  We had an absolutely fabulous time away at your cottage!

  The beds were comfortable and rooms were spacious. The kitchen facilities were great, we particularly appreciated the doggie treats left upon arrival! Sitting out the back was lovely and relaxing, it was great to see the cows. We ate at The Old Swan one night and the food was lovely. The other night we ordered a Chinese takeaway from Skipton which came in good time and again, the food was lovely. The only concern we had was we couldn’t find the hairdryer (it was in the drawer in the dresser in the main bedroom which is quite neatly concealed!) that could just be us being daft, but might be worth putting either on top of the dresser or in the wardrobe as the drawer isn’t easily spotted. The location is amazing, only a short walk into Gargrave. We didn’t want to go home and have said this is our new ‘go to place’ if ever we want a break! Can’t fault our stay, 10/10!

  Yes - previous guests comments would be enlightening. Why is it not possible to comment directly on your web site? My comments in summary The accommodation is lovely, the outside space is not dog secure, because it is shared with the owner that lives in the adjoining property. The external lighting for the car park area was non functioning . It's November, dark and raining, and the steps are 3 and a half - so the last step is irregular - just right for tripping up in the dark. The dishwasher not working seems to be a recurring problem. The little notes telling you what to do are rather "school teacher" Finally, the note to strip the bed on your exit - for safety reasons, I guess covid? is now just wrong. we have stayed in many venues and never been asked to strip the beds.

  T'Lasses Cottage provided everything we needed for our stay. The beds are very comfortable and the showers excellent. The property was spotlessly clean throughout on arrival. The owners, who live nearby, provided plenty of useful information about the property, surrounding area and attractions. The cottage is set in a quiet hamlet, close to the canal and and an excellent pub. We'd recommend turning left out of the close and using the path (about 100yds) down to the canal to avoid walking along a narrow road with no footpath. It's also a nice walk. The cottage is well positioned for visiting many sights in and around the Yorkshire Dales without having to go too far. We had a wonderful 2 weeks and would love to return in the future.
