“We stayed in Heron to celebrate our daughter’s 21st birthday and she described it as the best weekend ever!”

The cottage is lovely and had everything we needed. The hot tub was a real bonus and much used (even though it was winter!). Susie and her family have done an amazing job transforming Olicana Park into what it is now. Highly recommended.

“What an amazing cottage.”

Beautiful location and so tastefully appointed. The hot tub was a hit too. Couldn’t have asked for more to enjoy our week in Yorkshire. The extra touches like home made brownies, milk, bread and Prosecco were so lovely and welcoming. Only a few extras: in the kitchen a wooden spoon and a small non stick pan would be helpful. Plus maybe a child lock for the under kitchen cupboard where chemicals are kept. But really all very little things.

“Had a great week away here.”

Perfect location within easy reach of many attractions. Plenty of walks nearby to exercise the dog, and all within walking distance from the pub. We will definately be returning.

“Heron Cottage is one of the nicest properties we have stayed in since our first booking with Sykes in 2005.”

The standard of cleanliness, comfort and location are first class. We would highly recommend the cottage without hesitation and hope to return next year. The owner Susie and team work very hard to ensure everyone has a relaxing stay.

“Had a great holiday.”

The cottage was home from home. The beds were so comfortable and the hot tub eased our weary legs after a good days walking. Susie the owner and the staff were excellent, couldn’t do enough for us Would definately go again and explore more of Yorkshire

“Heron cottage”

We have returned from a wonderful week at Heron cottage. It is a beautifully ddecorated and very well equipped cottage. It's by the river Wharf, with gentle walks along the river on the doorstep. The hot tub was a big hit. As the previous comment noted, the cottage backs on to new lodges which are being built, along with a small cafe/ bistro just beyond the garden fence. These were unoccupied during our visit, but potential visitors to Heron ought to appreciate this isn't an isolated property miles from anywhere. If you like the buzz of a holiday park & the convenience of somewhere to eat over the garden fence ( and if the cafe reflects the standard of the cottage , which I'm sure it will) it's bound to be excellent, this is definitely a place to try. The Dales are captivating .

“The cottage is beautifully decorated and very well equipped.”

The location by the river allows for gentle walks along the captivating River Wharf. The cottage forms part of a small development of lodges, on the edge of a small caravan park. There is a small cafe/ bistro over the garden fence. The lodges were just being finished during our visit & were unoccupied. Once open, potential visitors should be aware that , although unlikely ever to be noisy and busy, there will be other holiday makers very near by.

“Wonderful place to stay - highly recommended”

We stayed in Heron 15-22 June and had a wonderful time. The cottage is a perfect balance - quiet, well-equipped, luxurious and great location! The owners are fabulous too, easy to contact and lovely people. Any requests or queries were dealt with so well. Wishing the owners all the bests with the new lodges (that we will come stay in soon hopefully). We can’t recommend this place highly enough, had such a lovely holiday. We stayed with our 3 year old daughter and labrador. Good walking nearby and a river for dog to swim in on the doorstep. Hot tub perfect to unwind at end of the day.

“Cottage was great as always with attentive owners.”

- Mrs Whitaker, March 2018
“When booking you told us there MAY BE building work you did not tell us that the cottage was sat in the middle of a building site with LARGE HGV lorries passing every day and some days having 2 or 3 lorries in front of the cottage at the same time reversing in and out.”

Most mornings waken at 07.45 to chainsaws, beeping vehicles we have videos and photos Also your stock pictures are not accurate Hot tub maintenance man starting cleaning at approximately 09.10 we have a dog he left the gate open Limited cutlery

About the location

ADDINGHAM

Bolton Abbey 3 miles; Ilkley 3 miles; Skipton 4 miles.

The historic village of Addingham nestles in the valley of the River Wharfe between Ilkley and Skipton, just 3 miles from the Dales National Park at Bolton Abbey. In the Doomsday Book, Addingham is referred to as 'Ediham', which probably meant 'Home of Edi', the Earl Edwin of Bolton Abbey. A corn mill was mentioned in 1315, near where High Mill is today, and the weir across the river is one of the oldest medieval structures in the village. Today's village is a thriving, small community with several good pubs serving fine ale and excellent food, a scattering of small shops and a delightful golf course surrounded by breathtaking countryside. Nearby Bolton Abbey is one of the region's most scenic areas and the walk along the river to the 'Strid' is a must. The Victorian Spa town of Ilkley is worth a visit, with its wide streets, world-famous Box Tree Restaurant and Bettys Tea Rooms, while Ilkley Moor is the subject of Yorkshire's unofficial anthem “On Ilkla Moor Baht at”. Grassington and Malham are within reach, plus Skipton is also close by with its ancient castle, beautiful old parish church, colourful street market, canal trips and Embsay Steam Railway.
