Character property in beautiful area

Lovely area with lots to do. Property is quirky, and could do with a little tlc, although the beds and sofas were very comfortable. We weren’t able to book meals out in the village, however there are plenty of lovely places to eat within a 5 mile radius.

Lovely house, but maintenance issues to be addressed

Situated in a beautiful area, the property is spacious, well equipped and comfortable. Lovely sun room at the back of the house was our go-to place to be. Unfortunately our time there was affected by water supply issues on the upper floors which were not resolved at the time, compounded with other maintenance shortcomings, and poor / incorrect communication from the management company. Addressing these areas will make this property a real winner.

Beautiful location and a house full of character

We loved our stay at The Old Post Office. Ideal for our family get-together. The beds are really comfortable, lots of spaces to hang out in the house, the area is magic- roll out of the front door and you are by the river or can go on glorious riverside walks from the front door. The Aga was lovely and warm and the property was well equipped, we had everything we needed. For us the photos didn't do it justice, The Old Post Office was comfortable, characterful and very spacious.

A week in the Dales

Pros: Couldn't ask for a better location. Comfortable beds. Very good communication from managers. Was all that it said it was. Good facilities available - pots and pans, etc. (not always the case with holiday rentals). Cons: Could have been cleaner. A few things which have clearly not been fixed for a while, light switches, locks etc. But this is minor. Overall, I would happily book again.

Beautiful location but property in need of TLC.

The location and surrounding scenery were great, however the property itself did not live up to expectations. On arrival the kitchen was in need of a good clean and other downstairs areas needed a good dust and hoover. There were various exposed wires and cables both inside and out which were unsightly. Some windows and doors were difficult to open and then impossible to close and the garden needed a tidy up. Overall, the property was in need of a lot of TLC. The bedrooms were clean and the beds were very comfortable. The listing states '4 Bathrooms', however there are 2 bathrooms with showers over baths and 2 further cloakrooms. There is only an Aga to cook on so be prepared. On the plus side, the issues that we raised with the managing agent were dealt with and their communication was good and prompt.
