The enclosed garden is appreciated by dog owners, and the wood burner adds to the cosy feel. Some guests noted the property is snug for larger groups but perfect for smaller ones.
The majority of guests found the cottage to be clean and comfortable. However, a few mentioned the presence of slugs and mice, and cobwebs, indicating occasional lapses in cleanliness.
The location is highly praised for its peace, quiet, and access to moor walks. It's also within a reasonable distance from attractions and amenities, though the access road can be challenging for some vehicles.
The cottage is generally considered comfortable, especially for smaller parties. The lounge and wood burner are highlights, though some guests found the upstairs area and bathroom to be on the smaller side.

Mr Harding
It should be made clear that the access road to the field should not used by a saloon car as mine became stuck and only when a local farmer assisted me could i park in the gravel layby which was mentioned in the informationm sheet in the cottage, but not prior to arriving.

Really lovely location, peaceful and easy access to some beautiful walks and places of interest. The cottage is very quaint and good for two people and ideal for dogs, family of four may find it a little small but acceptable. Garden perfect and secure for dogs and a lovely view. Really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely return loved the location and peacefulness of the area.

Lovely stay in a great location to explore the North Yorkshire moors. The dogs loved the garden space and it was very secure. The dogs also liked sitting and watching the sheep.
