The Old Piggery is highly praised for its cleanliness, comfort, and stunning views, particularly from the hot tub. Guests appreciate the friendly hosts and the property's dog-friendliness. The presence of animals adds charm, though a few guests missed having a freezer. The location is ideal for exploring the Yorkshire Dales and nearby towns.
Guests consistently mention the property's cleanliness, describing it as immaculate and well-presented. The attention to cleanliness contributes significantly to the overall positive experience.
The location is generally well-received for its picturesque views and proximity to local attractions. However, one review expressed disappointment about the property's distance from Haworth, slightly impacting the score.
Comfort is a strong point, with guests finding the accommodation spacious and the beds comfortable. The underfloor heating is a notable feature, although one guest found their room too warm.
Facilities are highly regarded, especially the hot tub. Some guests suggested improvements such as a cover for the hot tub and the addition of a freezer or BBQ. The absence of a freezer is a recurring point of feedback.
While many reviews express gratitude for the thoughtful touches, such as a bottle of bubbly, there is not enough consistent information about other gifts to accurately score this category. It should be noted that such gifts are not guaranteed.

Perfect location for our toddler and the 2 dogs. The animals onsite are lovely to see, we loved the Peacocks and the little cat that came to greet us when we arrived. The cabin itself was beautiful and very clean, the views were amazing, especially from the hot tub with a glass of bubbly. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
