  • "Would absolutely recommend Fogga, the house is gorgeous and Caroline is a wonderful host."

    The house was clean, comfy beds, and they provided coffee, tea, biscuits, fresh milk and even a bottle of prosecco. Was also nice to have so many bathrooms which is usually rare! Caroline also got in touch in advance to check if we wanted the beds set up as twins or pushed together as king sizes - a small gesture but much appreciated! She was also on hand via whatsapp for any queries during our stay. Would definitely recommend and would revisit for sure.

  • "Lovely house very well furnished and appointed."

    Large bedrooms with en-suites and extra bathroom for the twin room. Hot tub is a real bonus. Loads of parking. Owner very helpful seeing to any extra needs. Handy for Skipton and Settle.

  • "We enjoyed our new year stay at Fogga Croft."

    The accommodation was warm and comfortable and ideally located for exploring the southern part of the Yorkshire Dales. We had a couple of very minor issues but these were promptly addressed by the owners.

    Thank you for your review. We really value your feedback. I’m pleased you found the accommodation warm (important in the winter for sure!). We pride ourselves on resolving any issue in a timely fashion and always encourage guests to speak with us as you did. Thank you for being great guests! Property Owner

  • "Fogga Cottage is comfortable to a high end level."

    The linens are hotel grade & it is extremely well equipped. The owner is accessible and really helpful. We really enjoyed being there. I wouldn’t book via Sykes again - they made an error on my booking & as they don’t want to speak to customers any more I had 3 stressful days putting it right. I’ve booked several times with Sykes but never again.

    Thank you for your review, taking the time for feedback is really appreciated. We love the linens look and feel (along with the hotel grade beds too). We try and think of all the someone might need when away so I’m glad you found the house to be well equipped. Sorry to hear your experience with Sykes. We always however make sure our guests have us as a point of contact as you mentioned to ensure every stay goes smoothly. Many thanks Caroline & David Property Owner

  • "We had a lovely week at Fogga Croft."

    There is a property immediately to the left which is undergoing renovation, this can be noisy at times. Close to main road, but we are used to road noise. Last photograph on the reel is actually on the grounds of the hotel across the road, sign says residents of hotel only. Can't really walk anywhere directly from the house as road busy and no footpath. Accessibility wise note there are 3 steps up into the kitchen from the living room with no grab rail, also downstairs bedrooms have a fairly big raise from floor level into shower. Kitchen is well equipped and good oven space. Induction hob which is fast, but no instructions how to use. French doors out to patio and BBQ are nice. BBQ in need of a deep clean. Dish soap, dishwasher tablets and multi surface cleaner all provided, as well as kitchen roll and bin bags. A few more tea towels would have been useful. Lovely welcome basket including gorgeous bread, milk, butter and some treats. Beds very comfortable, linen lovely and loads of towels. Shower gel, shampoo and conditioner all provided and plenty of toilet roll. Hot tub was a lovely treat and easy to follow instructions. Communication with Caroline and David was very good. A couple of problems cropped up, they responded immediately and ensured issues were sorted. Overall house is lovely and well placed to explore North Yorkshire.

    Thank you for your feedback and for choosing Fogga Croft. We’re so pleased you enjoyed your week, found the cottage comfortable, and appreciated the welcome basket and hot tub. We note your comments on accessibility. While we are not marketed as an accessible property, we will ensure our website and Sykes listing clearly state that there are steps to the kitchen and hot tub, and that the shower trays are raised and without grab rails. Guests with mobility needs may therefore require assistance. We also now have a 360° tour of the interior of the house, available on request. On the practical side, we’ve taken on board your notes about the induction hob — the short “how-to” video is already in our Welcome Guide, sent before arrival, but we’ve now also placed a link next to the cooker and will highlight it again in our pre-arrival email. Regarding location, following your feedback we’ve put together a list of lovely short walks nearby. The lake pictured in earlier marketing is for residents of the hotel opposite, but guests can enjoy it when using the hotel facilities, for example a coffee on their beautiful terrace — we’ve asked Sykes to remove the photo to avoid any confusion. The road in front can be busier during summer days as people travel between the Lakes and Dales, but evenings and mornings are generally peaceful. Our neighbours are currently carrying out renovations to a beautiful historic property, and we’re in regular contact with them — they’re very mindful of minimising any impact on our guests. We’re glad you enjoyed the kitchen, the comfort, and our prompt communication, and we’ll continue to maintain and improve facilities — including regular deep cleaning of the BBQ and keeping a plentiful supply of tea towels. We hope to welcome you back to explore more of North Yorkshire. Caroline & David Property Owner

    Plenty of space for family and friends to get ready in a relaxed environment. Cottage is well equipped, very comfortable, spacious and with a great hot tub. Located in a great place with easy access to all the area has to offer.

    Thank you for your lovely review. We’re so glad Fogga Croft gave you and your family space to relax and enjoy the wedding.

The generous open-plan living space features exposed beams, cosy sofas, and a woodburning stove (with an initial supply of wood and kindling provided), making it ideal for gathering together after a day exploring the Yorkshire Dales.

French doors lead directly out to the patio area, where you can enjoy meals in the fresh air or unwind in the private hot tub. The well-equipped kitchen and dining area has everything you need to prepare hearty meals, while thoughtful touches throughout the cottage include TVs in each bedroom and stylish furnishings. Fogga Croft Cottage offers six beautifully presented bedrooms, all complete with private en-suite facilities, so no sharing bathrooms during your stay.

Four of the bedrooms feature superking zip and link beds, offering flexible sleeping arrangements to suit families, friends or couples.

The utility area includes a washing machine, tumble dryer, travel cot, additional cot, two highchairs, and dog bowls. Outside, the patio offers a lovely spot to fire up the gas BBQ on summer evenings or simply soak in the hot tub while taking in the surrounding countryside. Fogga Croft is perfectly situated on the border of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, with excellent access to scenic walking and cycling routes including the Leeds-Liverpool Canal towpath, Cycle Route 68, and the famous Pennine Way.

You're also within walking distance of The Coniston Hotel, where you’ll find dining options, a bar/pub, spa facilities, and a shooting ground (access and use payable locally).

The village of Gargrave is just a short drive away for shops and additional amenities, while excellent road links make it easy to explore both the Yorkshire Dales and the Lake District.

Just 4 miles from the cottage lies the bustling market town of Skipton, known as the “Gateway to the Dales,” home to a historic castle and a celebrated high street lined with independent shops and eateries.
