Sandy Cottage

Lovely cottage, friendly village, excellent base from which to explore the Dales.

Public footpaths in all directions straight from the house & village. There is no shop in the village so do arrive with milk & basic essentials to get you started if you arrive after hours (closest shop is 2 miles away).

Sandy cottage was lovely and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

The beds are so comfy and the shower was fab. We always managed to get parked somewhere nearby, although it can get busy. We ate at the pub quite a few times, as it is great food and so convenient. The additional games and jigsaws were appreciated too. Thank you for a great holiday.

Cottage was larger than it looks on pictures.

..excellent location. Really clean & comfortable. Excellent shower... Downstairs toilet was a bonus Outside space lovely & secure for dog to sit out. Super comfy bed. And village is do peaceful & quiet...neighbours & resident villagers all really friendly..walks direct from the door.... Village gets very busy but I always managed to get a parking spot if I went out anywhere. Warm comfy & cosy.. Excellent communication with owner Constantina I would recommend...thankyou

Very pleased with the cottage, just as we had hoped.

Good size rooms. Very comfortable and homely. Good kitchen facilities. We were unforunately unable to park by the green and had to park on the road. This may cause a problem to less mobile guests. Overall village was very pretty and well situated to explore the local area. Lots to do.

The cottage was ideal for our stay in the Yorkshire Dales.

It was in a great location in a pretty little village. With plenty of nice walks to be found locally. The cottage itself had all the amenities needed for our stay and the kitchen was well equipped. There is a lovely village pub less than 100 metres from the cottage, which serves good food and drink. As you step out of the cottage in front of you is the village green leading to the beck, which runs through Linton. From there it is a nice walk along to Linton falls and over the pedestrian bridge above the falls. From here you can then walk up into Grassington or alternatively along the river in either direction. Grassington itself is a great little town with plenty of little shops, bars and restaurants to enjoy. From the cottage itself the nearby main town in the area of Skipton is only a short drive away and is well worth a visit. All in all we had a great week away and fully enjoyed the cottage along with the area.

Lovely cottage with rustic charm, in a picture postcard village, ideally situated for exploring the surrounding countryside.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay

A well equipped cottage with comfortable beds but unfortunately it needs attention and a deep clean in our opinion.

The maintenance team came out to fix a few problems immediately which was good. Beautiful patio area. Flooring and stairs look poor. I won’t say any more!! We cannot understand how Sykes gave this property a 5 rating.

We had the most wonderful stay at this cottage.

It was clean and had everything we needed for family of 5 including 3 young children. The children really loved the old traditional charm of the cottage especially the big traditional bath and the toilet downstairs was a massive bonus. We had lots of lovely meals in the cottage round the table and out the back with the BBQ. We loved this house and the owners were incredibly accommodating and helpful. Just outside the house is a wonderful little stream to paddle in and village lawn which is perfect for picnics. The pub next door is really good especially the food but it did not have the best Sunday lunch unfortunately. In this area there was so much to do for families. We really enjoyed Ikley, Skipton including the castle, Grassington and the Stump Cross Caverns. There were so many walks from our front door, it was just perfect. We will definitely be returning. Our boys did not want to leave the cottage so many new amazing memories made for them.

We had a lovely week.

The cottage was smaller than I expected from the photos, but it was fine. The beds were very comfortable which is a big plus. The shower was also really good, which can make or break a holiday! Nice 20 min walk to Grassington, good pub in Linton village, no issue with finding parking.

We had a lovely stay in Sandy cottage which was a great holiday home .

Very warm and cosy . The kitchen was well equipped and the beds very comfy . Situated in Linton with a very good pub only 2 doors away . A great location for walking. Would definitely recommend this cottage

We had a great stay in this lovely cottage.

Everything you might need was provided and the comfort of guests had obviously been thought through. Beds were very comfortable and the additional art work included in the cottage with its history explained in customer information booklet was really interesting. Two dogs were very welcome and it was lovely to be in a property where they were welcomed rather than simply tolerated! Parking was a little tricky as there was limited space around the village green in this popular village. Welcome tea and biscuits were very much appreciated.

A lovely little cottage and greater location

Sandy Cottage was a great place to stay and the village of Linton is absolutely gorgeous.

We had a wonderful time.

A lovely comfortable and well-equipped cottage in a brilliant location - we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay

We had a very comfortable stay in this gorgeous cottage.

The village is quiet, and very picturesque, and the cottage itself is gorgeous! Well equipped kitchen, good shower and comfortable beds. Would love to come back for a longer stay!

A nice cottage,set in a lovely village with access to some stunning scenery and villages.

A nice tranquil get away.

Lovely cottage in an absolutely picturesque village.

Great pub with good food a couple of doors down the lane. Great easy walks on doorstep to Grassington.

A really lovely cottage, very clean and well equipped.

We had a lovely week there. I would be happy to return .

Super cottage in an idyllic location with the bonus of being able to take our dog.

Clean, bright rooms with a comfy King Size bed and great power shower - perfect after a fun day walking and sightseeing in the Dales. Less than a minute walk to the exceptional village pub but with no noise problems. Before booking we read the comments about parking sometimes being an issue but there was only the Friday we arrived that we couldn’t get parked by the Green, and this space was still only a couple of minutes away. Can wholeheartedly recommend this property. We will be back

We had a wonderful week at Sandy Cottage, can't fault anything, will definitely look to stay again.

Thank you Constantina for all the tips and ideas.

We had a lovely week, the cottage is in a quiet village.

The green was just a few steps from the front door with a shallow beck running through. Friendly neighbours. We could go for walks without moving our car or short drives to good walking locations. Nice to light the wood burner on an evening and enjoyed a tasty meal at the pub, again only a few yards from the cottage! The host was helpful and friendly. Highly recommended.

A lovely warm well appointed cottage in a stunning location.

Lots of great walks both nearby and further afield. We would definitely recommend to others.

A wonderful and peaceful place - easy with small walks.

Nearby Malham Cove with scenic walks which we and our children love. We really enjoyed our stay.

Excellent cottage well appointed with everything you could need.

Parking can be a bit tricky on Friday afternoon/evenings and the weekend, but we always manage to get a park somewhere close in the village. Mid week is fine. Pub only a couple of doors down and does nice food and drink. Lots of walks from the cottage and Grassington is easy 25min walk straight from the cottage. Would also recommend the Old Hall Inn in Threshfield and the Carven Arms at Appletreewick for food. Would recommend.

Loved the cottage and the location.

Very clean on arrival. Lots to see and do in the area.

The cottage was in a beautiful village with the village green and river at the front.

Parking was a little difficult. The cottage furnishings were tired, and it was evident that dogs were allowed to stay. The floors needed sorting out. More could have been done to keep the cottage up to standard. We will certainly not stay again where dogs have been allowed, as the lounge smelled of dogs.

An absolutely wonderful cottage in picturesque Linton which makes a perfect base for plenty of good walks with dogs.

The cottage is comfortable and has a very well equipped kitchen - even a slow cooker. The green can be used like a garden so morning cup of tea, sat on the green by the stream was idyllic. There is a good pub, The Fountaine Inn, next door which does food and another one, The Old Hall Inn, in Threshfield which is a 20 minute walk along a footpath - torch recommended.

Lovely place to stay great location for country walking

Lovely cottage in a stunning location, overlooking the green parked the car for a week and just walked with the dog.

Nice small garden and a shower to die for can’t wait to return

We really enjoyed our week in Sandy Cottage.

The village itself is a gem and the location for walks brilliant. The cottage is a great base to return to at the end of a Dales day. The courtyard was a wonderful haven and the pub a must! We would recommmend this readily.

Really lovely cottage in a perfect location.

Well equipped, comfortable beds.

Lovely cottage in a great location, the walking from the cottage was wonderful.

Grassington was an easy walk and offered everything we needed but staying in Linton was perfect as quiet and tranquil with a great pub.

Excellent cottage, very comfortable situated in a wonderful position on a green in a picturesque village.

Very friendly local people and a particularly notable food serving pub almost next door. The only drawback was not having somewhere to park. Three nights, due to the popularity of the village, we had to park 300 meters outside of the village. During one of those nights, our car was hit and no details left. This took the edge off of a wonderful stay. The location in the Dales was terrific.

We had a wonderful week at Sandy Cottage.

Local walking, beautiful surroundings, warm and cosy cottage to return to. All the furnishings, rugs, fabrics and equipment etc. are good quality. The owner dealt with any queries promptly and efficiently. Linton is a beautiful village as a base, with the bonus of an excellent pub.

A wonderful location and cottage for a walking holiday, as so many popular, scenic routes can be accessed from ‘the door’.

We were able to ‘ditch’ the car for several days. The village is extremely pretty, quiet and we had no problem finding a parking place. The outdoor hose was handy for muddy boots and a mucky dog! Loved the bright furnishings and local paintings in the cottage. Earlier reviews mentioned small bath towels, but large ones have since been purchased. Spotlessly clean and fully equipped. The Fountains Inn serves delicious food and has a dog friendly bar. We thoroughly recommend and it is our intention to return to ‘Sandy Cottage’.

Well maintained old cottage in a brilliant position for walks around the Yorkshire Dales.

The village setting is stunning with the renowned Fountaine Inn just a few yards away for food and drink.

Lovely well appointed cosy cottage in pretty village location.

Great location for exploring the dales and beyond.

A well equipped, comfortable and charming cottage, perfectly situated for touring the Dales.

We were delighted to be able to enjoy cosy evenings by the log burning stove after a busy day touring or pop to the pub a minute away, with its lovely warm atmosphere and good menu. I would thoroughly recommend this cottage. Fiona Surrey

Lovely cottage in a beautiful setting.

Very busy little place for visitors. Not able to guarantee parking close to the cottage as all parking places rapidly filled by incomers. This was the only major drawback to the location. Otherwise idyllic setting for walks and scenery. Would strongly recommend -with the only caveat being be prepared to park away from the cottage wherever you can get a parking spot - sometimes on the main road.

Lovely cottage in a lovely village setting.

Local pub, village green with stream running through it makes for a great place to sit and relax. Great base for exploring the surrounding countryside on foot, bike or by car. We had a great holiday and would definitely recommend Sandy Cottage.

We have used Sykes before and have always been pleased.

Sandy cottage was the best rental so far; great location and the cottage itself was perfect.

An extremely well equipped cottage in an unbelievably desirable location.

So comfortable with absolutely everything that you could need. We have stayed in many many holiday cottages but this is without a doubt the best. If you’re looking for somewhere in The Dales book it you won’t be disappointed. Walks literally from the door, a pub fifty yards away and quiet too! But also within walking distance of Grassington. Perfect! X

Cottage was lovely, amazing holiday definitely will be back loved the area so many great walks with the dogs.

Fountaine pub down the road lovely food just AMAZING holiday people very friendly can’t wait to go back

Comfortable cottage in idyllic location wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again.

We loved Sandy Cottage.

It is very well located for visiting the area. A very cosy and comfortable cottage, spotlessly clean and well equipped. Very comfortable beds. We were a party of four adults and found that there was plenty of space. Would highly recommend Sandy Cottage to anyone looking to stay in the area.

Sandy Cottage is a delightful cottage in a beautiful quiet setting, perfect for exploring the southern part of Wharfedale

Probably the best cottage we’ve stayed in in terms of excellent location, size of property and facilities.

Gorgeous traditional dales cottage in lovely location - would thoroughly recommend

Lovely cottage in a great location.

Would highly recommend

Sandy Cottage is a little gem in the heart of Linton.

The cottage is a very delightful, fully equipped comfortable cottage that sleeps up to five guests and two well behaved dogs. The Cottage is situated in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales, with miles of rolling picturesque hills, rivers, which are a dream for walkers, and walking dogs. I would fully recommend a stay at Sandy Cottage.

Pleasant stay at Sandy Cottage.

Bed was so comfy. Beautiful surroundings would return at sometime in the future.

Sandy Cottage is well located to visit the Dales and for all activities- we went hiking, horse riding, for a picnic and swimming in the River Wharfe at Bolton Abbey, fishing and for great meals in the nearby Fountaine Inn.

The Bronte parsonage at Haworth, the ropemaker and Yorkshire Wensleydale creamery at Hawes, festival at Grassington all well worth a visit. The cottage has lovely interior decoration- will be copying some of the design ideas! The kitchen contained everything we could possibly need and the courtyard at the back was so nice- we enjoyed a barbecue and sat in the sun in total privacy, surrounded by flowers. We hope to return some day.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful village.

Very comfortable and well equipped. We had a great week, lots of walks. Highly recommend the pub next door.

Well what can I say.

....? This place is a hidden gem. You have to go to appreciate it. As soon as we entered the door we felt at home. Cosy, warm, quirky little house!!! I say little but really quite spacious for 5 people. We’ve been staying in cottages around the dales for over 10 years but this cottage stole the show!! Just book it! You’ll love everything about it. Perfect location, amazing owner ! This place will take a lot of beating. Love you Sandy Cottage..... see you again x

Lovely cottage in a beautiful setting.

.. only thins I’d say is that friends hired a nearby cottage for the weekend and they had some very useful books in local walks and an IS map of the area - would have been very useful!

Lovely, relaxing stay in this comfortable, beautifully clean and well equipped cottage, which had everything we needed for a perfect holiday.

Wonderful location in idyllic village, with great walks in the breath-taking Yorkshire Dales from the door and a gastro pub just a few steps away. Sunny weather meant we enjoyed sitting out in the lovely patio garden most days. A week wasn't long enough! We'll definitely be returning. Thank you.

The cottage was beautiful and in the most stunning of settings in a village full of character, yet peaceful.

Plenty of walks in the area. Dogs loved it.

We were delighted with the cottage and the surroundings.

The cottage was well supplied and kept clean and was in a charming village with good access to lower Wharfedale and surroundings. We would thoroughly recommend the cottage for a short or longer holiday.

Lovely cottage in a beautiful location especially if you intend to do some walks.

Really felt like a home from home.

Fabulous.

Lovely, good sized, comfy cottage in a quiet village location which provided the perfect base for a relaxing weekend.

Great cottage in a fantastic location, pub next door serves great food and drink.

Some lovely walks close by. Highly recommend.

The location of Sandy cottage is perfect.

Linton village is both beautiful and brilliantly situated for days out in the local area. The cottage itself is stylish yet very comfortable. We plan to stay again. Thank you!

A lovely cottage in a lovely location, an excellent weeks holiday Apr 2017
