Limecroft was a great place to stay. On the edge of Malham village but a minutes walk to 2 pubs. The property was very good with plenty of good points. The lounge was comfy with great smart TV, the kitchen was quite well kitted out. It was unusual not to have a dining table but a breakfast bar sufficed as all we wanted to do was eat but if you needed a table for other things it's something to bear in mind. The beds were comfy. We had the en-suite bedroom which was fine and the family bathroom was right outside the other bedroom so we could have a bathroom for each bedroom. The lack of wardrobe space in both bedrooms was a bit of down point but we got by. We would stay again. Parking was tight but there was enough space to park a Volvo and Renault Captur.

A lovely dry, hot week. The cottage was very clean and well maintained. We appreciated the milk and biscuits left for us. The area is full of great walks from the doorstep. We visited the Listers most nights and returned to sit out on the upper seating ( which was rather unloved so we cleaned up the area.) The result was a perfect spot. We are in our mid 70's and to be honest this is a place for the younger and fitter but otherwise an excellent place and area.
