Everything possible has been done to provide a comfortable base to explore the stunning Dales area.the property was immaculate in presentation, cleanliness and decoration was 10/10 unfortunately the only thing that let it down was that although on a side road it was incredibly noisy from traffic racing up and down. If you have any mobility issues then the steps at the front and the internal stairs are quite steep.
