Sustonica, the first global sustainability standard for holiday lets.
Our aim is to create lasting holiday memories and we intend to do so both responsibly and sustainably.
To deliver on this we've set out a number of environmental and social pledges which help to focus our efforts;
you can read more about them in our Impact Report.
This is why we've partnered with Sustonica, the first global certification for holiday lets,
to support our owners to be more sustainable.
The Sustonica certification focuses on four key areas: energy conservation, water conservation,
waste reduction and promoting inclusiveness. They are on a mission to become the most widely
recognised sustainability standard for holiday rentals and a catalyst to reduce emissions of holiday
lets and influence guests to reduce their own household consumption too.
Properties that display the Sustonica badge have successfully passed the criteria,
which align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Sustainable Tourism Council standards,
and their owner has made a commitment to look after our planet as well as you.
Cosy, maybe even small for 2 adults and 2 teenagers, but warm, comfortable and welcoming. Had everything we needed! Fabulous shower.
Owner and family live nearby and we met them all. They were warm and welcoming and invited us to local activities over Christmas, but were never intrusive.
A beautiful house in a beautiful location!

"We have stayed in many cottages over the years and would say this is certainly one of the best."
A wonderful comfortable cozy cottage right in the heart of Malham, equipped with everything you could need. Fabulous walks from the door and further afield. Great beer and atmosphere in the Lister Arms. Autumn is a brilliant time to visit. We watched salmon leaping, shooting stars and even saw the comet.

"17th century cottage full of character."
Lovely modern bathroom and a garden looking out over fields which was a sun trap in the evenings.
Lots of walks from the doorstep plus loads to see and do a short drive away. Lots of info in the cottage.
Would have been nice to have a small amount of tea, coffee, sugar and milk on arrival but small shop down the road and Asda delivered our weeks supply.
Pubs near by for serving meals, a cafe and a farm shop a short walk/drive away

"Rose Cottage is a lovely old cottage in superb location."
Cannot fault it except for not having wardrobe in twin bedroom, it has a dressing table but I think this could be replaced with a small wardrobe.

"We had a lovely time staying in Rose Cottage."
It was clean, the bed was comfortable, the sofas were comfortable and the shower was excellent. There is a really good pub just over the road from the cottage and lots of good walks from the doorstep. The weather was appalling but we managed to get out walking most days and the one day when the rain was too awful to walk we relaxed in the cottage in front of a lovely fire. Highly recommend the nearest pub, good beer and good food. Hope to return to Malham and Rose Cottage soon, thank you for the flowers Barbara, they were a lovely touch and much appreciated.

It is in the centre of Malham which is a delightful setting near to some really nice walks and with the benefit of its own parking. The cottage itself was exceptionally clean and met all our needs. (And there are two pubs nearby whose food we can really recommend). Whats not to like ?

MALHAM
Settle 7 miles; Skipton 12 miles.
Situated at the head of Malhamdale amidst superb open limestone countryside, the picturesque village of Malham is a magnet for visitors to the Dales who come to see one of Britain's most impressive natural features - Malham Cove. The Cove consists of a natural cavern or 'amphitheatre' of limestone rock stretching 75 metres in height and 300 metres around the perimeter. A steep walk up man-made steps is rewarded with a superb view across moors and limestone pavements to Malham Tarn - the Pennines' highest natural lake. The village itself has pubs and tea rooms and a National Park Centre. Mountain bike hire can be arranged locally. There is excellent walking in all directions, making Malham a great base for a Dales holiday.
