Riverside, 11 Bridge End, Skipton, Grassington, North Yorkshire, BD23 5NH

This cottage is beautifully located when it is not a building site. I booked this cottage about nine months prior to my stay. A few days before my arrival the owner contacted me to explain that there was building work going on and we "might" be disturbed. At such short notice my wife and I decided to risk it until 2 days before we were due to take possession the agent, Sykes Cottages, rang us to say the booking was cancelled due to builders cutting through the power supply cable. At such short notice the only acceptable alternative was a more expensive cottage. When I approached the owner asking that they compensate me for the additional cost they refused.

I actually called at the site and it was indeed a building site with mechanical diggers all over the place.

This is the second time in 3 years that this owner has done this to us and on both occasions because of building work.

A most unsatisfactory experience.

My Husband and I stayed here with our 6 month old Puppy for a short vacation in February. The accommodation is lovely, clean and very spacious. We absolutely loved the view from the sitting room and enjoyed having our early morning cuppa watching the babbling river and the ducks. Grassington itself has some lovely little shops and a few hostelries and cafe's so you can enjoy a cold glass of something or something more warming. it is literally a 5-10 minute walk into Grassington. The owners are really lovely and nothing is too much trouble should you need anything. We will definitely be back :)

Really well equipped apartment, wonderful views and perfect location. Cathy and Stephen very helpful and friendly. Loved it! Grassington is a lovely town in a wonderful area.

Lovely flat; very comfortable. It's at the end of a terrace of houses overlooking the river. There is parking for one vehicle. It has a good Wi-Fi / internet connection and the mobile phone signal was good (Vodafone).

It's just a short walk to the town, where there are plenty of cafes, restaurants, pubs, etc., and lots of shops with local goods. It's well placed for exploring the beautiful Yorkshire Dales, either on foot or by car.

The flat's well equipped with plenty of kitchen utensils, etc. It also has a large amount of books, games, DVD's and other

A great place to spend a holiday. Lots to do in area. Apartment was great and to a very high standard. The views from the apartment are wonderful.The owners were very helpful. I am quite sure we will return in the near future. Have no problem recommending this property to anyone looking for a quiet break.
