Farnhill View Reviews

The whole experience was amazing, its exactly as described and more. There was plenty of guides all over offering help to navigate the facilities and make our stay easier. The property was in great condition and very cosy, it felt like home from the beginning. I will definitely recommend this to family and friends and visit again.

Stunning house, plenty of space, well equipped, really nice homely touches. We felt at home immediately and enjoyed all the time spent in the house, plus we enjoyed the views from the conservatory. We would love to stay again next year and would highly recommend it.

Fabulous home from home with everything you need for a week long stay. It was freezing the week we were there, the cottage was lovely and warm with plenty of hot water. Well equipped kitchen knives could do with a sharpen, comfy beds, great shower and wonderful views from the living room & bedroom. Great base for visiting Skipton, Grassington and Ilkley Moors, all of which Id recommend. Sean and Paula the hosts live next door, respectful of your privacy but on hand should you need them. Highly recommend, we had a great stay. Thank you!

The area was stunning with amazing landmarks like Malham Cove about half an hour away. We found that we didnt even need the car to appreciate the beauty in f the area with great walks on your doorstep and amazing pubs and cafes along the way. The accommodation was amazing. Beautiful views from the garden and the facilities were top quality with everything provided and much more. The hosts were perfect. They provided plenty of information on the cottage , the local area and how to use the equipment through thought through booklets etc. the key safe system worked well and hosts left you to have a great holiday, but were there throughout if we needed anything. They live next door too and were generally interested in how we were getting on when we saw them in passing.

Kirsty

The house is amazing, clean, modern, all amenities. Hosts on hand if need anything. We took 2 cars and one of them not being a 4x4 did struggle getting over the cattle grid and down the main drive so be aware of this more so when returning when dark. Ample parking though outside property. Would suggest an additional chair even though limited space so unsure how would work. Other than that great experience. Loads of local shops pubs etc. 13min to skipton town. And we looking at returning for christmas.

We have stayed at many holiday properties over the years, and Paula's checked all the boxes. The home is modern and offered everything one could possibly need to prepare meals. It is clean and very comfortable beds fabulous! It is easy walking distance to a store where we were able to find items and fresh foods . There were restaurants and pubs close by, for those wanting to eat out. The best part is the beautiful view from a stunning sun room. It was our favourite space ! The location was perfect for us and the parking space ample. I can't recommend it enough and thankyou to our wonderful hosts.

Louise

The house was in a beautiful location with views of the countryside. It was lovely having breakfast out on the balcony and watching the sunset. The hospitality was excellent, fresh homemade bread, milk, wine and biscuits on our arrival. Great pub recommendation. Paula was very friendly. The house was spotless and well equipped.

We had a great stay at Farnhill View. It was the perfect place to base ourselves as we explored the local area. The kitchen was very well equipped and we really appreciate the little extras. The living area is a fantastic place to relax and eat a meal. We loved looking at the amazing views. The terrace was perfect for sitting out on with some wine. The beds were really comfortable and lots of storage in the bedrooms. The house was very clean. We will definitely return and recommend to others.

We had a lovely week at Farnhill View. In easy reach of some lovely places like Skipton castle, Haworth etc. We felt so at home in the lovely little house and Sean and Paula were really welcoming the homemade bread was lovely! The hot tub was a big hit with everyone at the end of a day walking.

This was our second stay at Farnhill view and again we had a lovely stay , Paula and Sean were amazing again the house was well equipped and very clean , we will definitely look forward to booking again next year. Thank you Paula and Sean

We were so impressed with every aspect of our stay, from initial contact with Paula and Sean, who are very helpful and friendly, to the absolutely stunning property. The house was immaculate, and had everything you could possibly need. Its in a great location, with lots of things to do, and local amenities. We couldnt get over that view! Would highly recommend!

Catherine

A stunning property. Extremely well equiped and comfortable and the views are simply amazing, we were treated to both sunrise and sunsets. The central town is quite busy traffic wise but within minutes walking you are out in some breathtaking countryside. We walked our socks off didnt use the car at all. A pie from the local butchers is must as well as the breakfast pack. We would recommend this property and certainly visit again. Thank you and well done hosts Paula and Sean.

Jonathan

We really enjoyed our stay, it's a lovely house in a great location. Well equipped and great views. Thank you!

Nichole

Perfect stay! Beautiful location, spacious and attentive hosts. We hope to stay here again.

This holiday home had everything anyone could possibly need such attention to detail in the kitchen as well as in every other room of the house. We arrived to a kind friendly welcome, homemade bread with butter, a bottle of wine and a lovely selection of teacoffeebiscuits. Our hosts made it clear they were on hand at any point if we needed anything at all, but also let us have our own privacy and space. The conservatory and sitting room back bedroom look out onto a really lovely view. We heard Curlews from the balconygarden every day, despite being within a handy few mins walking distance from a Coop, 24 hour garage and a highstreet of shopscafepubs... we even saw the Northern Lights from the garden during our stay. What a lovely, homely, comfortable place to relax and to use as a base for exploring further afield. A real home from home. Would heartily recommend.

Allison

Farnhill view is a lovely house in the little village of Crosshills. The views from the property were brilliant, you could see right over to Farn Hill itself. The house was spotlessly clean and Paula had kindly set up the twin beds as requested. Given the size of the house it would be useful to have an extra WC. As 4 friends we managed to juggle bathroom times, but if you had three couples staying it might be a different story. The one thing that slightly surprised us was the hot tub. Having paid additional money for the use and set up we had expected a proper, static hot tub, not the blow up version that greeted us. It was difficult to sit in the hub as it had a slight elevated position at one end, meaning we had to kneel rather than sit. The blow up tub wouldnt fit 6 people in it which is what the cottage is advertised as, our opinion was that showing a picture of the actual hot tub in your cottage let details would allow people to make a more informed choice about paying the additional money for the tub. The tub was also not topped up during the Saturday meaning it was only within usable levels when we came back from our days excursion. Having said all of the above we had a lovely weekend and although we probably wouldnt stay here again we did agree that the house had been renovated to a good standard.

Lovely house in a great location. The house had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Spacious bedrooms with comfortable beds, a really well equipped kitchen and fantastic views from the lounge and conservatory. Crosshills has a decent sized Coop, lovely cafes, restaurants and pubs bars. Easy access to Skipton and the Yorkshire Dales. The owners, who live next door, are very friendly and helpful without being intrusive We had a great time and would definitely return.

Lovely house, great location, very relaxing stay. The views are beautiful. The hosts provide a lovely touch as a welcome, fresh bread, milk and a cheeky bottle of wine.g thank you. Lovely stay and we would highly recommend it to all

Great location for exploring the Dales and Forest of Bowland. The cottage is immaculate, tastefully decorated and so well equipped. Paula and Sean are the perfect hosts and really have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. Highly recommend staying at Farnhill

An amazing stay in a wonderful house! The owners were friendly and helpful, and the house was very well appointed and had everything we needed. We had a really lovely relaxing stay and would definitely recommend this property.

Brigitte

The house is in a beautiful location close to some of the main attractions in the area. The house is fully equipped with everything you need for a perfect stay.. The hot tub and the wood burner are an added bonus. The house owners are friendly and welcoming and Crosshills has everything you need within walking distance, we hope to stay again soon.

Charlotte

A really lovely house, with a well equipped kitchen and beautiful views from the lounge, terrace and conservatory. As the house is just on the edge of the village, it feels very remote but is only a 5 min walk from the village centre where there are some nice pubs and restaurants. The one downside of our stay was the heating being owner controlled and locked to guests it was very frustrating to not be able to put the heating on ourselves for a few hours when we've come back from a day out in the torrential rain!

Kathryn

Great stay lovely property. Paula was very accomodating. Loved watching the trains in the distance from the lovely window in the front room very relaxing stay and would recommend x

I had a great week at Farnhill View and was able to host my family and ex work colleagues. We had the use of the hot tub which worked well for us. The weather was kind a lot of the time and we used the conservatory when it was not. Comfy beds and lovely views. Sean was around to deal with any concerns in a timely fashion. Would recommend.

Beautiful property pictures do not do the views from the balcony justice. Comfortable beds and sofa. Kitchen was fully equipped even has a French press! We all enjoyed the hot tub followed by the fire most nights. Hosts were lovely and any issues we had solved immediately. Couldnt fault this property.

We had a lovely weeks stay in this beautiful home. The views and the garden are something special. The house has everything you could possibly need. The owners have really thought of everything. The little touches with the welcome pack and essentials was a lovely touch. We definitely want to return.

Claire

The house is lovely, it is very well equipped and in a very good location. There is so much to see, that a week just wasn't long enough. Owners live next door and are happy to be contacted. They are very friendly and can answer any questions you have. The house itself is large and beds are very comfy. Cleanliness was A.

Loved the house and view with owners being very helpful and welcoming. Only very slight drawback, found sofa bit too deep and soft so doesn't support you. But apart from that tiny drawback, we would definitely come again.

We had an amazing holiday stay at farnhill view , the house was amazing with everything you would need for your stay. The owners Paula and Sean were friendly and welcoming and the homemade bread and wine was a lovely touch. The views amazing and house was very comfortable we would definitely recommend and we will be booking again next year. Thank you again Paula and Sean

Very beautiful house, nice property owner, we really enjoyed our holiday

William

We had a fantastic week at Farnhill View. The house is very well maintained, with a well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and a fabulous view. It is well placed to visit some spectacular places in The Dales and surrounding area. We wished we could have stayed longer !

Philip

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Paula and Sean's availability and assistance was terrific. Welcome pack contained super info and support. Great location, we walked our legs off every day and our dogs enjoyed plenty of off lead walking, where appropriate. Visited lots of local villages and towns without the dogs which was our fun time.

Lovely to return to such a great stay.

Claire

A lovely, well equipped cottage with everything you need for a week away. The perfect home from home! The owners were next door if we needed but we had no issues. There is plenty to do in the surrounding area and the views from the cottage are spectacular. We definitely recommend!

Stuart

Only little issue was doors not closing properly upstairs and it was a little chilli up there. But this should not stop anybody from stopping. The owners were nearby so any issues or advice was easily sorted, and they left you alone to have your break without interuptions. Just how we like it.

Claire

Fantastic homely property in a great location with both nice walks and amenities on the doorstep. Hot Tub, under cover, a great way to unwind after a day exploring the local countryside. The owners Sean and Paula live next door, very friendly and helpful couple who are there for as much or as little as you need them. We truly enjoyed our week's stay and will definitely return in the not too distant future. Can't fault it in any way and highly recommend!!

Absolutely wonderful property with lovely friendly hosts. The property was set out perfectly for our needs and beautifully decorated yet still retained a very homely charm and had everything you could think of. The location is also spot on for exploring lots of what this part of Yorkshire has to offer and wouldn't hesitate in recommended this property to others. Thank you Sean for a wonderful and truly relaxing stay.

Anthony

We had a brilliant holiday at Farnhill view, the house was first class and the owners were very kind and accommodating, we really appreciated the welcome gifts that was very kind. The local area is excellent for exploring, walking and shopping. 1010
