Sustainable Property
Sustonica, the first global sustainability standard for holiday lets.
Our aim is to create lasting holiday memories and we intend to do so both responsibly and sustainably.
To deliver on this we've set out a number of environmental and social pledges which help to focus our efforts;
you can read more about them in our Impact Report.
This is why we've partnered with Sustonica, the first global certification for holiday lets,
to support our owners to be more sustainable.
The Sustonica certification focuses on four key areas: energy conservation, water conservation,
waste reduction and promoting inclusiveness. They are on a mission to become the most widely
recognised sustainability standard for holiday rentals and a catalyst to reduce emissions of holiday
lets and influence guests to reduce their own household consumption too.
Properties that display the Sustonica badge have successfully passed the criteria,
which align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Sustainable Tourism Council standards,
and their owner has made a commitment to look after our planet as well as you.

Good working gas central heating and a open fire, (which takes some getting going) Hot water and showers very good, very fast. Mega comfortable bed . Easy to use washer and dryer. Microwave easy but can't comment on electric oven or smart TV as I didn't use them. Everything you could want is provided. Plus a gift of coffee and Yorkshire parkin , thank you.

The quality of furnishings, crockery and kitchen equipment was well above expectations and it’s not often you leave somewhere not looking forwards to a night in your own bed because of a mediocre mattress.
The location was excellent especially for dog walkers,neighbours friendly and hosts welcoming.

As one who does not take kindly to any technical appliance I found the cooker rather bewildering and would have appreciated a microwave as a back up. My dog thought he had arrived in heaven and is requesting a return visit when I am in better health and can enjoy the surroundings more fully. A five star treat

"We had a really nice time despite the weather."
The house was lovely and clean and beds very comfortable too. The kitchen equipment is adequate too . The little arrival gift was a nice touch and the heating being on made a difference too as it was a cold wet day. I’ve only given four for maintenance as the bathroom door does need a lock and it would have been nice to have a smart tv, but that was just a minor thing and we used our laptop when we wanted to watch Netflix. The WiFi was good which was helpful. The pub around the corner (The Swan) serves really nice food at a reasonable price, and there are plenty of supermarkets to choose from. It’s an ideal base for walking or visiting nearby market towns. I’d book it again without hesitation.

Can't really complain about Heating provision, as their was full central heating (not actual needed this May) and provision to light a Log fire. Just in between, it would have been useful to have a "local" heat source, such as a blower heater, for the odd evening when it did go a bit cooler, particularly as the Cottage has very substantial stone walls.

This fantastic Yorkshire Dales cottage in Addingham is a wonderful romantic retreat for discovering all that the Dales have to offer.
The historic village of Addingham nestles in the valley of the River Wharfe between Ilkley and Skipton, just 3 miles from the Dales National Park at Bolton Abbey. In the Doomsday Book, Addingham is referred to as 'Ediham', which probably meant 'Home of Edi', the Earl Edwin of Bolton Abbey. A corn mill was mentioned in 1315, near where High Mill is today, and the weir across the river is one of the oldest medieval structures in the village. Today's village is a thriving, small community with several good pubs serving fine ale and excellent food, a scattering of small shops and a delightful golf course surrounded by breathtaking countryside. Nearby Bolton Abbey is one of the region's most scenic areas and the walk along the river to the 'Strid' is a must. The Victorian Spa town of Ilkley is worth a visit, with its wide streets, world-famous Box Tree Restaurant and Bettys Tea Rooms, while Ilkley Moor is the subject of Yorkshire's unofficial anthem “On Ilkla Moor Baht at”. Grassington and Malham are within reach, plus Skipton is also close by with its ancient castle, beautiful old parish church, colourful street market, canal trips and Embsay Steam Railway.
