Alma Cottage

Comments from our visitors' book

"A wonderful Christmas. Lovely cottage. Some good walks. We will come back again. So much to see and do! The best appointed cottage we've stayed in so far!"

"Had an absolutely splendid time. The weather was excellent with added treat of snow on New Year's Eve. Lovely cottage with everything we needed. Christmas decorations were a nice touch and made the stay truly festive. Would recommend to family and friends."

"I really enjoyed wonderful holidays at Alma Cottage!! Walking around here was really wonderful - meeting friendly people, listening to birds singing, spring flowers and baby sheep!! "

"We've enjoyed a week in this well equipped cottage. The village butcher is a gem (want to take him home) his meals are perfect for weary holidaymakers. Good pub meals at the H Jenkins. Well placed for East and West Dales, perfect base for varied days out. Hope to come again. We'll recommend the cottage. Nice to be back in curd tart country."

"Third visit - we love it!"

"We thoroughly enjoyed a peaceful and relaxing time in the cottage. Weather was just getting cold enough to have a couple of cosy fires! Would definitely recommend Fountains Abbey and Deer Park. Plenty of scenic rambles within the Nidderdale area, so no need to travel too far."

"Cottage the best equipped we've ever stayed in! "

"We had a lovely time here at Alma Cottage, which was very comfortable and well appointed. Daniel enjoyed playing with the toys and splashing around in the bath which was like a paddling pool to him."

"We have had a wonderful relaxing week. The cottage is an absolute dream to come home to after a day out doing the sights. We will definitely be back."

"A very enjoyable week. Certainly one of the best cottages we have had."

"Excellent, peaceful week. Cottage first-class, village a treat. We'll definitely book again"

"Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely and 'snugly' cottage and the various visits we made to some delightful spots were unforgettable"

"A wonderful holiday! Perfect weather. Lots of things to do and places to go. And, the piece de resistance, your beautiful cottage"

"An excellent cottage. Thoroughly enjoyable week, the best s/c accommodation we have ever experienced, wonderful!!! Can't wait to return. P.S. A bathroom fit for royalty!!!"

"Once again a very enjoyable stay, but still so many more things to do, so hopefully we'll be able to come back to this beautiful cottage next year!"

"Lovely cottage - warm and cosy. Surrounding countryside beautiful and village and local shops wonderful."

"A really lovely break in such a beautiful cottage and village. Back next year."

And finally, part of a letter we received from a visitor:

"Just a note to say thankyou and how much we all enjoyed our stay at Alma Cottage last week. Everyone commented on how welcoming the cottage was - as if we'd walked into someone's home to stay, no 'artificial stuffiness' you sometimes get with holiday accommodation. The villagers were also outstanding in their friendliness and approachability - we particularly enjoyed the quiz night in the Henry Jenkins pub - I must estimate that everyone spoke to us and took an interest... I'm sure I will be in touch again and will certainly recommend to friends and family."
