• "A lovely small but comfortable flat."

  This flat is in a perfect position for shops and seafront. Good bus service into town. The flat has everything you need. The use of a garage is really good as there are parking restrictions on the rd between 4.30 and 6.30. It would be useful if we could buy parking permits as twice someone parked in front of the garage and we couldn’t get car out.

• "This is a very comfortable modern utilitarian apartment."

  Very well equipted. Good cooker and a range of pans for cooking. Comfortable beds with lovely smooth cotton sheets and duvet covers. Very spacious. Only minor problem was the fridge behind the kitchen door. If someone opened the kitchen door whilst the fridge freezer door was open the doors blocked each other. Otherwise the kitchen is excellent. Good washing machine, iron and ironing board and space to air washed clothes. The town house is within easy walking distance of the town centre which has many interesting shops and restaurants. The owner is easy to contact if you have any needs. We had a lovely stay. My husband needed time to relax between his chemotherapy sessions. He has days when he feels tired so this was a wonderful opportunity for him to stay in a relaxing environment that was very clean. On his better days it was easy to access local National Trust Historical sites by car. I would also recommend the Brookes Sri Lankan restaurant. Within walking distance if you want to have a drink. Thank you Andy for a wonderful stay.

  Well placed for local amenities, Ilkley town and numerous walks around the moors. The owner was quick to respond to my questions before travelling, and friendly. Would book again.

• "Everything about Belle Vue apartment was excellent and even better than described on the website."

  Andy was a fantastic host from helping us with a query before we arrived to checking by text during our stay to ensure that all was well. The apartment was spacious and all facilites in excellent order. Very comfortable beds and a very well equipped kitchen ensured a thoroughly enjoyable stay. The location of the Belle Vue was ideal too - a five minute walk into the centre of Ilkley and a 20/25 minute walk up to the magnificent Cow & Calf. We would be happy to recommend the property to family and friends and would make a return visit without hesitation

  In a fantastic location just a short walk away from the town centre with plenty of shops and a artisan market every Sunday with plenty of food stalls for all you foodies. Plenty of walks for our four legged friends and dog friendly pubs and coffee shops dotted around the town. We would not hesitate to recommend this holiday let to anyone.

• "Beautiful space with everything for a very relaxing and comfortable stay."

  Donna and Andy have such a high quality duplex appartment/townhouse, super comfy beds, nice and calm with the bedrooms on the lower ground floor but still plenty of natural light. Ensuites in both rooms add to the luxury and easy access to the communal garden ideal, if you have your dog with you. Only 5 minutes walk to the centre of Ilkley, with a wonderful choice of coffee places, restaurants, walks along the river, cinema, Ilkley Playhouse...a fabulous place to stay. Thank you!

  On arrival we found Betty’s Lemon cake and milk in the fridge which was appreciated after a long drive. Access to the garden for our dogs was a added bonus and made us feel like a home from home. The apartment was absolutely spotless on arrival and the kitchen perfectly equipped with everything you need for a break. Andy the owner was extremely communicative on any questions and also called us to make sure everything was ok which was a really nice touch. Highly recommended. Thank you

• "I had a lovely stay ."

  Found parking an issue. Only had a small mini convertible and even then a bit of a squeeze. Neighbours also rang and said my car was in the way . There was maintenance work on two of the days of my stay so quite noisy and the front door was left banging. Difficult to adjust heating for downstairs. Very clean and perfect location.

• "A lovely well appointed apartment close to Ilkley and the Dales, beautifully provided with all one could need."

  The lack of street parking closer than 100 metres downhill from the house on most occasions took the gloss off the holiday and one got the impression that local residents resented visitor parking permits ( simply obtained online as directed by the owners).Loading and unloading the car for daily excursions was a misery especially with a dog who needed a crate to travel. Ideal for those travelling to Ilkley by public transport.

• "Fabulous apartment in a brilliant location 5 mins walk to town."

  Clean and welcoming with a treat left for us and our Labrador. Really can’t fault this property! A small inconvenience is there’s only one parking permit per unit but that was understandable due to limited spaces. We would highly recommend and will be back.

  Great location, friendly owners when I called, great atmosphere, great apartment with everything we could possibly need and treats for us and the dog on arrival. This is a definite must and so much better than a non-descript hotel. We had a great time and need to come again. I rarely leave feedback but in this case it is very well deserved.

• "A great apartment."

  Pretty much everything has been thought of. The kitchen is fully equipped and everything is beautiful. The location is excellent. Met one of the owners, who was lovely. There are two en-suite double bedrooms downstairs, and a loo upstairs, so really easy to have your own space. The living room is roomy, as is the kitchen.

• "We had a lovely week here and the house was absolutely perfect."

  Great, central location, parking usually available close to the house (once a free permit was obtained online) and everything was of a high standard and well-equipped. The only issue we had was the bedrooms (in the basement) were very difficult to warm up (very cold when we were there) as the thermostat is based in the hall way at ground floor level. Andy was very responsive and helpful but it would be a good idea to get this sorted out. We'll definitely book to stay here again on future visits to Ilkley though as it's a great place.

  Hi Mark Thanks for your lovely comments about the apartment with regards to the heating in the bedrooms we have had an heating engineer out to look at all the radiators and he has re-balanced them all so hopefully this should now resolve the issued you had we look forward to welcoming you back to bellvue very soon Kind regards Andy & Donna Property Owner

  You can walk into town and up onto the moor in five minutes. Access the moor by taking the public footpath to the left of the Craiglands Hotel (one of many options). The owner is very responsive and super helpful if you have any queries.

• "Belle Vue is a wonderful apartment, 10 minute walk from Ilkley town and the moors."

  Very well presented with quality fixtures and fittings. Lovely welcome gifts from Betty's tearooms for us and treats and ball for the dog. Exceptionally clean, just our style not too frilly or fussy, but homely. Didn't need to bring any extras, very well catered for with coffee, teas, loo rolls, cleaning and washing liquids etc. Comfy beds and powerful showers. Only slight complaint is that the WiFi could be better at peak times. Would happily stay again and would recommend to anyone! Ilkley is a lovely location, didnt move the car once, walked from the flat all week. (P.S. - Parking is free, you just follow the instructions in the apartment to register your car - very easy to do!)

• "An excellent place to stay, to explore Ilkley and the surrounding areas, and just a short walk from the centre of town and train station."

  With its many differing cafes, bars, shops and restaurants all tastes are catered for. The apartment itself was of a very high standard and spotlessly clean and has more than enough wardrobe / cupboard space. Parking is available opposite the apartment, by obtaining a free ‘virtual’ parking permit, online (full and easy instructions of how to do this are supplied in the extensive welcome pack). We would not hesitate to return to Belle Vue the next time we holiday in the area.

• "The apartment was totally brilliant, right up to leaving milk and biscuits for us."

  We think this home owner went the extra mile and we really appreciated it. Our little dog Evie really enjoyed her welcome pack too. Thank you! We didn’t enjoy Syke’s cheeky non-upfront ‘booking fee’ which came as a surprise at check-out meaning they competed unfairly with other cottage companies we were looking at. Because of the circumstances of needing to book somewhere we swallowed the fee to make the booking but basically all of the hidden charges added 25% on top of the baseline booking. £400 ish became £500 ish. Quite a hike. So in summary, we loved the accommodation but not the agent’s practice.
