Guests that stayed at this property said
The property generally receives high marks for cleanliness, with guests finding it well-maintained. However, there were isolated comments about dishes not being clean and the presence of cobwebs and dog hairs, suggesting room for improvement.
The location is highly praised for its stunning views, easy access to walks, and proximity to the village centre. It is considered ideal for exploring the countryside and enjoying local amenities.
Guests find the property comfortable and homely, with a few remarks about low seating and less comfortable beds in the single rooms. The majority of guests were very satisfied with the comfort provided.
The cottage is well-equipped and guests are pleased with the facilities, though some noted that certain items could be updated or added, such as a larger fridge and a sunshade in the garden.
While guests have mentioned welcome gifts such as tea, coffee, milk, and biscuits, there is not enough consistent information about the provision of gifts to accurately score thoughtfulness. It should be noted that such gifts, while appreciated, are not guaranteed.

Lovely house in a fantastic location with wonderful views over the River Wharfe. Could have spent hours looking at the view, and watching the abundance of wildlife make its way up and down the valley, if it wasn't for the kids. Found some great walks from the house and loved just pottering around Grassington with all of its local shops and cafes.

It is so close to the river and the little village of Grassington so ideal for some of our party who cannot walk very far. Would really recommend this cottage for other people- comfortable, spacious and just right for a week's stay
