Blades Cottage

Reviews

Just spent the past week in a very sunny Yorkshire! The weather was a bonus because Blades Cottage was just great - a stylish, cosy and warm home....even though it was sunny we still wanted to light the log burner in the evening . The most beautiful and peaceful setting with just the sheep for neighbours. I would highly recommend this to any couple wanting peace, quiet, long walks, fab scenery and home comforts.

A return to Yorkshire after a few years absence. Just stunning. The cottage is a delight and so comfortable. Thank you.

What a lovely weekend we have had at Blades Cottage. The sun was shining for our whole stay. In the evenings we watched the lambs jumping around in the fields whilst we sat in the garden with a glass of fizz. Plenty of nice walks and drinks in the Moorcock Inn. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Wonderful little cottage. We have had such a lovely time. We would recommend the waterfall walk at Ingleton . The recommended circular drive to Ingleton (in the welcome pack) was fab.

Enjoyed our week . Comfortable cottage and lovely location. Peaceful walks from the door - including one through thick snow!! Thanks for the chocolates etc.

To say we have been lucky with the weather would be an understatement. Everything perfect with the cottage and lovely to be able to walk straight from the door. Moorcock Inn very friendly and good pub food.

Perfect little cottage, everything you could possibly want. We loved the peaceful surroundings. No phone or internet a rare treat. The Moorcock Inn is a nice traditional pub with man size servings. The stunning drive to Ingleton was well worth it.

We booked the cottage for a romantic getaway to celebrate a birthday. It was absolutely perfect. The cottage itself is in a remote area, ten minutes away from Hawes. It's was sparkling clean and had everything anyone needs for a long weekend--soaps, body creams, Molton Brown bath products, tea, coffee and biscuits to name but a few. Being January we experienced all weathers from frost with sun, when we did a short walk, to rain and wind when we went into Hawes for a meal to blizzarding snow when we became stuck with the school buses on the Moorcock Inn corner. it all added to the experience and beauty of the area. On arrival the cottage was freezing cold so the only improvement I could suggest is to have the heating put on in advance of clients arriving to make it more welcoming. However, within a couple of hours and throughout our stay, it was toasty warm. As advertised, there is no WiFi but that was a great advantage to us and as we packed to leave we realised we hadn't heard the word "Brexit" once. We felt sad to leave to return back to the real world but we felt refreshed and content.

Had a fabulous week welcoming in the new year. Weather kept dry, perfect for several long walks and plenty of exploring. The cottage was a perfectly cosy base- we had terrific meals in this very well equipped kitchen, and backgammon by the fire.

Such a lovely Christmas escape. Lots of beautiful touches, comfy beds and roaring fire! We will miss the views!

Absolutely loved the cottage, the perfect place for a secluded few days away. Had the most relaxing time and didn't want to leave!

A great stay in this lovely cottage. Would definitely return.

What an idyllic place! The perfect secluded spot four honeymoon.

Wha t a beautiful, cosy cottage with everything you could want and so warm. Had a fantastic week with lots of wildlife and walks.

What a wonderful cottage in a wild and peaceful place; clean, comfy and cosy, home from home.

Remote, quiet, scenic, warm, clean, welcoming. All very lovely. Hope to come again to same. Thank you to you and landlord

Great hospitality in this 'wild' place. We loved it!

Interesting places to go out to and a lovely cottage to come back to.

Such a lovely cottage right in the heart of The Yorkshire Dales. We had a nice, quiet, tranquil stay. The decor is fitting for the cottage. We particularly enjoye the fire.

We chose the property for the location & we were not disapointed, either by the surrounding scenery or the quality of the cottage itself. All in all a brilliant holiday.

What a delightful cottage. Superb facilities surrounded by absolute serenity. This cottage forms a perfect base for walking. Hawes offers all local amenities & the local scenery is amazing. Waking up to the little lambs, curlews & other wildlife will be missed. We shall be back to this lovely place. THANKYOU!

Well what a wonderful relaxing, comfortable stay we have had. It really couldn't have been better, We don't want to leave. Thank you so much John and Margaret for letting us experience our stay in this wonderful cottage.

Blades Cottage is just perfect; the cottage is comfortable, cosy, beautifully decorated and furnished along with super comfy beds. Located down a private and peaceful track the views are stunning from every window. Hawes is 6 miles away offering most amenities, the Moorcock a mere 20 min walk, and stunning walking, indeed the 3 peaks, is all at hand. Can’t recommend this cottage enough.

Enjoyed our stay here very much. Good location for walking. A warm welcome at Moorcock Inn.

Outstanding cottage in remote yet central location with all amenities one could hope for. Will definitely be back!

A perfect retreat from fast pace life; Blades offers everything you could want from a rental, and more. We thoroughly enjoyed watching the lambs ,Grouse and listening to the Curlews and other birds. Walking each day and returning to a log fire was wonderful. Food at Moorcock Inn is limited, but such lovely people. Can highly recommend The White Hart @ Hawes, delicious. We will most certainly return. .Thank you Margaret.

Lovely cottage clean and cosy. Plenty of walks and wildlife. Lots of places to visit and shop. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to get away from city life. Loved it. A big thank you to Margaret and John.

This was our second time visiting Blades cottage. We love it here and will be returning again. Very relaxing with everything you need for a comfortable home away from home type of stay. We did a lovely walk from Hawes to Aysgill Force.

What a great place, clean, cosy and all amenities you need. Had a great couple of days walking the moors. Great location for a secluded retreat. No doubt will be coming back to this great cottage.

Great Location - Had everything we needed.

We had a great stay in this wonderful cottage. We made use of all the facilities and love the way the cottage has been laid out. The bathroom downstairs helped when we got soaked on a walk to the train station! We managed to see loads of wildlife, the pheasants kept us on our toes as we walked through the fields. the walks are great.

Wow what a beautiful cottage! All amenities well thought out and provided for. We have had a perfect Christmas getaway. We are booking again for the summer!

Beautiful! Inspiring! Snowy! Just spent 3 lovely, quiet and very snowy nights at this stunning cottage and would highly recommend it. The location is quiet and serene, with breathtaking views of the dales. The cottage itself has been furnished to a very high standard and wanted for nothing. Welcome pack was supplied with Tea,coffee,sugar,milk and biscuits and the little log burner all set up to light....literally walked in and relaxed. The recent wintry weather meant that the snow was 5 inches deep in places- might not suit all, but it made our stay even better - although the access was a bit problematic and had we not had a front wheel drive vehicle we might have needed the assistance of the ever so friendly farmer next door. Brilliant place to stay and chill out

Had a lovely stay in a warm cosy cottage. Really enjoyed seeing red squirrels and the short walks from the cottage.

Beautiful location the views were breath taking, with plenty of places to walk. Its less than ten minutes to Hawes. We thought the track to the cottage may be a problem in the winter, but it was so well maintained it was no problem. The cottage is very comfortable and well equipped and the location is superb! We would definitely return.

A lovely relaxing stay over Christmas, A perfect spot, off the road but nearby some spectacular things to see. Excellent walking and especially the cosy fire.
