Lovely cottage

We really enjoyed our stay. The place is clean and quiet. Beds are comfortable. It was quick and easy to reach out for help. Garden could do with a bit of TLC, but…we didn’t spend much time there. Would come again.

Many thanks for taking the time to write a review. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay and found the cottage clean and quiet. Sorry if the garden looked a bit unkempt..due to all the wet weather it has been difficult to keep on top of it.

Lovely cottage

Beautiful cottage absolutely immaculately clean! Opposite a lovely pub! No noise but great food and a cafe deli that had we been there in April onwards had a lovely garden where they do wood fired pizza evenings. Lots to see and do round about! Very highly recommend by us - and frankly I’m very hard to please!

Fabulous Holiday Home

The cottage is fabulous. Everything you need from a holiday home. All new and clean and everything worked! Great communications with Joanne, nothing too much trouble. The cottage is in a lovely village just outside Harrogate. We had a lovely breakfast at Sophie's teashop on Sunday morning. There is also a village shop. Highly recommend as a base for exploring the surrounding areas.

A Real Gem in North Yorkshire

We stayed a month this summer (2024) at Bankside Cottage to really get immersed in the Yorkshire Dales lifestyle. The cool climate was a perfect summer relief from our home in hot and humid Florida. The village of Hampsthwaite was the perfect distance outside of busy Harrogate. Very peaceful with friendly and helpful locals, a good pub, cafe and convenience store. Ten minutes into Harrogate and we had all the major grocery chains to choose from. As well as numerous great restaurants. There were also great pubs and inns tucked away in surrounding villages within 10-15 minutes drive. Just 45 minutes into York. In 2 hours drive we were in Liverpool, the Lake District or towns along the NorthSea coast. Numerous great scenic attractions and walks close by such as Brimham Rocks, Fountain Abbey and Bolton Abbey. The cottage itself was perfect for our family of three. Hosts Joanne and Nick were friendly and very attentive to our needs offering periodic cleaning which we usually kept up with ourselves. WiFi worked great and cable TV allowed us to catch the opening ceremonies of the Olympics in Paris. Washer/dryer combo unit allowed us to keep up with our laundry needs. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils, dishes and cookware. We highly recommend this cottage and village to others and would definitely return.
