Lovely property, very modern and warm. Owner left a nice welcome basket. The views are incredible, nice sitting area outside, the driveway up to the property has a decent size grassed area which was useful for my dog. I found some good walks from the property + only a short drive to attractions like ingleborough cave Overall a great experience

Lovely warm welcome , photos do not do the property justice. Thank you for the lovely festive welcome pack- very much appreciated. We booked the break for a firework-free new year, knowing it was on a working farm and thoroughly enjoyed a peaceful break, and would not hesitate to book again.

The cottage is a fantastic building and credit to the building skills of the owner. Pleasantly laid out it provides everything you need to make your stay a very pleasant experience. The owner Mr Terry Priestly is on hand without being intrusive indeed although we knew he was there we only saw him three of four times.

A lovely, well appointed little cottage with quality fixtures and fittings. It was cosy when needed and had stunning views out towards the three peaks. Lots to see and do in the local area. Just a note to dog owners...there is a small, semi enclosed garden area shared with the other property but it is not dog proof and there are several curious henRead mores about...dogs on leads. The host was very helpful and friendly, and provided eggs, bread, milk and biscuits on arrival. Would stay again! Hide

We had a great week at Pear Tree. The photos do not do it justice. It was clean and cosy with a well equipped kitchen. Plenty of room, fab shower. The view from the kitchen window is superb. Easy to reach the coast or the lakes. We had a very relaxing week.

A very will situated holiday cottage on a friendly farm - with easy access to The Dales and The Lakes. The views were stunning! We were very comfortable, and the kitchen had all the cooking equipment we could ever need! Our little girl enjoyed meeting the cows and chickens!
