Reviews of Betty's Cottage

"We stayed in 'Betty's Cottage' for a long weekend in February. The village of Gargrave is quiet, picturesque and well serviced by local shops and pubs. The cottage was spacious and very well equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing break. Being a cold February, having the wood burner was an extra treat. The cottage was centrally heated anyway, so it wasn't entirely necessary for us to use the wood burner, but it just added to the atmosphere. We throughly enjoyed our stay and we plan to return."

"Stayed for 6 nights in this lovely cottage. Very well appointed, and equipped. All the home comforts including a very easy to use log fire. Excellent location for exploring the Dales, and the village of Gargrave is very pretty with a moby local pub (Masons Arms). We have walked for miles with our very contented (and knackered!) Dog. Thank you so much to the owners of the fabulous Betty's Cottage. We will be back !"

"We are coming towards the end of our visit to Betty's Cottage. It suits us really very well. An old cottage that has been updated into a warm cosy dwelling . We are out and about all day and it's lovely to come home to such a well designed cottage . Everything is deliciously well thought out.The bathroom and kitchen are big and beautifully fitted and the sitting room and bedroom are both really comfortably furnished. Gargrave is a lovely village and Skipton, a great market town is only five miles away. We are not traditional walkers with dedicated boots and clothes, more amblers with our dogs. We've walked, or ambled, miles this week and not yet seen or done a quarter of the thing we planned. A fine excuse to return."

"Betty's Cottage was extremely well presented, everything we needed was there. It was clean, comfortable & very warm which in February, after some long walks was lovely. It is very close to good restaurants, a well stocked local shop, and some very good walks. Will definitely be recommending Betty's Cottage to my friends & family."

"Betty's Cottage is a very comfortable cottage. The location is ideal as a base. The owners take a lot of trouble to welcome you to the cottage, if only all cottages could be as nice. Excellent."

"The cottage was great, with a comfy bed, lovely furnishings and a shiny new bathroom and kitchen, plus everything you would need. The village of Gargrave was an unexpected bonus with lovely village greens and river with stepping stones - we knew about the canal of course! All in all a really lovely place to stay."

"A very well equipped and cosy cottage. Excellent location for exploring the Dales, including good walks from the cottage. There was a food shop near by, two pubs in the village and an Indian restaurant, all good ones. There was parking right outside the door. Highly recommended."

"Although small, Betty's Cottage is extraordinarily spacious. The rooms are quite generous in size, so there's no squeezing or ducking! Furnishing and decoration is all to a very high standard and the wood-burner is fabulous, with a great supply of logs and kindling. The position of the cottage is ideal, very central, but away from the busy A65. The off street parking is a bonus. We hugely enjoyed the short break and will want to return."
