Delightful accomodation in a beautiful location

Our first impression as we opended the door was WOW! Such a treat to be able to stay in an old wheel house. The decor, furnishing and little touches are high end. There is absolutely nothing I can fault with it. It's set in a beautiful location with amenties i.e. a pub close by in a pretty quiet little village. I'd loved to return one day. Thank you for sharing your property with us.

A Wonderful Return Visit

This is our fourth stay at the Old Wheelhouse. It feels like coming home. The flat is cozy and well appointed. The village is lovely and the falls are stunning. We look forward to the next visit.

Ideal for walking

This is an excellent property located near a local waterfall. A good place for walking. However, finding things under cover when it rains means long car trips.

Wonderful Holiday

This was our third stay at the Old Wheelhouse. We always enjoy our visits. The falls are gorgeous and the village so lovely and welcoming. The Old Wheelhouse is wonderfully restored. A cozy and comfortable retreat. We enjoyed Bonfire Night and were pleasantly surprised at how quiet the flat was with a crowd still on the village green.

Clean, comfortable and well equipped apartment

The apartment is excellent - incredibly clean, a great location right next to the waterfall, and it has everything you need for a great stay. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen is well equipped, the bathroom very functional and clean, and there is a really nice small patio area at the front of the property. West Burton itself is a picture postcard village and a great base for walks of varying difficulties. We had some superb weather and enjoyed our stay. Would definitely return, and would recommend Country Hideaways.

Delightful place to stay

We have used Country Hideaways for several years and have always found them to be friendly and helpful. We love West Burton finding it both a beautiful location to enjoy in itself with great walks from the village in the surrounding area, as well as a base to explore the area further. The Wheelhouse apartment is clean, comfortable and very well presented with lovely outlooks from each window. We also enjoy sitting on the porch facing the falls and chatting to passers by. The village shop and butchers are both well stocked and helpful.

8/10 Good

Overall a comfortable apartment in a unique location

Overall, very comfortable. Unfortunately no hot water or heating on last morning. Provision of basic condiments would have been nice eg sugar, tea, coffee. Stay spoilt by raucous party in adjoining apartment at the weekend. No consideration shown by the party for their neighbours.
Response from VrboOwner on 5 Jan 2024
Thank you so much for leaving your review for The Old Wheelhouse in West Burton. Firstly we were so sorry to hear the boiler had failed on your last morning. the heating engineer has now been summoned. More concerning though was the noise from the adjoining apartment, we have reported this to the property owner of The Old Wheelhouse who will contact the property owner of the property concerned. The lack of basic condiments has also been mentioned. Good to hear though that you felt the apartment was comfortable and in a unique location. We do hope though that your experience at The Old Wheelhouse will not deter you from visiting the Yorkshire Dales many times in the future. Nadine
