"A really lovely cottage in a stunning location."
The property was clean, comfortable and had everything we (and the dogs) needed for our stay.
The location is incredible, with beautiful Dales walks from the doorstep and plenty of places to stop off for a bite to eat and a drink (or two . . . ) within easy walking distance.
Already planning out next trip and would be more than happy to be based at Pemba Cottage again.

"Second visit to this lovely cottage, and every bit as good as the first."
Extremely well equipped, well presented and very comfortable. Warm and cosy despite being a chilly week in December. Excellent dog basket to welcome the four legged members of the family. Walks to Grassington, Burnsall and Linton straight from the door, and ideally located for accessing all of the Dales landmarks. Highly recommend a stay here.

"Beautifully presented cottage in a wonderful location."
Lots of little extras within the cottage that make you feel right at home such as a selection of tea and coffee, pork pies, hand soap in the bathroom and dressing gowns in the bedroom next to the giant comfy bed. Really well looked after cottage and we managed to park right outside every day. Fabulous area with some great walks right on your doorstep. Lovely pub within a stones throw that serves excellent food and Grassington is only a 15-20 minute walk away along a lit road with pathway for a wider selection of pubs. If you are eating out in the evening I recommend you book if it is in the summer months as they get very busy. The whole area is very dog friendly. This is the loveliest area I have stayed in England and definitely the best cottage

"Pemba is a very comfortable, welcoming cottage in a delightful village."
There was great communication from Jon who with Nikki went above and beyond providing everything we needed even for Lily our border collie. The bed was fabulous so much so that we have ordered a mattress for ourselves. There were so many nice touches to the cottage eg the selection of tea and coffee and the delicious pork pie and port. The decor is so bright and homely. The location is exceptional, we walked over 10 miles each of the 4 days we were there and no need to drive anywhere if you didn’t want to. We had a much needed G & T/pint at the local pub on a couple of occasions after a brilliant day’s walking. We were extremely lucky with the weather and had a perfect holiday. Thank you so much. Sue, Chris and Lily.

"Our break at Pemba cottage coincided with the hottest week of the year which made going out walking each day very tiring but the scenery was stunning."
Pemba proved to be a perfect base for many walks straight from the door without using car (which incidentally you park right outside the front door!) and that for us was so easy.The River Wharfe is very close by and you can walk that in either direction and there are many other great places nearby Malham Tarn, Brimham Rocks and Bolton Abbey all recommended.
The cottage itself has no garden so we didn’t take our dog... we should have brought her tho as the cottage is very dog friendly and there’s no shortage of open spaces to walk a dog very close by so next time she’s coming with us!
The bed was, as others have said, extremely comfortable and lovely to laze in after a day out wandering.
We had a great week in Pemba cottage and port and pork pies as a welcome gift was a lovely gesture-thank you.

"This little cottage is everything and more!"
As a Sykes employee, I booked this gorgeous cottage for our first little getaway with our new puppy (her first time being able to walk on the lead) and it was perfect. I was blown away by how cosy everything looked when we first arrived, from the beautiful bedroom with the most comfortable bed (I NEED to find out where that duvet is from) to all the little added extras, the pork pie and port in the kitchen waiting for us and all the little treats for the puppy. We spent 4 nights here but could have easily spent the week, the pub across the road was our local and where we went every night, literally not even 1 minutes walk away from a spar also! We went into Grassington and also Skipton and then also spent a day in Malham walking to the Gordale Scar. The cottage is in a great location to be able to drive to all of these places with such lovely scenery on the way! We found Grassington slightly quiet but once we discovered the Devonshire pub, we loved it. We surprisingly didn't eat out once, because the house and kitchen was so cosy and had so many facilities we were able to stay at home and cook anything we wanted. It also snowed when we were there which made it even better! The only issue I would say that we had, was that there is no garden, but it wasn't too much of a problem for us as we took the Puppy out on her lead most of the time but maybe wouldn't visit here in summer because of wanting somewhere to sit and eat outside. Aside from that, I couldn't fault this little cottage. It has the 5 ticks for a reason and we loved it all.

"The cottage was excellent: tastefully decorated, well-equipped, and very comfortable."
The kitchen had everything you could wish for, including supplies of very good tea and coffee. I would suggest clearer instructions for the oven and the central heating: the oven I could only get to work if I put the timer on, and the central heating was clear enough for temperature but not regarding putting on a timed on/off. But these are minor quibbles as both oven and heating were efficient.
The location of the cottage was also very good: with a local Spar, pub and even bus-stop! We did two walks from the cottage and explored Wharfedale and nearby areas such as Malham Tarn/Cove, Bolton Abbey and Skipton. Very impressive.
