  Great views over surrounding countryside and easy access to main roads. Skipton compact little town with lots to offer. Also enjoyed seeing sheep, hens and goats in adjoining fields. Welcoming bottle of milk very much appreciated. Owners helpful, welcoming and accessible.

  Really love the cottage, spacious and clean, with nice safe area to let the dogs out. Enjoyed exploring Skipton with easy access to the town and park via the towpath as well as the railway station giving access to numerous local attractions.

• "We had a fantastic week in the very comfortable and well appointed Jess Cottage with our two Norfolk Terriers."

  Great location for exploring the local area and further afield with ease. Secure garden for the dogs and a lovely sitting area to sit unwind and watch the canal boats after a day exploring. Totally recommend to anyone wishing a comfortable stay in the area. Recommend Fountains Abbey for a visit.

  The cottage had everything we needed for a comfortable holiday and the views from the cottage were beautiful, a very relaxing holiday. The tow path alongside the canal is excellent for a walk into the lovely town of Skipton. Would definitely book here again.

• "The first thing we noticed was how true to the photos were the rooms."

  Having booked the cottage in order to have family over during the day, the space was important and the cottage was perfect for us. Then add the beautiful views, cleanliness and furnishings and we just didn’t stop praising it all. A lot of thought has gone into providing an ideal holiday home and we will definitely be back - if we can book as we see it’s a very popular cottage.

• "This is an excellent cottage which we are unable to fault."

  Whoever designed/equipped it has got it exactly right. We especially loved the showers! It was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The small enclosed garden was perfect for our dogs and we loved sitting looking out of the window. The nearest pub within walking distance is Heriots Hotel which is about 30 minutes along the tow path. Thank you for providing such great accommodation.

  Well situated for exploring Yorkshire, we went to Malham, Grassington, Fountains Abbey (National Trust) did one of the three peaks also walked along the canal into Skipton to the castle and the woods. The cottage is dog friendly with a nice enclosed garden, amazing views with a huge window and comfy chairs to sit and admire it. Well equipped and spotlessly clean. Would highly recommend

• "Brilliant place!"

  Loved it as soon as we entered the property - it was clean, well laid out with quality furniture and with everything you'd need in a kitchen. The view from the sun room over the canal to the hills beyond was lovely and the enclosed garden was great for our dog to wander in and out. Bedrooms, each with their own walk-in shower had lots of storage and hanging space. Nice comfy beds. Loved it so much we booked another week whilst we were there for later on in the year.

• "Beautiful, spacious cottage in a wonderful, peaceful location."

  On the outskirts of Skipton, it’s quiet, with a lovely view of the Dales and canal, but just a mile walk from the town and restaurants. The cottage had everything we needed, including a thoughtful pint of milk in the fridge on arrival. We loved the neighbouring animals, including the goats and chickens, and the sheep wandering in the adjoining field. Plenty of parking space, and everyone we met around the farm was cheery. Would definitely consider coming back.

  The cottage is so spacious, yet it feels so cosy. The views of the canal and countryside are fantastic, feels so rural yet you are either a twenty minute picturesque walk or 5 minute drive away from the shops. All areas of the cottage are extremely well equipped, a real home from home with secure walled garden to keep pets safe. They also sell their fresh eggs which were lovely!

• "This cottage was an excellent choice for us to visit the Skipton and surrounding area."

  It was like a home from home with all of the comforts and more. The cottage itself was immaculate and very clean. It has two bedrooms both ensuite and all of the facilities to make our holiday very peaceful and enjoyable. The views are exceptional and we all enjoyed a relaxing time after our days out looking over the canal and on to the hills with a cosy blanket over our knees and a hot drink in our hands. There were plenty of local farm shops selling local produce and the farm itself sold fresh eggs. We would definitely recommend this cottage as a central point for anyone visiting Skipton and the surrounding area. It is ideally situated for walking, cycling and going out in the car. We had a great time.

  The increase adds at least one hundred pounds per week and has made it too expensive and sadly we will have to look for an alternative.

• "We enjoyed our stay at Jess Cottage."

  To get to the towpath we obviously had to walk through the farmyard to walk over the bridge. Just before the bridge the farm had 2 dogs chained up either side, who launched themselves at us (we also had a dog with us). The owners did reassure us that they were actually friendly, but my dog and I were definitely not comfortable with the experience each time we wanted a walk. The views were wonderful and we loved watching the barges.

  4 adults and 2 dogs! Fantastic! Beautiful views, canal on the doorstep and cottage exceeded all expectations. Beds were so comfy and lovely ensuite bathrooms.

• "Lovely cottage in a wonderful spot."

  Being located within grounds of a farm makes it very secure. Sitting in the lounge bathed in sunshine drinking tea and looking out at the canal boats slowly passing by is a most restful experience. Skipton itself is a unique shopping experience with so many local retailers and fewer of the ‘nationwide’ lookalike shops. Can not recommend this cottage enough.
