A family week in the Dales

Lovely little cottage. Clean, warm, and well stocked with pretty much everything you would need to get a family through 5 days. Location is stunning and pretty remote so don't expect a shop close by and come prepared with your food basics. If you want a few days away from it all reading your book or walking locally its perfect. Netflix on the evening was a bit hit and miss but no big deal. We drove a little further afield to the Waterfall trail at Ingleton. An hour away but just beautiful and well worth the drive.
Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2023
