“We were warmly welcomed by the owner to this lovely, cosy cottage in a very pretty village.”
It sleeps 4 comfortably and has large, roomy rooms, with a number of appliances: washing machine, tumble dryer, dishwasher, microwave. The kitchen is well equipped. And we enjoyed the home made cakes that were left for us.
The shared rear garden is large and private and can be secured if necessary. We found it was easier to let the dog out onto the front for a quick visit if necessary as that is easily secured by a garden gate.
We managed to get the free-sat working by wiggling a cable, so we had sufficient television to watch for our very short stay when we weren't out and about exploring the area, for which Ravenstonedale is very well placed.
Our only niggle was we couldn't get the radiator to work in the double bedroom and the windows are very draughty, so it was a bit chilly in there. No doubt had we been staying longer, the owner would have fixed it for us had we asked. The king size mattress seems to be an orthopedic mattress too, which might suit some but not others.
We had a lovely stay, though, and would visit again.
