"We had a lovely time at Braeside exploring the area and enjoying the company of the friendly locals in the Cowshill Hotel bar."
There are so many walks and fantastic scenery. Our dog had a great time too! The cottage was lovely, clean and surprisingly spacious and we enjoyed spending cosy nights by the fire. The owner was very responsive and helpful too. We hope to visit again in future!

"A very comfortable cottage but a bit remote."
Could have done with some information on gadgets provided but we worked them out eventually. Great for anyone who likes serious walking. Amenities not very close and then a bit limited. Nevertheless we enjoyed our stay. It was very peaceful.

Lovely cottage, we did have a nice time, the cottage is right next to a main road, lots of motorbikes, very noisy all day, the stairs in the cottage is really steep, the fridge wasn’t clean I had to clean it before I could put food in it, behind the record player hadn’t been hoovered in a long time, the cottage had a musty smell, couldn’t open windows when in side because on noise, I wouldn’t go back, but don’t let me put you off

"Everything as listed but unless you drive a mini the parking space will mean that your back end will be sticking out."
I would suggest it had a dishwasher and king size bed.

"A roomy, very comfortable and homely stone cottage high up in the north Pennines."
This was Perfect for a break from it all and very much appreciated by myself and two grown up sons. Could just about fit my Honda jazz behind the garage which was useful. We found the house was very warm and definitely didn't need the heating on and the log burner was useful at night. it is blustery and pretty exposed up there so nice to have that warming comfort. The shower was good too - powerful and it was fab to have a soak in the bath after a day out walking (don't have one at home!). Some cottages can be short of living space but this was very spacious with comfortable sofas and a well equipped and decent sized kitchen. Thankyou Andrew for your helpfulness /welcome and hospitality in trying times for everyone.

"We had an absolutely brilliant week at 1 Braeside and were very sad to leave."
Exactly how it’s described. Perfect for our family of 3 and our dog. Right in the heart of the countryside. Perfect for long walks and then coming back and relaxing in front of the fire. The cottage had absolutely everything we needed and more...even for the dog! We would definitely recommend this homely cottage x

"This is a beautifully presented cottage in a quiet area away from it all."
Great things provided by the owners such as fairy liquid, Andrex toilet tissue and other homely bits and pieces. Fantastic welcome tray with wine too! The heating was just right and we didn't need the fire as it was so cosy. The downside, if we're being hyper critical is the lack of parking space and the really uncomfortable wooden frames on the sofa, in all honesty we only noticed this as we had 4 days of bad weather so were inside more than out. Top tip would be to pull in on road and get key, then open up back door to unload things. Rather than off bridleway as this has a weird camber on it and my Toyota yaris got caught at the front! Scrapping it to get off. There's parking behind garage and my car fitted on, just. The road is not overly busy, except first and last thing. Easy to reverse back out of parking space onto it. There's a little bypass over through Cowshill so if you face wrong way just drive around. We have had a wonderful few days here and would go back, hopefully in the dry so we could see the stars!!

"Fantastic house which exceeded our expectations of what it provided."
Plenty of space for 2-4 people. Amazing views and we made good use of the porch for bird and wildlife watching. The owner kindly bought an airier which allowed clothes drying without using the drier. Providing a plastic/wooden chopping board would be good. The parking is somewhat limited and only usable with a small car.
