Wonderful break away in the Yorkshire Dales. The cottage was well equipped with everything you could need; information on the cottage and the surrounding area, we found information on the red squirrels and a driving tour of the Dales that we hadn’t previously thought about. The cottage itself was warm and cozy, easy to find and plenty of parking space

Wonderful relaxing week spent at Greystones Cottage.
Wonderful relaxing week spent at Greystones Cottage. Stunning location and, although it's situated close to a road, it's very quiet and didn't disturb us at all.The cottage clean and well equipped. We would definitely stay again.

We have stayed at Greystones several times and it never disappoints. A very clean and comfortable cottage and well equipped with everything you need.
Nice, spacious house (we were with two) in a great environment.
Nice, spacious house (we were with two) in a great environment. It was a bit difficult to find the house, the googlemaps link leads you to the wrong house.
We spent the first 25 minutes trying to make cupboard space for our food as the cupboards were overfilled with too much stuff. The 3x plastic tin openers were a waste of time as we struggled to open a tin of tuna. There is no WiFi witch was not highlighted. We had problems with the key safe as it was sticking and also would not lock again easily. The entrance gate to driveway is on a dangerous tight blind bend where traffic appears at speed and my wife had to stand on opposite side of road in the rain to direct me out. The cottage is next to a farm who have about 20 dogs which yap a lot in the early morning. Other than that, we had a nice time.

A fantastic and cosy little cottage.
A fantastic and cosy little cottage. It is a perfect location for exploring the dales and conveniently situated not too far from Hawes. We found the kitchen very well equipped so we didn't need to bring as many utensils as we did. We had a wonderful time.

Greystones is a lovely cottage from which to explore the Dales.
Greystones is a lovely cottage from which to explore the Dales. It was well-equipped and comfortable. The drive is a challenge to find the first time but it's easy to turn the car so that you don't have to reverse out. A great place to stay for a completely relaxing week!

Very clean well stocked good location I found bed mattress uncomfortable and parking to be troublesome Especially if you are on your own as you are coming out next to blind bend I suggest a mirror on the opposite side of the road so you can see traffic would be very helpful

Great wee gem, a couple of things in visitor folder could do with updating.
Great wee gem, a couple of things in visitor folder could do with updating. No real amenities in the local area but you know that going in so not for someone who wants shops, pubs and restaurants within a couple of minutes walk (we didn't).
