Previous visitors' comments about Seaves Cottage:
We felt at home instantly at Seaves cottage which is very cosy. The owners and family were very friendly and welcoming. We particularly enjoyed staying in an area with so much to explore and we had a varied itinerary which the whole family enjoyed. A memorable holiday was had by all. This is a beautiful part of Britain and one we intend to visit again in the future.
Mrs Davies, Pontypridd, August 2011
For us the location was perfect. We enjoyed having a "home base" to return to after each day's driving and sightseeing. Being able to self-cater as opposed to eating out all the time was great. Our host was extremely helpful and friendly. Many thanks go to her!
Mr Joseph, July 2011
The owners and family were very pleasant,available if you needed to ask a question but never intrusive when you consider they are running a working farm next door to the cottage.The cottage was excellent accommodation and restful. We like to wine and dine when on holiday and we were spoiled for choice in this area of Yorkshire, so many excellent pubs and restaurants, in fact we did not find a bad one all the time we were there. The other thing that I truly enjoyed were the virtually deserted rural roads in the area, a real pleasure to drive on.
Mr Butlin, Northampton, July 2011
Easy trouble-free booking and administration. Seaves Cottage's surroundings and animals, together with the family, made a massive "feel good factor". Area beautiful and accessible.
