Guests are very satisfied with the cleanliness of the property, frequently describing it as spotless and well-maintained. The high standard of cleanliness contributes significantly to the comfort and enjoyment of their stay.

The property's location is highly regarded, with guests appreciating its proximity to local amenities, pubs, and attractions. The scenic canal walks and the ease of access to Skipton and other Yorkshire Dales highlights are frequently mentioned.

Comfort is a standout feature, with guests finding the property very comfortable, mentioning the cosy atmosphere and comfortable beds. The presence of a hot tub and sauna adds to the overall comfort level.

The facilities, including the hot tub, sauna, and kitchen amenities, are generally praised. However, some guests noted a desire for additional towels, serving dishes, and glassware. The early hot tub curfew and minor maintenance issues slightly affect the score.

    We had a fantastic stay and the property provided everything we needed. We definitely made the most of the hot tub, sauna and village pubs. Great location, just under 2hrs walk along the canal into Skipton and with other great walks on your doorstep. We also visited Ingleton Waterfalls Trail, just over half an hours drive away and Malham only 20 minutes drive away. Would recommend The Masons Arms pub for Sunday roast!
