Cosy cottage with stunning views
This was our second visit to this lovely cottage and it won't be our last. Very cosy clean cottage with everything you need. The garden is beautiful with great views of the dales. Very handy for the street head Inn pub who does great food . Nice walks straight from the door in the surrounding hills and into west burton. Great communication with our host Phil who made sure we had all the information we needed for our stay which was very helpful. We will be back

Restful and relaxing weekend away
We had a wonderful break at Westbrook House. The cottage worked really well for us and views both from the back and front of the house were stunning. There is plenty to do and walks directly from the house. Farm shops and tearooms and little towns to explore as well as hills to climb are in abundance. There is a local pub a short walk away. We particularly enjoyed the garden and listening to the birds. The house was well equipped and Phil provided all the information we needed for a great stay. Would have just liked to have stayed longer!

Excellent Dales Cottage
If you like old buildings, well maintained and fitted with a smart hotel stylish bathroom, excellent view over the dale, this is the one. It is in the hamlet of Newbiggin on a quiet road amongst other attractive cottages. Loads of space for 2, 4 would be fine but I think 6 adults would rather cosy in the lounge and with just one loo & bathroom, albeit a very smart one.

A very special place to stay
We had a wonderful few days at Westbrook House. The view is amazing and the cottage is really well kitted out with everything you could possibly need. The bathroom and kitchen are new and the whole layout of the cottage is well thought through. The garden is well maintained with loads of birdlife. The house is in a lovely part of the Dales - centrally located but just away from the busier areas. West Burton, the nearby village has a shop selling local cheeses. There are plenty of pubs nearby that we would have tried if we had stayed longer, but it was just lovely to sit in the garden with a cup of tea or glass of wine. There are several beautiful walks from the doorstep. We very much hope to return soon.

Beautiful cottage and superb location
Absolutely loved our stay. Cottage very cosy and very well equipped and clean. Excellent location. Only down side was it did not have a downstairs toilet so a queue sometimes with 4 adults staying there. The cottage does have a storage area under stairs with a window which could be utilised for this if owner was inclined to convert. Owner was really helpful - excellent communication by email and telephone. Will definitely stay again!

Lovely home in the Dales
We stayed here for Christmas and the home was perfect for what we needed. All the rooms are bigger than expected and the bathroom is really nice. Everything was clean throughout and the plentiful supply of wood for the fire was great over the Christmas break. We would certainly stay again and recommend to others.

From the very first contact from Phil to the minute we left everything was perfect. Excellent communications, great instructions for check in, stunning location but wow oh wow... the cottage was the best we have stayed in. If it was for sale I'd buy it in a heart beat. Defo we will book it again. Thanks for everything Phil.

Lovely cosy cottage
Excellent communication from Phil before, during and after our stay. Really made us feel welcome. Great location for accessing the Yorkshire Dales. There was a nearby pub within walking distance and it was great to visit Aysgarth Falls and Malham. A cosy cottage which was well equipped. Would highly recommend.

Ideal location for an overdue getaway
We very much enjoyed our stay at Westbrook House. It was both spacious and cosy, and very well-equipped. Phil was a thoughtful and attentive host, checking in on us on a day when the weather was particularly bad. The self-service check-in and check-out processes were smooth and straightforward. The Internet connection is excellent, and the stove in the lounge works really well. It's particularly pleasing that the fuel for the stove is included. The location is perfect - extremely quiet and with excellent views across Bishopdale from the back of the house. The garden is lovely, although we didn't spend a great deal of time in it. We very much enjoyed watching the birds using the bird feeder(s) by the lounge window. The Ordnance Survey map centred on the house was a nice touch. We did several good walks from the house leading to good views of neighbouring dales.

Super long weekend in this beautifully renovated cottage. Clean, comfortable and well equipped, amazing bath tub (named Mr Boaty by our boys so they could be floaty in the boaty). We loved the garden and the stream just down the lane. And we enjoyed an evening at the pub a few minutes walk away. Great access to kettlewell, leyburn, aysgarth etc. Would definitely stay again.

Gorgeous cottage
Amazing cottage, completely faultless. Everything was perfect, the rooms are spotlessly clean. The views are amazing at the back, even from the loo!! We struggled to leave this place, can't recommend it enough. Short walk to a decent pub if you don't fancy cooking. Plenty to see around the area, we walked around the falls and up to Castle Bolton and back, took in the cheese in Wensleydale and had some short walks to nearby villages. Plenty of pub stops on the way. Locals were very friendly. Great communication from owner.

Spent a short break here and had a great time. Plenty of space for the 4 of us and bedrooms were very comfortable. Lovely walks from the door and local pub was a short stroll away. The area was beautiful in February, so imagine it would be stunning in spring and summer! Would definitely recommend staying here for a relaxing break away from it all.
