  • "We had a lovely stay at The Old Chapel, despite the wet weather!"

    The cottage was really cosy and peaceful, even though it was close to a busy road through the village. The cottage was really clean, beds were comfortable, the shower was great. The kitchen was sufficiently equipped for holiday cooking. Merlin, our greyhound, enjoyed his stay - we had to keep him on a lead in the garden as it is not enclosed, but he enjoyed a run around at the dog field in the village (needs booking in advance, but quite a few slots were available). It is a great location for exploring the area and we enjoyed visits into Otley, Bolton Abbey, Fountains Abbey, Ilkley and a trip into Leeds. We will be back!

    Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We are pleased that you had an enjoyable stay. We really are in a fantastic location for getting to so many towns as well as visitor attractions and great walks. I shall pop information on the dog exercise field in the guest information folder as that may be of interest to other. We hope to welcome you back in the future. Property Owner

    Regular buses (including evenings) into Otley for a wider range of amenities and restaurants - easier than driving and means both of us can drink. Easy access to Harrogate. More electric sockets in the lounge would be useful - we had to unplug the standard light in order to charge a laptop. Also a dishwasher would be welcome - there is space if you move the position of the large fridge/freezer to the other side. Dishwasher would be more useful than a washing machine.

    Very clean and well kitted out with some thoughtful touches. Nice and quiet. Like many I feel a dishwasher would get that extra star, especially when there for a week and there is plenty of space for one. Also a tumble dryer would be helpful as nowhere really to hang washing. The blinds in the bedroom could be better, very bright from the crack of dawn but I had an eye mask! Pillows awful but bed very comfy. Local pub with good food an added bonus. All in all a lovely stay, highly recommended.

Chocolate biscuits and milk in the fridge was a nice touch. More than enough room for the two of us but possibly a little tight for a family with only a small lounge. Easily accessible private parking space at the front of the property and a secluded garden area for when the weather improves (it snowed when we were there!). Bedrooms a good size and only minimal noise from next door. Wifi worked well and we used our Netflix subscription on the television, which is a large size. Oven and washing machine both used and worked well. Only thing that would be an improvement would be the addition of a dishwasher in the kitchen - plenty of room and who wants to wash up by hand on holiday? All in all, a very pleasant stay and the icing on the cake -only 30 minutes from Leeds to visit family. We have booked to stay again in March!
