The location was very good. The large floor to ceiling window has a lovely view. This house has all the equipment that you could possibly want. Access to a vacuum cleaner and mop was great in wet weather - amazing how many holiday homes hideaway the cleaning equipment!

It was all very beautiful, especially the fixtures and fittings, one of the best rental cottages weve stayed in. The bedding and linens were of high quality, the kitchen was very well equipped & we enjoyed eating in whilst we were there. Good area to be; within half hour can visit Fountains Abbey, Brimham Rocks, Pateley Bridge (lovely walk along riRead morever from Glasshouses) and Harrogate. Hide

This is the second time I have stayed at the cottages. Both cottages developed and interior designed to a very high standard, but keeping the homely welcome feel. The beds and bed linen the best, which gives you a wonderful nights sleep. And the view! By night wonderland. Lets hope at nearly 80 I can drive up from Sussex again.

Well-appointed and beautifully decorated cottage in a stunning setting. It is so peaceful with a deer who visits most mornings. Hope to stay there again. Be aware when you arrive, there are three dogs that occasionally run loose around the estate.
