Cozy Cottage
We very much enjoyed staying at this little cottage- well located for hiking and the village is big enough to have plenty of amenities for eating, groceries, pharmacy but still quiet. The cottage was clearly well cared for and we had plenty of space for two of us. We especially enjoyed the bright breakfast nook and had everything we needed for light cooking. Would love to return to beautiful Yorkshire!

Great cottage for the two of us. Had everything we needed for a cosy 3 night stay. Really close to the main square, location was fabulous. Really good walks on the doorstep would recommend the walk to Hebdon Bridge. Will definitely be booking again for a mini break loved the cottage 😄

We really enjoyed this cottage. Very quiet area (a little hard to find). This was a very cozy adorable cottage that has everything you need. WiFi was great so we could stream ‘All creatures great and small’. Adorable breakfast nook for drinking coffee while looking outside.

A little gem
Beautiful cosy and comfortable cottage ideally situated in the glorious setting of Grassington. Local pubs and food were great. People very friendly and welcoming. Stunning scenery and even managed to see Wharfdale play rugby on Saturday (yes they won). Would definitely come back, almost forgot an epic trip to Wensleydale to the cheese makers. Absolutely fascinating and lots of cheese purchased

Cottage in Grassington
We very much enjoyed a few days stay at the cottage. The cottage was excellent, well equipped with everything we needed. The location was good at the top end of the Main Street with easy walking access to pubs, restaurants and shops. Communications with the owner were very quick and clear. Overall, we are looking to return to Grassington (hopefully when the weather is better!) and hope to stay in the cottage again.

Yorkshire Dales at its best!
The cottage was wonderful --very clean, well-equipped, just as lovely as it appears in the listing. It is tucked away from the nearby lane (where we were always able to find parking) so very quiet and peaceful. It's a short walk to the center of Grassington, which has many places to eat and a Co-Op market. We were lucky enough to be there when filming for All Creatures Great and Small was ongoing! All in all, a great experience. We highly recommend this cottage.

Grassington summer days.
The cottage was well-appointed and comfortable with all the equipment required that you would expect. The small garden was also a nice feature especially during the lovely weather we were lucky to have. The only downside was the very limited parking available nearby. We decided to leave our car in the large Yorkshire Dales Information Centre carpark and booked a place for the week which worked fine for us. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Grassington and wouldn't hesitate to stay at the cottage again.

Sweet Spot for Unforgettable Visit
I looked for a place for my husband and I to have a comfortable home base from which to explore the locations used in All Creatures Great and Small on PBS. This could not have been more perfect. It is cozy and located in easy walking distance to the quaint town square and shops. The only downside- and what I think could be something others might need to know- is that 1) the bedroom and only bathroom are upstairs with kitchen and sitting room downstairs and 2) even though the listing says there are three parking spaces near the cottage, they were always filled and we had to park a good distance away and walk to and from the car, up and down a hill. The cottage itself requires a walk, even if you are lucky enough to get one of those spaces. Anyone with any difficulty in mobility would not have an easy go of it. Luckily, we didn’t, but still, when it was unexpectedly cold, rainy, and windy, that long walk to the car was not pleasant. That’s my only negative for this charming cottage. We had a truly magical week in Grassington, and I highly recommend it!

Grassington get-away
This is a very cosy cottage with a loved feel owing to the owners family connection with it. The location is tucked away in the village and there is zero noise or light pollution. If you want peace, tranquillity and coziness this is the spot. Plus the log burner is an absolute beauty & the free supply of seasoned logs completes the picture!
