Guests say

Belle Vue is highly praised for its cleanliness, prime location, and comfort. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, attentive owners, and thoughtful touches like welcome gifts. While parking can be challenging, the property's proximity to Ilkley town and the Moors, along with its homely feel, make it a recommended stay.

Guests consistently note the property's spotless condition upon arrival, indicating a high standard of cleanliness that contributes positively to their overall experience.

The property's location is frequently described as perfect, being close to both Ilkley town and the Moors. Despite some parking difficulties, the convenience for exploring the area is highly valued.

Comfort is well-regarded with mentions of homely touches, well-kept gardens, and comfortable beds. Some guests noted issues with heating in the basement bedrooms, but overall satisfaction with comfort is high.

Facilities are generally praised, especially the well-equipped kitchen. However, there are occasional mentions of maintenance work and noise, as well as difficulties with heating control, which slightly affect the score.

Many reviews express gratitude for the thoughtful welcome gifts, including treats for both guests and pets, although it is noted that such gestures are a bonus and not guaranteed.

  • Jane

    Very well equipted. Good cooker and a range of pans for cooking. Comfortable beds with lovely smooth cotton sheets and duvet covers. Very spacious. Only minor problem was the fridge behind the kitchen door. If someone opened the kitchen door whilst the fridge freezer door was open the doors blocked each other. Otherwise the kitchen is excellent. Good washing machine, iron and ironing board and space to air washed clothes. The town house is within easy walking distance of the town centre which has many interesting shops and restaurants. The owner is easy to contact if you have any needs. We had a lovely stay. My husband needed time to relax between his chemotherapy sessions. He has days when he feels tired so this was a wonderful opportunity for him to stay in a relaxing environment that was very clean. On his better days it was easy to access local National Trust Historical sites by car. I would also recommend the Brookes Sri Lankan restaurant. Within walking distance if you want to have a drink. Thank you Andy for a wonderful stay.

    Andy was a fantastic host from helping us with a query before we arrived to checking by text during our stay to ensure that all was well. The apartment was spacious and all facilites in excellent order. Very comfortable beds and a very well equipped kitchen ensured a thoroughly enjoyable stay. The location of the Belle Vue was ideal too - a five minute walk into the centre of Ilkley and a 20/25 minute walk up to the magnificent Cow & Calf. We would be happy to recommend the property to family and friends and would make a return visit without hesitation

  • Dave

    Well placed for local amenities, Ilkley town and numerous walks around the moors. The owner was quick to respond to my questions before travelling, and friendly. Would book again.
