In the 19th century Aysgarth was a staging post and many a traveller would make their way down to view the falls from the bridge. Today, many will recognise the Upper Falls from the film Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves.

Excellent property. We will return again.
Mr Gray, Dunfermline, October 2012

We have stayed at many cottages in the Dales and this cottage is highly recommended, there was plenty of space in all the rooms, it was very comfortable. I intend to return!
Mrs Wareing, Chorley, September 2012

We have stayed in this cottage for the past 3 years and feel totally at home, comfortable and relaxed the minute we walk through the door. The surroundings are beautiful, it feels like a really blissful week away from the rat race - a real tonic!
Miss Wilson, Beverley, July 2012

A very warm and cosy cottage, it felt very homely. We settled in straight away and the cottage was bigger than I was expecting. We can't wait to go back!
