"Loved the various food items that were provided especially the fresh eggs"
Thank you for your lovely feedback both on here and at the house Judith. I just wish we had known it was your birthday! :) Property Owner

"An enjoyable week in a comfortable property with good facilities."
My wife was particularly taken with the conservatory where she spent a relaxing time watching the local wildlife. She was so inspired by it that she bought a bird feeder on returning home.
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us James. Watching the birds certainly has become a feature for many of our guests at Kail. It's lovely to know that you are supporting our feathered friends now you are home. Property Owner

"Fantastic. Beautiful place in a stunning location."
The property is really clean and comfortable. Kitchen really well equipped. We enjoyed the peace and quiet, and watching the birds. Can walk to a number of pubs in under 10 minutes. We'll definitely be back.
Thank you so much, Emma. It was lovely to meet you both and we would, of course, love to welcome you back anytime. Property Owner

"Kial House is superb."
The quality of the kitchen is excellent and all the fittings and equipment throughout the house are high spec and so well thought out. We loved the garden, the birds the outstanding views. The area is beautiful; the pubs were from a bygone age, places where people talked to each other and offered food that was wholesome and delicious. The walks along the River Wharfe. Skipton and the canal. And Kial House to return to for relaxation at the end of the day. We will most definitely return.
Thank you so much for your lovely review, Christine. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to welcoming you back soon. :) Property Owner

"Superb. The property, grounds and location are all amazing."
We have self catered for over 40 years and this was the best equipped holiday accommodation we have ever had. Penny and John go above and beyond to provide a home from home. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your lovely comments, Ruth. It was a pleasure to meet you all and we really hope you come and see us again. Property Owner

Property was lovely with everything we could have asked for. Owners were also lovely and very accommodating. If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway, look no further.

Lovely house beautiful gardens and you can walk the dales straight from here. The only thing lacking is a pub in easy walking diatance.

"Only one small criticism the upstairs shower room is quite compact."
Everything was wonderful, fabulous linen and decor, lovely welcome pack and personal welcome by owners who were amazing hosts. The gardens and property were stunning. We will definitely be using Kail House again.

"We felt really lucky that we'd found this gem of a holiday home for our family get-together, meeting in the middle between London and Glasgow."
The house was beautifully furnished with care and attention to the smallest detail. The vase of flowers, the large fruit bowl, bottle of wine and essentials were very welcome and set the tone for a wonderful week. Our baby granddaughter loved watching the birds feeding, the cats mooching around and the hens clucking. Penny was super generous - we even came away with some of her foxgloves ("they grow like weeds here") for our garden... a perfect reminder of our time there. The photos and online description cannot do it justice. And it really is God's Own Country. Thanks to Penny and John.
Thank you so much for the lovely comments, Sandra. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us, it was lovely to meet you all and we really hope to see you all again soon. Hope the plants survived the journey home. Property Owner

"Kail House is spacious, comfortable, stylish, very well equipped and generously provided by the hosts."
But it is the setting which makes it special, in a sheltered but sunny spot with access to lovely gardens and, not least, a bluebell wood. And there is so much to do in the area that you hardly need to move. Highly recommended.
Thanks for the lovely feedback Iain. We hope we will see you again. Property Owner

"The property was perfect, we took our two little boys for 4 nights and it was absolutely perfect."
We bird watched every morning, spotting the woodpecker who turned up everyday. Everything you needed was there, even a bottle of bubbly and an Easter egg for the children which was a beautiful touch. I would highly recommend staying.
Aww, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay, Bethany. Please tell the boys Flap-Jack the woodpecker is still visiting daily and looking extremely well. Thank you for the lovely feedback we hope we see you again. Property Owner

"Kail House lived up to the previous reviews and listing description, providing a thoroughly luxurious and estately retreat in the heart of the Dales, yet within easy, picturesque walking distance of dales, the river and pubs."
One could readily immerse oneself in the views, location and atmosphere of the house and even without leaving the property be touched by nature. The house has been lovingly and exquisitely presented, with everything one could possibly want provided; we were made to feel incredibly welcome on our Easter break where the owners had thought about everything we could have needed. John and Penny are very attentive, nothing was too much trouble. Thank you, we would thoroughly recommend.
Hi Nicola - Wow, what amazing feedback! We are thrilled that you had such a lovely time. Thank you so much, we really hope we see you all again soon. Property Owner

"Kail House is a fantastic place to stay."
it's comfortable and has everything you might need - especially good is the fully equipped kitchen. It is in a great setting, quiet, with wonderful walks close by to explore the surrounding beaufitul countryside. The owners could not be more helpful and friendly. I highly recommend it
Thank you so much for the lovely feedback, Jane. It was a pleasure to meet you both, and we really hope to welcome you back later in the year. Property Owner

"An outstanding property in an idyllic location with spectacular views."
We were lucky enough to be the first ever guests at this exceptional property and we cannot thank John and Penny enough for their friendly, warm welcome. This spacious home from home is spotless and tastefully decorated to a very high standard; there’s everything you need for a cosy, restful, relaxing stay. The huge kitchen is extremely well equipped and arriving late at night we particularly appreciated the welcome pack provided. The bedrooms were very comfortable and well furnished, and the blackout blinds meant we slept soundly. The house is set in a beautiful garden with breath-taking views and is ideally placed for walking and whiling away the hours enjoying a tasty lunch or drink in one of the local cafes and pubs. Our mornings were spent lazing in the conservatory, which is the perfect spot for bird watching. We were lucky enough to spot a woodpecker and were entertained by the antics of the pheasants, chickens and cats. Afternoons were spent exploring some of the many walks in the area. We enjoyed taking in the scenic meandering river routes to Grassington and Appletreewick followed by a well deserved drink in one of the local pubs. And after all that fresh air we returned in the evenings to the warmth of a log fire in the lounge which had a great range of DVDs, books and games to keep us entertained. We have had the most relaxing holiday and look forward to returning. John and Penny have put a lot of love, care and thought into making Kail House the perfect retreat. We would highly recommend this exceptional property.
Thank you so much for such fantastic feedback. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay here. I don't think we could have had a lovelier family as our first ever guests and we would love to welcome you back anytime. Property Owner
