Perfect cosy cottage
We had a wonderful Christmas in a warm and cosy cottage that was beautifully furnished and well equipped. The cottage was very close to everything we needed. Our hosts were superb, helpful with excellent communications. The treats left for us and the dog too was kind and very much appreciated. Would highly recommend a stay here.

Lovely little cottage
Amazing little place. Ideal for a couple with a dog or 2! Could also take a child with a travel cot. The place is just off the main street so ideal location. 25 mins to Harrogate and 55 mins to York. Royal Oak pub was great for food but if you don't want to eat out then the kitchen is well stocked. Hosts were both lovely and helpful when contacted. We'll be back for sure. 😊

Ideal location, heart of the town
We live not far from Pateley Bridge and know the place well, by stopping at this cottage we were not disappointed at all. The cottage is bang in the middle and whichever way you go, it is not far to amenities. Cottage was easy to access , we know parking is not outside but plenty available at no cost very close by. Place was great for a couple , layout and facilities are just fine. Welcome gift perfect! We went on a wet and windy August weekend and used the wood burner! Would not have normally bothered but it brought the cottage to life and as we could feel the warmth on a damp and miserable day outside lifted the spirits🙂 Visited pubs and shops in the neighborhood, all were good ( particularly Royal Oak PH) and we especially enjoyed the pancake cafe at the bridge end of the main street. Visited the Scar House Reservoir when the rain cleared and walked along the Nidd too. All very good, and looking to go for another weekend retreat

An idilic little cottage. Cosy and welcoming front room with a log fire. The property offers fresh bedding and towels, kitchen with ammenties including a dishwasher. Jill and Julie left us a scrummy cake most kind. There is a small seating area outside the back. We love it here the locals are extremely friendly and helpful. Trip to Harrogate is half hour away and Ripon about the same with some little shops . Definitely another visit we plan on making it a yearly thing. Beautiful views and walks.

Good communication with owner about access to the cottage and parking options. We managed to park everyday just up from the cottage next to the church which was really handy and free! The interior of the cottage is very clean and and all rooms look as if they have just been updated (the photos do not do the cottage justice). The kitchen is well equipped with everything you might need. The bathroom has a big shower which is extremely powerful. The cottage is off the main street but only a few steps away. Pately Bridge has two excellent butchers and the Crown pub does excellent meals.

Perfect Pateley (almost)
The property fitted our needs very well & the town is delightful. The only issue was with the joining instructions which said we must pick up the keys from a tea shop on the high street when in fact they were in a key safe on the property. After a 5 hr drive I was not in the mood for problems but the new owners of the tea shop were very helpful & disaster averted. Parking is an issue in the town & should be highlighted before arrival.

We arrived with no issues, cottage is beautiful for us with two giant dogs it was just right. The area itself it very picturesque and plenty of walks around the area. People were welcoming. We ate at the local pubs and Indian and the food was good. We went over New Year so was extra special the only small detail which has nothing to do with the cottage is some of the shops were closed for eg the oldest sweet shop, obviously that means we will have to go back another time during the year!!

Walking out of the front door right on to the road Cars coming up the very narrow street far too fast Parking was a big issue Very small area to the back of the cottage for sitting out side Bathroom window was over looked by the cottages at the back

Cottage was lovely. Good shower and all you would need for your stay in the cottagee. Bed was very comfortable .Small seating area out back but too small to sit out there with our dogs. There is no parking at the cottage and you can't always get parked at the top of the road either. Village was lovely with lots of lovely local shops and a great park/walking area for the dogs down at the bottom of the road..

What a lovely cottage
Me and my wife stayed at the keys cottage for 4 nights. Everything you need is there for a good stay. The old sweet shop and butchers just 4 doors away. The crown pub has best meals italians and the oak pub not so good. The cream scone and jam are left out for when you arrive at the cottage scrumptious. Hope this helps we will be back.

Lovely, comfortable and very clean cottage in the middle of Pateley Bridge. Getting the key was expertly explained by Julie. Great base for visiting local places of interest. Strongly advise you to visit Brimham Rocks only 10 mins o car. Would definitely recommend you booking as you get a lovely cream tea when you arrive.
