Front & Back Gardens

There is a patio in front of the cottage with a bench, table and chairs offering a dining area or just somewhere to sit and enjoy the view.

In the front garden a trellis on one side and a stone wall on the other offer some privacy. The garden has a lawn and is fully fenced, so you can let you dog out off the lead. Elsewhere on the property dogs must be kept on a lead to protect the free-roaming animals.

Behind the cottage is a private parking space with steps leading down to a second, smaller patio with a table and chairs. A lockable shed where you can store bicycles is also located at the back of the cottage.

If you want to explore the area on foot or by bicycle, you recommend you bring your own:

  • Walking boots or sturdy shoes
  • Wellingtons
  • Waterproof clothing for wet days
  • Binoculars for birdwatching
  • Bicycles (though there are bicycle hire shops in both Skipton and Ilkley)

If there is anything you find you need during your stay, just ask! We live two doors down and are happy to help.
