We loved this cottage, especially if you want a bit of seclusion away from the hubbub of a town or village with pubs, shops, schools etc. This is a real getaway to relax and unwind in very comfy surroundings. It is perhaps a misdemeanor to write an excellent review because everyone will want to go and I won't get another look in!!. The wildlife is great for photography as the bird table is right outside the kitchen window, with blue,great,coal tits, Greater spotted woodpecker, nuthatch, tree creeper, thrush, chaffinch, house Martins,bats,rabbits crows, heron. However, the red squirrel was sadly elusive this week. The dales way is right on the doorstep so walks from the house are easy to join. The George Inn at hubberholme is either a good round walk of circa 8-10 miles or 4 to the pub and get someone to pick you up. The food is great at the George and you are made very welcome. The owners of East House Farm have worked hard to make it a home from home and you will benefit from all they have achieved. Providing you understand the country ways and lifestyle. We really enjoyed our stay here and hope to return again.

If you want to get away from it all, this is the perfect getaway. Warm, welcoming and cosy. Clean and well equipped. Joe and Di have thought of everything. We stayed in December and were blessed with snow. This was our second stay.

This would have scored all 10's but there are no local amenities but we knew this ahead of our stay and made sure we had enough provisions for the duration of our stay. The location is superb, the cottage excellent with plenty of room for six adults. There was no mains water available when we stayed due to problems with the supply however this was not an issue as plenty of bottled water provided. There is plenty of scope for walking which is why we booked this cottage. We will be returning next year.

Fabulous remote location which allows endless trips out onto the hills without moving car. Clean, well maintained and hot boot room for drying all the wet walking gear, this is Yorkshire... To wake up and look out on the sheep and the beck and the rusty autumnal colouring was amazing.

The cottage is beautiful, set in a hamlet and so peaceful. Welcome gifts on arrival even for the dog. Well thought out , even down to emergency supplies in case of power cut. We didn't encounter this but it would have only made the cottage cosier.

A beautiful place to get away from it all. The house is perfect. The walking is amazing the local spar shop has everything you need to self cater and there are various farm shops. You don't know peace and quite until You have been here. Loved our short 4 day break.

A cosy, interesting cottage in a beautiful situation.

We had a lovely stay at East House Farm in August, in spite of torrential rain for much of the week. It's a very comfortable place with everything thought of, a great fire, a wonderful collection of books and games, lots of space. The surroundings are amazing as it's in the most beautiful valley, with a rushing river nearby. Great for walking straight from the door - high level or low. Real peace. "Local amenities" seems an inappropriate question for this property as it's a long way from any shops and that's its magic. Hawes (7 miles away) is the perfect place to stock up and has lots of local shops, a market, museum etc. We stayed here with 2 children and 2 grandparents and everyone loved it. (Note that it's in a collection of houses - they are close but it still felt private)
