We thoroughly enjoyed our wonderful stay. The wedding went very well,rain cleared at 4pm and the Dales looked beautiful in the evening sun. The house was great, we had everything we could think of. All 10 adults and the two wee girls fitted in well and it was lovely to have all our family with us for some of the following week. We visited so many beautiful little villages, seaside resorts and I even went swimming in the breakers at Saltburn by the sea. When we were sitting on the decking we saw a 'tornado' - a funnel cloud which lasted for 30 mins or so - very exciting!

Long Weekend : 7th - 10th Aug

Review Submitted: August 19, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
This house is massive. It's hard to believe when looking at the pictures on the website but out party consisted of 6 adults and 6 children and at NO time did I feel as though we were on top of each other. All of the rooms are really spacious and the Garden was great for the both kids activities and adult relaxation, not at the same time though.

The property was really clean and well maintained, the facilities were excellent with large plasma tv's in all communal rooms. I would have no hesitation recommending this property to either families with young children or groups of adults. My party had a really good time and will be looking to book again for next year.

An excellent large property in a lovely location

Review Submitted: May 16, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
We booked Brackenedge on very short notice, after we were let down by another property owner, but had a lovely stay. We were a large party (six adults and three children), but at no point did we feel crowded or uncomfortable.

The railway station, from which you can get to Whitby, is just a short walk away and the National Moors Centre is well worth a visit.

You take your chances with the weather in this part of the world, but the real fire makes this house a warm sanctuary on cold or wet evenings.

What a lovely stay

Review Submitted: April 19, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
I think we were the first family to stay at this cottage. It is absolutely huge! so much space, made it very easy staying with other couples & their children. All very clean, nice linen etc., full country experience staying there with the fires and everything. Village is lovely, good pubs, and lots to do in local area. Whitby and Saltburn both very nice and easy to drive there for the day. Would definitely recommend this cottage.
