Such an amazing stay at Curlew cottage, we enjoyed every minute and didn’t want to leave! Will definitely be staying again for sure! Perfect end to 2024 and an even more perfect start to 2025! Thankyou ☺️

Beautiful, peaceful setting with stunning views. The house was spotless, cozy, and well-equipped. Perfect for a relaxing getaway—highly recommend!

We enjoyed our stay as the weather was so beautiful and allowed us to be lazy sitting in the sunshine and watching the cows in the field. A beautiful if remote area (which is why we chose it!)

We absolutely loved it here. Peaceful, lots of places to walk in the surrounding area and a lovely outdoor space for both ourselves and dog. We will certainly be back!

We had a lovely stay at the cottage! Highly recommend, set in the middle of a farm, so peaceful with beautiful views! Hosts were very helpful and accommodating! Thank you so much!

Delightful, spacious, home away from home.

This was our second time staying here. We immediately felt at home. What a lovely house to stay in.

Curlew Cottage was a great place to stay. Very peaceful, a good level of quality and luxury and a lovely place to relax.We enjoyed our stay and would recommend.

Fantastic stay, such a quiet location and the kids loved it. Rooms were all huge, comfortable and clean. Would happily stay again if visiting the area again.

The place is nicely secluded in a lovely part of Yorkshire. The views from the big double windows in the morning were an absolute pleasure as was the sunsets. The rooms are well appointed with massive beds and each room has its own bathroom which was perfect. There was a great BBQ which we were planning to use but the weather had other ideas. Overall a lovely place with lovely hosts.

Terrific accommodation, great space indoors and out. Great countryside setting. It was very hot few days whilst we were there, so pleased to see large fans in each bedroom. Lots of lovely towns, villages and award winning pubs within a short drive.

Beautiful house in a beautiful, peaceful location. Beds are super comfy and all en suite which is amazing. We were also very grateful for the fans provided given we were there during the heatwave. Thank you for a lovely relaxing break !

If you’re considering booking Curlew Cottage, do it. This cottage really is a gem and probably hands down one of the best accommodations we’ve ever had the pleasure of staying in. The cottage was ideal for our group holiday and everything about the cottage itself exudes luxury and excellence. The cottage is of a very high standard and really does provide a level of comfort which is home from home. The garden is also a fabulous space which we made use of everyday into the evenings enjoying drinks and a couple of bbq’s. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were sad to leave, we won’t hesitate in booking again if we choose to visit the area again.

Perfect house, home from home, lovely view from the lounge window overlooking the fields and in the distance the hills. The added bonus was all the lambs gambolling in the sunshine! Perfect location to explore the Dales National Park, with lots of walks, A lovely place to unwind for a week.
