The White Cottage

Everything about the cottage is exceptional, clean and comfortable, helpful hosts, comfy beds, warm, excellent.

Couldn't fault it.

Very spacious & well equipped

Lack of space in the yard

Beautiful, clean quirky cottage. Great location. Amazing bathroom. Beds uncomfortable though, which was a shame.

The only issue we had was the back door lock didn't work very well. It was difficult to lock and unlock the door at times and there was no front door key so we had to use the back door even though on the gate it said not to use at night as it bang loudly when closing

The cottage very nice and location was beautiful.

The beds uncomfortable and some of the door keys didn't work and the key code lock was broken..

Great location and cosy

No iron and ironing board

We liked the styling of the cottage. It’s located in Gargrave which has a choice of country pubs, a lovely Indian restaurant and tea room. There’s a really lovely walk along the river and easy access to the Yorkshire dales

The cottage is apparently for sale and possibly why the cleaning and general maintenance is lacking. Damp musty smell when e trying the cottage Damp patches on the ceilings in the living room and bedrooms, with a patch of black mould on the ceiling in the double bedroom, not pleasant to sleep in (assume that is why dehumidifiers were being used in both bedrooms) Living room rug dirty/ grubby All skirting boards thick with dust and dirty particularly behind radiators No mattress protector on double bed Heavily stained mattress on double bed ( only saw this as there was a note in the bedroom asking for bedding to be removed and placed in the bathroom with used towels at the end of the stay, supposedly for guest safety) Poor quality bedding (not the actual bed linen)- lumpy pillows and lots of rips in double duvet exposing filling Good crumbs inside the microwave and finger prints all over the outside door Lots of food crumbs along fridge/freezer door seals Grubby kitchen under sink cupboard Rusty kitchen sink drain Back yard in need of washing down and painting Cottage in need of some general maintenance and good housekeeping
