Top-notch cottage, wonderful views
Bit of confusion sorting out which cottage we were renting (website/agency not very clear) but luckily the mobile worked outside the house and caretakers could not have been more helpful. Loved the location, the views, the warmth and comfort of the cottage. We know the local area well and eadily find waljs and things to do.

Beautiful cottage in an absolutely stunning location.
Griff Head is a lovely cottage. Very cosy and warm and equipped to a very high standard. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen very well equipped, with lots of crockery and various pots and pans and the whole place was spotlessly clean. Little touches like hand soap, tea towels, kitchen and toilet rolls were very appreciated, along with the welcoming tea and biscuits. The views from this cottage are simply stunning and the Moor is a few yards up the road, right on the doorstep.
We would recommend bringing (or buying) some bottled water to drink as the tap water does have a taste to it, but be assured that you will struggle to find a more comfortable cottage in a better location.
Campbell’s in Leyburn is a must for any shopping supplies with a huge arrange of goods, a fantastic butchers counter and a whole floor of wine!
Thank you for the use of your beautiful holiday home and thank you Lorraine and Norman for care you give it to ensure we all have such a good experience. We love this part of the world and will be back!
