A perfect holiday.
A perfect holiday. One of, if not the best properties we have stayed in. Everything in the cottage was just perfect. Lovely location in a really friendly village and the nearby surrounding areas were fantastic. Such an idyllic setting with the river so near. The cottage was absolutely spotless and so well equipped. Spent most days walking around nearby areas and it was a joy to relax in such a fantastic place. Thank you so much.

We really enjoyed our stay at Duck cottage.
We really enjoyed our stay at Duck cottage. The owner was helpful and sent us lots of information ahead of arrival The location in Gargrave was ideal, with plenty of pubs, places to eat and a small grocery store just a few minutes walk away. There are many wonderful walks straight on your doorstep. The cottage was really well equipped with every comfort of home, very nice bedding and spacious rooms. Thanks for a lovely stay.

A relaxing cottage in a perfect location.
A relaxing cottage in a perfect location. Just a few minor issues with the standard of cleaning, a very greasy pan left in the drawer, dust on top of the cooker hood and light shades. The small freezer is in dire need of defrosting. Television not in the ideal position for viewing. Would however return again
