“AWFUL.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 September 2010

The double room booked was very basic and horribly decorated. The bed was so lumpy it gave us backache. The en-suite smelled faintly of wee.
At no point during our stay did we feel comfortable or when we mentioned the fact that we were not sleeping well they did not even ask why. The breakfast was ok. The smell of cigarette smoke wafting through the house was poorly masked by room deodorisers and it was horrible. We were with our young son and it really annoyed me that they did not seem to care about the comfort and health of their guests.
The owner stands around gassing about inane topics while you try to eat your breakfast, then again you are eating in their front room so there does not appear to be anywhere for him and his missus to go.
The room got very cold and no extra blankets were available. Our son was so cold we had to put two pairs of pyjamas on him.
I think they put minimal effort into this business and sadly it shows.

“Great Value B&B”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 September 2010

Stayed here with a work colleague while working in Skipton. Very homely and intermit guest house not far from the town centre. Rooms are basic, clean and have everything you need for a short stay.
Only down side is the limited parking in the area and close proximity to the busy main road, but this didn't cause any problems during the stay.
Great Value for money!

“Great value & very frendly”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 September 2010

Arrived at 6.00pm rather wet & muddy after a 70 mile bike ride along the Leeds & Liverpool canal. Bike stored safely in yard and room spacious wth en sute. Breakfast was superb and was my way by nine next morning. Owners very particular about keeping the room clean - rightly so, as I was in a bit of a state, mud wise! Very friendly and I would definately go back again. Thanks for all your help. Got to Leeds at 2.00pm in glorious sunshine!

“Website Misleading”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 September 2009

Stayed at Cravendale on a short walking break with some friends. The B&B website said all rooms were en-suite. This was not the case as the twin room (room 2) has only a sink. Also this room faces on to the main road and was very noisy.

The owner smokes in the back yard and smoke wafts throughout the house to the point that now back home I can smell cigarette smoke on my clothes.

Breakfast was OK as was the location.

If I went back to Skipton I would book somewhere else.

“Charming B&B, Very good value for money”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 September 2008

Just came back from a short break spent at Cravendal Guest house, and what a little gem that is!!!!!
Room was spotless, breakfast was divine and the owner was really nice and friendly.
We will use again as we have enoyed our stay very much and fell in love with Skipton.
Thank you very much for such a lovely stay!
