Emma
Beautiful spot, really peaceful and stunning views all around.
Jake
We had a lovely 3 night stay here and discovered the place ideal for getting away from it all. The owners were incredibly friendly and approachableand they really went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, even providing a loaf of freshly baked bread on arrival! The hot tub is a great touch and really easy to use, plus the location is convenient for exploring the dales and just 10 mins to Catterick if any shopping is needed.
John
We booked a short break for 4 nights at Arbour Hill, craving some rest and peacefulness. The cottage is in a lovely setting in North Yorkshire. It's bijou and perfect for a couple, boasting a high standard of cleanliness and finish, all set in stunning grounds. The owners are incredibly helpful.
Claire
We stayed in a lovely quaint cottage that was beautifully decorated and spotless. The location and views were greatand the wood fired hot tub was such fun! The drop n dip service on our first night was fantastic. We arrived to freshly baked bread and eggs, which was a delicious treat and a really lovely touch. It’s a perfect spot to explore some great places, just a few minutes' drive away. We visited Thorpe Perrow Arboretum, Bolton Castleand Harmby Waterfall, all of which were well worth a visit. To top it off, we even had Sooty the cat join us on our last night!
Emma
What a lovely little property! It's so well laid out and the countryside is just beautiful. Those views are stunning! The secluded location really adds to its charm. Just make sure you give the hot tub enough time to heat up because once you're in, it's such a delightful experience! And the star gazing is simply superb (you have to lie perfectly still for the outside light to go out and then wow!).
Emily
We were absolutely thrilled with the accommodation! It was compact but so well designed and equipped. The owner was super helpful and friendly, providing us with great suggestions for days out and fantastic directions to the castle we could see from our bedroom window. The location was just right for us, tucked away off the beaten track with no traffic noise at all. The property and grounds were really well maintainedand we loved the hot tub, which was definitely worth the effort to get heated up!
Tom
This is a perfect little cosy hideaway in the Yorkshire Dales! The location is wonderfully secluded and just what we needed. The cottage is well equipped and was spotless. The hosts were super friendly and even left us some freshly baked bread, butter, eggsand jams which was such a nice touch! We really enjoyed the hot tub too. If you’re lucky, you might get a visit from the cat! We had a fantastic stay and will definitely be going back.
James
Everything feels fresh and spotlessand the grounds are lovely! It's super quiet here, plus the staff are really friendly and helpful.
Emma
We had an amazing weekend away and will definitely be back! The place was stunning and it almost felt like we were in France, surrounded by beautiful views. The owners were lovely, so kind and really helpful.
Sophie
What a beautiful place to stay! It’s so peaceful and relaxing, we would definitely recommend it to anyone. The location is just ideal for exploring North Yorkshire; we had wonderful days out in Hawes, Leyburn and Richmond. It was delightful to return to such a quiet spot, where we could read our books and unwind in the hot tub.
Clara
We really enjoyed our stay and the owners' parents were so welcoming and friendly! The homemade bread and fresh eggs in the cottage were a lovely touch and it felt very cosy, perfect for a short break away, with loads of places and attractions to check out nearby. Their cat was just as lovely and came by often! Would definitely recommend to family and friends.
Tom
We had a really lovely and relaxing stay! It was just perfect for our romantic getaway. The atmosphere was so nice and we felt completely at ease.
Emma
What a lovely little romantic spot with stunning views! The nearby towns are charming, but you’ll definitely need a car to explore them. The property was clean and comfyand the owners gave us such a warm welcome.
Margaret
This place is absolutely stunning, we couldn’t have wished for anything more! It was so peaceful and relaxing, just what we needed. The cottage may be small but it's really well designedand the hot tub is such a lovely bonus, plus the bread and eggs for breakfast were a nice touch. We would love to come back in the summer.
Laura
A beautiful high spec cottage in a lovely rural area! The cottage is bijou as advertised, but my partner is tall, so we did find it a bit too small. The wet room is lovely and spacious thoughand the bed is really comfy! You would need to set aside a morning to heat up the log fired hot tub if you want to use it later on, as it takes about three hours to get going. It was a bit too far out of the way and a tad too small for us. We would recommend it for a summer stay but not really for winter.
Emma
This place is just stunning with gorgeous views from the hot tub! The personal touches, like the baked bread and eggs from the owner, really made it special! We can’t wait to book again!

Situated in the Ripon area of North Yorkshire this popular theme park makes a fantastic day out for the whole family.  The more daring will love the big and thrilling rides such as Raptor Attack, The Ultimate and Trauma Tower.  For the little ones there are some excellent attractions such as Flying Camels, Dodgems and a Magic Wheel.  Toddlers will like the Dragon Boats and the Lightwater Express amongst other things. There are over 40 rides and attractions in total and we think this is excellent value for money too.  If you book your tickets in advance online you can save even more money and beat the queues.
