Had a wonderful stay in Starbotton to explore Yorkshire and the Lake District. Very quaint little town with just a short walk to a grat pub, the Fox and Hounds. Well appointed cottage. The fireplace was stocked with wood and enjoyed a couple of evenings in front of a nice fire. Would recommend to anyone wanting to stay in the area
