"The hob is very slow to heat and not very powerful."
There aren't enough cooking accessories - casserole dishes, mixing bowls etc. Absence of a dining table is a pain.
Very comfy bed and nice bath. Good fire. We enjoyed our stay.
Not sure I'd say there is plentiful parking.

"This is the 3rd time we've been back to this beautiful cottage for a winter break."
This cosy cottage has everything you could need, lovely log burner, comfy big bed and set in a beautiful village in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales, but positioned in a quiet part of the village so you really do feel like you are away from it all.
Thank you Ian for the wine and allowing us to stay in your beautiful cottage again, we'll be booking up to return again soon without a doubt!

"A lovely cottage in peaceful little town of Settle."
We thoroughly enjoyed our week staying here, particularly having the fire going and the very comfy bed to retire to. Ian, the host, was incredibly helpful, when we realised the boiler had gone off on our last day, he rang us back straight away and talked us through restarting it, ensuring we enjoyed another cosy evening. Would recommend a stay here and we’d love to come back too.
We are very pleased indeed that you enjoyed your stay so much. Please do come again and try the Settle to Carlisle railway line, Appleby or Ribblehead are great places to get off. And thank you for the lovley condition you left the cottage in. Come again ! Ian & Victoria.

"Very disappointed with the TV could only get programs on catch-up."
For order people it needed another hand rail on the stairs. Didn't say there was no outside space. Very difficult dropping off and loading car up. All in all a very nice cottage.
We are glad that you conclude very nice cottage and that we were able to come an put the TV on the channel that you wanted. We have been able to replace the shower that you broke and as this is a quaint village cottage we do not advertise outside space as you rightly state. There is on street parking outside without any restrictions - which is very rare in Settle. Thank you for leaving the review and your kind feedback about cleanliness, Comfort and facilities.

"We enjoyed our stay at this cute, cosy and quiet cottage."
It is well located and within easy walking distance of all Settle has to offer. The furniture and fittings are good quality, the bed is huge and very comfortable. Good Wi-Fi and a bonus to be able to log into our Netflix account. The kitchen is well thought out, has everything you need including a washer/dryer. As the weather was good we sat on one of the benches on the green to enjoy the scenery, we met a few of the neighbours (& their dogs) who were all very friendly and it just made our stay feel even nicer! Thank you for the card and wine, much appreciated

"This is the second time my brother has stayed here while I’ve been visiting school friends and family in Leeds."
It is the best cottage Sykes have in the area in our opinion.
The position in Settle is amazing, the views are wonderful from the cottage, being only a few minutes from the town centre and train station.
The cottage is beautifully furnished, the kitchen has full appliances, the bedroom is a good size with good quality furniture. The bathroom has a lovely corner bath/shower.
I have M.S. and access in and out of the cottage was no problem, the short walks are worth every breath, even going up and down hill!
In fact breathtaking is a good description of the whole experience.
Ian and Victoria are so helpful, and accommodating, providing a great welcome gift and card, making the stays such a pleasure.
If we could give them 11/10 we would.
Perfect.
Its really great to have you back again, and our cleaner has asked that we pass on her gratitude for the lovely condition you left the cottage in when you checked out. Thank you from us for the time you too with this review, we look forward to seeing you again. Very kind regards Ian & Victoria.

Clean and tidy and well maintained, very homely and it’s so close for splendid walks. And the magnificent views from the bedroom window are amazing.
It is only minutes away from the town centre, with less of the hustle and bustle that Skipton has. Everyone is welcoming and friendly. The perfect base for a great break away. Well done Ian and Victoria.

"Washing up liquid and spare bin liners were needed, but other than that, well equipped relaxing setting."
Maybe cushions and a throw would add to the cosiness downstairs, and a curtain to block out draughts from front door. It's our second time staying at this cottage, and we hope to visit again, we love it so much. Thank you
Hi and welcome back, always a great recommendation when people come back as you have. It happens a lot and is always very nice. It's a shame the system marks us down simply because of your comment about washing up liquid, which is under the sink with bin bags. Thank you for your suggestion of cushions, they have now been provided.
We look forward to you coming back again for the third time!

"Cottage was charming and exceeded expectations."
Met cleaner briefly- a very pleasant woman. Minor problem with parking - arriving weary after drive from Sheffield we encountered elderly neighbour who tried to dissuade us from using only parking space available as it would ‘ spoil her view of the animals’ ( sheep I suppose).
Subsequently parking on very narrow road could be tricky but we usually found a space nearby. We did miss a cafetière but I am being picky!thank you for wine .
Dear John, We are pleased you enjoyed the cottage, parking is tricky in Settle but the cottage is in the best part of the centre for parking and there are no restrictions here (unlike most of the rest) of Settle, the pensioner you refer to thought you were going to leave your vehicle across her living room window and perhaps didn't realise you planned to move it ? There has never been a problem before. We hope to see you again. Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. Ian & Victoria.

"The cottage is situated in a quite location on the outskirts of Settle, ideal for 2 people and a dog."
The cottage itself was clean and cosy with a comfortable bed (our only minor gripe, no freezer compartment in the fridge for the G & T ice). Roadside parking for the car was not an issue during our stay. The town centre itself is a short walk away, with plenty of shops, supermarkets and dog friendly places to eat and drinks. We would highly recommend as a place to stay when visiting The Dales. Skipton, Hawes, Malham and Grassington are a scenic short dive away with plenty of walks on the door step.

"The cottage is beautifully appointed, with high quality furnishings and fittings."
The beds are really comfortable and it is warm and cosy both upstairs and downstairs, with very efficient central heating and log burner. bathroom is great, good sized bath and very warm. The cottage is compact but there is plenty space for two people and a dog. It is just a short, easy walk to the shops shops and cafes in Settle. Situated on The Green, it has lovely views and is so peaceful and relaxing. There are walks from the cottage up onto the fells, and more challenging walks are just a short drive away. Parking is limited on The Green, but there is a big car park just a few minutes away. We felt that this contributed to the peace and quiet as very few cars go past. We can’t wait to come and stay again. The host was most considerate and accommodating. Thank you!
