Guests that stayed at this property said

Reviews consistently mention the cottage being spotlessly clean, indicating high standards of cleanliness that guests are very satisfied with.

The location is frequently described as superb, great for walking and close to local amenities. Some confusion with directions and parking slightly affects the score.

Guests find the cottage comfortable, with special mentions of decorative touches and a cosy atmosphere. However, some noted it might be cramped for four adults, impacting the comfort score.

The property is well-equipped with many positive comments on the facilities provided. Some issues with heating and the lack of an extractor fan in the bathroom are noted.

Guests appreciate the thoughtful extras like beer/wine and umbrellas, although it's noted that such gifts are a kind gesture and not guaranteed for every stay.

About this property

A striking stone-built cottage resting in the popular Yorkshire Dales village of Grassington. Town Head Cottage is a lovely two-bedroom property welcoming families, friends and couples for a wonderful break in this ever popular area. The cosy and romantic cottage has been lovingly restored whilst keeping its charm and character and is just a short walk to the famous village centre, with its old curiosity shops, excellent local pubs, good eating establishments and of course, the old cobbled square where the monthly farmers market selling the finest fresh produce and the annual Dickensian weekends can be found. Add this to the annual Grassington Festival and the close proximity of many of the famous Dales attractions, Town Head Cottage offers you a fantastic break in a superb location. Make yourself at home in the charming sitting room, with its exposed stone work, wooden beams, as well as a lovely window seat. Put your feet up in front of the wood burning stove, give Alexa a shout for your favourite tunes or simply switch on the impressive Smart TV that is accompanied with full Sky Sports and Movie channels, perfect to relax and unwind your way. Move into the country style kitchen/diner where you can rustle up a home cooked meal with the electric oven and hob, with more rustic stone work as a backdrop and discover a vast selection of appliances including a Tassimo coffee machine. When you can just about tear yourself away from this delightful dwelling, be sure to grab your waking boots as the area is filled with an abundance of unspoilt landscapes just waiting to be explored. 20 meters from the front door you can jump on the Dales Way and head North bringing you to the charming village of Kettlewell and the peak Great Whernside. The area is a walkers paradise, with beautiful walks along the river Wharfe to Linton Falls and onto the beautiful Burnsall, as well as more challenging walks up on the fells.

For fun for the whole family head to Kilnsey Park for a little fishing or swing through the woodland at Treetop Nets. An outstanding all round holiday cottage, not to be missed!

Grassington is a charming village resting in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, resting alongside the River Wharfe. A lovely farmers market takes place every month boasting excellent fresh and local produce, with a collection of shops in the village too and some pubs, you have all you need for an excellent stay in the Dales. Explore the Grass Woods, visit Linton Falls, and venture further into the park via the Dales Way.

    Spotlessly clean. Beds extremely comfortable. Log burner a real treat, only enough wood for a couple of days but the property is very warm anyway with silent central heating. Virtually perfect
