"Lovely cottage in idyllic surroundings."
Cottage had everything you need for a comfortable stay.
-
"Cottage was very comfortable, however the heating set up was a bit odd."
Heating came on one day early in the morning and another day late in the afternoon. There was no consistency. Also the parking was difficult. We have a large car and it only just fitted in the allotted parking space. The walls were very difficult to miss and it was made even worse as you had to reverse out. That aside, the cottage was in a lovely spot with fabulous views. Would certainly recommend .
-
"It was a lovely clean well equipped cottage in a nice location."
The owner left a good welcome pack.The only downsides were we found the double bed a bit uncomfortable and we weren't happy with the heating as the owners had control of the settings and we experienced some poor levels of heat
-
"The cottage was our base for a three peaks walk so was In the perfect spot for that."
Lovely views and a comfortable stay. It had everything we needed for a couple of nights and the lovely modern bathroom with fab shower and log burner was much appreciated after a long wet miserable three peaks walk ! Thank you for the wine and biscuits ☺️
-
"Everything matches the description."
lovely comfortable cottage in a beautiful setting. easy to find and host is very friendly and helpful
-
"The place was plenty big enough and well-equipped for our two couples."
I liked the big utility room where we could store our boots and hang our wet gear. There is private parking but it is awkward to turn cars round to get out.
-
"We had a lovely stay at the cottage, there was everything we could have needed and the small fire was a cosy bonus."
Perfect spot for getting out and exploring the Dales, will highly recommend to anyone we know
-
"Excellent cottage with everything you would need."
Clean and cosy and the wine and milk left by Sue was a lovely touch. Great location for visiting the Dales and we would book again foe sure.
-
"Had a brilliant time at the Coach House."
Sue is lovely and so helpful. The welcome pack was lovely too. We have definately found our home-from-home. This cottage has everything you could ever need.
-
"Cottage is spotlessly clean, well equipped, comfortable and met all our requirements."
Cottage's location is ideal for visiting Yorkshire, Lancashire and Cumbria.
-
"Lovely, comfortable, clean property."
Beautiful location. Welcome pack was a nice touch. Real fire was a bonus. The information provided, games, books, dvds were all appreciated. Plenty of hot water and towels. Will definitely recommend to friends and family and will definitely use this property again. Thank you.
-
"Our second time at the property."
Excellent area with a lovely hotel at the bottom of the drive. Easy walk into Settle and choice of train stations for day trips to Leeds, Skipton etc. Excellent walking from the cottage door too. Will definitely be back again.
-
"The property has everything you need, every room spotlessly clean."
including bedding, towels etc. Kitchen well stocked with everything you need to make your stay an enjoyable one. A very comfortable cottage with a lovely patio for watching the sheep graze. We have returned to this property for the past three years and will return in the future. Cottage is also well placed for visiting Yorkshire, Lancashire and Cumbria.

"Lovely warm comfortable cottage, well equipped kitchen, lovely setting."
-
"Great place, spacious and very well equipped."
Great location too for visiting the local countryside. Friendly neighbours and owner who came out to check on us when we had difficulties. I would echo what everyone else says about the parking arrangements, but there is plenty of safe and free parking 100yards away. A couple of small things that would have made our stay 100% - The kitchen shelves were very high up - I could only reach the bottom shelf! - maybe provide a step-stool? The single bed mattresses in the little bedroom weren't very comfortable.
-
"Lovely cottage in great location."
Well equipped and very clean. Parking outside the property is difficult if you have a large vehicle but saying that there is additional parking just a 20 second walk away so was no problem.Great views and very peaceful.
-
"Excellent location for exploring an amazing part of the country."
Only problem we had was getting in and out of the cottage parking area. By the last day we were getting quite good at it.
-
"Disappointed when arriving at the property."
Looked very run down, paintwork all peeling off, plant basket at the front of the property which had dead plants in it and a shed nearby with the door wide open that looked like it had a load of rubbish in it. Not a very welcoming first impression. This in no way spoilt the holiday of course, but when you pay good money I think it's reasonable to expect a bit more effort to be put into ensuring your guests have a positive experience.
-
"Many places we have stayed at have quite low seating in the living room."
The same has to be said for The Coach House. Higher chairs and sofas would be appreciated. Even if only two of the seats available were higher it would be better. Vehicle access to the property is quite tight. It might be good to make mention of this in the listing, especially if the driver isn't confident and has a big car. Some might feel that they have to park further away in the other designated parking area. That having been said, we still enjoyed our stay very much.
-
"A nice property, very clean and tidy."
We found the vehicle access to the property a challenge. Fortunately we only had a medium sized car, a larger vehicle would have struggled to get anywhere near to it.
-
"We had a fantastic stay."
The cottage was perfect. We will return. Thanks.
-
"The property was charming, in fact it was exactly to our taste!"
We had a very relaxing week, Christmas day was really special and we hope to return in the Summer!
-
"Nice, well equipped holiday cottage."
Ideally situated within walking distance of Giggleswick,Settle and surrounding area.Added bonus was The Craven Arms which is only a short walk down the drive.
-
"The accommodation was spotlessly clean, well equipped, warm and comfortable."
The local pub serves fabulous food and there are shops in Settle for supplies. A great location for walks in the Dales.
-
"House was marvelous and in an ideal location for walks into Settle."
The hotel at the bottom of the drive was also excellent for lunches and dinners. Highly recommended.
-
"Cottage has all the equipment and comfort you require whilst you are away from home."
The property is spotlessly clean, with all the kitchen requirements. It also has a lovely patio to sit out if the weather is good., Good location if you want to explore North Yorkshire
-
"Great location Had a lovely stay at the coach house and really enjoyed it and the surrounding scenery."
Lovely holiday
-
"Fantastic stay."
Beautiful scenery and lovely walks. Totally relaxed after a week at the coach house.
-
"A very welcoming house, tucked away at the back of a farm."
Very cosy and warm, with a good kitchen. Six of us stayed in the three bedrooms, which accommodated us well. The lounge is a bit cramped for six, but the dining table and chairs are a good size. The patio with furniture was great in the sunny evenings. We walked everyday and found the house a great base for this, we would stay again.
-
"This is a really lovely cottage in a great location with easy access to the Yorkshire National park and the Lake District."
I only have one slight moan, and that is the lack of a dishwasher. I appreciate a lot of guests will eat out, and that this would not be an issue. However for those who do self cater, a dishwasher would be a nice to have item.
-
"The house was spotlessly clean, welcoming and cosy."
We all enjoyed watching the sheep and cows in the fields next to the house. The scenery was beautiful. We particularly enjoyed sitting outside on the raised patio enjoying refreshments and our meals. The house had amble space and met our every needs. Our host Sue was lovely and quick to respond to problem we had. Overall I would recommend this house to anyone and wouldnt hesitate to go back.
-
"Fantastic location with lovely views across the hills."
Loads to do in the area for the family and nice to see all the local wildlife. The first time we saw the sheep peering through the kitchen window was a pleasant surprise and was a daily source of entertainment. House was comfortable and well equipped. The patio area was great for enjoying the afternoon sun.
-
"Fantastic location lovely cottage and friendly towns people with plenty of nice places to eat"
-
"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Coach House, it was very comfortable, beautiful views from the garden and had everything we needed."
The cottage was spotless and the flowers, bottle of wine, cookies and other welcome goodies were a lovely touch. We would recommend a stay here, the pub at the bottom of the driveway was an added bonus and you could easily walk into town within about half an hour.
-
"The owner was helpful and left some little extras for us to enjoy (flowers, wine, cookies, tea, coffee, milk)."
The house was clean and tidy and in good condition. The bathroom was beautifully appointed, as was the kitchen. The whole cottage was comfortable and cosy. It is situated in a beautiful location with many walks nearby. Altogether a lovely place to stay.
-
"Other than a couple of minor issues which were resolved immediately, the cottage, surrounding land and scenery was wonderful."
The peace and quiet was lovely, just sitting out on the raised patio watching and listening to the wildlife and enjoying a cold drink while cooking on the bbq. The owner had provided a lovely welcome package which was gratefully received and started our holiday off nicely. Overall the cottage served our needs very well, the location is great, giving easy access to every sort of activity you could want from walking, climbing, cycling, national gardens and all sorts of heritage houses. Close by is the town of Settle which can supply your shopping needs, otherwise a broader range of goods can be sort out in Skipton about 30 minutes drive away. I would recommend this cottage to anyone who wants to get away from it all and chill out.

"It was booked very last minute (the evening before) so was great to have the lovely ladies in the office helping to contact the hosts to confirm the booking, so when we set off from London we knew the booking was secured."
The cottage was fabulous, we had fires every night & there was a Christmas tree!
-
"Lovely quiet village in Giggleswick."
Views were wonderful and serene. Wonderful for walking.
-
"We had a lovely peaceful stay at the coach house."
The beds were very comfortable. Walks right on the doorstep and plenty of other places to visit. Sue the owner was lovely. We'd definitely like to go back sometime.
-
"The property needs investment to bring it up to the 21st century"
-
"It was wonderful!"
It 'only' met expectations because the Sykes info is so accurate and I expect the cottages to be just as described. And they are. We have never been even a tiny bit disappointed.
-
"Beautiful cottage, well kept well equipped"
-
"The wine, tea, coffee and biscuits were most gratefully received!"
The cottage was lovely, cosy and comfortable but perhaps the shower could be upgraded.
-
"Parking near the cottage was a bit perilous for a big car and did not know where the alternative parking was available until a day later."
Cottage very warm.
-
"A quirky cottage, with very good sound proofing, all the facilities you could need, in a great location."
Very warm for us. Lots of little extras that make big differences.
-
"Lovely well equipped cottage, kitchen is small but doesn’t lack much other than maybe a dishwasher."
Lovely quiet location with good access to the main road. Welcome pack was a lovely surprise. The extra parking is useful as drive is quite tricky for larger cars

Great location too, on the edge of the Dales and next to a very good pub.

"Lovely cottage in a great location."
Parking next to the cottage was a bit tight, but plenty of other parking near by. The cottage was lovely very clean, to many nick nacks around the house most of them could be put away.Also there seemed to be to much furniture on the house. It was very comfortable, we really enjoyed our stay.
-
"Cottage was nearer to the main road and because it was warm and the windows were open, the traffic noise was intrusive"

About the location
GIGGLESWICK
Settle 0.8 mile; Malham 7.3 miles; Skipton 16.2 miles.
This delightful Ribblesdale village lies below a limestone scar (part of the Craven fault) and just across the river from the bustling market town of Settle. It’s an incredibly pretty place with sturdy houses and cottages, many dating back to the 17th century as the ‘date stones’ over their doorways will confirm. Today the village is still centred around the beautiful St Alkelda’s church, which dates back to the 12th century and the well-known landmark of the domed chapel at the famous Giggleswick School, which dominates the village skyline. Giggleswick itself has two pubs, whilst the wide ranging amenities of the nearby market town of Settle are within easy walking distance. Further afield is the town of Ingleton with its splendid waterfall walk and of course (for the serious walker) the Three Peaks are nearby.
