We found it very difficult to lock. Also the back gate needs fixing/replacing it's looking very tired.

The cottage was very clean, well equipped, warm and comfortable. I love this part of North Yorkshire and the cottage provided an excellent base for exploring the area. Crumble's was a real home-from-home for me and my dog.

The owner left some lovely coffee, tea and cake for us to enjoy. We have stayed in over 10 cottages in North Yorkshire and by far this has been the best overall. Weâll be booking again for later this year.
