"A last minute booking at this beautiful cottage and garden."
Pictures don’t do it justice. Everything we liked. Isolation. Working Farm. Nature and wildlife. Plus the weather was great. We would have stayed for the full week but both come down with a virus and headed home early. Would love to return when the 2nd barn is finished.

"Although on a farm unit down a long farm track this is situated next to the owners cottage and is quite isolated."
The rooms are spacious although the first floor is reached via a narrow staircase. The kitchen is a little spoilt by an old cooker but it works fine. The owners are very friendly and helpful. There is a big garden area for those with a dog.

"We rented the property because we were under the impression that the garden was enclosed and therefore ideal for the dog."
This was not the case. It would be helpful to know that this is sheep country and dogs have to be under strict control.
Apart from this the property was lovely and we would be happy to return

"We were made very welcome and felt comfortable in the house."
Everything we needed was there. We liked having lots of towels in the airing cupboard as holiday cottages often only give you a couple.
The house was spotlessly clean and there was plenty of room outside for our dog to run about.

"My friend Neil and I had a lovely week."
The property is lovely and quiet, nicely decorated with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The garden is a lovely place to sit for breakfast. The owners are very nice, Pat recommend a place to eat where I discovered a dessert called lemon posset. I will hopefully visit again.

"The cottage was lovely and in a very quiet location."
An excellent base for exploring the Yorkshire Dales. Pat and John were warm and welcoming hosts. The cottages was spotless and well furnished. The kitchen was a little too basic for our liking and would benefit from a more modern cooker/fridge freezer, but that’s just our personal preference. There was also a lack of large coffee mugs and glasses suitable for our G & T, but these are only a minor point. A lovely stay. Thank you

"The cottage was comfortable and cosy."
It’s setting was isolated as stated but within a beautiful setting surrounded by uninterrupted views of the Yorkshire Dales. Would highly recommend the cottage if you are looking for a peaceful holiday away from the hustle and bustle. Plenty of walks in the area and just a short distance from smaller villages or the larger town of Settle. Superb hosts too.

"Absolutely perfect location."
Rural, peaceful and idyllic. Just what we wanted and the hosts were lovely. We were greeted upon arrival and just left to do our own thing. Wonderful countryside and the walks around the area are great. The only thing that I would consider in changing would be to update the cooker. Everything else was excellent.

"The location of the property was fantastic, with views from the cottage in all directions."
Fantastic location for us as extremely quiet and private, and being in between the Yorkshire Dales and the Forest of Bowland so lots of walking in those areas. We slept incredibly well and totally chilled out there.

"We had a great experience at Woodlands."
Pat and John were charming hosts who had taken great care in the preparation of the cottage and were a mine of local information. The cottage was thoughtfully decorated and furnished and is situated in a remote and beautiful spot. We would definitely go back there.
My only criticism of the experience was that we had previously booked accommodation closer to Skipton and, despite having paid in full, the property was withdrawn by the owners with only 3 weeks to departure. Had we withdrawn at that stage we would have lost our money but the Sykes contract does not penalise the owner in any way for our inconvenience.
As it happened things worked out really well as we could not have improved on Woodlands. However the principle remains.
