This property is an ideal romantic base for 2 to enjoy this area of the Dales. The property was clean, nicely decorated and adequately furnished to a high standard. The bathroom and bedroom were comfortable, clean and well maintained. If only the weather had been as good as this property then the holiday would have been perfect. I would recommend staying here and look forward to returning in the future.
