"Where to start."
..lets start with the area...easily 10 out of 10...a lovely place to spend a holiday...the community spirit was first class...friendly neighbours and the community run shop and pub which were right on the doorstep were a joy to use...the shop especially with it's volunteers...always with a happy smile on their faces and so happy to help.
the house...almost impossible to find any fault...so much room for two of us downstairs...VERY spacious kitchen and comfy living area and space outside with fantastic view...three nice sized bedrooms would have been ideal for the five guests it is meant for.
all in all....this is a place I would recomend and one where I hope to return again soon

"We had a lovely week at Rivendale, it was so central for visiting places around."
We enjoyed Liverpool, Blackpool and gorgeous Skipton and Grassington. Your house is so homely everything we needed was catered for. Would definitely recommend it and would stay there again. Trawden was really nice, friendly folk around us. Thank you.

"The house was fantastic very modern and open plan, the couches downstairs were very comfortable!"
The cleanliness of the house was very good except the pet hair inside the radiators. However the floor upstairs including the stairs are very loud, you can hear it when somebody is walking about upstairs. Also the gate lock was a bit fiddly. Overall a very good experience and would recommend, the fresh milk in the fridge was a good addition.

"The house was lovely, large, clean, bright, and comfortable."
A drive for parking. The village of Trawden is community run, with a fab community shop and pub just yards away. Everyone was very friendly.
We had a great 3 nights stay, thank you. Would highly recommend.

"We had a lovely time seeing friends again the house was as good as a great place to stay again."
Unfortunately the weather was not kind to us so we didn’t do as much walking as we did before but managed two jigsaws instead. The village community shop and pub served us well and I’m sure we will be back again.

"Our second stay at Rivendale and we thoroughly enjoyed it again."
A warm and relaxing home with such comfortable beds and a great kitchen that had everything we needed. A great location for beautiful walks over to Wycoller & back via The Emmott Arms & the Trawden Arms! A bonus that the village shop is just across the road with such friendly staff and lovely goodies. We hope to return again in the future. Thank you.

"Great house to spend a break in, feels so new and clean."
Loved watching the birds and squirrels in the back, the bloke who lives below the fence feeds them daily.
Great walk to the waterfall, you need a map to find it, set off by the river just past the pub next door.
Buses on the doorstep to Colne, plenty of pubs and shops, only £3 return if you return after 7pm, bus outside Farmfoods arrives around 7.15.£2 each way in the day.
Well done to the owner, superb property.
Thank you so much for your review! It means a lot. I do work hard to make it feel like it's the first time anybody has stayed.

Enjoyed our time at Rivendale very friendly village great pub Nextdoor weather was great just one thing it would have been nice if the grass had been cut and patio swept and freezer needs defrosting otherwise had a great time thank you Iona for our second visit
Hi Sharon,
My apologies for the longer lawn, it has been a bit of struggle with the rain. It has now been sorted out & patio swept! I'm glad you got the lovely weather when you came. I will defrost the freezer when I can fully defrost it, at the moment I have guests leaving & arriving on the same day.
Thank you for coming back & spending your holiday at Rivendale it means a lot.
Best regards

"Rivendale was a beautiful place to stay for my solitary trip to visit my parents birth places."
The house was spotlessly clean and really well equipped with everything you could possibly need, with comfortable seating, a really well equipped kitchen and quality bedding. A nice welcome pack was appreciated and I very much enjoyed using the space and getting to know the local area. I would recommend the house as a lovey place to stay.

Not a usual holiday destination but would recommend to anyone wanting to visit a range of places including the Yorkshire Dales, Forest of Bowland and the Fylde coast. The only downside were the very creaky upstairs floor boards if you have a light sleeping child!

"The property is lovely and was really clean."
The kitchen had plenty of storage for food and a good sized fridge freezer. The beds weren't as comfy as we had hoped and the dishwasher was out of action for the week we were there which meant a fair amount of washing up. We managed fine in the property as there were only 2 of us, but given that it sleeps 5 there wasnt enough seating in the main living room that said it was a lovely property to spend a week in.

"We recently stayed at Rivendale for four days and it didn’t disappoint."
It was our first family get away as a family of five and the house was perfect for our needs. It was spacious enough that we weren’t on top of each other but still cosy enough for us to spend quality time together even if we were across the living / dining room.
When we arrived there was milk in the fridge and a choice of tea or coffee which was perfect as a quick brew was needed before going to the shops. They also provide two chocolate lolly for my children that when down very well.
The furnishings in the house were beautiful and the kitchen was well equipped for the meals we cooked.
There was a lovely seating area outside but unfortunately the weather insisted we couldn’t use it as it rain most of the time we were there. This didn’t dampen our experience though and the house is well situated for many surrounding areas so a perfect base.
I would / have recommended this cottage and will we definitely look to stay here again.

"We had a lovely stay in Rivendale for the week."
Comfortable, spacious, relaxing cottage set in the village of Trawden. Friendly commuity and we utilised the Community shop across the road without the need of going to a larger supermarket. The kitchen was adequately equiped for self catering and enjoyed many a meal sitting at the dining table. They only thing we felt was missing was a small milk jug for morning breakfast. We went to the Trawden Arms for a delicious meal and the staff were very friendly and welcoming also recommend The Old Rock Cafe. We explored the local area, lots of public footpaths but unfortunately the weather was poor and didn't venture walking as much as we would have liked. We highly recommend Rivendale to use as a base to explore the surrounding and wider area.

"We thoroughly enjoyed our week in this lovely, spacious and comfortable house and is beautifully presented and clean, a credit to the owner, Ilona, she also left us a few provisions which we appreciated."
The kitchen had everything we needed for the days we prepared meals and we also ate out a couple of times at the Trawden Arms, which is next door and can recommend the food, the staff are friendly and made us feel welcome. To say we were next to a pub isn’t an issue with noise, we found it to be really quiet. Skipton is a nice place to visit and also walk alongside the canal. Also had a lovely day at Lytham St Annes and finished the day with a meal at Miller and Carter, always enjoy the food at a M&C. Can highly recommend staying here and would do so again if we decide to stay in the area.

"The property is very well maintained both internally and externally."
The owner gave us her number in case of any issues and we had to call her f on how the heating works which she came and showed us. Very pleasant lady and extremely helpful. We had supply of eggs and milk upon our arrival which was a very nice touch. The internal property décor is of a very quality and kitchen has all appliances and kitchen accessories.
There are many local amenities and local farm shop has daily items and we bought bread and local butter which was awesome. There is a pub round the corner call Trawden Arms where the food was excellent, very good atmosphere, staff were friendly and had no hesitation for a chat.
Overall an excellent experience and will have no hesitation to recommend to friends and family. We will for sure consider the place again.
