We hade a lovely say with all the family,Hot tub was amazing, the house was 10 out 10 on cleanliness Everything you wish for ,the two little dachshund loved it too x
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this superb property. The views were a delight and the hot tub was an added bonus. It was clean, comfortable and well equipped. Thank you!
A really lovely property in excellent condition with first class facilities. The kitchen has a really high spec, it amazed us what it could do! Our only gripes were the very squeaky doors to the bedrooms and the motion detector lights in the bedrooms but it truly is a lovely property and we would recommend it at a drop of a hat. The views were stunning, especially from the hot tub
Beautiful location and everything we needed to have an amazing holiday with family from Canada ,so very special .
Communication excellent with hosts throughout.
Excellent property well equipped quiet spot, well equipped. Great location for exploring Yorkshire Dales especially Wharfedale.
Quiet, private location, comfortable and clean accommodation with plenty of outdoor space and pleasant views. Will be looking at returning.
It was a wonderful property. Perfect for what we needed for an extended family get together as Laura has missed Xmas due to Ambulance Service night shifts.
The location was ideal for us and the house was very well equipped. On a sunny day the building did get warm, but open a couple of doors and some fresh Yorkshire air blows through. Skipton surprised me - what a lovely town.
We travelled as a family with tow young children. The accommodation was excellent, very modern, clean and got everything we needed. The location is ideal if you want peace and quiet, but close enough to the small village of Embsay and a short drive to Skipton. We will be back.
This is a beautiful property in glorious part of the country.
Everything you could possibly want is provided by the owners. There is also plenty of everything so no washing up every time you have a cup of tea or use a plate.
Communication with the owner is excellent and very informative.
A wonderful place to stay and I highly recommend it.
We had a lovely 2 night stay here, the house is beautifully finished with lots of space.
The hot tub was a very welcome addition and we made good use of the living space. Ann was brilliant at providing all the information in advance. My only slight request would be to have some larger pans, cooking for 7 with a small frying pan was quite tricky!! Thanks Ann, we hope to return.
A wonderful property in a great location to enjoy the wonderful Yorkshire Dales. The property had a good range of kitchen utensils etc.. and cook books. All bedrooms were a great size. The views and local walks were lovely and overall a wonderful base for my husband's 50th birthday while he walked drom Bowness to Ilkley ( we know its usually done in the opposite direction)
We had a wonderful few days at the lodge. Lots of room inside and out to accommodate all the family. Plenty of glasses, serving dishes and everything you need to cook for a larger group. We enjoyed family meals around the large table and also enjoyed the BBQ and breakfast on the outside seating area. Adults and children enjoyed watching the wildlife in the field, listening to the owls from the hub tub of an evening. Honestly everything has been thought about to make a family break easy. We will definitely be back.
From the first message I sent to the host to the last message, the communication has been amazing! If I could have scored any higher I would have! Exactly as described and more, stunning property with wonderful decor to suit the stables! The surrounding area of the property, the fields, the decking and patio area is all set up lovely and very well thought through from the gardens to the rooms, bedrooms and bathrooms. It’s all very family orientated, all of the little things are very well thought through. We all loved it. It’s very modern and what’s even better is it’s disability friendly which was what I was looking for specifically!! Would definitely go back again!! Bonus was we got to see and meet the cows as the came for their dinner from and to the field that passes the property! The bath was also a star of the show for our family!
From the moment we booked the owner (Ann) made sure we felt welcome. Ann couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating from recommending places to eat and things to do to making sure the house was ready for us. She even put up a Christmas tree and decorations. The home was exactly as described and everything was in good working order. Embsay is a lovely little village and the pubs make you feel very welcome and serve good food at good prices. Skipton is a short drive away and is a very pretty town with a nice array of shops etc. We took our dog with us so managed to walk around the village and surrounding area and the views are stunning. Would highly recommend but please don’t book Christmas just in case we are able to return!!!!
We found the property an ideal base for the Yorkshire Dales, plenty of walking during our stay and the Hot Tub was a very welcome relaxation after a long day out on the hills.
Signal was fine, we did not miss having no Wifi as it helped stop us looking on line so much and unwind more
Loved our stay. Gorgeous house in beautiful quiet location. Lots to do in the area. Owners were very responsive and helpful. Multi generational group with dogs - we all loved it. Hot tub was idyllic with fabulous views and dark starry nights. We would definitely go back.
The property was absolutely beautiful and impeccably clean. We had a hiccup on arrival courtesy of a fuse blowing but other than that we had a lovely weekend. The outlook was fabulous and the setting very peaceful
Kirk Stables is a lovely modern renovation of an old stables in a beautiful setting. Property is as it shows in the photos. It's well supplied to get your stay started. Ann, the host was very responsive.
A group of 8 of us stayed recently to celebrate a 40th birthday.
The house was perfect for us, and had everything we needed for our stay. You could tell the hosts had taken time to think about everything you could need during your stay.
The location is beautiful; it felt isolated but was a short drive to Skipton making it very convenient.
Ann was a fabulous host and quickly responded to our questions and queries.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and wouldn’t hesitate to book again!
