  First impressions were “Wow!

  ” This place is amazing and even better than the photos. The gardens are perfect for strolling around and playing with the dogs. Farm animals all around which was lovely and the sound of running water from the beck adjoining the lodge. Inside, absolutely loved the decor, beautiful pictures and hangings on walls and high standard of charming furnishings. Not usually such high quality in rentals. Hot tub was fab. A welcome card, bottle of Prosecco and my favourite chocs just topped it off! Had a text off Andra to say the lodge was ready for us half an hour earlier which was really helpful and communication with our hosts was very good. The only thing negative about our week’s stay was the gas company was working with pneumatic drills at the Holiday Park just across the beck from 9am each weekday, but of course this was totally unforeseeable and out of the control of our hosts and did not stop us from loving this place. We had a wonderful relaxing and fun time here and would like to thank Andra and Chris for such a beautiful place for us to experience and would really like to return.

  Hello, We returned yesterday from our stay at lock view and the four of us had such a gorgeous stay!

  The facilities are amazing and the location is great, on the canal! Do not let the housing estate you arrive through put you off. Amazing to have a coffee machine, dishwasher, tumble dryer etc - these were extras I didnt see advertised which made the stay extra comfortable. We loved the sauna and hot tub! Our friends who slept downstairs did mention the curtains let in quite a lot of light in the morning but we didn't have this issue upstairs. We visited Malham cove and that area, where we walked the loop of 5.1 miles which was beautiful. Be careful of the stairs though, I would recommend going the loop from Janet foss to malham cove rather than the other way around so you are gong down steps rather than up them, you'll also have to be very mobile, saying that i'm 8.5 months pregnant and managed. Keelham farm shop ( 5 min drive away) is so worth a visit, for a farm shop its very reasonable. Also Skipton woods was awesome. We met Kyle and his dad, they were both lovely and friendly. Not cheap, but we felt well worth the money, Thanks again Victoria

  What a fabulous house in a lovely location - the views and access to wonderful places.

  We loved the location of the house, the style of the house, the standard of design and facilities such as hot tub/sauna and kitchen, were all great. The hosts were very friendly and communications were top drawer. But, we must admit that the beds were really uncomfortable. Set up as a double didn't work as the individual beds had sunk so badly, and the springs were ever-present - even as a single. The connecting zip became a barrier to be together and very uncomfortable. Also, in all the airBnBs we've stayed in, the leaving requirements were by far the most comprehensive. Strip beds and put in a sack, empty bins, empty dishwasher and put everything away, clean down. All before 10AM departure. I was left wondering what the 'cleaning service' actually did. The wine and chocolates were really appreciated, but no spare toilet rolls, no shower/bath products for the beautiful baths and showers was a shame.

  Stayed here for 4 nights in October.

  Communication was excellent with queries swiftly answered. We were lucky to have great weather during our stay although there had been nothing but rain in the previous weeks. The lodge is spotless and very comfortable. The bed was sooo comfy if very high! Loads of towels, kitchen well equipped although no welcome pack so you need to take all food you will need. Nice bottle of Prosecco and chocolates made up for that! Hot tub divine. Only negative is that awful track to it. Huge water filled potholes (because of the previous rain) impossible to avoid made for very nervous trips down it. Our car is low so we dreaded the journey every time and it will be spending a long time in the car wash! It is a fabulously secluded place and would love to stay again but only if there had been good weather previously.

  The owner herself was fabulous and went out of her way to give useful information and equip the cottage really well.

  A good supply of towels etc was provided and everything was clean and freshly laundered. We really struggled with the interior lighting which was far too dark. Reading a book was hard as was using the cooker when you have your back to the light. I needed a torch to find things in bags kept in the bedroom with the bunk beds. There was nowhere in the bedrooms to unpack (no drawers etc) and no real room to provide them, I wouldn’t recommend this property for bigger parties for this reason. The kitchen facilities were excellent but couldn’t really be used properly as there was nowhere where you could put food which we had to keep in the lounge area and the fridge was too small to be really useful. In terms of milk for drinks and cereal, there was only room for one carton in the door.
