We stayed at Rockwood House for one night and had no problems at all. The room was very pleasant and tastefully decorated and the bathroom facilities were very clean. The breakfast was very good and the owners were chatty and friendly.
The village has two good pubs which are both within walking distance of the Rockwood, and both serve food. The village served as a good base for the Yorkshire Dales. We could find no faults.

The room that was described as "en suite" was actually a double room with the corner partiti oned off - not even enclosed up to the ceiling which contained a tiny wash basin, toilet and shower. The shower cubicle sliding doors didn't open very wide so access was difficult, even for an average sized person. There was no ventilation in the room and the window was locked shut. As I was travelling with a friend, it was very embarrassing,if we needed to use the "facility".

I was also concerned about our safety as there was no fire exit and the window was locked shut., so there was no escape route.

There was no one around the next morning so we couldn't even get any milk for a cup of tea. There wasn't a resident's lounge to sit in, as the lounge was marked private.

On a positive note, the breakfast was very nice.

I got the impression that the owner didn't really want guests in her house and she did not make us feel welcome at all.

We paid £70 for one night and were really glad that we had only booked one night, as we wouldn't have wanted to stay any longer.
