• "We’ve been to the Leyburn area quite a few times as we like it so much."

  There’s lots of places to visit either locally or within a reasonable driving time. We always seem to strike lucky with accommodation and this was no exception. Eastburn Cottage is beautiful and in a beautiful setting too. Very clean and well equipped and really comfortable. A pub on the doorstep serving great food was a bonus.

  I’m so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Eastburn Cottage and look forward to seeing you again! Kathryn Property Owner

• "Beautiful house and well equipped."

  Down stairs bed room and en-suite great, could do with a hand rail near the toilet to help you get up, other than that an excellent holiday had by all. Comfy and cosy with lovely views. We will be back.

• "Smashing cottage in a lovely quiet little hamlet with fab views from the cute little garden."

  Often self catering accommodation has a woeful amount of catering utensils in the kitchen. Not here, plenty of everything needed to cook at home. Bedrooms very comfortable and very comfy and cosy lounge. Great pub a few mins walk away serving hearty quality food and a friendly welcome.

  I’m so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Eastburn Cottage and the weather was not too bad. Thank you Kathryn Property Owner

• "Great home base to explore the Yorkshire Dales!"

  The cottage accommodated our family of 7, (made up of 2 adults, 3 kids and 2 elderly grandparents with mobility issues) PERFECTLY. The cottage was clean, and tidy and provided every necessity required for cooking breakfasts and dinners at home while also having close proximity to a lovely local pub (Street Head). The location is quiet and allows for walks right out the front door. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and I can quite honestly say that we wanted for nothing. It was a perfect holiday location which allowed us to unwind and relax. Highly recommend Eastburn Cottage!

  Thank you I am so pleased you enjoyed your stay in our lovely cottage in the dales! It is shame the weather was not better for you! Property Owner

• "The only problem was the low toilet in the downstairs bathroom which is too low if you are disabled and no rails to pull up with only the heating radiator which is not ideal for that purpose."

• "Lovely cottage, cosy and welcoming."

  Only issue was lack of an information folder to help get logged onto the WiFi, use the heating, the electric car charger and checking out instructions. Otherwise a perfect stay.

• "Eastburn cottage is a real gem."

  Situated as it is in a delightful Dales village. The local pub servers excellent meals and ales all at reasonable prices. The cottage itself has all the facilities you would expect and is a real home from home. There is plenty of lovely walks from the cottage or within a 15 min drive. We are already planning a returns trip Kevin Crawley.

  It is very comfortable, warm, spotlessly clean and well equipped. The owner is friendly and helpful. We did some great walks and Aysgarth Falls were spectacular!

• "This is a lovely property and a great location, to explore the Dales."

  Also, lovely pub in walking distance is highly recommended. I would say the only slight downside, is the nearest town is Leyburn, which is a bit of a drive a way, but hey, you're the Yorkshire Dales!!!

• "Lovely stay here."

  It is a peaceful location but easy to get to lots of places from here. The Street Head in is less than quarter of a mile away and serves lovely food. Tesco deliver here which was great for stocking up when we arrived because if you’re used to a large supermarket, then there aren’t any close by, however lovely smaller shops. Be aware that to get more than 4 people around the kitchen table you need to pull it out, which makes getting around the kitchen a bit tight. My only negative would be that we were a bit cold in the kitchen on occasions as we stayed the week the weather turned and I don’t think the heating had been adjusted accordingly. I gave up trying to figure the Rayburn out and phoned the owner who advised it was due to come on but that someone would visit if not. I know it’s been mentioned in previous reviews, but a welcome pack with basic info on things like this, as well as info about the recycling bins, would be so helpful. It didn’t spoil a lovely holiday but would have breakfast a bit warmer!

  It was so homely and spotlessly clean. The beds were really comfy and we enjoyed looking out to the lovely garden. When we come back to the dales we will definitely book Eastburn Cottage. The whole area is beautiful. If you don't know it I would recommend.

• "Lovely stay at Eastburn Cottage."

  It was spotless, extremely comfortable and well maintained. We chose this cottage for the downstairs bathroom as one of us has mobility issues. While the shower area was fine the toilet is very tight for space. I would not say it was suitable for those who need an accessible bathroom. However this did not affect the overall stay and the contact lady was very helpful in providing a shower chair and ramp etc to make things easier. Thanks again.

• "A wonderful and well equipped cottage in the quiet village of Newbiggin."

  High level of equipment with excellent kitchen and utility room. The beds were some of the most comfortable we have experienced. Spacious, very clean and tidy and a lovely place to relax. The Street Inn pub very good and a few minutes walk directly down. Leyburn (with a decent Co-op store) and Hawes offer a range of opportunities and some splendid walks in the overall area. Walk a circular path to West Burton and enjoy the falls. A couple of points. Please note for customers, as previous reviews, the need for clear and short instructions for use of the Aga (not the mass of makers information). We struggled with this, there was a hand written note on them about resetting if a problem. The 'caretaker' reset all for us but we still did not get the central heating working as nothing pumped round. Also the bathroom toilet seat needs to be secured.

  I am so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Eastburn Cottage. We will sort the bathroom toilet out thank you for letting us know. We will try and ensure that the Rayburn is working correctly . Our caretaker is always very willing to come across and sort out any problems. Thank you for your positive review Property Owner

• "The cottage was in excellent condition and very well equipped."

  It was ideal for our family for the week. The pub on the main road is fantastic, and make sure you visit the falls at West Burton as well as those at Aysgarth. One note, if you are over 6 feet tall (or 5'11" with your shoes on), then watch your head as the ceilings are low.

  Please advise the owners that the kettle is leaking from the bottom of the water gauge with this water going into the kettle switch. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in a lovely cottage which is very well equipped and we have already recommended it to friends.

• "What a fabulous holiday cottage."

  Everything had been well thought out and provided. The log burner was a wonderful bonus especially as we were there during Storm Arwen and had power cuts so at least we were lovely and warm. The Street Head Inn was a short 6 min. walk away through the lane - the food was wonderful and staff very friendly - we ate there four times and would recommend. We would recommend this cottage - a lovely warm comfortable stay.

• "There was absolutely no instructions how to use any of the appliances."

  Everything was more luck than judgement never been anywhere without basic welcome info. Also you stated all fuel included in price including the log burner but it wasn't and had to drive around to find some logs and sticks. Any fuel used had to be replace note on board said so this needs amending in your info.

• "Lovely cottage, warm, clean, well equipped, authentic."

  We had lots of rain but the utility room worked a treat to dry everything. Great multi fuel burner which was fun to light but not essential to keep the place warm. The books and games were packed away due to COVID but that just reduced the number of contact points and made me feel more reassured that everything was properly clean. We took bikes and they fitted neatly in the lockable shed. Would definitely go back.

• "This beautiful, well appointed cottage is in an idyllic, peaceful location right in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales."

  The cottage is extremely clean and comfortable with plenty of fuel for the log burner for cosy nights. The local pub (Streethead Inn) serves tasty meals and is only 5 minutes walk away. Due to COVID guidelines, we took our own cushions, fleeces and games for the cosy lounge. We had a fabulous week. The only thing we could have done with was instructions for the oven. Possibly laminated to make them COVID friendly, therefore cleanable.

  We went over the Xmas period and the owner put up a tree and left us a poinsettia, some white roses, and Prosecco. The log fire and Rayburn oven made this extra special. it felt like a home rather than a holiday property. would definitely recommend.

• "Eastburn Cottage was very comfortable, clean and had lovely views."

  We had a problem with the downstairs TV but this was quickly dealt with and we had no other problems. We visited a variety of visitor attractions - James Herriott museum in Thirsk which was very good and we liked Thirsk itself very much. We also enjoyed the Wensleydale Creamery and the Ropemakers in Hawes. We were unable to visit everything we wanted this time but we would stay at Eastburn Cottage again and would recommend it to others. We definitely liked the slower pace and less traffic of the Yorkshire Dales.

• "The cottage is an excellent and well cared for property in a delightfully scenic part of the Dales."

  Although a car is necessary to reach local towns there are interesting walks readily accessible right from the cottage door. If you have 2 cars parking in the space by the cottage is tight but just opposite on the other side of the road is a space in front of a garage that is owned by Eastburn Cottage that enables a second car to be parked satisfactorily. The dining space in the kitchen is a bit tight when the table is pulled out and extended but we managed relatively easily even though there were 7 of us. The garden is small but well kept and is perfectly adequate for sitting out in the sun if you are enjoying fine weather during your stay. If you are not, then the utility room with its drying facilities is a real boon. We would be happy to return to this property at some time in the future.

  Loved the outside space, views and the peace and quiet. Very quiet location but ideally placed for access to local amenities and central for activities. Having 2 bedrooms en-suite was a bonus although the shower in the downstairs bedroom had low water pressure, just took longer. Would definitely revisit this fabulous property.

  This problem was obviously known before the booking was made as it is a long-standing problem, I understand. We should have been informed about it beforehand and not when we arrived. It is a breach of trust to offer an facility that is known to be malfunctioning.
