Guests consistently describe the cottage as spotlessly clean, indicating high standards of cleanliness throughout the property.
The cottage's location is highly praised for its beautiful scenery, good walks, and convenient access to local pubs and amenities, making it an ideal rural Yorkshire Dale experience.
The cottage is generally considered warm and comfortable with comfortable beds and a log burner, although some guests experienced issues with heating and a buzzing noise in one of the bedrooms.
Facilities are well-regarded, with a well-stocked kitchen and modern bathroom. However, points are deducted for reported maintenance issues such as non-working lights and heating problems that were not promptly addressed.

This double fronted, stone built cottage is tucked away in the small picture postcard village of Burnsall with its wide village green leading down to the meandering River Wharfe, ideal for picnics and paddling. It is located just a stone’s throw from the local pub which dates back to the 16th century and is known for its good food, real ales and fine wines. For fine dining try the local restaurant which has been awarded two AA rosettes, and is within strolling distance. Although this a non-pet property, the owner does occasionally visit the property with her own dog.
This is walking country, with both challenging hill walking and more leisurely walking along the river. You can always take the bus to Grassington and walk back to the village alongside the river, enjoying some spectacular scenery along the way and even try the Hebden supension footbridge or the stepping stones.
Being ’Tour de France’ country, there is plenty for the most ardent cyclist, both on and off road. The bustling market town of Skipton is just 10 miles away where you will find a wide selection of shops, a street market, pubs and restaurants together with a Norman castle, barge trips along the canal, an indoor swimming pool and golf course. For shopaholics, Harrogate with both high street and high end fashion, is about half an hour’s drive. The lively village of Grassington, with its summer arts festival which plays host to famous musicians, singers, comedians, poets and general entertainers, is just over 3 miles away, and in winter holds the Dickensian Festival to get you in the Christmas spirit. There is literally something to do for everyone. Shops 3 miles, pub 150 yards, restaurant 200 yards.

Lovely cottage very well situated, with views of the river from all front windows.Warm, comfortable and very well stocked, with everything you could possibly need in the kitchen. Comfortable beds, plenty of seating and a log burner.Plenty of scenic walks right from the front door.Just a couple of minor niggles, the kitchen was cold the only heating in there was underfloor heating, which did nothing to heat the room.In the main bedroom when you were laid down in bed a constant humming/buzzing noise could be heard coming through the wall from the cupboard in the bathroom. If noise bothers you take earplugs.Would definitely book this cottage again.

Gorgeous Cottage. Beautifully clean and well equipped in a lovely area. Although we had to cut our stay short due to family issues, we plan on returning very soon. Maybe the Welcome Pack could be better
