Grinton Holiday

We were two couples on a hiking holiday in Swaledale. Corner House provided a great base. The house was roomy, well located and very well equipped. Communication with the owner was excellent with a quick response.

Corner House

Property very spacious clean and tidy. Loved the area and had a super week walking, visiting local towns. Bolton Castle and NT property on rainy days very worthwhile. Felt the accommodation to be comfortable but very tired and dated in furnishings and over decorated with pictures and personal items. Tea towels need relpacing (although i always take my own) fridge freezer needs defrosting. Small niggles really. Kitchen very well equiped and it was lovely to have milk, wine and biscuits provided.

A lovely,comfortable and well equipped property in an excellent location.

I would definitely recommend this property to friends and family and hope to return for another visit. The house is in a beautiful location overlooking the church with a good pub just across the road. All the information given was accurate, useful and thorough. The sitting room was very comfortable and cosy, the kitchen well equipped and both bedrooms spacious and beautifully presented. It was great to have a second cloakroom next to the main bathroom and a very sunny garden at the front of the property. Swale dale is extremely beautiful and unspoilt and we loved exploring on foot, in the car and by using the Little White Bus. The range of local walks from Grinton and Reeth were excellent and we particularly enjoyed our walk around Kisdon taking in the villages of Muker, Thwaite and Keld. We would also recommend a trip to nearby Castle Bolton. Overall a wonderful base to explore the Yorkshire Dales and Richmond.

Our first stay in the Yorkshire Dales

We have just returned from our first holiday in the Yorkshire Dales staying at Corner House. We have fallen in love with the area and were very sad to leave. The cottage is comfortable and clean with everything a family could need (including wifi for teenagers that cannot survive without access to their social networks!), and is in an ideal situation for access to the Dales. It was lovely to be able to take our dog, a staffie cross, away with us and she loved all the walks we took her on. Being able to put her bed in our room at night was a relief, so many places won't allow a dog upstairs and we know that she would have been distressed and it would have resulted in many sleepless nights for all of us. Fremington Edge is a steep climb but well worth it for the views. The Bridge Inn, a short walk across the road, offers a warm welcome and very good food. Ensure you make a visit to St Andrew's Church, opposite Corner House, it's well worth a look around this lovely church. We certainly hope to return next year!

Het Corner House is een alleraardigst huis, met voldoende ruimte voor zeker 5 of 6 personen. De hond is ook welkom. Het huis is voorzien van 3 mooie slaapkamers,. Een fijne douche in een schone badkamer. Beneden een grote eetkamer en keuken. De woonkamer heeft een gezellig kolenvuur. Het huis ligt op een prachtige plek in de Dales.

Wonderful house and location

A wonderful house which is very comfortable, well equipped, spacious and in a great location. It even has a great pub directly opposite which is definitely worth visiting!! It is a great base for exploring Swaledale and all its superb walks, scenery, cycle routes and villages. Richmond is only 15 minutes away and it is easy to reach all the other key sights and parts of the Dales. Hosts could not have been more helpful and informative and really went out of their way to make sure it was fully Covid 19 compliant. We would highly recommend the house and hosts to anyone visiting the area.

Holiday at Corner Cottage

The listing described the property accurately. The property was clean and well maintained and we would willingly recommend the property to a friend or relative. The gentle walk into Reeth, with its attractions, was enjoyable and gave you an appetite for the good food available at the pubs in Reeth and Grinton. All in all a good holiday!

Very comfortable and well equipped cottage

We had a lovely week in Corner House. A very warm welcome awaited us after the drive up from London. The wine was very much enjoyed. Corner House is incredibly well-equipped and had everything we needed for a very relaxing break. One of the best holiday homes we have stayed in. We had some very good meals at the friendly Bridge Inn, which is just across the road from the house. Beautiful walks in the area with lots of great Inns and pubs. The wild flowers were stunning with wild garlic abundant and therefore, used when dining in! We hope to return to Corner House for another relaxing break soon

We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your recent stay in Corner House, and we thank you for your comments. We hope you will return for another holiday soon. May is a lovely month to spend a week or two in Corner House. Besides walking among the Spring flowers in the countryside, you can take advantage of the annual Swaledale Festival, which takes place during the last week of May and the first week of June. The award-winning Festival hosts many musical and other events in and around Grinton and the surrounding villages, and is a big draw for visitors to the Dale. There are other events taking place throughout the year, which we often publicise on our own website for Corner House. Last year, the big event was the Tour de France cycle race passing the front door of Corner House in July. This year, you could enjoy the Reeth Show, which will be taking place on August Bank Holiday Monday, and the exciting Fremington Fell Race that takes place on that day.

Superb accommodation!

We couldn't have been more comfortable in this lovely cottage. It is a lovely place to spend a holiday. It was clean and very well maintained and had everything we needed. The website details gave us all the information we required. We received a warm and friendly welcome on our arrival and were lucky with the weather - blue skies for most of the week. The car wasn't needed, as we were able to walk almost every day straight from the front door. The Number 30 bus, which stops just round the corner, also proved to be useful. The meals in the Bridge Inn across the road were lovely, as were those at the Buck in Reeth. We have stayed in this area several times, but this was by far our best experience in terms of accommodation and location. It is our intention to return next year!
