  • "The cottage was lovely and had everything we needed for our stay and comfort."

    Great walks on the doorstep and great pub and tea rooms close by! Thanks

  • "A beautiful, well equipped and extremely comfortable cottage."

    Especially the bed!!! (I've been looking on the internet for the mattress) Great location for many walks and cafe/pub lunches. We will more than likely return to this cottage. The only negative comment we have was the parking. I would have been fine in my small car, Fiat, but my husbands car is large, and precious to him. (Mercedes) we parked down the road after the double yellows. All in all a fantastic cottage. Thank you.

  • "Nice comfortable cottage ideal location for many of the local walks."

    Excellent pub just round the corner The only thing for us is the main bed was very soft to lay in but that’s just a personal preference On the whole we had a lovely holiday

  • "The Old Cobblers has been sympathetically renovated keeping many of the historic features."

    Courtyard garden with its water feature was a great place to relax after long walks. Great location to explore the beautiful York Dales and the local pub (Red Lion) had great food and beer.

  • "Great stay, perfect for the dog and a great location for lots of walks!"

    Loved the cottage and village, pub just around the corner and a couple of tea rooms. We will be back very soon! Only improvement would be removing the cobwebs hanging from the beams and maybe a bag of wood to get you started on the fire.

  • "Everything was beautiful, really it was the only two things I would suggest is pillow protectors."

    You do really need to have them on. And the soap in the kitchen and bathroom, would of been nice to have a full dispenser instead of hardly anything in them and had to go out and buy more. Its a very simple thing but just didn't look right almost an empty container given the gorgeous surroundings.

    I’m so glad you enjoyed your holiday. We aim to ensure that everything is absolutely perfect and that the house is fully stocked with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We are sorry that the soap stock was low. Our welcome phone call, message and house info pack gives details of our phone number so you can let us know if you find something is broken or missing so that we can act immediately to fix or replenish it during your stay. Thanks so much for staying. We hope to welcome you again in future. Property Owner

  • "Absolutely superb cottage- every detail is first class."

    Lounge cosy, bedrooms comfy, kitchen practical and social as open plan. Lovely with the fire (needed this year!) and great courtyard outside. Location is perfect- we loved Burnsall- lovely walks from cottage to Hebden & Appletreewick. Grassington great for bookshop and ice creams! We hope to be back one day!

    The outdoor area was lovely, a lot of thought had gone into it. We couldn’t have wanted for a better holiday. Not forgetting the welcome pack. Would thoroughly recommend this cottage. Valerie and Derek

    The facilities provided within the cottage are more than adequate & the owners are extremely keen to ensure a first-class stay. We could not fault anything - excellent!!!

  • "Our stay at the Old Cobblers was absolutely fantastic."

    The standard of the cottage felt like a 5 star hotel and the village it is situated in is beautiful, with a great pub only a stones throw away. There are some beautiful walks right on the doorstep and plenty of things to do as a family not too far away, with one of our favourites being Bolton Abbey.

  • "Stayed at Old Cobblers for 5 nights and have to say the whole experience was top notch."

    We had our four legged friend with us and the cottage was perfect in every way. Safe haven. Brilliant location for accessing all the Dales has to offer. We packed so much into our 4 days. Will most definitely be going back but for a full week.

After a busy day meandering through the Yorkshire dales, snuggle up on either of the plush sofas while the TV plays and the woodburning stove warms the room creating a homely ambience; stay snuggled up here with the kids while your partner rustles up a tasty meal in the kitchen which is fitted with Bosch appliances and is home to everything you will need for your self-catered stay.
