Craven House Reviews

Clean and well maintained accommodation in a nice town, with in reach of beautiful walking paths and hikes. All members of the party really enjoyed the stay
We had a wonderful stay here for our good friends Hen Do. Really close to the town centre & super market comfortable, clean, spacious and had everything you could possibly need! Thank you for a great place for us to make great memories xx
Plenty of space in property for our group of 13. Parking near property a bit tricky at times. Road noisy at nighttime when had to leave windows open due to the heatwave. Doors in kitchen tricky to close but apart from that a great place to stay in a lovely town and plenty of things to do nearby.
Richard
The property is in a great location in the heart of Skipton. The house is warm with a constant supply of hot water. The kitchen is very well equipped with cooking utensils and pots and pans. The sitting room is cosy and a good size for a party of 10 to 12. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Brilliant ! Ideal for our group of 121, plenty of space, great dining room where we could all eat and chat, good combination of double and twin bedrooms. Tesco literally round the corner, only a short walk to town & canal. Parking was fine, price was good , kitchen and lounge area plenty big enough Ideal
Andrea
The house was warm and comfortable with just about everything we needed. We had a couple of minor issues, which we dealt with quickly. Skipton itself is lovely, and we want to go back to the area again, as there is so much more to see.
Melanie
Beautiful well equipped house, very spacious and great location. We had a fabulous weekend and would love to return in the summer to take advantage of the cute outdoor space and massive bbq . Highly recommended
Craven House is ideally situated about 4 minutes walk from the town centre. Also easy walking distance to the station. A big Tesco is just round the corner! We couldn't always park in front of the house, but there was enough parking in nearby roads for our 3 cars. There are a lot of stairs up to the front door and to each floor. The owner is very friendly and helpful. The lounge has lovely comfortable sofas, and the dining room is perfect for a big party. The little ones loved the basement games room. We had a wonderful family holiday with 12 of us.
Elizabeth
This is a fantastic house for a big group. The living room, dining room and kitchen are very spacious. There were plenty of bathrooms and the house was very clean. It is only a few minutes walk in to Skipton. We would definitely visit again.
Sylvia
Lovely holiday home for a family get together there was 10 of us ages 4 to 82 and had a brilliant time the house was big and clean all the rooms were very nicely furnished. Lots to do in Skipton and places near by.would certainly recommend .
Shirley
Dont get me wrong, the house is lovely however, there are some things which require attention. There are 2 fridges, both of which have parts which are broken, the water cooler on the large fridgefreezer doesnt work thank goodness because the bottled water we added had black particles floating in it from the mechanism. There were crumbs on the toaster! The beds were really comfortable and the location is ideal. You just need to pay more attention to detail. The grandchildren found a dvd they wanted to watch but the case was empty. Small things, but important nevertheless.
Kirsty
Perfect property for our weekend away. We were 3 families so the number of bathrooms was particularly useful! Lots of space, handy location for the centre of Skipton and great to be so close to the supermarket. Wouldn't hesitate to come back!
Christine
Lovely house. Lots of cutlery, crockery to accommodate large group. All amenities worked well. Had a lovely time
Great house which was perfect for our large family gathering for Christmas. Craven House is extremely well equipped, warm and comfortable. It had been nicely decorated for Christmas and contact with the owner was really good beforehand. Its a short walk into Skipton either along the canal or on various roads. Its is on a busy main road so wouldnt work for people who like rural getaways. Parking outside wasnt always possible but theres lots of other roads nearby to park on.
Joanne
We had a fantastic stay at Craven house for our daughters wedding. The house was absolutely perfect for a large family with everything you could want and loads of space for everyone. The bedrooms are a good size and the fact that there are plenty of bathrooms worked perfectly for us. The large dining room was great for a family meal the night before the wedding and then perfect for the bride and bridesmaids to get ready in the morning. The brides prewedding photos were beautiful due to the original character of the house. There is plenty of parking nearby and I cant recommend this property enough if you are looking for somewhere for a large group, walking distance into Skipton and a short drive to the lovely countryside.
Very enjoyable stay, we were a party of 12, 3 generations, grandparents, children and grandchildren. Only downside is no guarantee of finding a parking place outside or close to the property. Apart from that we would go again.
Very clean, had everything we needed and more. Thanks for our stay
This was our second visit to Craven House. It was just as we remembered. The house is lovely, spacious and very characterful, it is however a little tired, redecoration and some general maintaining of the back yard required. On a positive note, the size of the house and distance from the town centre is fantastic. Kitchen is very well equipped, beds comfortable and lots of wcbathrooms. Plenty of room for large groups of friends or family
Really lovely spacious and well equipped house with original features. Perfect location close to the centre of Skipton with Tesco a 2 min walk away and loads of good pubs and the castle nearby a wonderfully set up and equipped house in a fantastic location right between a supermarket and the pub filled town centre Fantastic house, clean & well equipped, in a great location, comfy beds, plenty of seating and a kitchen to make most cooks jealous! A lovely, cosy house perfect for groups looking for sociable spaces. Good layout and well equipped. Easy walking distance to town and very close to supermarket. Lots of stepsstairs and no designated parking so might not be suitable for anyone with reduced mobility but as long as that's not an issue, I would definitely recommend this house.
Jackie
Fabulous house for a family get together with everything you could need.
Jacqui
Property ideally place to walk into Skipton. very spacious property. It was warm, clean well equipped and we enjoyed our stay and will use it again
Great place I have stayed there twice and the house is ideally for a big group and so near the town.
A great property for a large family get together!
Tamsin
A good property with plenty of space for everyone. Perfectly convenient to get around Skipton easily. Clean and tidy with plenty of equipment in the kitchen. We enjoyed the courtyard garden. It is a little tired and there is a bit of road noise but absolutely nothing to complain about.
A great holiday property for a large group, a large kitchen and dining room, lots of cutlery etc good size bedrooms and plenty of bathrooms facilities, we had a great time. WiFi wasnt available in all rooms which was a disappointment for the youngsters. Skipton is central in the Dales we got out and about every day, even though the weather wasnt completely on our side
3rd time at Craven House. As always suberb house,great facilities.Location ideal for our golfing week.Would highly recommend
Geraldine
Beautiful house, very spacious and well maintained. Very well equipped with everything you need. You should mention its on a busy road, so difficult to park.
Everything was as it said. This is a Town House so there is traffic, outside space at a premium and the stairs are steep. This did not detract from our enjoyment of the holiday. Our group of 11 walkers were happy with the central location near rail and bus station. The showersbaths excellent. The aga certainly works! The dining room was large enough for us all to sit for breakfastdinner.
Elizabeth Eley
Loverly and handy place to stay Well quipped Great place for a family get together
Really enjoyed our stay in Skipton. The situation of the property gave us access to many different dales which was great as we were out walking every day. The property was really spacious and plenty of baths and showers. Great to have so much china and cutlery.
Great size property, lovely and warm and so convenient for the town centre. We were a group of 10 female friends so the number of bathroomsen suites was really good for us. We all loved it so much that one of our party is already planning another trip with her large family. Well definitely be back, thanks
Geoffrey
We had a lovely week staying at Craven House. Its a large property with plenty of bathrooms for a large party and with all the facilities we needed. Within easy walking distance of Skipton town centre and a large supermarket. Not far from the rail and bus stations for exploring the area if you wanted to leave the car behind. Free parking in the road, if you can find a space! A great family gathering.
Fantastic 4 night stay over Christmas 24th 28th December. Very comfortable and accommodated the 11 family members well. Property is well located with Tesco just round the corner and Skipton town centre a mere 10 min walk away. Well recommended.
Jessica
Fantastic stay, lovely and roomy, warm and comfy, all amenities we needed.
This is the second stay at this amazing house. A total of 10 family members plus Louie the dog . Very spacious home with every facility you need . This house is very warm and inviting plus the location is fantastic. We all had such a wonderful long weekend again . Thank you
Joanne
Facilities were good. House a little tired and one of the chairs in the kitchen was broken the wooden slats came out of the top when we moved the chair out to sit on it. Well stocked with glasses, cutlery, cleaning stuff etc etc
Perfect house for a large number especially if the party includes children.
A group of friends couples ans singles stayed for a week and we all enjoyed our stay. The house is clean, well equipped, comfortable and spacious. Plenty of space outside in the courtyard too for 9 of us to sit out on BBQ night. Conveniently located with supermarkets a few minutes walk, less than 10 mins walk to Skipton centre for shops and a good choice of pubs and restaurants and 10 mins walk to the railway station. A couple of prearrival queries were answered promptly by the owner.
Catriona
We had a great week. Three generations of our family met up and the house was perfect. We had space to gather together, but also room to breathe! Really good location just a few minutes to town and two minutes from supermarkets. My kids loved the Aga. We all loved being able to eat together at the long dining table and still have elbow room. The patio garden is a suntrap in the afternoon and was heavily used by us. We were all delighted with our trip and wished we had booked for longer.
Elaine
Wow. This house is absolutely beautiful and spotlessly clean. It has so much space and everything is of such a high standard. The original features of the house really add to the character and so welcoming. 12 of my family met for a weekend and everyone loved it. Not a single complaint. We arrived with five cars and all got parked with no problem. The owner called me and nothing was a problem, they even pulled the very large barbecue out for us to use which we did. Location is perfect for town and for exploring the local areas. We will definitely come back again.
