Lovely quiet rural location with a nice welcome treat to greet us. Great to have the parking outside the cottage and close enough To Leeds and York for the Park and Ride facility. We would have appreciated a sturdy grab rail at the entrance to the cottage as the. steps are steep. I am elderly and found the rise difficult to negotiate and my daughter sprained her ankle as we were leaving to come home.
I had a really enjoyable and pleasant week-long stay at Robbie's Retreat. It was a perfect base from which to explore the Dales, with some local walks and access to the Nidderdale Way. The accommodation was well-presented and well-equipped. There was good communication with the owners, Brian & Sue. The welcome pack of home-baked scones, biscuits and preserves were both delicious and very welcome - had I needed extra there was ability to order more (and also eggs) from the farmhouse. Great farm stay accommodation in the Dales!
