Warm and cosy cottage suitable for multi generation family (13 - 77).
Warm and cosy cottage suitable for multi generation family (13 - 77). Stairs are. Bit tricky but take your time and everything will be okay
We arrived to the property amid Storm Dennis, to find it very warm and cosy (essential given the timing!!) clean and with everything we needed to settle straight in.
Kitchen has everything you need, loads of games and puzzles for wet days, plenty of space for socialising and bedrooms all very comfortable.
A really great cottage in a lovely village - 3 pubs (all fantastic) and plenty of walks in the local area.

Very cosy cottage with lots of character in a great location.
Very cosy cottage with lots of character in a great location. The cottage comfortably had space for all of us (2 adults and 5 children) and was well laid out with plenty of seating space. Kitchen was very well equipped and had everything we needed to cook every night for the week we were there. Having two bathrooms was very useful with a large family (and the bath was great after long hill walks!). We only used the log burner on one day and had more than enough logs/coal. Location was great with two pubs very close, but away from the road and very quiet (except for the nightingale that sang most nights outside our bedroom - can't complain too much about that though!). The garden area was perfect for relaxing in the early evening sun. Kettlewell is a great location for a family holiday with shop, pubs, playground, and local walks of varying difficulty. We spent a week there and did something different every day.There was a bit of a mix-up with the key on arrival but the owner sorted this out very quickly and positively which is all we could ask.Our only suggested addition is to have an inflatable air-bed or equivalent available for a bit more flexibility with the sleeping arrangements for large groups like ours.

Had a great half term break.
Had a great half term break. Cottage is perfectly placed within 10m of two pubs. The village has a couple of tea rooms, a deli and a village shop as well. Loads of great walks from the village, and right in the heart of the Dales.

Lovely homely cottage in a great location. Doesn't gave a garden really but the living space is fantastic
Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
If you like walking Inglenook,Kettlewell is ideally placed for gentle valley walks or strenuous over the tops routes
There are plenty of pubs, a shop and Grassington is not far away for cafes restaurants and more shops.
The beds were superb and the house had decent equipment in the kitchen so some adventurous cooking was easy.
We will stay again.

Pleased that cleaner informed the office immediately that we had left a mobile phone behind when we departed.
Plumbing a bit eccentric; hot taps turning the wrong way were confusing and dangerous.
All old beams were fake !

The cottage is comfortable and lots of room for 6 people .
The cottage is comfortable and lots of room for 6 people . We spent a lovely walking holiday there.,A few things would have made our stay even Better. The shower had to be cleaned of an unpleasant blockage so that the water could flow down the drain . Unfortunately, there was no shower Attachment in the bathroom , so that all of us had to use one shower . There was also only one toilet brush for toilets. The kitchen was very well- stocked in general but there were only four wineglasses and five eggcups for 6 if us . These are small things which could easily remedied.

Had a lovely week in this cottage, very clean and comfortable with practically everything you could need (apart from a lemon squeezer - but there is one now!) The only thing I would mention is that, as other reviewers have pointed out, the garden is very small. This isn't a problem at all, except that on the booking sites it is explicitly listed as 'large garden' so if you hadn't read all the reviews you would feel cheated. Also parking for up to two cars is in the village car park, not outside the cottage as stated.
Otherwise the only thing I would change would be a curtain over the large glass front porch area, otherwise at night you feel like you are on reality TV when people stare in as they walk past!
