Dyson House

Unfortunately when we got there towels on the kitchen floor , beds not made, crumbs everywhere , glasses still in bedroom , we rang the owner she was very nice , got cleaners to come , very nice lady after she had been the bed throws grass all over them the oven and grill was unusable filthy dirty , the whole place needed a deep clean as for the toilet brushes they were filthy .

We have used Sykes cottages for a long time and we were very disappointed not up to Sykes standard

Disappointed.

Cottage needs some serious tlc

A nice house, just located on a very busy road which was very noisy 24 hours a day.

It meant the front bedrooms especially had loud traffic noise all night long. The house itself was spacious and comfortable.

A lovely stay in a well located cottage, the cottage was welcoming and inviting.

Upon arrival, there was some milk,tea and coffee provided which was a nice gesture. The cottage is a great base for walking and a visit to Malham to see the cove and Janet’s Foss. After a 12 mile walk, Dyson House is a great place to come home and relax. There were a few areas which could be improved, the kitchen was lacking some utensils such as small sharp knives for chopping and the oven door was faulty as it struggled to close. The hinge on the left hand side is not secured in properly which caused problems during the stay. Another minor issue, was that in some areas of the home there are damp spots where wallpaper is starting to peel, which is something to watch in the future. Overall, we had a really enjoyable stay at Dyson House and would consider this cottage to stay in the future.

A few minor things that wld have made the stay even better: *There is a problem with the oven door.

We were really worried we'd break it as no clear way to close it. *The living and dining rooms were very dark and cold have done with more side lights. *The hall down to the front door (which we didn't use at all) could do with coat hooks as we piled the bench high with coats.

A lovely stay in this we’ll presented property, there was plenty of room for our large party (8 plus a baby and a dog).

Slightly limited space in the 3rd double was tricky for those with mobility issues. The property is on a busy road, but the double glazing effectively blocks the noise. Great access to the village railway station.

We love this part of Yorkshire and our stay in the area was amazing.

The kitchen was well equipped and all rooms were a good size with many original features. There were plenty of games which kept our daughter entertained! The road noise did spoil our stay somewhat and we did not find the living room furniture particularly comfortable. For such a high nightly price we would have expected a few more ‘extras’.

Had a lovely stay at Dyson House.

It was spacious, and well located to allow us to explore North Yorkshire. The beds were very comfy, and there were nice decorative touches around the house to make us feel at home. Brochures of local tourist attractions helped us plan our week, and there was a good-sized TV and some board games for when we returned in the evening. Highly recommended.

Great house, perfectly suited to our family's needs and very helpful owners who helped us immediately when there was a boiler issue.

Quirky, interesting and very comfortable beds. Kitchen was very well equipped with more than everything supplied. Only tiny criticism would be that there was quite a build up of dust under the beds (only noticed due to children putting their bags under the beds). But, overall, a fantastic stay and we'd definitely go back - would have liked to have stayed longer but couldn't due to work and only needed it for the weekend for completing the Yorkshire Three Peaks. Thank you very much!

Lovely house, great location for exploring the area and very handy for the train station.

The noise from the road is quite prominent when sleeping in the front bedrooms as I think this is a main route.

It would appear that certain aspects of the property need to be upgraded.

A well appointed kitchen. On suite shower looked a little shabby. Lack of cupboard space in some bedrooms. The garden was poorly maintained and the on-line description suggested the garden was at the back of the house. We had to cross the parking space to get to the garden. Despite this we enjoyed our stay at Dyson House.

The property should be identified by a sign on the rear door , there is more than one key safe in the parking area & we were helped out by a friendly neighbour .

We think that much more emphasis should be placed on access & egress , it should be explained more that is much easier & safer when arriving from or departing to Skipton that it is best practice to head toward the Maypole inn & turn around the green . In fairness it does say in the property notes on line that the entrance angle is tight arriving from Skipton but the road is extremely busy & we think a more prominent message , perhaps on the door would be better .
