Sally's Cottage in Skipton is a well-received holiday rental, praised for its cleanliness, comfort, and prime location. Guests appreciate the friendly and helpful host, Mrs. Greenwood, and the property's proximity to local amenities and attractions. The cottage's charm, coupled with its sunroom and garden, offers a peaceful retreat. While most reviews are positive, a few mention the need for updates and the absence of Wi-Fi.
Guests that stayed at this property said
The majority of guests found the cottage to be very clean and well-maintained, contributing to a comfortable and pleasant stay. One review mentioned cleanliness was not up to their standard, but this seems to be an isolated opinion.
The cottage's location is highly praised for its convenience to Skipton, local shops, and pubs, as well as being a great base for exploring the Yorkshire Dales. The availability of local walks and attractions adds to the appeal.
Guests generally find the cottage cosy, spacious, and comfortable, with a special mention of the sunroom. However, there are comments about uncomfortable furniture, suggesting room for improvement in this area.
Facilities are considered good, with a well-equipped kitchen and a garden. Some issues with TV reception and the absence of Wi-Fi are noted, indicating that while facilities are adequate, there is scope for enhancement.
There are no specific mentions of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the host that would fall under this category. Therefore, it is not possible to provide a score for thoughtfulness.
