    “Badgers is a lovely cottage that I'd easily recommend were it not for a few maintenance issues.”

    Loose tap fixture, very loose toilet seat, bulbs gone, TV legs broken, broken velux blind in attic room. I contacted Skyes to let them know for fear of being charged for damages. The owners did fix the lose tap quickly but it's a shame, neither the cleaner or owner hadn't addressed the maintenance issues before our arrival. The cottage was lovely, comfortable and amenities were decent. The oven wasn't the easiest to figure out despite mfr instruction book. A dummy guide in guest book ...

    Loose tap fixture, very loose toilet seat, bulbs gone, TV legs broken, broken velux blind in attic room. I contacted Skyes to let them know for fear of being charged for damages. The owners did fix the lose tap quickly but it's a shame, neither the cleaner or owner hadn't addressed the maintenance issues before our arrival. The cottage was lovely, comfortable and amenities were decent. The oven wasn't the easiest to figure out despite mfr instruction book. A dummy guide in guest book would've been useful. A bin in 2nd floor bedroom would've been handy and a privacy blind in the shower/bathroom. Parking was hit n miss whether you could park outside the cottage but wasn't an issue, great location, easy to walk into village and an 8min walk to the Spar for groceries. Pubs were nearer and decent. Decoration was lovely, nice touches, very modern. This could be a very highly recommended.

About the location

SEDBERGH

Kendal 11.5 miles; Kirkby Lonsdale 11.8 miles, Hawes 15.8 miles.

The attractive old market town of Sedbergh (pronounced Sed-Ber), with its old-world atmosphere, is not only set in the magnificent western dales of the Yorkshire Dales National Park but is also close to the rugged eastern fells of the Lake District. The town, with its narrow streets, little shops, traditional pubs, famous school dating back to 1525 and its 12th century church, has been a thriving community for hundreds of years, with a market dating from the 13th Century. Leading from Sedbergh is Dentdale, the jewel of the Yorkshire Dales with its rolling hills and dry-stone walls, stretching 14 miles from the windswept moors below Whernside to the confluence of the Rivers Dee and Rawthey. At the centre of the dale is Dent, with its cobbled streets, which has existed since Norman times and nearby Dent railway station is on the renowned Settle-Carlisle railway line. There are three golf courses nearby, as well as tennis, riding, and fishing, and the area is a paradise for walkers, ramblers, runners, and cyclists. This, together with the tranquillity of the surrounding valleys, the two National Parks and it being England's book town, makes an ideal year-round holiday destination.
