My wife & I visited for a couple of days late April & returned for a further couple of "unscheduled" days mid-May following a fortnights wandering in the North East & the Dales. Our first vist was excellent so again basing ourselves in this immaculate establishment was a simple choice. We were in one of the main house bedrooms, not... More

Lovely location and picture postcard house. The Alpacas were a surprise. The owners have extensively remodelled the garden since these photos were uploaded. Breakfast at the time you specify and delicious. More

Firstly may I say that I haven't been made to feel as welcome in any establishment as we were here. It was so nice to be greeted by friendly, laid-back people. Sarah & Stewart Wilson were the perfect hosts! We stayed at Dukes Place with quite a few members of my family as my niece was getting married in Bishop... More

Stayed at this excellent B and B over last weekend; what a treat. The room was large, spotless and comfortable. A comprehensive and wholesome breakfast, well cooked and presented. They even have alpacas! They also do self-catering. (the owners not the alpacas) The owners Stuart and Sarah are the perfect hosts full of local knowledge. You are within walking distance... More

We had a wonderful weekend in Yorkshire. We were warmly welcomed, given a pot of tea and biscuits in our room which was perfect after a 5 hour journey. The accommodation was excellent - we had the best nights sleep we'd had in ages - must have been the fresh country air! Breakfast was amazing - nothing was too much... More

We have just come back from a great weekend break, made perfect by Sarah at Dukes Place. Nothing was too much trouble- from fresh milk to go with the Decaf tea in our bedroom, to the best cooked breakfast we have had in ages, set up in the living room, so that we and our friends could have breakfast on...

Our 5 day stay was fantastic. The new owners had been in charge only 3 weeks when we arrived, they made us and our 3 year old daughter feel so very welcome. Anyone would do well to entrust their holiday with this husband and wife team who have clearly devoted their life to looking after others. More

This is a country house B&B. We travelled in a family group of 5 adults and three small children. Some were outside the main house in a chalet. My wife and I were in the main house. We checked into a comfortable double room, made ourselves at home and went out for the afternoon. When we returned our bags and... More
