Overview
Property code: OC-DS1063

Set in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales in the village of Hanlith, just 1.5 miles from Malham, you will find Turret Cottage. The apartment, which is enclosed within the charming 17th century Hanlith Hall, is both spacious and light.

This quirky property, full of character and charm and still retaining some of its original features, sleeps five guests in three bedrooms, with three bathrooms, an open plan kitchen/dining and lounge area, all on one level so it is the ideal place to get together for a group of couples, a family, or a group of friends. All rooms have lovely artwork of the local countryside.

Turret Cottage has lovely views across the open countryside. With walks, including the Pennine Way, and cycle routes to explore from the front door and a country inn serving food half a mile down the road, it provides the ideal place to enjoy a relaxing break to get away from it all.

Why we love this property: Part of a charming 17th Century Hall with lovely views and walks from the doorstep.

GROUND FLOOR:

Entrance hallway: Front door opens into entrance where you will find coat hooks and a great place to store your muddy boots after a day’s walking in the hills. Down three steps, you enter a large and grand hallway, complete with chandeliers, that leads to the main rooms in the cottage.

Bedroom 1: A spacious room with king-size bed, bedside drawers and built-in wardrobes with storage space and TV on the wall. En-suite bathroom with bath, wash hand basin and WC.

Bedroom 2: A twin-bedded room with built in wardrobes and chest of drawers and TV on the wall. En suite shower with corner shower, WC and washbasin.

Bedroom 3: A single day bed with bedside table, hanging space for all your clothes and wonderful views of the countryside.

Family Bathroom: A separate bathroom with corner shower, WC and washbasin

Living/dining/kitchen area: A very well-equipped open plan kitchen/dining/living room. A lovely island centre piece with under counter fridge and freezer, built in electric oven and hob, Nespresso coffee machine, microwave, dishwasher and washing machine. On the opposite side of the large room, you have a dining table and chairs, comfy sofas, a warming electric fire and a large TV with Firestick where you can sit and enjoy a film together.

Externally: Venturing outdoors, a set of stone steps leads you to the hot tub (which will be available from 1st August). Indulge in blissful relaxation after a long day exploring the Dales whilst soaking in the lovely countryside views. Guests can also enjoy shared use of a spacious lawned garden, complete with picnic benches and ample space to enjoy dining alfresco and basking in the fresh, countryside air.

Pets: 2 dogs welcome.

Nice property in an excellent location, convenient for lots of local walks from the door. There was obviously some positive renovation work going on before we stayed and some problems with the heating were immediately addressed by Rory. Still a way to go before it achieves its full potential as a top property but definitely moving in the right direRead morection. Didn't use the hot tub so can't comment as it's not our thing. Hide

A Lovely Property in a beautiful location was our first impression on the website and in person. All in all, it is a very clean property with clean linen and bathrooms. However the practicalities of the property leaves a bit to be desired once you scratch the surface. To offer a property for 6 people is a little bit over ambitious as the ensuitRead morees are very tiny and hard to navigate around. The kitchen isn't equipped enough to accommodate 6 people, for instance 3 coffee cups only. Kitchen is in need of some attention as doors and drawers don't fit properly and lack of blinds at the kitchen windows means the cottage at the side can easily overlook this property. Hide

The Matress was very thin and could feel the wooden slats through it. Dinning chairs were extremly uncomfortable. Sofa very low and not perticularly comforable. water poured into porch when it rained and soaked our shoes. Bathrooms were very cramped and sanitary wear was fitted in such a manner to make them awkward to use, and required a degree of Read morecontortionism to use. Hide

The good: - Great location for Malham and the Pennine Way - Lots of space in living areas and two of the bedrooms - Clean The bad: - Lacking some basics (scissors in the kitchen; saucepans big enough to cook basics for 4) - Very small and compromised bathrooms - In poor state of repair in places (large glass shower door held on with silicoRead morene, and fell off; bad smell from drains; TVs in bedrooms not working) - Layout of outdoor space leads to a total lack of privacy in garden (which is shared with the neighbouring cottage). For example, the Hot Tub is placed just a few feet from the one belonging to the neighbouring cottage, meaning no privacy if the neighbours use theirs at the same time. (Especially so if you have neighbours who spend their time smoking, drinking, swearing, shouting and arguing in the hot tub!) We eventually cut our stay short and came home a day early. The owner did offer a partial refund, reflecting some of these issues, but this has never materialised and he has since stopped answering messages asking him to honour his promises. Hide

Location was beautiful, with great views and lots of local walks. It is remote, so a car is required for days out, and the local roads are often single track with passing places. The accommodation was a bit cramped for five adults. Three bath / shower rooms have been squeezed in, but the layouts are poor. One shower room is tiny, and to get to theRead more basin in the main bathroom you have to squeeze through a gap between the bath and the toilet. Small changes would make a difference such as bins and mirrors in each of the bedrooms. Kitchen was well equipped, but we did have issues with the microwave (blew up and had to be replaced!) and the electricity tripping and being unable to find the fuse box. We added a note to the info folder for future holiday makers. Hide
