Coates Lane Farm Cottage

Found it very comfortable an had everything that we needed for our stay a pint of milk would have been handy as nothing there for when you arrive but no problem to us we packed some anyway not everyone may do that an could be disappointed when unable to have a cuppa after what could be a long journey with the nearest shop about 4miles away having said that this no criticism of the property an we would happily stay there again walks from the door ect in what is a lovely dale

This was our third year at Coates Farm Cottage cottage.

It's location means that we can park the car until it's time to leave a week later! There are so many wonderful walks up, down and across the dale! It is a quiet and peaceful location with lots of information on local walks and places to visit if you really want or need to get in the car. We hope to be back again next year!

This was our second stay here and would probably be where we'd choose again if we were holidaying in that area.

Lovely cottage, good base for walks from the door and further afield.

All the equipment we needed and very cosy.

A delightful cottage in beautiful surroundings.

Very comfortable with everything you could need. We couldn’t find any current instructions about recycling and rubbish so we googled it. Apart from that everything was perfect

Lovely cottage.

Very well equipped. Starbottom is a very small village no shops but a great pub. There were lots of good walks from the door and local bus meant you do not need to use the car. The only negatives were the outside space would benefit from a bit of weeding and we found the bed very hard

Starbotton is a quiet little hamlet, the cottage is surprisingly roomy inside and adequate.

It was as advertised, no surprises, we only had breakfast in but the kitchen was well equipped if you wanted to cook a meal. I had great sleeps I think combination of comfy bed and pillow and walking up the steep hills ( mountain) with the pooch. The area has some lovely walks sadly the weather wasn't kind to us however the last evening we found the path on the main road down to the river where you could walk into Kettlewell 2 miles and Buckden 2.5 . I left directions in visitors book as I couldn't find any mention of walks in info. Overall we enjoyed the quietness. ** the pub next door only opens wed to sun.

FIFTH TIME OF VISITING STILL AS GOOD AS EVER

Warm cosy cottage, exceptionally clean, everything you needed , nicely enclosed for dogs, which he loved, another lovely relaxing stay.

lovely walks

Lovely little cottage.

Perfect for a walking holiday.

Lovely cottage in a very good location.

Great walks from the door and good pub next door. We had a lovely stay and nice weather. Thank - You

Well appointed and cared for as an old property.

Good communication from owners and all possible needs catered for. Would recommend.

Our fourth visit to this lovely cottage, handily placed for so many Yorkshire attractions and walks.

Everything is provided that you could want for your stay. Including a good pile of logs (should you need them). We have always thoroughly enjoyed our stays

Lovely comfortable well equipped cottage

This was a superb holiday.

The cottage is in a delightfully quiet position and is excellently placed for local walks. The wood burning stove is a brilliant feature.

We enjoyed our stay at this very well equipped cottage.

Lovely area, fabulous dining pub next door and really friendly local people. The cottage was very old and dated as noted by other guests who had stayed there. It would have been nice to have doors on the cupboards in the kitchen and have the microwave and fridge in the kitchen instead of the pantry, the bathroom taps were very quirky and had to be turned many times before the water came out and the heating didn't come on when it was supposed to. However it is an old characterful property with lots of space, in a fabulous location with a cosy log burner and lots of logs and none of the above quirky things were a great problem for us and we would be happy to stay there again. Many thanks

Absolutely perfect cottage for a lovely holiday We very much enjoyed our stay Only one thing No welcome pack!

We loved the cottage and the area.

Lovely walks along the river and a picture postcard village. It is peaceful and comfortable and has everything you need for your holiday.

The cottage was very comfortable and had all the facilities that we required, especially appreciated as the weather was not kind to us.

The instructions for the key safe were not the right ones!

. It took 5 minutes in the pouring rain to sort it. Otherwise the cottage was the best we have ever stayed in and, we have stayed in a few!!

This was our first visit to Coates Lane Farm Cottage and what a wonderful cottage it was!

We were surprised how much space there was! We had everything we needed and more. Even the added bonus of the gate straight into the pub car park! We hope to be back again in the cooler months to make use of the log burner.

Enjoyed our stay very much.

A bit disappointed in that the shower head leaked in all directions when in use. This was mentioned to the caretaker before departure.

Our 2nd Stay At This Lovely Comfortable Cottage With Everything you need Provided.

Thankyou.

Lovely cosy cottage, with fabulous walks directly from the cottage and great pubs

The cottage was superb with all the facilities we needed.

We were unlucky with the weather which meant we spent more time in the cottage during the day than we usually would so the cosy fire, the comfy seating, the well equipped kitchen, the good wi fi signal and the tv were much appreciated. The beds were also comfortable so we slept quite well , however it is an old house so the floors and stairs do creak very loudly, a night time visit to the bathroom will waken all but the dead

We go to Coates Lane Farm Cottage every year and always have a great time.

The cottage is lovely in every way - comfortable, warm, beams and well equipped.

We had a lovely few days in Yorkshire.

The cottage was very clean and comfortable, it had everything we needed, the woodburner was lovely in the evenings. We had a lovely meal at the Fox and Hounds pub, which is right behind the cottage. Everyone was very friendly and the food was as very yummy.

We really enjoyed our stay at coates lane farm cottage.

everything was provided to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. Lovely cottage and a great location for walking and going to the pub.

Another pleasant and relaxing week spent at this comfortable cottage.

The owners have provided everything you could possibly need and then some. The Fox and Hounds pub just outside the back gate is a definite bonus. Note that this is only open for 5 days each week but the Buck Inn, Racehorses Hotel and Blue Bell can help fill the gap.

Comfortable cottage with parking for 2 cars.

Walks from the door and a very good dog friendly pub close by.

Lovely cottage nicely situated with good facilities.

Welcome pack and good supply of logs, if it gets cold.

We had a lovely stay and thought the cottage was very clean and comfortable.

We did have a bit of difficulty working out how to use the heating. The heating didn't seem to come on for long enough in the morning to make a difference and it was still quite cold, although it did warm up during the week. On the night that it rained hard water leaked in through the ceiling on the landing near the bedroom doors. We left a bucket to catch the drips and a note for the housekeeper.

Beautiful cottage in a lovely village.

Great walks on the doorstep. Everything in the cottage for a comfortable stay. I would thoroughly recommend this cottage.

This was our third stay at Coates Lane Farm Cottage and was another very enjoyable experience.

A great deal of care has obviously been taken by the owners to ensure that everything a visitor might possibly require is provided. We were particularly impressed by how clean and well presented the cottage was when we arrived.

absolutely perfect cottage for a lovely holiday.

.comfortable, roomy, well equipped and great communication with owner if needed..all in all, a great find and will definitely re-visit

We stay at Coates Lane Farm Cottage every year and love it here.

It's our favourite annual holiday, not just because we love the Yorkshire Dales but because the cottage is such a lovely, comfortable and relaxing place to stay. We're already looking forward to staying here in 2022.

Lovely old cottage in wonderful location and well equipped with all you need for a wonderful stay.

Lovely cottage .

Ideally situated. Close to good Public House. Nice Log Fire

We had originally booked this cottage for the end of March 2020, but with all of the uncertainty surrounding travel and social restrictions at the time, we felt that it was most unwise to commit to travelling around 200 miles at a time when it was quite possible that such journeys would be prohibited at short notice.

We explained this to Sykes, once we had been able to contact the office, and proceeded to rebook for later in the year. That incurred a rebooking fee despite our decision not to take up the original booking slot being based on the advice then being offered by the government. The same situation arose in October, when we had to rebook again, thjs time for April 2021 - and again incurred a rebooking fee. On both occasions that we had to rebook, we found the response from Sykes' staff unhelpful to the point that we seriously considered just throwing away the rental charges that we had already paid. We also found the company's policy of charging rebooking fees when our need to rebook was a consequence of government advice completely unacceptable. We will not be booking future holidays through Sykes - ever. Our holiday itself was really good, when we finally got there.

A very comfortable cottage with a spacious living room and well equipped kitchen in a pretty hamlet in the heart of Wharfedale.

We very much enjoyed our stay

Cosy, comfortable cottage, with everything we needed.

We enjoyed giving the wood burner a go. Great place for walking from. We hardly used the car. Pubs nearby, offering good quality meals. We hope to return next year. We had a wonderful break, thank you.

Having paid an inflated price for the new year week we arrived on Friday 27th Dec.

(it was cold and wet) to find the cottage FREEZING. The description says ". . cottage offers warm welcoming accommodation. . " - this could not have been further from the truth. We then spent the following 24 hours trying to get the property to a reasonable temperature. It would appear that the cottage had not had guests for a few weeks. The caretaker had been to the house prior to our arrival as there was milk in the fridge. WHY was the heating not put on at a low setting? We have stayed in many holiday properties in all seasons and this was certainly the most unwelcoming property we have encountered. A truly miserable way to begin a weeks holiday.

If I were to book the cottage again I would take my own towels and tea towels because the ones provided were hard and had a smell to them.

Couldn't fault the cottage in any other way. It was a very enjoyable stay, thankyou.

This cottage is in a superb area .

The facilities are excellent in this cottage . All the booking arrangements went very smoothly thanks to Sykes Cottages

The cottage was beautiful and had everything you could ever need.

The standard and comfort was exceptional. The village was lovely and friendly and the local pub is brilliant. The scenery in and around the area is some of the most beautiful I have ever seen. Our dog loved the walks and we left refreshed and very happy. We would definitely return.

Very cosy cottage, great location, good pub next door.

Well equipped little cottage right next door to a pub.

.fabulous location!!

Great cottage in an excellent location with plenty of walks and good pubs nearby.

Will definitely return.

Lovely cottage.

Great location for exploring Upper Wharfedale.

Cottage was extremely equipped and very comfortable.

Located exactly as described, easy off-street parking at the door. Quiet village in a beautiful central bit of the Dales which was ideal for exploring.

Lovely cottage and some nice personal touches such as some milk tea and biscuits so that we could relax after a long journey.

Location wonderful some lovely local walks and central enough to make easy travelling to all the sights thank you for a lovely holiday.I will certainly book through you again

The cottage was cosy and with character.

It was quite well equipped and comfortable. It was in a lovely area with good access all around the Dales.

Lovely cosy cottage.

We very much enjoyed our stay. Highly recommended.

It was a gem off a little cottage in a fantastic area .

It says it all as I have booked it for next year

Lovely well equipped cottage with open fire, comfy beds and all you need for an enjoyable stay - bit off the beaten track for our liking and a very small village with not many amenities - however the cottage was really nice warm and homely and lovely and clean - we enjoyed our time there despite the weather.

We had a lovely stay - the cottage was in such a brilliant location for walking and exploring.

Everything!

What an amazing holiday cottage.

It had everything we needed for a comfortable and peaceful stay in the Yorkshire Dales. Open fire, comfy bed and a well equipped kitchen/storeroom. Plenty of information and excellent WiFi throughout the house. Starbotton has a friendly staffed pub serving food and ales and Cecilias does a fantastic rustic Italian style pizza. Buckden and KettleWell are within a two mile riverside walk. The Wensleydale Creamery, where you can taste test over 30 different cheeses for free is in the village of Hawes which is approx 15miles away. It also has a cheese making demonstration, cafe and gift shop. There are plenty of walks for you and the dog if you have one including Buckden Pike and the lead mine. I can’t wait to stay here again!

Loved the cottage and the area.

I would recommend it to family and friends.

Lovely comfortable cottage, really well equipped, it had everything you could want.

Wonderful setting, loads of lovely walks from the door. Will certainly return

Appreciated the supporting emails leading up to our holiday.

The booking was straightforward and simple The cottage was very good for what we wanted,ideal for lots of good walks with a friendly pub almost next door selling good meals .

we had a really good time despite the weather thankyou

Cottage was incredibly well appointed .

It was comfortable and cosy with a fabulous log fire. There were lots of walks around the village along the riverbank. We enjoyed good food and beer in the fox and hounds pub next door . Totally recommend this cottage for a relaxing break .

The cottage is a lovely, old cottage in a beautiful Dales village.

It's well equipped and very comfortable. We intend to return.

Very pleased with the Cottage, the pictures do not do it justice.

Spacious, comfortable, and very well appointed. As pet owners, we always worry about our dogs in cottages, but Coates Lane Farm Cottage is one of the best suited that we have stayed in, with sensible carpets and flooring downstairs making it easy to keep clean. The rear enclosed garden is hard standing making it easy to clean paws and avoid muddy footprints.. We found our short break there very relaxing, and will definitely be going back.
