First off, a note of caution: please read the welcome info carefully, as you will need to bring your own towels and may also wish to bring paper towels and toilet paper (the latter is supplied but not abundant). I'm putting this at the beginning of my review because there is nowhere to buy these things without a 30-minute drive, so it's really important. This charming attached cottage is in one of the most peaceful and secluded locations I've ever stayed in -- in the mornings, you awaken to the sound of sheep and birdsong, and cars are quite rare. The gardens surrounding the cottage and adjacent dwellings are beautifully tended. The cottage itself was spotless and cozy: two comfortable couches in the living room, an enormous and vastly comfortable king-size bed in the main bedroom, thoughtful touches throughout. We would absolutely stay here again. To reach the cottage, there are several routes, but we ended up driving across the moor, which was a lovely introduction to this part of Yorkshire. The kitchen is very well-equipped. Here are a few notes that visitors may find helpful: dishwasher tablets are supplied, but only a few, so you may want to bring some for a longer stay; likewise, no laundry detergent is supplied; the bathroom can be quite chilly, so turn on towel warmer a few hours before you take your shower; best to bring your own spices, tea, sugar, etc.; dishes are in LR cabinet and silverware in table. Note: only bathroom is downstairs (tricky at night).
