Property code: OC-DS168

Set in a quiet cul-de-sac in Ilkley, this detached home is a wonderful base for adventures in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. It lies on the edge of the world-famous Ilkley Moor where you can admire the unique rock formations locally known as the Cow and Calf Rocks. Just 1 mile away is the heart of the town with its shops, pubs and the iconic Bettys Cafe and Tea Rooms. And on sunny days, very little tops a refreshing dip in Ilkley’s open-air lido. If you fancy venturing further afield, you could hop aboard the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway (10.5 miles) and journey through Bronte country on a steam train, or discover local towns and attractions such as Bolton Abbey (6 miles), Pateley Bridge (16 miles), and Grassington (19 miles).

From the entrance hallway, head through to the comfortable lounge where you can sink into the sofa or one of the armchairs beside the electric fire and watch a film on the TV. A study offers a selection of books if you fancy reading instead, as well as a desk if you need to catch up on any work whilst you’re away. Also on the ground floor is a kitchen, dining room with French doors to the garden, and a handy WC. A bathroom and four bedrooms can be found upstairs on the first floor: two king-sizes (one with an additional folding bed), a double, and a single bedroom.

Outside, a large, mature garden features a patio area where you can dine alfresco during the warmer months while the kids are entertained with the wooden playhouse, up a couple of steps on the lawn.

Perfect for us as a big family. Piano was excellent. Big dining room table was lovely. Back garden is beautiful. Ilkley is a perfect location, everything we needed and the countryside is spectacular. Walking up Cow and Calf was fun for the kids.

Many nice features. Beds are comfortable, no shortage of hot water, the garden is loverly. Not so nice is it is not clean. Black mildew round front door. Dirt and cobwebs in corners and behind curtains. Back corners of cupboards with insect droppings and dirt. Unacceptable was 3 inches of brown toilet water in the toilet cleaner brush holders tRead morehat dripped off the brushes as it sat used. Disgusting.. I didnt get the feeling that the hosts cared if our experience is a great experience but that we were just income for them. My advice. Put yourself in the renters shoes and go the extra mile, furthermore you need new cleaning crews and someone should check behind them. I will not recommend or return to the house. Hide
