The charming character and welcoming atmosphere of the house contribute to a delightful stay.

Guests that stayed at this property said

Guests consistently mention the property being 'spotlessly clean' and 'very well equipped', indicating high standards of cleanliness throughout the house.

The property's location is frequently described as perfect, with easy access to the town centre, supermarkets, and local attractions, making it an ideal base for exploring.

Numerous reviews highlight the comfortable furnishings, ample space, and cosy atmosphere, particularly praising the well-appointed bedrooms and multiple bathrooms.

Facilities are generally well-received, with a well-equipped kitchen and ample dining space. However, some minor issues with Wi-Fi and kitchenware sharpness slightly affect the score.

While the reviews reflect a positive experience, there is no specific mention of gifts or extra thoughtful touches provided by the host, so a score cannot be given.

  • Carla

    Perfect location close to the centre of Skipton with Tesco a 2 min walk away and loads of good pubs and the castle nearby” “ a wonderfully set up and equipped house in a fantastic location right between a supermarket and the pub filled town centre" “ Fantastic house, clean & well equipped, in a great location, comfy beds, plenty of seating and a kitchen to make most cooks jealous!” "A lovely, cosy house - perfect for groups looking for sociable spaces. Good layout and well equipped. Easy walking distance to town and very close to supermarket. Lots of steps/stairs and no designated parking so might not be suitable for anyone with reduced mobility but as long as that's not an issue, I would definitely recommend this house."

  • Jacqui

    very spacious property. It was warm, clean well equipped and we enjoyed our stay and will use it again

  • Tamsin

    Perfectly convenient to get around Skipton easily. Clean and tidy with plenty of equipment in the kitchen. We enjoyed the courtyard garden. It is a little tired and there is a bit of road noise but absolutely nothing to complain about.
