The cottage itself was cosy, was always warm and the beds were so comfortable. Our toddler was poorly the first night and the owners were great when I reached out to them and I managed to get new linen for the bed. The kitchen was lovely, had all the things you needed and we were left a lovely little welcome hamper of food and milk which was so helpful. Only thing I would suggest would be adding a larger frying or a sauté pan as the one there is quite small and not big enough to cook for a family of 4 in. Bedrooms were great, bathroom was perfect for our needs and the water pressure was fantastic. There was even shower gel provided and the towels were lovely and thick. I would recommend the cottage for a stay and the local town of Bedale has everything youâd need to stock up on.

So welcoming, we felt relaxed as soon as we walked through the door. Welcome pack a lovely touch. Only issue we had was the bathroom light. Took us a while to figure out. But we managed. Short drive for a lovely stroll around Bedale on a lovely sunny day. Would totally recommend. Can see us visiting again in the future.

The cottage was clean, warm, comfortable, cosy, fantastic! A really well presented spacious property. The hot tub was lovely and warm and secluded from neighbouring properties, a wonderful place to relax under the stars. We will definitely return for another visit.
