The spacious sitting room with lovely beams and a cosy woodburning stove is a delightful space to relax and unwind, and admire the views through the feature window across the outskirts of Grassington and to the hills beyond. Upstairs, there is a large master bedroom with super king-size bed, a double room and a single, all offering good views across the village and surrounding countryside. A wonderful base, this Grassington cottage is just the place for a family or couples to enjoy this beautiful part of the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

Reviews

It felt like a home from home; very comfortable and warm in the unexpected snow and hail! It had good attention to detail and a lovely design. In a great location, right on the Dales Way and close to the village. There were lovely views.

Best cottage we have ever stayed in - this was our third visit.

Rated by Mr Lambert reviewed on 22nd March 2016

Loved this property - it was beautifully presented with a wonderful fire, and everything you could want and more.

Rated by Ms Lynch reviewed on 16th February 2016

A nice quiet cottage just a couple of minutes from the village. It was a good idea to have WiFi, this came in very handy as mobile reception was poor. The views from the cottage were fantastic, and there was a good bus service if you wanted to see around the area without driving.

Lovely walks, lovely area and a beautiful cottage to relax in.

I just want to say how fantastic the cottage is and how spotlessly clean everything was. We will certainly stay again in the future.

Rated by Lempereur reviewed on 10th December 2014

Really enjoyed our stay, the furnishings were first class, there was everything you could want in the cottage and it was very central. A very warm, comfortable cottage. Would certainly recommend The Shippon to family and friends.

The cottage was very comfortable and situated in a good position for local amenities.

Rated by Mr Mackenzie reviewed on 11th October 2014

It was a beautifully appointed cottage with amazing views over Grassington and beyond. The fixtures and fittings were very good quality and the duvet on our bed was filled with duck down and very cosy. Everywhere was spotless and well-maintained with beautiful curtains in every room. It was easy walking district to the shops and restaurants in Grassington so no need to use the car.

Rated by Mr Parmenter reviewed on 13th September 2014

A beautiful cottage in a lovely setting. It was very peaceful and had great walks from the cottage.

Rated by Mrs Smith reviewed on 12th September 2014

The location of the property was great, being just on the edge of Grassington, so peaceful but with access to the pubs and cafés in the village. The views were fantastic and the property was as described. The property was nicely decorated and well-equipped, with everything we expected and needed.
