Excellent cottage in a great location with lovely views across the dales.

Excellent cottage in a great location with lovely views across the dales. Had everything we needed to have a fantastic weekend break. Fixtures and fittings are to a high standard, with quality products provided throughout. Hot tub in the courtyard was great. Ideal place for dogs both in the cottage and the fenced paddock. Communications with host very good. Would love to return in the future.
