Throstle Nest Farm

Lovely location stunning views car parking bit small nice breakfast overall would recommend

Arrived to check in and nobody around. Rang doorbell twice, no answer so went to sit in car. Host arrived tenminutes later in obvious rush. Quickly took us into vestibule which has bags of laundry around. Rushed us through keypad codes etc, no pleasantries such as "how was your journey" or "would you like a cup of tea". Shown to room and she left quickly (obviously to see to something else). Ensuite smelt of urine as was not cleaned properly. Thick of dust on headboards. Room grubby overall. This was unacceptable to us and a joint decision to leave and not stay. We located the owner to inform her of our decision and she insisted we show her. She agreed about dust on headboards but toilet, by saying they were "busy" On hindsight we regret paying £125 for that night we should have left without paying anything, it ruined our holiday!!

House keeping in dire need or overall. When arriving at your destination the first thing you usually do is make a drink. Well that was not easy when there were no tea bags in the room and the cups were disgusting (see pics). There was no one about to ask for tea bags but we found some in the breakfast room. The TV was so small that you needed glasses to fine it let alone watch it. Its such a shame because the b&b is in a lovely quiet spot with beautiful views especially in the breakfast room. Breakfast was fine and freshly cooked. It seemed that attention to detail has been overlooked and we will not be returning!

Booked via Airbnb Stunning location, but the lodge was not up to standard, especially for the price. We arrived to find dirty dishes in the dishwasher, a cloudy hot tub full of insects, and bird mess all over the decking and outdoor furniture. Inside, it felt neglected — dead flies in the light fittings, a loose and unstable oven, and a general need for a deep clean. We appreciated that the high chair and cot were brought promptly when we asked, but overall the lodge was poorly maintained. We raised these issues directly with the host, but our request for a partial refund was refused, which added to our disappointment.

The Throstles nest is a nice quiet peaceful escape where you can relax and feel safe. The farm is located in beautiful countryside with outstanding views.Margret and her family are very welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. Breakfasts are excellent and made with good quality local produce. The farm is literally two miles from the centre of Skipton. Hope to return soon!

Remote location, nice property, long steep entrance drive. Hosts kindly laid on early breakfast as I was departing before regular breakfast time.
