Excellent accommodation, super clean, warm and comfortable. Very easy to explore the local area either on foot, by train, bus or car...Lydia provided great recommendations for eating out although the cottage is very well equipped for self catering or eating in. We enjoyed both! Highly recommended as a relaxing place to stay.
Meghan30 September 2024The cottage is so beautiful, the pictures don’t do it justice. The space is so clean and kitchen had everything we needed!! We had the best stay at the cottage with our family, had a meal at the local pub which was a very short walk away. Lydia has been a great host for us, and we will hopefully return to the cottage soon for another break away. Thank you for letting us stay! X
Bobby20 September 2024Lovely place. Very clean.
Deb8 September 2024
The house is beautifully furnished and decorated, and beds are very comfortable with good quality bedding and linen. It was spotlessly clean.It was spacious for the two of us and I wouldn’t recommend more than four staying; the lounge only seats four comfortably and the dining table is small; there are only four dining chairs and more than four at the table would be a crush.Most Airbnb properties I have stayed at provide basic kitchen items, and even a welcome pack of milk, bread etc. but we needed to buy these as well as sugar, olive oil, food wrap and additional toilet rolls. Only one t-towel was provided.The fridge is under the counter, with a small freezer compartment. It has a broken shelf, so it is not possible to stand bottles up, as well as limiting storage. We just about managed to fit our food in, but I think a bigger fridge freezer is needed for a property advertised for up to five guests.
Dylan1 September 2024Our stay was lovely and absolutely perfect. We adored the cottage and walking the countryside. Thank you so much!
Julie25 August 2024We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bailey Cottage which is both homely and tastefully furnished. Can recommend!
David22 August 2024Wonderful stay in the perfect location and exceeded every expectation. We will be back and when we are will be staying at Lydia’s!
Emine19 August 2024We had a great stay at this lovely renovated cottage. We found everything we needed during our stay. Lovely decorated house, quiet and lovely neighbourhood, very comfortable beds, and very convenient for the things we wanted to do. Highly recommend it.
Kathy3 August 2024Lovely cottage. On three floors which we hadn't known. Top floor bedroom got very hot, window was velux so had to be shut if any rain. Very comfy beds, lovely duvets and pillows, we all slept well.The kitchen had everything we could have required.Bathroom had good shower with plenty of hot water and toiletries provided. Lovely big, soft bath towels.Gargrave is a beautiful village and offers easy access to the area, with several pubs and restaurants easily accessible, information provided by Lydia in her helpful folder.There is no onsite parking tho the Airbnb site says there is, but we always managed to park close to the cottage, road not a busy one.We really enjoyed our stay and would use again.
Carey21 July 2024A beautiful renovated cottage and surprisingly spacious for a terrace house. Fabulous features. Beautiful comfy beds and bed linens - smelt amazing! Location was faultless. Access to the Dales, walks in the village, pub, restaurant and supermarket all minutes away. Excellent train/bus services to Leeds/Skipton. Thank you for providing toilet rolls, coffee etc. Much appreciated. Attention to detail for cleaning lacking a little. Bits of food on floor of kitchen/toaster crumbs and quite a lot of cobwebs if you look around. Bathroom was fab and spotless but toilet seat moved/did not quite fit? No hanging space on top floor. My only reasons for not going excellent as everything else about our stay was amazing - thank you. We will be back.Load more

We had a lovely, comfortable stay. The cottage has been so nicely done with excellent equipment. ☺ Beautifully renovated and extremely comfortable. ☹ Maybe a door to the attic room.
Larry24 September 2024Comfortable stay in a Homely Cottage ☺ Ambience, homeliness.

A very enjoyable experience all round. ☺ The well located and delightful property was spotlessly clean, very comfortable, had all mod cons and great charachter. ☹ As some previous reviewers have said the lack of a stair rail was a problem for the less nimble. A draining board in the kitchen would have been handy when you just wanted, for example, to swill out some mugs for later use rather than using the dishwasher. Slightly disappointed there was no garden at all.
Jim31 August 2024Lovely Cottage in a great location - will stay again ☺ Excellent location and easy parking near the property. Good wifi, TV and very clean. ☹ Lack of clothes hangers in a couple of the bedrooms.
John13 August 2024Lovely cottage in a great location ☺ Superbly renovated and fitted out cottage. All rooms were very comfortable, the shower was very good with quality toiletries. Kitchen had everything one needed including tea and Nespresso coffee. A small amount of milk would have been nice on arrival though. Great free wifi and smart TV. Good communications with host, Lydia. Village was quiet and had a good Co-op. Bollywood Cottage, Mason Arms and The Frying Yorkshireman were all great for food. We were able to park our three motorcycles outside the cottage on the road and they were very safe. Great base for biking in the Dales!
E4 August 2024Very Good
Colin19 July 2024Excellent ☺ Extremely well presented cottage in an excellent location. Very comfortable bed . Well equipped with everything you need. The cottage has been tastefully renovated to a very high standard, and it's a pleasure to stay there. Thank you for the flowers and fresh farm eggs waiting for us on arrival. ☹ The only thing I didn't like were the stained pillows. Pillow protectors would be a good idea.
Lisa16 July 2024Fabulous cottage in the Yorkshire Dales. Extremely comfortable and spacious for a family of 4.
Louise7 June 2024Wonderful ☺ Good location in Gargrave. Beautiful cottage with everything we needed. Great to have a washing machine. We had good meals at the Swan and Bollywood, as well as enjoying drinks at the Mason Arms. Comfy beds. Very good communication from the host. ☹ We found it strange that the temperature was controlled by the host but when we asked for it to be made warmer they did.
