Charming cottage in Area of Outstanding Beauty

Property was as advertised. It would be small for 6 people or 5 large people but perfect for my family of 2 adults and 3 kids (2 teenagers). For things to do in area: Bolton Abbey, Fountains Abbey, Briham rocks (especially for kids) and a mine nearby to explore (if it's raining). For food, the Italian place at Pateley Bridge (something like Ollie's), the pub just down the street. Avoid the Indian place. Thanks Gil! Andrew

The cottage had all of the charm expressed within the description. Our family of 6 (3A, 3C) were perfectly comfortable with all 3C sharing one bed. The inclusion of a washing machine was very welcome to keep our luggage load low. We had fantastic trips to Whitby and York using this as our central point. The countryside is beautiful, the park was a good distraction for our children, the cottage clean and quaint. We are grateful for the opportunity to utilize this cottage for our holiday.

This house exceeded our expectations. My experiences with water pressure in the UK have not been great. It was perfect in this house. Beds were all comfortable and the 4 of use had plenty of room. Kitchen was perfect for all our needs and the ice packs in the freezer were a nice touch as we picnicked a lot. I didn't realize there wasn't a dryer and coming from America we packed light. Took jeans 2-3 days to dry on the rack provided, but not that big an issue. Owner gets back to questions in minutes. Neighbors were helpful and friendly, including local cats. Beer selection at pubs and restaurants was good. We ate at Royal Oak (Just ok), Ollies (Very good) and High Street Fisheries (Exceptional Fish and Chips). We didn't have time to go on any of the local walks and would love to come back. This location was central to our outings to York and Whitby. Black Sheep Brewery a must, but you should book a table.

Ideal for two couples or small family. Quiet location, just outside but close to Pately Bridge (10 minutes walk). Well appointed for home cooking. Also lots of good shops and restaurants nearby. Neighbours are friendly - as was everyone in the area. Good centre for visiting western Yorkshire, and hiking in the Dales and Nidderdale. Had a great time here.

The cottage was a spacious cosy cottage with all the home from comforts you need for a relaxing holiday. There were six adults in our party and there was plenty of room for us all. Having an en- suite and a bathroom meant no bathroom queues, kitchen was equipped with everything you needed to cook anything from a snack to a full dinner. We were lucky with the weather and took advantage of the sunny back garden. We grew up in pateley bridge and it was wonderful to show our kids our favourite old haunts - Brimham Rocks, Scot gate Quarry amongst others . After all that fresh air the beds were super comfy and we all slept well. Thank you for letting us stay in your cottage.
