The Folly Reviews

What a fabulous stay! Everything within the Folly is top quality and well thought out to make the most of the space whilst providing for your every need. Chris and Sally are the perfect hosts, making sure you have everything you need and offering great advice on things to do in the local area. The bed is super comfortable! There are lovely walks right out of the door, and the Fountaine Arms is a short walk over the bridge, and serves lovely food. Given it was a week in March, the weather was very good, and the Folly remained warm and cosy for evenings spent relaxing after busy days. The hot tub is a great way to ease any aches and pains. Waking in the morning and looking out on the new born lambs was a real treat. We highly recommend staying here, and will return to explore more of the glory of the Yorkshire Dales.
My partner and I recently spent a threenight stay at this charming countryside cottage. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the immaculate cleanliness and the cozy, wellappointed interiors. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, ensuring restful nights. One of the standout features was the private hot tub, which was both pristine and wonderfully relaxing, offering a perfect end to our days. Our hosts were attentive and thoughtful, ensuring we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The cottages location was ideal, nestled in a tranquil setting with picturesque views of the rolling hills. Overall, our experience was nothing short of delightful. We left feeling rejuvenated and are already planning our return visit. We highly recommend this retreat to anyone seeking a peaceful and luxurious getaway. Thankyou Chris and Sally !! Pam & Martin
Had a really great stay at The Folly. Wonderful location for walking, countryside views and the pub literally across the green. Linton is a picture perfect village. The Folly itself is as described, it's a compact space that has been cleverly designed, and was fine for 2 of us and a dog. Great to have the hot tub, and the owners were lovely and keep the place immaculate. Quality decor and furnishings, and bed sofa is super comfy too. It had everything we needed for a mixture of selfcatering and eating out.
Lovely and friendly hosts, and beautiful location
Matthew
Beautiful cottage in a great location. Kind and helpful owners. Would definitely stay again
We absolutely loved our stay at the Folly. Everything was perfect. We commented on how lovely the interiors were, how well equipped it was and how it was done to such a lovely spec. It was such a perfect location for a quick drink or lovely roast at the pub, as well as some beautiful walks. Thank you so much for all your additional help during our stay, and for being so friendly and approachable. We had a bit of trouble with the hottub our own fault, and you could not have been more accommodating, something that not many other owners would have done for guests. We will definitely be back soon, as we actually got engaged on our trip to the Folly! We look forward to returning in the near future for another stay at the lovely Folly.
Deborah
Our stay was fabulous. We have not visited Yorkshire before and we found it amazing. Linton village particularly was beautiful. The hot tub was a great addition to the stay. We both commented on the absolute peace of the location with zero noise pollution. The Folly was slightly smaller than the photos indicated but it was still a lovely accommodation. The bed was amazingly comfortable, even my husband agreed, and that is something rare!!
Rebecca
What a lovely place to stay. Really warm welcome, great communication from hosts. Easy to find from the info on the listing. Lovely walk into Grassington, beautiful surroundings. Hot tub was fab! Thank you so much for having us.
Really lovely time , Chris and Sally are great hosts . Beautiful property and location Definitely would return
Darren
Great little place, very cosy during our stay which was minus degrees and frosty outdoors. The decor is very neutral and felt modern yet cottagie. The bed was very comfortable and the place was immaculately clean. Some great walks to Burnsall and Conistone via the falls. Not too far to walk into the beautiful little village of Grassington but if you cant manage the walk, Linton is very picturesque and the Fountaine pub is great for food and decent beers.
Lovely property but extremely small.
A fantastic place and location to stay, with amazing views. The owners were lovely, friendly and helpful people. We will definitely be back!
Edward
Had an absolutely fabulous stay at the Folly for a week. Facilities were fantastic. Everything in the property was top of the range. Cooker, hob, fridge freezer shower was all excellent. The hot tub was excellent and well maintained by Chris and Sally. They both made us so welcome. The only complaint I have is we couldnt stay another week ! Thank you Chris and Sally for your hospitality and I dont think it will be too long before we return to your beautiful Folly kind regards Eddie & Julie Jones
Lovely property in picturesque village in Linton. Clean and cosy. Stunning views to enjoy breakfast with!
Lorraine
Beautiful place to stay perfect for couples, lots of places to walk and local pub is only a 3 minute walk. Chris and his family made us feel very welcome and The Folly is luxury especially with the hot tub we slept very well for the week we were there. We will return and definitely recommend this place to stay

Delightful property with great finish fabulous shower & good quality hot tub ,the hosts cannot do enough for you fresh milk a lovely touch,the local pub is literally a stones throw away over a lovely little bridge,if we had to say anything slightly negative it is smaller than we expected & the parking would be nice if it was directly outside the property but a lovely stay.
Jacqueline
Had a lovely welcoming stay at The Folly, the property was immaculate inside and out. Everything needed for a perfect 3 night stay. The hot tub was a lovely place to soak in after hours of nearby walks and one evening caught the stars above. Fully enclosed garden for our dog was also peace of mind. Pub across the green was lovely too, go online and book though as people without bookings and dogs would have to wait. A lovely stay, would recommend and would definitely return, thanks Chris and Sally.
Jennie
Excellent accommodation, really clean and well thought out. The location is fantastic for walks in the dales. Chris & Sally were friendly & helpful but not intrusive. The patio & hot tub were lovely & peaceful, looking out over fields. A patio umbrella for hot days would be helpful as it was in the sun for most of the day with no shade. Will definitely highly recommend to others.
Really enjoyed our stay at the Folly, very modern and cosy, just what we needed for a few days break and the hot tub was great and just what we needed after some long walks. Everything is on your doorstep for nice walks with beautiful scenery. Chris and Sally were very pleasant and friendly and always on hand if you needed any advice or help. Would deffo stay again.
Sabrina
The Folly has everything you need for a break in the Yorkshire Dales! Everything has been done to a high standard with well thought out amenities to make your stay comfortable. The enclosed patio is perfect for dog owners. We enjoyed visiting malham and Grassington whilst we were here. Would highly recommend!
The property is exactly as described. The location is idyllic and the views breathtaking. We were met by the hosts at the property, where we were given a quick run through of where everything was within the property. The kitchen was fully equipped. The bed was unbelievably comfy. The location is ideal for lots of walks within the area. Or just to unwind for a few days. We would definitely recommend The Folly.
Lovely cottage with stunning views and in perfect location for walking and the pub! A little tight in the cottage, but we had such great weather we were out for most of the time and when in the cottage mostly in the hot tub! Hosts were super helpful and friendly and we really enjoyed our stay! Will be back hopefully next summer.
Joshua

Rachael

Richard
Really friendly host, thank you for a lovely stay. We will definitely return.
A delightful peaceful setting and a comfortable and stylish property. Lovely hosts available if needed. Great area for walking or relaxing. Local pub for good food. A great base for the Dales.
Kendra
We have just come back from a week at The Folly. We had a lovely relaxing break. The Folly is in a quiet, private location with stunning views. Chris and Sally are excellent hosts and communication was brilliant. The Folly is immaculate and well decorated with modern equipment and everything you need. It was lovely sitting in the hotub looking over the hills and watching the sheep. Thresfield is a peaceful village with a lovely pub that serves a good pint and delicious food. We would definitely return.
Chris and Sally were most welcoming hosts, the property was top class in every way and location perfect. Would to return.
Excellent base for a couple and pooch, especially if walking. Lovely location and idyllic setting. The Folly was immaculate. Communication was fantastic with the owners. Thank you.
Alison
We really enjoyed our stay at The Folly. The property was immaculate and well set up. You have all the amenities you need to cook and prepare food and The Fountaine Inn located across the bridge provided excellent food and drinks after a long day walking. The hot tub is private and looks out over fields, with only a few sheep for company. Great to sit back and enjoy some fizz while the sun goes down. There are lots of great walks and locations to visit from The Folly. We walked down to Grassington, passing Linton Falls, and enjoyed a coffee in one of the many cafesrestaurants. We also walked in the opposite direction past the neighbouring farm following a path to Hebden then back across to Grassington which was longer but full of fantastic views. All locations are dog friendly with many fully loaded treat jars on hand. Chris & Sally were so friendly and welcoming. They were happy to advise should you need recommendations and were on hand should you need anything. We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay in the beautiful property, great location and will definitely return.
Had such a lovely little break was a last minute decision and we werent disappointed with the accommodation we found. Beautiful location with countryside all around. Sitting in the hot tub on an evening and in the morning was really peaceful. Plenty to do around the area a nice little pub very close by. Had a walk to Grassington across the river which is so picturesque and not very far. Could have explored further but we felt like taking it easy! Perfectly clean and comfortable accommodation. The only issue we had was with the TV and internet. We couldnt get any signal on the evenings when we tried to use it but wasnt too bothered as we came for everything else really. An additional feature we would recommend would be a little bbq outside. Thanks to the owners for accommodating us!
Judith
Location superb. Very well appointed. Chris and Sally very accommodating. Would definitely return.
Hannah
We had an amazing stay at The Folly, Sally and Chris were so welcoming and helped sort out a nice birthday surprise for my partner. We enjoyed our stay so much and are very sad to be home! We would love to come again. Thank you so much
Carlton
An absolutely amazing break at The Folly. Booking was simple. Chris and Sally went out of their way to make our stay memorable. The Folly is beautifully presented and we wanted for nothing. The hot tub was an added bonus after a long day exploring The Dales. The Fountaine Inn is a must for dinner. Book early to avoid disappointment. Thank you for a wonderful time. We will definitely be back.
Suzanne
Absolutely fantastic stay. Lovely scenery, within walking distance to lovely villages. The Folly was beautiful, clean and so comfy couldn't have asked for anything more had everything you need. Chris and Sally were so friendly and helpful. Will definately return.
Louise
We have just stayed at the Folly for 3 nights. The property was finished to a very high standard and very clean! We had everything we needed in the property and the enclosed garden was perfect to let our puppy have a little run around on his own. The hot tub was gorgeous after a long walk and not too hot like others we have been too! We loved walking through the fields and watching the lambs play. The village is small but very picturesque and the local pub was lovely and friendly. The owners of the property were very friendly and always on hand if you needed anything at all. We will be back! Thanks for a lovely stay. Louise, Chris and Pablo
Denise
This is a fantastic cottage very clean we stayed for 3nights, plenty of feedback ... This is a fantastic cottage very clean we stayed for 3nights, plenty of feedback from the owners, there if we needed them, the pub was a short walk away serving excellent food, we had our old dog with us so couldn't do any of the walks but there seemed to be plenty to do, lots of places to visit a short drive away, had a great weekend and would definitely recommend this cottage
Matthew
