“'Stonecroft' is a little gem with parking.”

There is nothing that hasn't been thought about to make your stay comfortable. Fantastic walks on the doorstep, nice places to eat and the cottage could not be more central to the village.

“Lovely cottage, beautiful location, literally a minute walk from the castle.”

We were there during Storm Ali, and once inside the cottage we couldn't hear or feel the wind! Made welcome with nice biscuits, milk and costa coffee pods. Parking is a little quirky, but we learned to come in past the castle and out down the hill. Our dog was welcome, but with no garden we had to walk him nearby. Lane next to castle, met loads of other dog owners there. Ideal location to visit the dales, and a lovely village with pubs, excellent fish and chip shop and local general store.

“Home Away From Home”

This is the 3rd long stay I’ve had the pleasure of doing at Stonecroft and as always it’s hard to return back to reality. The cottage is like a second home...all the comforts, excellent location to anything needed and hosts that keep the cottage in excellent standing. I’d highly recommend staying there anytime. The only season I’ve missed so far is the fall. It’s a perfect place to stay and enjoy. Thanks.

“Absolutely loved it!!”

Stone croft cottage is in a lovely village with great pubs, lovely food and lots of racehorses! We spent a great week at the cottage. It is well set out, lovely and homely but with all the mod cons you need. The log fire was great and we loved the kitchen, the beds had crisp white linen on and were really comfortable. We took our dog Nelson and he loved laying by the fire in the evenings. The bathroom is modern with a big bath with shower over. The Tea, coffee, milk and biscuits were a welcome treat when we arrived and the fire was prepared ready for lighting. We loved everything about the cottage and also the village, Andy & Jayne made booking easy and we will definitely be returning to stonecroft cottage. Loved it !! Thanks Andy & Jayne x

“traditional character cottage”

The cottage was full of character and was very well equipped with everything needed. It had a very nice modern bathroom which looked to be recently installed. There was a stove which was set ready for use but despite the weather not being very good the cottage was still cosy enough not to need it . There was also the nice touch of milk, t bags and biscuits supplied for a cuppa as soon as we arrived. The market square with a good choice of restaurants and tea rooms was just a 2 minute walk down a lane at the side of the cottage. The parking area at the cottage was quite tight and we were advised not to drive on down the lane as the bottom of the car might hit the ground. We did try as it would have been difficult otherwise and managed o.k but it might depend on type of car. Also a name sign outside would have been good as we were not sure if we were at the right property.

“Amazing christmas!!!”

We couldn't have asked for a better cottage to spend Christmas. The photos are good but do not do this cottage justice, it has such a warm homely feel. The size was perfect for two couples and the cottage is located very conveniently in a tiny picturesque village with 4 pubs, spoilt for choice! The village is also an excellent location for day trips through the Yorkshire Dales. The lack of online reviews had me concerned, but the guestbook located in the cottage has hundreds of lovely reviews, many from returning visitors. Highly recommend if you are looking for a peaceful break in the countryside.

“Lovely and Comfortable Cottage in peaceful location”

The cottage is quaint and well laid out with all the mod-cons (apart from a coffee maker!) The rooms are spacious and the furniture good. The location is perfect for getting into Middleham and to its castle. Some lovely walks around here. Only draw back - the pub 20 yards away, on the weekends very rowdy into the small hours.

“Wow! Best cottage we have ever stayed in.”

We had a lovely 4 days in this superb cottage. Travelled up on a cold November evening. Finding the cottage was not a problem, directions were excellent. Cottage was very luxurious, lovely living room with open fire, which was laid ready to light. Very soon, the cottage was warm and toasty! Kitchen was well laid out and well equipped with loads of character. Upstairs were two comfortable double bedrooms and a lovely bathroom. The cottage had wi- fi too, which was very handy. Middleham is a lovely Yorkshire village, with plenty of facilities, including 4 pubs, fish and chip shop, Chinese takeaway, and village store. We preferred to do our shopping 2 miles up the road in Leyburn, where there was a fantastic local grocery store as well as a Coop. The cottage was in a perfect location, right on the edge of the dales. We suggest a trip to Hawes, nice shops and cafes, and the Cheese factory with plenty of samples! We had a great short break in this cottage, my partner and I got engaged during our stay and would love to stay again. Many thanks for a lovely holiday!

“Cosy, conmfortable, central”

Stonecroft proved to be a most comfortable cottage in the interesting small village of Middleham. As overseas visitors we enjoyed exploring the village buuldings and shops. The cottage was well supplied and most comfortable for the two couples. We found it a good base for exploring further, although this was somewhat hampered by severe flooding in and around North Yorkshire. Once we were accustomed to the parking area at the front, and how to access it, it was quite reasonable. The directions given were good, but amde more sense once we were there. The fire added to the overall experience.

“relaxing,cosy, peaceful cottage”

we were at the cottage only 10 minutes when the owner came to see if we had evrything we needed and explained how to work the appliances and the fire. the cottage was lovely and cosy.spotlessly clean and very welcoming. the local pubs were friendly with excellent varied priced meals.the black swan and the black bull were our favourites.excellent fish and chips from the takeaway. didnt like the parking very much as it was barely enough room for the car and was on a steep hill.you need a good hand brake.

About the location

MIDDLEHAM

Leyburn 2.5 miles; Richmond 12 miles.

The attractive Wensleydale town of Middleham is renowned for its history and race horses. Much of the history is bound up with its Norman castle, which dates from 1190 and has a castle keep second in size only to the Tower of London. The horses are a great sight as they make their way to the gallops every morning. The pretty market square is partially cobbled and offers a range of shops, pubs and places to eat. The bustling market town of Leyburn is just a short drive away offering a variety of great shops and pubs, or why not take some time to explore The Forbidden Corner, a unique labyrinth of tunnels, chambers and surprises set amidst 4 acres of grounds, providing a fun day out for all the family? All in all a superb base for exploring Wensleydale and all within easy driving distance of York, the North York Moors and the Yorkshire Dales and Heritage Coast.
