The Old Post Office - Giggleswick

Our second stay here and once again we had a great time! Great amenities - Good shower, big bed, comfy sofa and a good range of cooking equipment. Great location - close to Settle, opposite the pub and great walks nearby.

Nothing- except a few spiders in the bathroom 🕷

We originally booked this accommodation for our team while they were working in the local area, aiming to save them the hassle of a long commute after their shifts. The team was very happy with their stay; the house was exactly what they needed. We especially appreciated how helpful and accommodating our host was, particularly when we needed to extend our dates at the last minute. The location and the house are both lovely, and we can highly recommend staying here. Best regards, 2 Valleys

Property was fairly clean. Good kitchen facilities. Heating worked well in most rooms. Central location.

No parking on arrival - didn't realise Giggleswick school was chucking out for the weekend. Poor maintenance: shower door handle, sofa throws feel like they need a good wash, matted cushion covers, curtains in lounge not pulling easily. A lack of the usual extra little things you can find in holiday cottages: no matches for birthday candles, no foil to protect cooker, no games - not even a pack of cards. The stairs are dangerous! Something should be done: not only super-steep, but uneven, the handrail is too high and at head height at one point, nothing to stop you falling into the kitchen. I would not have wanted to stay there with children or older people.

Great location, bedrooms lovely and spacious

Living room floor sticky from previous drink had to clean. Toilet seat wonky

Location was perfect, very conveniently located near a wonderful, friendly pub. Lovely village.

Unfortunately there had been a mix up between owner and booking.com so the house was not prepared for our visit, and when we entered the property, it had not been cleaned, beds not changed, rubbish in bins etc. We had to go to pub and wait till nearly 9pm before we could come back and prepare a meal etc. However, the owner came over as soon as he could, and sorted it and we really enjoyed our stay at the beautiful cottage, and he made sure we would be compensated, so we were happy with the way the problem was sorted. I would definitely book the cottage again.

The property was well sited, close to the countryside and a couple of nice pubs and a short walk from the town of Settle. It was very warm, quiet and clean and whilst very simply furnished there were three good sized double bedrooms. I felt it was good value for money.

Bathroom fixtures and fittings could do with a refresh (wonky toilet seat for example) but didn't affect my view of the property.

Very clean and tidy

The old post office was welcoming, charming and comfortable with a great location to explore the Yorkshire Dales from. We also loved the little outdoor seating area. Wish we had had more time in Giggleswick.

Comfort of beds Character of the cottage Good facilities and equipment

Really furnished cottage in a wonderful location. Walking distance from Settle, with a good number of restaurants and shops and a lot of nice walking. The house it does have everything you need for your holiday. Other people complained for the parking but, there was a free parking just 2 minutes from the house.

WiFi works just downstairs. Almost impossible to connect from the bedroom and it often needs a restart. The stairs are a little bit steep, such is understandable being an old building, but maybe needs a railing on the side. It is slightly dangerous especially if you have little kids you need to be extra cautious.
