“Stayed for a week as a family at Rowan’s Bank which was spotlessly clean and everything was of extremely high quality.”

All that you need is provided for with lovely touches and extremely comfortable beds and furnishings. Excellent Wifi too (which my teenagers very much appreciated!) A really warm and relaxing place to come home to after a day exploring. Claire was a lovely, friendly host who gave us lots of recommendations and kindly kept us stocked up on logs for the hot tub which is wonderful for relaxing in after a day out. The Yorkshire Dales are beautiful and we will definitely be returning to see ...

“We couldn’t have asked for anything more from our “stay-cation”.”

The setting in the south of the Yorkshire Dales was idyllic. The scenery was beautiful and the location of the cottage was perfect - set out in the peace and quiet of the countryside, but only a 5-10 minute drive to the local village of Silsden with all the necessary amenities.The cottage was amazing - spacious and spotlessly clean. Claire and Steve were perfect hosts, and did everything to put our minds at rest re Covid. As for the hot tub - wow - used every day! A perfect break! Couldn’t recommend this place highly enough. Try Stefano’s for great local Italian food and do not miss Malhamdale - stunning. Thank you, Claire and Steve. We desperately needed a break and we are so pleased that we chose Rowan Bank. Being greeted with bubbly and a steaming hot tub on arrival were lovely touches :-)

“We enjoyed a lovely, relaxing holiday at Rowan Bank.”

The barn was exceptionally clean, comfortable and well equipped. The wood fired hot tub was easy to use (once you get used to it) and so nice to ease our achey muscles at the end of the day after walking and running in the local area, whilst taking in the beautiful views. The thoughtful bottle of fizz and other goodies from the helpful owners were also much appreciated. There are stunning walks from the barn up into the hills and along the canal path to Silsden/Riddlesdon. Our teenage daughters loved the high rope course at Raven Tree Top Adventure in Skipton and Harewood House (near Leeds) is worth a visit. Ilkley is great for shopping and can recommend The Olive Branch for authentic Turkish cuisine. Stephano’s in Silsden does fantastic takeaway pizzas. Due to Covid we replaced Alpine mountains with Yorkshire hills but still had a brilliant time - thank you.

“As a family, we spent a great week at Jacob's Wood in July 2020.”

The host had gone to a lot of trouble to make the barn safe and very comfortable. There was a very generous provision of consumables (logs, dishwasher tables etc), The location is amazing- so many beautiful (hilly) walks from the barn door- its a very beautiful part of the world! The hosts were close by for any queries but never intrusive and always approachable. Of course, the hot tub was such a treat and very easy to manage. Instructions and information regarding our stay were clear and helpful. A beautiful barn in an amazing location with perfect hosts! Thank you.

“We booked this cottage as part of our minimoon and we had a brilliant time.”

When we arrived we were greeted by the owner to be shown around and there was fresh bread with bubbly and milk chilling in the fridge. The place is so clean with so many fantastic facilities. We were able to fully relax in this private location and even managed to have a walk out to a wonderfall waterfall. We had such an amazing time and we are even planning to book again for next year.

“We had a fantastic stay at Rowan Bank, the accommodation was very clean and well maintained.”

Great hospitality from the owners and the views across the hillside are beautiful! We loved watching the birdlife and walking on the many footpaths in the local area. Would highly recommend!

“What can we say.”

..except everything was PERFECT! The converted cowshed is not only stunning but sparkling clean! It has everything you need - I have never been to a holiday cottage that is so well equipped! The hot tub is such a treat along with the beautiful log burner inside! Claire couldn't have done more for us! What a special place they have here - you're in for a treat when you arrive as well - not only do they provide all the lovely essentials, butter milk biscuits etc....but beautifully warm fresh bread! We could go on for ages.....but If you're looking for a stunning holiday let in a great location close to the Dales and local amenities - look no further this is the place to book :)

“This was our 2nd visit and it was even more special than the first.”

Claire (the owner) had added lots of Christmas touches - a fabulous tree and a stocking from Santa - as well as the usual welcome treats. Little things that make a big difference. The only really small negative was the sofa which was soft and comfy but really low so sometimes quite difficult to get up from if you've got dodgy knees like I do!

Mr James December 2019

“The property was absolutely brilliant, unbelievably clean and comfy and the hosts were more than helpful.”

Would 100% return to this property. Claire the host had the hot tub warmed up ready for our arrival, left prosecco and crisps out for us and even baked us home made bread. Couldn't recommend enough,

About the location

SILSDEN

Bolton Abbey 8.5 miles; Ilkley 8.5 miles; Skipton 9 miles.

The pretty town of Silsden, set on the edge of the stunning Yorkshire Dales National Park, commands sweeping views of the River Aire and its valley, and has a thriving community with local amenities. Although Silsden was originally an agricultural town, the construction of the nearby Leeds and Liverpool Canal meant that it later became an important centre for the mill industry, however the local economy is now largely supported by tourism, and it has become a perfect place to stay and explore the local area. Down the Aire Valley lies historic Skipton, known as “The Gateway to the Dales”, a quaint market town boasting an ancient castle open to the public, a beautiful old parish church and a colourful market occupying the cobbled setts each side of the high street. In 2008, the Academy of Urbanism voted the high street as the best shopping spot in Britain. In the next valley lies Addingham, a thriving, small community with several good pubs serving fine ale and excellent food, a scattering of small shops and a delightful golf course surrounded by breathtaking countryside. Nearby Bolton Abbey is one of the region's most scenic areas and the walk along the river to the Strid is a must. The Victorian Spa town of Ilkley is also worth a visit, with its wide streets, world-famous Box Tree Restaurant and Bettys Tea Rooms, while Ilkley Moor is the subject of Yorkshire's unofficial anthem “On Ilkla Moor Baht at”. With steam railways offering regular excursions through stunning scenery, canal day trips, castles and pretty market towns all available nearby, Silsden is a wonderful base for touring the Bronte Country and North and West Yorkshire.
