Carrholme Cottage Reviews

Caroline
Fabulous weekend with family to spread our mumnan's ashes in a beautiful part of the UK. Fantastic cottage, everything there that was needed. Perhaps an actual bbq rather than the fire pit as we struggled a bit cooking for 9. Ideal location, close enough to amenities but isolated enough for full relaxation
Carolyn
A very comfortable property indeed with tasteful decoration throughout. Outside, we thoroughly enjoyed the extensive garden and hot tub whilst inside, the Aga was a welcome feature on chilly days, and evenings round the log burner were so homely. It was an excellent base for our family celebrations as well as a great location for exploring the Yorkshire Dales.
Superb cottage with amazing, fully enclosed garden which is safe for dogs note theres a pond in the garden but it has a wire fence around and netting over it. 5 mins from Settle and lovely fell and riverwaterfall walks literally from the door. Owner very helpful and friendly if needed. Would highly recommend for a very comfortable, very high quality stay for a relaxing break.
Stephen
Carrholme Cottage more than lived up to the description in the listing. With its lovely large garden and hottub, together with direct footpath access from the cottage to a variety of walks onto the fells or by the riverside, it was perfect for our large threegeneration family gathering.
Jonathan
A beautiful period property, well appointed and presented. Plenty of thought had been given to the guest information pack, which we found veryy useful. There was plenty of space for a multigenerational family to spread out and come together, even though most of our time at the cottage was spent indoors because of the weather. The exception was the hot tub which everyone loved. The grandchildren loved the small secret door between the two halves of the first floor. They had the twin rooms one each and their parents were just on the other side of the door. We were very happy with our stay and only wish it could have been longer, and with better weather!
The property didnt meet our expectations for a number of reasons The Aga made the kitchen and dining area very warm. Whilst this is ideal in winter it is a significant disadvantage in the summer. The owners should seriously consider switching the Aga off when warmer weather is expected The other cooker in the kitchen has an issue with its temperature gauge as on the two occasions we tried to use it to bake as our baking was spoilt as the temperature was far too low.
Joseph
This property is perfect, incredible facilities, throughly clean everywhere and nice personal touches like wine and cake in the welcome hamper! Overall an epic place with a hot tub, real fire and a decent sized kitchen
Carrholme was the perfect place to stay for a friends get together. Plenty of room for all of us in a beautiful, comfortable and well equipped home. The children loved playing hide and seek and trying out the hot tub, not to mention toasting marshmallows! It was great to be able to go on a variety of walks straight from the front door as well as being close to Settle for any last minute shopping.
Daniel
Perfect location for exploring, far enough out of the town to feel properly rural and isolated but close enough to be able to nip into Settle for everything you would need from there. House and garden are amazing, loved the hot tub and the wood burners and the beds were so comfortable. Only downside is the shared drive but that was a very minor thing compared to all of the positives.
A really lovely house. Great location with walks from the door. Comfortable rooms and beds. Very clean. Sitting in the hot tub at the end of the garden is wonderful. The kitchen is a good size. Only point to note is that with a couple of the bedrooms you have to go down stairs to get to the bathrooms.
The cottage was beautifully designed with everything provided for a perfect relaxing weekend stay. Located in a quiet hamlet with lots of walks on the doorstep and easy access to Settle town . We are looking forward to returning.
We had a lovely time at Carrholme Cottage the property was very clean and the views and hot tub were amazing. Everything worked well and the restaurants and pubs locally were great.
Georgia
Carrholme Cottage was amazing! The cottage itself is around a 15 minute walk from Settle and is in such a picturesque location, with an incredible garden and hot tub to use. The house itself was absolutely spotless and the bed and duvet was so comfortable and of an extremly high quality, we slept like babies! Would definitely recommend this cottage for a group of people, we had an incredible time.
This stunning large cottagebarn was exceptional far better than the photographs! The location was excellent, close enough to walk to settles wonderful pubs, cafe and shops but with direct access out onto the hills. The cottage facilities huge hot tub in particular and beautiful tasteful decor far exceeded expectations with the cleanliness second to none. A real gem of a find.
Andrea
Let me start by saying that it is a beautiful cottage, done to a high spec and is just gorgeous to look at. However, there were cobwebs over the range and in the kitchen and also skirting boards as we bent down to plug something in, we noticed were not clean. We would have expected a tea towel and salt and pepper as basic provision but there were none. We also had to find our own charger for the bluetooth speakers as they were flat and no charger could be found. One broken one was found There was a baking tray we went to use that had been put away unclean and I mean, baked on food and grease. The owners could also have popped an explanation in their do's and don'ts mostly don'ts! about the town parking disc situation and some take away menus perhaps. Loved the cottage, and company was fab, but would not stay there again because of all the aggro and lack of detail. Shame.
Andrew
Carrholme Cottage is delightful and has been done to a very high standard with quality fixtures and fittings crucially, very comfortable bed! . The garden is beautiful and the hot tub area feels like a hidden oasis. The location is great for country walks and bike rides from the door, but with all the facilities of Settle within easy reach.
The pictures do not do it justice.
Christine
Just spent 4 lovely days at Carrholme cottage. The garden was pretty and the hot tub was an added bonus which the children loved. My only niggle was the downstairs en suite lacked a shelf as there was no where to put toiletries, no mirror and perhaps a hook on the door would help, and 3 toilet rolls for 4 bathrooms for 13 people!! Needless to say we had to go shopping! Yes we would recommend Carrholme it's a beautiful cottage in a lovely part of the dales.
Lovely clean cottage. Lianne was very helpful and gave us lots of information. All members of party were very happy with their stay and very comfortable. Thanks.
Great venue, well placed, hosts very helpful
Carrholme Cottage is an absolute 10 out of 10! The location is perfect, with the Lake District about 30 minutes away and the Yorkshire Dales within a couple of minutes drive. We went for a 30th birthday celebration with family, we enjoyed it so much that we didn't want to come home. The house is absolutely stunning! I would strongly recommend this holiday home to anyone.
This lovely cottage tucked away down a little lane is just amazing. Arrived for my 60th Birthday Weekend with all my family including four little ones, there was lots of space for everyone to unwind. The bedrooms were so comfy and warm, but take some logs for the fire if you are travelling in winter, it makes the lounge so snug and warm. The secret at the bottom of the garden, the hot tub, was just brilliant.Lying looking up millions of tars on a January night outside was worth a million dreams. Great for touring the area, lots of pubs in Settle close by. All in all..brilliant.
Carrholme Cottage is highly recommended. The owner, Lianne was extremely helpful and immediately responsive to our queries. The cottage is beautiful and decorated to a high spec, in fact it exceeds the pictures on the website. Lianne had also decorated the cottage for Christmas which was very much appreciated. We had 12 people and a dog and the cottage easily and comfortably accommodates that party size. It is deceptively large with lots of space inside and out. The garden is lovely at any time of year, hot tub and firepit were made good use of during our New Year holiday. The location is great with easy access to walks from the doorstep. The resident owl made an appearance and we were treated to an amazing firework display by the neighbours. Definitely five stars.
Loved the location of the cottage, the character and comfort, log burners and of course the hot tub. Fantastic
The accommodation was fine and I have already spoken to the owner to give feedback, when we met during the holiday. I did find, however, that, once the booking was made, Sykes bombarded me with too many emails to try and sell yet more holidays, which was not appreciated.
Alison
Beautiful cottage stunning garden. Would definitely return.
Michelle
Absolutely brilliant service from Sykes Cottages and from the owners of Carrholme Cottages.
Carholme cottage was even better in person than on the photos. It was spacious, well decorated and cosy. Our whole group were really impressed with the cottage and thoroughly enjoyed our weekend there. Key collection was straightforward and Lianne was very helpful. We'd definitely recommend to friends!
We had a fabulous short break at this amazing house. It totally blew us away so much so we are going back again for another dose of this stunning place
Wow!! What a find ! A stunning cottage, that very comfortably accommodated 12 of us. The cottage its self was beautiful with a great mix of modern decor and stacked with period features. All mod cons, a great dining space for big family mealsafter dinner games with a cosy log burner. The living room and snug were great, adults and children could have their own space but still be close and again another log burner made it so cosy. The bedrooms were all gorgeous and really spacious. Outside the beautiful garden and the Secret Spa was just fab. Drinking fizz in the hot tub surrounded by birdsong, the resident owl and having pheasants totter across the lawn was just brilliant! Can not recommend enough will be back!
Pamela
We had a beautiful week away in the carrholme cottage everything was just right for us all, the little added touch made it so special for me and my family and would recommend it to anyone with a 10 star rating, thank you Lianne for renting your property to us and will be back in the future.
