    My whole family just stayed in the Blacksmiths cottage. Beautifully converted barn, stone, oak beams, wood burning stove and bursting with character. Angela was warm, welcoming and helpful, expressing Yorkshire folk in the best way. Absolutely loved the place and location and will be back again and again. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay. We were privileged to stay there.
