A little gem
Beautiful cosy and comfortable cottage ideally situated in the glorious setting of Grassington. Local pubs and food were great. People very friendly and welcoming. Stunning scenery and even managed to see Wharfdale play rugby on Saturday (yes they won). Would definitely come back, almost forgot an epic trip to Wensleydale to the cheese makers. Absolutely fascinating and lots of cheese purchased

Cozy Cottage
We very much enjoyed staying at this little cottage- well located for hiking and the village is big enough to have plenty of amenities for eating, groceries, pharmacy but still quiet. The cottage was clearly well cared for and we had plenty of space for two of us. We especially enjoyed the bright breakfast nook and had everything we needed for light cooking. Would love to return to beautiful Yorkshire!

We had a fabulous time in Grassington. The cottage was very cosy but not at all cramped. Attention to detail has been well executed The log burner was a massive positive adding to the cottages charm It was centrally placed with everything practically on your doorstep. We would definitely love to visit again sometime

We really enjoyed this cottage. Very quiet area (a little hard to find). This was a very cozy adorable cottage that has everything you need. WiFi was great so we could stream ‘All creatures great and small’. Adorable breakfast nook for drinking coffee while looking outside.

Grassington summer days.
The cottage was well-appointed and comfortable with all the equipment required that you would expect. The small garden was also a nice feature especially during the lovely weather we were lucky to have. The only downside was the very limited parking available nearby. We decided to leave our car in the large Yorkshire Dales Information Centre carpark and booked a place for the week which worked fine for us. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Grassington and wouldn't hesitate to stay at the cottage again.

Yorkshire Dales at its best!
The cottage was wonderful --very clean, well-equipped, just as lovely as it appears in the listing. It is tucked away from the nearby lane (where we were always able to find parking) so very quiet and peaceful. It's a short walk to the center of Grassington, which has many places to eat and a Co-Op market. We were lucky enough to be there when filming for All Creatures Great and Small was ongoing! All in all, a great experience. We highly recommend this cottage.
