It was ok, stunning views.
Well it was just nice… I personally had issues and would only give it a 3 star rating. Don’t quite understand how everyone gave it 5*… that is really misleading and unfair for the next family. Yes the place was lovely but you don’t have everything you need. Baring in mind you have to travel and need your own items, the bare essentials was not available but you may be able to obtain them if you ask. I personally didn’t want to constantly ask and felt like I was being bothersome. The wifi was very poor, connection in one room only! 4 coffee capsules only, maybe details of the coffee machine should be mentioned, so one can bring some from home, if they are not going to be topped up daily. The cake selection in the dome, as a welcome hamper was dry and stale, The kids games were all over the place… no not one card game or a full family game, baring in my mind no wifi so what is one to do? Not one non-stick pan😑, No foil no cling film, No dish scrubber, The tv wasn’t compatible to use with wifi or Netflix. No salt or pepper, had to ask Coffee was old and stale so I bought my own after the 4 pods finished. The one jug of milk was welcoming. No baking facilities So it was back to basic dvds for the 3 nights. The town was lovely the view was lovely but everything to do in Otley was closed by this time of year or weekend openings only. Then to top it off the heating stopped working after the first night of our 3 night stay and had to use electric heating.

Beautiful view from a lovely property
This was our 2nd visit and we had started to wonder if maybe we’d just got caught up in holiday fever and rebooked in haste but as soon as we drove up the hill we remembered the magic! Julie is a fabulous host, nothing is too much trouble and the addition of an EV car charger was a super bonus. She has also added shower trays after I had mentioned them last time and there is now a little notebook for guests to comment if there are any suggestions for additions. The weather was glorious and the hot tub and view are the icing on the cake. We have already booked for next year!

We had a wonderful 2 night stay, Julie was an amazing host and answered all my questions about the working dairy farm. Julie let us work around the farm and see the cows and the calves. Such a beautiful setting and so peaceful. We can’t wait to return.

What a view
Lovely place to stay, bet its gorgeous in summer. Julie is lovely and helpful without being intrusive. Nice touch with cakes on arrival. Nice location and the beds are sooo comfy. Huge garden for the dogs to run around too. Kitchen is well equipped and modern bathrooms with walk in showers. We didn't use the hot tub with having a baby with us and the dogs would have wanted to get in lol. Highly recommend and the Sunday lunch at the Queens head was gorgeous and dog friendly too.

Lovely property
A lovely property with beautiful views of sun rise and sunset. The hot tub was amazing, even on a cold January (-3) evening. Warm welcome by Julie, easily contactable but left on our own. Bed was comfy, kitchen ideal and essentials available including the creamiest milk, eggs and cakes already in the cottage for us. Dishwasher, washing machine available for longer stays and both bedrooms had en-suites which seemed new. A nice drive away from Otley and Harrogate, out of the way enough for privacy and peace but local enough to shops etc. Will definitely book again.
