Situated in Wharfedale, the village of Burnsall is set on a bend in the River Wharfe and is perfectly framed by the dramatic backdrop of Burnsall Fell. Full of traditional constructions, the 12th Century church is thought to be the oldest building in the village whilst the school is one of the oldest in the country. Burnsall's most famous feature, however, is probably the stone bridge supported by five arches. With a small shop selling sweets and ice-cream as well as a pub and hotel and a tea-room, the village provides most amenities that visitors will need. Nearby Grassington and Skipton offer a wider selection of shops for anything extra visitors may need. The area is the setting for numerous popular cycling trails and bridleways, making this an excellent holiday destination for walkers and those looking to explore this beautiful region.
Reviews
"This cottage is a little gem, just a few mins walk to the village where there is a very nice pub at the end of the bridge which allows our doggy friends in the bar area. There are some wonderful walks in the area which are all covered by the literature in the cottage. The views are amazing and the cottage is really well equipped and beautifully clean. We had a wonderful holiday and enjoyed some lovely walks"

"Great location, lovely cottage. We got in late on a Friday evening so the tea and biscuits were very welcoming! We needed accommodation for a wedding in nearby villages. My son is 3 so the extra home comforts were the real real for going for a cottage. This was a great find! Cosy, but with more than enough room for a small family. As it was lambing season too we had the added magic of seeing the newborn lambs. This a great place for active breaks or a completely relaxing holiday. "

"It is a very pleasant cottage in a nice countryside.Quiet and peaceful,clean and comfortable. I really liked the wood burner in the lounge and there was plenty of coal and wood to use.The local pub is in walking distance (take a torch with you :) and the food is all right.We haven`t really walked around the village but hiking and walking areas are within driving distance.The best thing about the place was that I instantly felt welcomed and comfortable,the cottage has got a really positive vibe.However the least I liked about the place that within the house there are 5 carved mice hidden and we only found 4!!!We looked everywhere but just could not find the last one.We will have to go back soon to find the the fifth mouse :)"

"Loved the cottage and garden, the view was gorgeous. Excellent walks that were very accessable. Pubs at appletreewick were a great reward after a walk along the river (New Inn especially friendly to humans and dogs). A great relaxing holiday with all amenities to hand"

"The owner called in when we arrived and provided some welcoming biscuits and advice on places in the area.The cottage was very comfy and ideally situated for exploring the area. The village is the quintessential English village-river, bridge, pub, church,shop etc. Will certainly try to go again."

"On arrival at the cottage we knew straight away we were in for a brilliant week. The cottage itself was cosy and beautifully decorated. The finishing touches made it so homely. The owner was welcoming and friendly. The location was perfect with lots of walks only a few miles away, however there was some great walks from the door. What we liked about the cottage was it was within walking distance to the village but far enough away to be peaceful. There was nothing we did not like, only that we had to leave."

Warm and cosy, peaceful and quiet with stunning views of surrounding dales from very window and door.No need to drive anywhere, choose a different walk each day from the cottage door.Rain or shine this is the best place to be!"
