Thank you for taking the time to review our cottage. We are sorry to hear that you had not seen that there were steps that lead up to the front door, however we do hope the rear entrance which has no steps and offers an alternative access to avoid the steep steps was more adequate. We do try to show all steps and in this case it is also mentioned in the additional information on our website for all our guests to read. We hope that you still enjoyed the Yorkshire Dales in all it's glory and the stunning views from the village.

A beautiful, clean and very well presented cottage.
The cottage was very clean and cosy with modern kitchen and bathroom facilities. A lovely basket of supplies was provided for our arrival and the heating was on for us. The village is quiet and not too far from the main road to Hawes and Leyburn. I would definitely stay here again.
