“Fantastic well appointed cottage, loads of charm but modern aswell.”

E.g underfloor heating. Really well maintained and lovely homely touches throughout. Owners live on site but you don't see them unless you need them. They are, I should add a lovely couple.

Thankyou Mark and Judy for a lovely break.

Lovely and spacious with the small details thought about! Judy & Mark are friendly and approachable & small problems were dealt with promptly. Thankyou for a wonderful trip away!

“The owners were most welcoming and helpful, without being intrusive and nothing was too much trouble.”

The property which sits overlooking spectacular views, was very well equipped and tastefully furnished with comfortable beds and everything needed for a self catering holiday. It is a great area for walking and also easy access to places of interest by car, with many cosy pubs serving hearty food.

“Gorgeous house in picturesque locatiob”

This house is absolutely gorgeous! Stunning views in a beautiful and quiet location. The house had so many little touches which really made the house feel more like a home. There was loads of food and things left for us to use in the cupboards, including a gorgeous homemade ginger cake. Everywhere was spotless and of a very high standard. Would definitely stay there again!

“Great cottage maintained to a very high standard and in a super location.”

Coming from the Surrey commuter belt, we loved the peace and tranquillity of the farm and country surroundings. Judy and Mark were very friendly hosts and we were made to feel very welcome with the bread, home grown eggs and other supplies.

- Mr West, March 2019
“We had a great holiday, we loved the attention to detail of the cottage owner, the little girl with us was so excited she was allowed to collect the eggs from the chickens.”

A great place in a lovely setting.

- Mr Wilkinson, February 2019
“Fantastic cosy cottage full of character.”

We had a wonderful holiday everything was perfect. The lovely owners Judy and Mark made us feel extremely welcome. Cannot recommend this cottage enough we will definitely return.

- Mrs Gilderoy, February 2019
“We enjoyed New Year here in this beautiful cottage.”

Judy the host is amazing, she even popped round with a bottle of prosecco on New Years eve for us. The cottage is lovely, much bigger then the pictures show, great facilities and had everything we needed for 2 nights away with 8 adults, 2 dogs and a baby!

- Miss Earnshaw, December 2018
“Arriving in the dark complicated finding the house but we managed and were very pleased with what we found on arrival.”

This is a beautiful barn conversion with lots of tasteful features and was just what we needed for a party of 8 including three girls under 7 years who enjoyed the walks in the surrounding countryside each day.

- Mr Bolton, October 2018
“Absolutely love beckfield cottage we loved it so much from our first stay we had to return.”

Judy and Mark have made a beautiful cottage and are just so lovely and welcoming. Cannot wait to return again. Xx

“Just perfect !”

- Mrs Smith, September 2018
“The cottage was beautiful, we we’re greeted by the owner Judy on arrival and she’d left us a lovely hamper with local produce and treats for the children .”

We can honestly say this is the nicest cottage we’ve stayed in , a great holiday had by all .

- Mrs Hodson, August 2018
“The cottage is superbly equipped and decorated sympathetically.”

We were a party of three couples and it was lovely to find somewhere with three doubles, and for us all to sit together comfortably. The welcome pack was very generous, with the eggs and homemade cake being a highlight. The location is beautiful, but still with easy access to shops in Silsden and to the Dales. We’d love to go back again

- Ms O'dea, August 2018
“We loved it, cottage was amazing, surrounding area was stunning.”

- Mrs Thrift, June 2018
“As three of our party are well over six feet tall we would have liked to have known about the upper floor bedrooms having sloping ceilings.”

Having said that we managed but there were a number of head v ceiling collisions. The cottage was very well equipped and in a beautiful location. Nice to sit in the enclosed garden relaxing with the children and the dog.

- Mr Hummerston, June 2018
“It was lovely to just be able to relax in fantastic surroundings with my friends.”

Beckfield cottage is beautiful. I had a fabulous weekend celebrating my 50th birthday.

- Mrs Holmes, May 2018
“We had an absolutely fabulous week at Beckfield Cottage thanks to Judy and Mark.”

Our holiday was for 4 couples, celebrating a 30th birthday. It was great that we could have the beds all as doubles, and each bedroom was comfortable. The bath tubs are also huge! The cottage is in a beautiful setting, with walks straight from the front door. The free range eggs Judy provided us with were a lovely bonus, and the local farmer even gave us a chance to learn about sheep shearing which was great. I'd highly recommend this cottage, and we'll certainly be back. Sarah and John x

- Mrs Hartshorne, April 2018
“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and cannot wait to return one day in the future.”

Judy and Mark are wonderful hosts and our expectations were definitely exceeded. Thank you again! Megan

- Miss Bartle, April 2018
“We had a wonderful time.”

The cottage has been finished to a high specification, beautifully done. Generous starter pack and owners very helpful with regard to any issues. Excellent location. Walks on the doorstep.

- Mr O'hanrahan, February 2018
“I came to Beckfield Cottage to celebrate my 26th birthday with a group of 7 friends.”

The cottage was even better than I had expected and we had such a lovely weekend. The cottage had everything we needed to cook meals for the whole group and had the most beautiful views. It wasn’t too far from the centre of silsden to have a walk and we took a mini bus to Skipton, which cost around £15. I would definitely return in the future

- Miss Noble, January 2018
“A lovely weekend in a lovely cottage, the cottage and owner so warm and welcoming, we really enjoyed the unexpected welcome gifts.”

Great location, with amazing views of the Aire valley and plenty of walks from the cottage and midway between Skipton and Haworth, two interesting and picturesque villages/towns. We will be returning!

- Mrs Johnston, November 2017
“A four bed cottage excellently appointed”

A stay with friends at this excellently appointed cottage did not disappoint. With stunning views of North Yorkshire the bedrooms are large and bathrooms on both floors allow plenty of space. The kitchen diner has all that is needed for a week stay even though we were only there for 3 nights. The lounge has a log burning stove and logs were provided. We were welcomed with a home made cake and jars of preserves. Some points for the owner.... Some form of seating in the bedrooms would help. Maybe a larger fridge could be sited in the snug.

“A perfect bankholiday break!”

For a couple who have just started letting out their cottage for holidays, you couldn't have asked for much more! Genuinely was perfect break away over the bank holiday weekend. The owners were incredibly kind, welcoming an generous! The cottage is spacious, modern yet very homely! It's beautiful. The kitchen is excellent and very well equipped for all needs. The living room is comfortable and relaxing, and the log fire (with both wood, firelighters and matches supplied) made it extra cosy. Large TV with sky (if you wanted it...) and loads of channels. The bedrooms were lovely and spacious. Fluffy towels provided and clean white bedding too. Each of the 1st floor bedrooms come with a lovely view (either one of the fields and farm behind or the rolling hills and town below). The 2nd floor bedrooms also came with more than enough space for a couple, and if you were tall enough to look out of the skylight, a cheeky view too. The bathrooms were lovely. Separate shower and baths in both bathrooms and they were clean and stylish! Walk in shower with rainfall like showerhead was great. There's a washing machine and dryer if needed, which came in handy when one of us (mentioning no names...) slipped down a hill and clothes needed washing! Garden was gorgeous. Allowed for a BBQ in the evening watching the sunset, or a coffee in the morning watching the sun rise into the hills. Also, the field/farm behind the cottage had chickens and lambs which were adorable. Fresh eggs every morning made breakfast delicious! I couldn't recommend this place enough. The walks around the cottage were lovely, and it's a great location for other longer walks. Seriously impressed. The owners have absolutely smashed hosting/providing the perfect weekend hospitality. I highly reccomend and will look to return!

“Beautiful cottage in fantastic location.”

About the location

SILSDEN

Bolton Abbey 8.5 miles; Ilkley 8.5 miles; Skipton 9 miles.

The pretty town of Silsden, set on the edge of the stunning Yorkshire Dales National Park, commands sweeping views of the River Aire and its valley, and has a thriving community with local amenities. Although Silsden was originally an agricultural town, the construction of the nearby Leeds and Liverpool Canal meant that it later became an important centre for the mill industry, however the local economy is now largely supported by tourism, and it has become a perfect place to stay and explore the local area. Down the Aire Valley lies historic Skipton, known as “The Gateway to the Dales”, a quaint market town boasting an ancient castle open to the public, a beautiful old parish church and a colourful market occupying the cobbled setts each side of the high street. In 2008, the Academy of Urbanism voted the high street as the best shopping spot in Britain. In the next valley lies Addingham, 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 also 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”. With steam railways offering regular excursions through stunning scenery, canal day trips, castles and pretty market towns all available nearby, Silsden is a wonderful base for touring the Bronte Country and North and West Yorkshire.
