Lovely little cottage, the local pub shop and restaurant are all very welcoming. The owners were very approachable and made our visit very enjoyable. Several castles/estates in the area for day trips out.

Kitten Cottage had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The owner was very hospitable and had left us milk, orange, tea bags, biscuits and fudge as well as pods for the coffee machine. The sofa is very comfortable and it was nice to sit and relax after going out for the day. There is a shop next door selling all the essentials and two pubs Read morein the village. The Cottage is well situated between Hawes and Leyburn. Overall, we had a lovely stay, thank you. Hide
