  • "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.

    My wife and I were visiting family in the area so did not do much sightseeing. The are is stunning though with lots of local walks. The owner leaves a lovely welcome pack of bread, milk and biscuits, there has always been a good supply of essentials like tea, coffee, sugar etc. Thanks for another wonderful stay

    Every amenity is catered for and the property is cosy and warm. There is a spacious back garden too to enjoy if the weather allows. Embsay is a fabulous quiet village with 2 good pubs serving good food at realistic prices and the village shop sells the essentials.

  • "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.

  • "Extremely clean, quiet and comfortable bungalow, good wifi, nice welcome pack and very accommodating owners."

    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.

    Mr and Mrs Lawson ate very helpful. We had all we needed for a comfortable stay and it is in a lovely setting. There isn't a dishwasher but there is a Morrisons and M&S food in Skipton to minimise washing up. . Plenty of exploring in a beautiful area of Yorkshire.

  • "I spoke with Rosamund the owner to say we had a lovely time but because the main bedroom window catch was broken we had quite a few big spiders in (which I hate!"

    ) nature I know but there were quite a few cobwebs in corners too so I think a deep clean is necessary. Overall a lovely few days, great for our needs & well equipped and welcoming. The bed was super comfy & all fresh & clean . The property could benefit from some decorating in parts but I feel this was reflected in the price.

  • "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.
