A Fabulous break away

We had a wonderful 2 night stay, Julie was an amazing host and answered all my questions about the working dairy farm. Julie let us work around the farm and see the cows and the calves. Such a beautiful setting and so peaceful. We can’t wait to return.

It was ok, stunning views.

Well it was just nice… I personally had issues and would only give it a 3 star rating. Don’t quite understand how everyone gave it 5*… that is really misleading and unfair for the next family. Yes the place was lovely but you don’t have everything you need. Baring in mind you have to travel and need your own items, the bare essentials was not available but you may be able to obtain them if you ask. I personally didn’t want to constantly ask and felt like I was being bothersome. The wifi was very poor, connection in one room only! 4 coffee capsules only, maybe details of the coffee machine should be mentioned, so one can bring some from home, if they are not going to be topped up daily. The cake selection in the dome, as a welcome hamper was dry and stale, The kids games were all over the place… no not one card game or a full family game, baring in my mind no wifi so what is one to do? Not one non-stick pan😑, No foil no cling film, No dish scrubber, The tv wasn’t compatible to use with wifi or Netflix. No salt or pepper, had to ask Coffee was old and stale so I bought my own after the 4 pods finished. The one jug of milk was welcoming. No baking facilities So it was back to basic dvds for the 3 nights. The town was lovely the view was lovely but everything to do in Otley was closed by this time of year or weekend openings only. Then to top it off the heating stopped working after the first night of our 3 night stay and had to use electric heating.
