We stay at a very well appointed cottage situated in beautiful landscape. The hosts, Ella and Matt were very friendly and welcoming and made our stay even more pleasant. We couldn't have asked for anymore and we will definitely be booking the cottage again the future. A really great time was had by all.

Stables retreat is a lovely cottage in a brilliant location. It is very well equipped and the owners provided a generous supply of basic items such as cooking oil, clingfilm etc.. We particularly liked the peace and quiet and the easy access to The Dales, The Lakes and the Forest of Bowland. After two weeks we still had plenty of places we would haRead moreve liked to visit. We did have a slight issue with the heating but Ella and Matt were on hand to sort things out. Overall an excellent holiday. Hide
