Throstle Nest Farm

This farm is set in a beautiful location near Skipton, although the rolling countryside does not hide the regular trains which run fairly frequently during the week in both directions within view of the property. We were a little miffed on our arrival as one of the owners was busy gardening (admittedly we had arrived before the 4 pm time suggested) and stoically ignored us until we called out! We had a large room, which was well equipped with hairdryer, tea and coffee supplies etc but which showed signs of tiredness. The white bedlinen, although clean was greying and in need of repair in places and the bath towels (also originally white) were somewhat tatty and threadbare. The owners go out of their way to provide DVD's, games and books for guests' use and the lounge area for guests looks very comfortable. The breakfast was tasty and plentiful and was served by helpful, cheerful and accommodating staff. The property has several rooms as well as a small cottage at the side and, as such, would benefit from more parking spaces. There was just about enough space for the number of cars, providing everyone parked sensibly but we still had difficulty shoehorning our car into the one remaining space when we returned mid-evening after a meal in Skipton.

Fantastic lodge, it’s very tastefully decorated with everything you need. Lovely comfortable bed. The views are amazing and the hot tub is the icing on the cake. Communication with the owner was extremely easy. Would definitely recommend it

Clean,lovely room with very comfy bed and pillows. Quiet area with super views.Pleasant owner and staff. Homemade drop scones at breakfast were yummy. Will be staying again.
