Herriots House Reviews

We had a great time celebrating in a great property which suited all our needs loved the outdoor seating area and hot tub and we all agreed we felt relaxed and chilled even with all the drink consumed !
Barbara
This was our second stay at Herriots House. It was perfect for our family of eleven as each bedroom has its own ensuite. We particularly love the outside area of this property with its outdoor heaters enabling us to stay outside for prolonged periods. The house is so close to the local supermarkets that we do not need to bring loads of supplies with us. It is also a very pleasant, short walk into Skipton town. This year was even better than last year as we had lovely sunny weather all week.
What a beautiful house, located within minutes of Skipton town, the Liverpool and Leeds canal and much more. We found the house beautifully decorated, everywhere was clean, warm and cosy. It had plenty of space for the girly 60th Birthday weekend. A hot tub outside with patio area to eat and dine was a great addition. The kitchen had everything we needed, with an added welcome basket which was lovely,
An absolutely lovely place, furnished to the highest spec and comfort. We will be back next year!

This was the ideal property for us, 5 adults and 4 older teenagers although it has a quirky layout. The situation is ideal, close to town, restaurants and railway station. There were also pleasant walks in the park and along the canal. We loved the hot tub and who would have thought we would be sitting outside in December enjoying Christmas Drinks. We had a meal at the Rhubarb restaurant next door and thoroughly enjoyed it. Altogether a very successful experience.
Our Herriots House review: The property was lovely however we felt it would have benefitted from a lounge area inside the main house. Having said that we enjoyed our stay and the staff at the hotel were very helpful with dealing with a couple of issues. The property is in an excellent location being opposite train station and shops and only a few minutes walk along either the road or the canal into the town centre.
Lovely accommodation. Very clean, comfortable, warm and well equipped. The only thing missing were some beer glasses we had a keg of my husband's home brew. The fact that only one dishwasher was working was also slightly inconvenient as there were 12 of us, although that meant plenty of hands to help with the washing up. The generous welcome hamper was a nice surprise and much appreciated. The outdoor heated seating area and hot tub were fantastic and thoroughly enjoyed by all. The location is great, very handy for local amenities and canal walks. The Rhubarb restaurant at Herriots Hotel next door does an excellent brunch. All in all Herriots House was ideal for our family weekend celebrating an 80th birthday.
The property was excellent and in a great location to town, train station, shops and pubs. We did have a problem with the electric overloading so tripping when a few electrical appliances were on. Great place to stay will definitely be back and sincerely will recommend
Barbara
A wonderful house in a great location, only a 10 minute stroll into Skipton and less than 5 minutes to the nearest supermarket. All five bedrooms had an ensuite which was brilliant. The outdoor space with the hot tub was a great hit, especially with our teenager grandchildren. My only small criticism would be to ge5 rid of the swing seat in the downstairs living area and replace it with a more comfortable settee. To accommodate more people. There were more settees upstairs but that had no window and. was a bit dark, this was also commandeered by the teenagers. All in all, the week was a great success and enjoyed by all 11 members of our family.
