Smooth booking, contact with host & access. Easy road parking outside & easy to find. Property as expected, well appointed, with clear, helpful instructions that weren't just rules. Bathroom & bedroom good quality & we slept well in a quiet area. Ideal location for 2 days walking at Malham & Stainforth then back to a cosy cottage conveniently placed for the local shop & pubs. So why not 5 stars? In our opinion, & compared to other recent stays elsewhere, just a few details may have been overlooked. Sadly, often overlooked, & it was the case here, a dishwasher that needed a good clean is a nuisance. Good quality towels were quite worn & just one tea towel for potentially five guests is a shortcoming. Perhaps it would have spoilt the lovely interior design but I felt a curtain over the front door would be a great addition. This would cut down on draughts from there to the backdoor & up the stairs experienced when sitting on the sofa. Great stay though, thanks, we'd happily return.

We had a lovely comfortable and cosy stay at Bailey Cottage. We had everything we needed in the cottage.We used the local chip shop, Indian restaurant and local pub, The Old Swan for meals. The shop was very handy as well. We had a lovely long walk along the canal to Skipton and got the train back to Gargrave. Grassington and Linton Falls are worth a visit too. Highly recommend Bailey Cottage.

Wonderful home, warm cosy but spacious for 2 adult couples. Loved it. Thank you. Highly recomend.

Lydia’s property was perfect for our stay in the Yorkshire Dales being a 20-30 mins drive for hikes in Malham and Ingleborough and just a few minutes from Skipton with it’s interesting pubs and cafes. We appreciated that there were 2 pubs and an excellent Indian restaurant within short walking distance of the property, so no need to drive out in the evenings. The property was very clean and cosy, felt newly renovated and looked just as in the pictures. It is located on a very pleasant and quiet street.

This cottage is beautiful and matches the photos exactly. The host was very helpful and happy to give local suggestions. Walking distance to shops / pubs etc, easy parking. Can't fault it

Enjoyed a lovely stay in Gargrave at Bailey Cottage. The property was immaculately presented and very snug. Thank you to our generous host for allowing us to stay at her beautiful cottage. Hopefully we will be welcomed back in the not too distant future.

Lydia's cottage was perfect - comfortable, clean, quiet, beautifully furnished. It is in a lovely street, close to the river and canal for walks, close to pubs and supermarket. Lydia is a great host. Highly recommended.

Lydia’s cottage exceeded our expectations in terms of location, comfort, size, furnishings, decor and cleanliness. We thoroughly enjoyed staying in the village which has a decent range of facilities including a traditional country pub that serves a generous Sunday lunch. The stunning Dales are easily accessible making the cottage an ideal base for hikers. We plan to return & recommend without hesitation.

Great accommodation in a peaceful location, easy access to many favourite locations in the Dales.The village has several good eating options and has good bus and train links to help plan your days out.We enjoyed our second visit and will go again.

Lovely cottage just as described on listing, would definitely use again
