Beautiful hotel let down by the pool
"Hotel was lovely. Very clean and comfortable. However the fitness centre/swimming pool let it down. The jacuzzi was cold and not much in the way of loungers in pool area. There was chips in wood and paint works and pool area itself was cold. This was completely at odds with the hotel."

Welcoming and homely
"Great base to explore the Dales, very well equipped cottage in a very quiet village within easy reach of local pubs, a cafe and superb riverside walks. With a glass of wine, the wood burner lit, and a good book, it is ideal for a restful break. Would not hesitate to return, at any time of year."
