Guest Book - The Dairy
Diane & Andrew work hard to maintain this standard of cottage. It's always a pleasure to see them again and to spend time in the Dales. Sad time though with the passing of our Queen Elizabeth.
Yet another wonderful stay at The Dairy. We shall be going home fully refreshed and with new memories. Thank you for all the recommendations and advice and of course for the hospitality and for all you do to provide such a perfect holiday venue. We'll be back soon.
We have had such a lovely week at The Dairy - our first visit and now we have the best memories of all your special attention to detail which makes it an amazing place to stay. Quite superb. Now we shall look forward to our second visit!
Our third visit to this wonderful cottage. The perfect blend of luxury and accessibility. Fabulous hosts, amazing weather. We feel thoroughly relaxed and can't wait to come back!
Our third visit to The Dairy and another wonderful holiday experienced in such a beautiful cottage surrounded by amazing views. We really appreciate all the additional equipment available making the holiday far more stress free. Had a lovely day at Newby Hall & Gardens which is very wheelchair/scooter accessible. Also recommend Sunday lunch at Tennants. Enjoyed an amazing two hour trike tour (Yorkshire Trike Tours) experiencing breathtaking scenery. My husband has MS & very poor mobility was given every assistance required to physically get on the trike to enjoy this. Thank you once again Diane & Andrew for everything you do to make a stay at The Dairy such a memorable one.
Booked our third visit in 2020 in full confidence that Diane & Andrew would have Covid rules complied with 100%. Attention to detail, not only in the cottages but the whole holiday experience is what sets our hosts as simply the best you could wish for! Did not expect the 2 day heatwave when we booked but really enjoyed the shaded garden areas which provided a welcome retreat from the sunshine! Took the opportunity to visit Tennants for the first time, which was very nice and also to Wensleydale Creamery & Mainsgill Farm Shop - lots of animals to see. Aim to return for either Nicky's 60th in 2024 or my 70th in 2025.
Absolutely fabulous week. The weather was glorious. Cottage superb. It feels like our second home. Diane & Andrew are wonderful. Thank you so much. Didn't do any cooking. Tennants & Wensleydale Heifer brilliant, thoroughly recommend them. So looking forward to October.
Our second visit to The Dairy and just as enjoyable as the first. Lovely welcome from Diane & Andrew and helpful as always. Cottage immaculate. Will be back!
Thank you once again for our lovely holiday. Looking forward to 2023 when we can once again relax in this beautiful part of Yorkshire and of course this perfect cottage. See you in 2023.
What can we say, we love this cottage and The Byre and we just keep coming back. Diane and Andrew are almost like family now and are always so helpful and welcoming. Will be back same time next year.
Lovely cottage, lovely views, lovely host. Did we enjoy our stay? Yes, it was lovely! We will be back later in the year.
The creme de la creme of self-catering! Our second visit to The Dairy, just as magical as the first. Can't wait to come back again. Thanks so much Diane & Andrew for everything - missing you already!
(Poem) - After all that's said and done, The Dairy, for us, is second to none. A special place that never fails to offer perfection within The Dales. As ever, we've had a splendid stay, but missed your company day to day. So pleased you had a well earned rest, because you both are 'simply the best'! ... as always thank you for everything. Until we meet again at Christmas, take care.
Another fabulous week at this wonderful retreat. Thank you Diane & Andrew for the warm welcome and creating for us a brilliant holiday.
Another excellent stay for us at Cottage in the Dales. Weather has been perfect. The Dairy maintains its extremely high standard in everything and as usual, Diane & Andrew are the best of hosts. See you next year.
