family of 4 (kids aged 2 and 5).

  They loved the little play area and just the vast area they had to run around, it felt very safe for them. The cabin itself is nice and cosy but feel it needs a little updating, and a good clean! There was a lot of dust on top of the doors and down the sides of the bed, and the bed sheets had a few marks on them. We stayed in the double room, the bed wasn't the comfiest and there was only one pillow each. Also, my partner is 6'4 so couldn't stretch out because of the panel at the end of the bed. My son (5) slept in the twin beds pushed together and our daughter was in the travel cot that was provided. They both slept absolutely fine. It stated on the ad that there was a BBQ but we never found it. I'm sure if we'd asked for one though, it would have been provided. There was plenty to do within a short distance of the site, our favourite was Morecombe seaside town which the kids loved and was only a 35 minute drive away. We would definitely return back to Pinecroft in the future!
