Perfect break, beautiful cottage to relax and recharge ready for the nights drawing in. The bonus was the owls in the trees down the lane. Fully recommend.

We had a great stay in this lovely cottage, it is well equipped and finished to a high standard. There are many walks nearby and owners have provided useful maps and lots of local information. The staff at Ingrid Flute's Yorkshire Holiday Cottages are very helpful. The booking procedure was quick and smooth, the staff sorted out a minor issue very swiftly on arrival and were in touch afterwards to ensure everything was fine. A great service.

Great to be back in Gayle after 18 years. Loved this cottage, so well appointed and comfortable. A great place for the lovely local walks.

Great cottage, everything you need. Lovely and clean, great position and views. Came to do the Three Peaks challenge but one at a time. Every day and each peak were very different, amazed we both completed them. The food at The White Hart is beautiful.
