This charming community, Cross Hills, is located on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, just a picturesque car ride from the bustling city of Leeds and the world-famous village of Haworth. The hamlet features a bustling centre with stores, cafés, and other eateries, as well as a variety of small businesses offering everything you might possibly need during your stay in Yorkshire. Skipton, known as the "Gateway to the Dales," is a little further out and gives the chance to visit an 11th century castle, old woodlands, and winding alleyways filled with excellent amenities. The town of Keighley, in the opposite direction, is home to the heritage steam line made famous by the 1970s film 'The Railway Children.'

It would be more useful prior, to booking the property, to know that wi-fi was 'country wi-fi' (i.e. almost non-existent) and the sanitary system was very fragile. Even the TV took 2 days adjustment to find the only position for the internal aerial where you could get a picture for a very limited list of channels. If this was all made clear prior to booking we'd have a better idea what to expect.

Badger is the last cottage in the row, so it's got very sketchy reception. I would recommend adding another repeater to your network and that would resolve any problems.

everything about the place was perfect, the Pod had everything we needed, the location was quiet and the farm animals and local wildlife were wonderful. A great base for exploring Yorkshire in all directions. Nina & Phil are really good hosts and the welcome pack (milk, cakes and wine) were a really nice touch. P.S. Phil, you were right on closer inspection of the photos, they were Black Sheep we saw and not the Black Pigs in the lower field, but in my defence it was dark! Ha ha!
