“Excellent accommodation in an ideal location.”

Accommodation was very well furnished and had a good range of equipment. I would definitely recommend this place. Only reason I didn't put exceeded our expectations was because it would have benefitted from another toilet. Two couples with only one bathroom (particularly toilet) made it a little difficult at times. Perhaps this feedback could be given to the owner, as there would have been ample space on the ground floor to convert to a downstairs cloakroom.

“1. Extremely difficult to get parking due cottage at the end of a cul-de-sac, a public house opposite with accommodation, a hotel 50m from cottage, a B&B 30m further down hill.”

1a. Parking available outside house from 6pm to 8am - but usually taken up by pub customers. 2. Very steep hill to river, and town, this accommodation is not ideal for unfit people or less mobile people. 3. No where to take your dog for a short stroll, you will need to walk down a 300 foot hill, 4. Courtyard not accessible - belongs to people next door - so nowhere to sit when the sun shines. 5. Integral garage does not belong to the cottage. Cars parking outside dining room window and front door. 6. Very noisy on Friday and Saturday nights - due to coming and goings of cars and pub customers opposite the cottage. 7.Galley kitchen was too narrow for 2 people to access. 8. Kitchen utensils all blunt. 9. Nowhere to put soap, shampoo or shower gel when using bath or shower.

“Very well appointed and comfortable, the location is great and we had a good time.”

The fact that there is no usable access to rear courtyard is not clear on the initial material, this is important if you have dogs.

About the location

RICHMOND

Barnard Castle 10 miles; Leyburn 12 miles.

Situated at the entrance to Swaledale, the ancient market town of Richmond stands on a prominent hilltop site to the north of the River Swale. Its cobbled streets and narrow alleys or 'wynds' enshrine over nine centuries of busy history and unique character. The town grew up around its castle, a Norman fortress dating back to 1071, famously situated high above the river - indeed the name Richmond is derived from 'Riche-mont' meaning 'strong hill'. Today there are wonderful walks to be enjoyed such as the Castle Walk - a dramatic terrace walk beneath the castle walls - or alternatively walk alongside the River Swale where there are parks, safe paddling areas and small waterfalls to enjoy. Within the town, narrow streets and alleys radiate from the cobbled Market Place (which has a weekly market and monthly farmers’ market) and there are numerous shops, pubs and restaurants to enjoy. The town flourished in the 18th and 19th centuries and the resulting elegant Georgian architecture lines many of the old streets. The Georgian Theatre is one of the oldest surviving theatres in the country with visitors enjoying its regular productions all year round.
