States parking, doesnt say you have to be lucky to get a spot after constant watching/waiting for one as its a town with shops so lots of locals as well as visitors wanting a spot ! Having to do this put us off going anywhere by car after the first 2 days! Once we got a space it stayed there till end of our trip. Next booking i make will have its own parking space.

We loved our stay in this cottage. The location is very central and ideal; a 2 minute walk to the Wensleydale Creamery, the convenience store, chip shop and pubs within a stone's throw. We will be back. Thank you.

About the host

Hosted by Annette Law

Host profile image
I have been visiting North Yorkshire for over 35 years with my husband and latterly with our two children and have now realised a dream and purchased our own cottage to share the the delights of the Yorkshire Dales with our guests. The Dales is a place where we can come and de-stress as we all lead hectic lives. We are pleased to share our home from home with all that you would expect to make your stay complete.

Why they chose this property

Excellent local amenities and good tourist attractions and remote walks. We have visited North Yorkshire for over thirty five years and have fallen in love with 'God's own country'.

Good cleanliness reviews. Disinfectant and all surfaces wiped down. Complimentary hand santiser

What makes this property unique

We have free, robust, intenet access for guests, all local amenities are within walking distance of the cottage and the quirky layout is unique. These are the features that drew us to this property and account for many returning guests.

The property is an ideal holiday home in terms of cleanliness, amenities, location and one pet dog.
