Situated in the lower Yorkshire Dales, Crakehall is a peaceful little village that consists of two parts - Little Crakehall and Great Crakehall. The settlement lies around a large village green and offers a popular village pub serving delicious fare. Not far from Crakehall is the market town of Bedale, a traditional centre which has its own museum, weekly market and interesting churches, as well as a number of craft and antique shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs, which provide local beers and home cooked food. Also within driving distance are plenty other attractions, including the Constable Burton Hall Gardens with extensive parkland and woodland walks, the Forbidden Corner with its underground passages to explore, the lovely Georgian town of Richmond with its fine castle ruins and the Wensleydale railway line, an authentic heritage railway.

The hot tub was amazing and beds comfy. Lovely welcome pack. Found a few things missing such as bath mat and washing machine.

We are local to the area so knew our way around very well. Due to a mix up with Sykes the cottage owners were not expecting us so there was a lack of preparation for our stay, not the owners fault at all and they generously apologized with flowers, chocolates and prosecco which was very kind. The cottage is comfortable and roomy for 2 though I would expect it to be cramped at full occupancy (5) and there is only 1 combined bathroom/toilet. Despite not having parking at the property this was not a problem and even unloading a weeks worth of supplies proved hassle free and there was always lots of parking available beyond the pub. We did visit the pub once, it has a very basic food menu and limited bar and geared to locals, we enjoyed several visits to nearby Bedale which has an abundance of everything. The bed and sofa were super comfortable and the cottage is furnished to a high quality. We stayed during a week of violent storms, the front wooden door had swollen with the rain and didnt close properly, the lounge is the chilliest room in the house but upstairs is very warm and cosy. We were able to let our dog out in the courtyard but always had to check that the from gates were closed s this exits direct onto a main road. The abundant grass areas opposite the cottage are great for exercising dogs and there is a play area for children.

Front door was warped and hard to lock/open. We were aware that the weather had contributed to this. Got tub was great added extra. Comfy beds and cosy. We had a great stay.
