The only thing we struggled with was the shower/bath. To use the bath you physically had to get in it to run it as the shower screen did not move. Would definitely return and recommend to family and friends

It had such a cosy feel to it, and despite the hot weather the cottage stayed nice and cool. The location was perfect - we explored so many places and never had to drive for more than 30 minutes (but tbh there is so much on the doorstep you donât need to leave!).All the village locals were so lovely when we met them on walks up the canal and the White Lion Inn just the other side of the canal served us the best pub meal weâve ever had! The staff were so welcoming too so weâd definitely recommend a visit.I could go on and on about how perfect this cottage / location / Yorkshire is in general! All in all a 10/10 stay and we canât wait to come back!
