A pleasant and comfortable cottage in a good position to access tourist spots. We enjoyed the location as it was easy to walk into Skipton and in walking distance of 2 excellent pubs and a shop. The owners were friendly and helpful and made it easy for our puppy to stay by having dog beds, blankets , treats and toys for our use

A lovely little quirky property in a peaceful location off a rough track & well away from the road. Well equipped, & spotlessly clean. On arrival we were met by the friendly owner, she gave us some pointers about the cottage & local area. Small patio outside the door with seating & parking just beyond.

We have just returned from a week at Pine View which we really enjoyed. It was very peaceful, clean and comfortable and very handy for two pubs for evening meals. A lovely week's break.
