We had a wonderful time at Lime Croft. The situation was perfect with great views. Just a short walk from the village. (Bring a torch if you are walking at night). A perfect base for walking in the area or exploring further afield.

The cottage is lovely and overlooks the village of Malham. The cottage is very well equipped and very clean. The bedrooms being at separate ends is handy if anyone snores and the beds are very comfy. Our only negative is that the main living area was quite cold at the start of our stay and the underfloor heating didn't really lift it, however, there is a fan heater and two electric radiators which supplemented the underfloor heating and we did get it nice and cosy in there. It is a perfect base for the sights around Malham and also visiting Settle and Skipton and we would definitely stay there again.
