Guest Book - The Dairy

As Editor of Lifestyle - the magazine for Motability Scheme - we visited The Dairy with a view to including the cottage in the magazine's 'Explore the Yorkshire Dales' feature. I am so impressed with the quality of the cottage in every way. Diane & Andrew are clearly passionate about providing a five-star facility that is warm, luxurious & fully accessible. Just wonderful in every way!

Returning Guests from Etton, Beverley, East Yorkshire - March 2018

Well! - what a week. A fantasy fulfilled. Sipping champagne, eating chops in front of a roaring log fire, watching it snow, snow snow, in a beautiful cottage. Thank you for looking after us. It's been a wonderful 70th birthday. Thank you for your card & present. We will be back.
Returning Guests from Pocklington nr York, North Yorkshire - March 2018

A really perfect 4 night stay. The Dairy really is exceptional. All the superlatives have been used by previous guests! It really is so relaxing and comfortable - with so much space and all the home comforts at hand. We are just so relaxed! Thank you to Diane & Andrew - perfect hosts & a special thank you to Diane who made sure we got a good view of the moon & stars with her telescope - despite 3 nights of cloud but on the last night, we did experience it. Wow! The area is stunning - we did some great walks (Aysgarth to Bolton Castle circular walk; Ingleton Falls Trail; West Burton & Aysgarth circular walk) and visited Hawes, Leyburn & Richmond. We WILL be back! 10+/10 !

Returning guests from Mansfield - February 2018

It would appear all the superlatives have been used previously by other guests. However, we have been re-introduced to self-catering with your exceptional attention to detail and finish within this property and your first class customer service. You deserve all the awards and accolades bestowed upon you. The Dairy is a fantastic holiday cottage. Thank you so much and we are going to book for next year immediately so we do not miss out - we cannot wait!
Guests from Rochester, Kent - January 2018

We had high expectations as The Dairy came highly recommended and we weren't disappointed - as everyone states exceeded all expectation. There was a warm welcome and lots of help during our stay, even more relevant due to snowy weather - we even had a daily road report (exceptional thoughtfulness). Many thanks Diane & Andrew.
Guests from Louth, Lincolnshire - January 2018

As everyone says - this is a perfect cottage. So comfortable to come back to after walking in the Dales. We saw red squirrels on the squirrel trail at Snaizeholme. We enjoyed a 6 mile walk from Yockenthwaite to Cray (White Lion) and back via Hubberholme.
Guests from Derbyshire - January 2018

Perfection - a haven of peace and tranquility in the Dales! Thank you x
