"Another good holiday at Wynnville."
The bungalow is well equipped and convenient. The location is very good, with two pubs serving good food and a useful village shop. Lovely villages, towns and countryside within easy reach. We hope to come again.

"The property was spotlessly clean and very comfortable with everything we needed for a pleasant stay."
A nice welcome pack of essentials is left to save going shopping. The property is nice and warm with everything needed in the kitchen if you did want to cook. Lounge has a good TV and comfy chairs and sofa. Beds are comfortable with plenty of storage for clothes etc.
Garden is nice, although it wasn't warm enough to sit out while we were there, but would be lovely in the summer.
This is our second stay at this property, as we find Embsay a nice quiet village close to all of the places we like to visit in this area of Yorkshire.

"This is probably the best equipped holiday home we have stayed in."
There was everything we could possibly have needed, including a hair dryer. The location is excellent with two good pubs in the village of Embsay who both do food (check with them first though). There is good access to lots of tourist attractions in the area, including Malham Cove, Bolton Abbey, Wensleydale Creamery and Aysgarth Falls. One tip is to run off a bowl or so of water from the hot taps before trying a shower as it can take a long time for the hot water to reach it, but it's no trouble at all. There are a lot of places we didn't get time to visit, so will definitely be back.

"We enjoyed our stay at Wynnville."
The bungalow was very cosy and warm and had all amenities (apart from a hairdryer). The shower had a very good pressure and the bed was good. The owners were very friendly and we would happily stay there again and can recommend it to anyone who would like to explore the surrounding area.

"A lovely property ideal for a couple, especially older as the chairs and bed are higher and there is a shower."
Spotless with everything you need to enjoy your break. The new tumble dryer is most welcome. Mr and Mrs Lawson are very friendly and nearby in case of problems. Embsay is a quiet village with a shop and post office and Skipton is a short drive away. There are many other really nice places to visit a short drive away. We really enjoy our stays at Wynnville

"Unfortunately we found the bed not very comfortable, sheets/pillowcases although clean are old and need to be replaced, carpets were badly stained, cottage decor and furniture needs upgrading."
Great selection of DVD,s but no DVD player. Every morning we found a snails on the Kitchen floor.
On the plus side the property is in a great location, gardens were excellent and the welcome pack of milk and bread was good. The surrounding area is packed with interesting places to visit.

"Wynneville is a lovely bungalow, exceptionally clean and well maintained."
It has every comfort and piece of equipment you could want although I did find the single bed a bit ‘soft’ for my needs. The lovely back garden is sheltered and has a table and chairs for when the sun shines.
The bungalow is in a lovely location, well placed for Skipton and touring around Yorkshire. The owners are very pleasant, and available to help or to give advice if you need it.

We would highly recommend a stay - it’s so convenient for travelling around Skipton and the local highlights such as Malham Cove, Ilkley and Embsay crag. There is good off road parking plus there is a bus stop a few minutes walk away if needed, we walked into Skipton (20 mins) on a few occasions which is very convenient and such a nice town.

"Your presentation of this cottage contains the following statement: "The spacious rear garden of this Embsay cottage is ideal for dining alfresco."
.."
Anyone considering a holiday in this cottage should be aware that the owners (who live next door) have direct access to its rear garden via gates in their boundary fence. Part of the cottage garden is used by them as a vegetable plot, which they enter to cultivate and water (we were staying in summer) without notice. This means that anyone wanting to use the cottage garden for "dining alfresco" or anything else should be aware that the owners are liable to appear in the garden at any time. We had this experience a couple of times, including one morning for several hours. Some people will not mind this, while others may feel that they do not have the full run of a facility (the cottage garden) that appears to form part of the advertised offer.
The owner's use of the cottage water supply (via an outside tap) to water his plants can also mean there is not enough water pressure inside the cottage for showers etc.
The cottage itself is excellent, clean and good value for money.
