Beautiful cottage in a lovely location. Really clean. Tea,coffee and milk left for us by the owner. Log burner i lounge for cosy nights in. Just a pity the pub across the road has shut but only a 10min walk to a lovely hotel.

Lovely cottage, has everything you need for a comfortable break. Had our Christmas there and a lovely tree had been put up for us! Easy walk to Aysgarth falls area, plenty of walks locally. Some nice pubs not too far away. Bit awkward with the dog as there's no garden but plenty of areas close by.
