A bit of feedback to the owners. After staying in properties within the same price range as your accommodation its easy to compare what youve got right, and what could be improved upon. Location is good. Only two toilets rolls provided for 4 people. Mismatched kitchen utensils, what was provided seemed more like what you had leftover from your own drawers rather than specifically purchased for your holiday let. No shampooshower gel provided. Even if your guests dont use it, for the price you charge and the customer base youre trying to attract this would go well towards the impression you give to your guests. Check out time is too early. 11am would be more appropriate. Make it clear to your potential guests that your own property is next door to the rental property prior to booking. This can put a lot of people off, but likewise others may find this a positive if they experience issues you are nearby. For the price you charge its really cheeky to ask your guests to strip their own bedding and put the towels into bin bags just to save you or your cleaning team less than 5 minutes. Guests like to leave the property relaxed and with good memories, not leave having to do the basic chores. The hot tub was lovely, but Your instruction book says it automatically switches off at 8pm on one page but 9pm on another page. So its confusing which is correct. Thanks for the bottle of wine. This was a nice welcome. The refrigerated cold plunge pool was ace. The radio in the sauna needs a better Ariel, reception was poor. Also, the lightbulb has gone. Thankyou, we had a lovely time and glad that we came, but dont think we will return because the premium price you charge does not quite match up to what is expected in that price range. Thankyou

We had an amazing stay at Lock View Nordic Spa House in Gargrave. The house was beautiful, spotlessly clean and had everything we needed for a relaxing break away. The hot tub and sauna were definitely a highlight for us and made the stay feel extra special. It was so nice being able to relax in the hot tub and then enjoy the sauna, it really gave the whole place that luxury spa feel. Gargrave itself is lovely and peaceful, and the location was perfect for switching off and enjoying some quality time together. We had a brilliant holiday, came home feeling completely refreshed and would definitely recommend Lock View Nordic Spa House. Wed love to come back again!

Everything there that was promised. We found that the beautiful roll top free standing baths were much to difficult for us to use unfortunately. Nice view lovely area. Strange approach through a housing estate. Had a really lovely stay all told.

Lovely property and location. Enjoyed our stay very much. A couple of good local pubs and excellent chippy. Skipton just down the road or canal a lovely place to visit and lots of food and drinking opportunities. Owner communication was excellent. Would recommend you wont be disappointed.

Had a very enjoyable stay the property is very clean, comfortable & in a lovely location overlooking the canal. The village had everything we needed within a few minutes walk. Highly recommend the Indian restaurant & also great fish & chip shop. We didn't have the best weather, but still enjoyed the hot tub & tow path walks. Recommend a visit to Brimham Rocks a short drive away Thank to the hosts for quick response to a couple of small queries & also appreciate the wine & chocs. We would definitely recommend your property to anyone

The property was brilliant, but would have liked thinner duvets and better pillows. and baskets for soap etc in showers.

The house was perfect for our stay. The rooms are tastefully decorated. The hosts were very helpful and accommodating. The facilities were excellent. Highly recommend.

What an amazing property. Luxury furnishing and fixtures in a wonderful location overlooking the canal from the upstairs windows. Garden is small but secure which was a relief to us as we have a nervous dog. Lovely of the hosts to leave wine, chocolates and milk. There was also tea and coffee, kitchen roll and oil but we took and used our own. Kitchen is well stocked with utensils and pots and pans. Very clean. Hot tub and sauna were a lovely bonus for a dog property. Village is beautiful. Lovely curry at the Indian and a friendly welcome at the Masons Arms across the river. Well worth the extra steps. Large portions of excellent home cooked food. All of the staff were friendly and chatty. A real old fashioned pub. I would highly recommend this property to anyone wanting a central base for exploring the beautiful Dales.

First I have to say we enjoyed our stay at Lock View, the beds are super comfy and the saunahot tubchill tub were a great addition, and the locatoin was really good. A couple of things could have been better, first the directions to the house, great until you get to the culdesac, luckily we'd looked on StreetView and realised we had to cut through the houses, otherwise we wouldn't have seen the little gap! When we arrived we had an issue with the downstairs bathroom toilet, the flush button popped off and needed fixing luckily I have a handy husband!, the handles on the cupboard in that bathroom are very damaged I suspect cleaning has taken the coating off. We weren't sure when the heating was due to come on in the evening, it hadn't come on by 5.30pm so we just advanced on the timer. It would be useful to have more instructions in the welcome pack. But these are only minor issues that could easily be fixed, overally we had a lovely time.

What a beautiful property ! There is nothing not to like .. location, decor, amenities and customer service.. just amazing

Great property and location. Enjoyed the hot tub and chill tub . Sauna didnt get warm enough but personal preference. Very comfy beds, well equipped kitchen. Nice views from lounge. Easy to get to local attractions. Only slight downsides were some greasy trays and bin on arrival, outside lighting not working around parking, mossy entrance slabs slippy in wet and microwave needs replacing. Minor things which didnt reduce our rating.

Lovely property in a good location. Dog walk from the door on the canal towpath. Very clean and well appointed

From the prearrival communication to the friendly welcome from Kyle everything was brilliant. The place was really clean and very comfortable. The facilities were amazing, hot tub, chill tub, sauna, this place has it all. The dog never got his head around the glass floor in the upstairs lounge, even after seven days, tentatively walking around the edge as though he thought he could fall down into the kitchen

Beautiful holiday home with a beautiful view, it had everything you need for your stay would highly recommend it . Beds were very comfortable and bathrooms were great, Hottub and sauna were great though didnt try the the plunge tank too old

One of the best holiday homes we have stayed in. Exceptional comfort and cleanliness, great location and super peaceful.. but near everything you need.

Cottage was very well maintained and had everything we needed. Beds were comfortable and linen of a good quality. Robes were a nice bonus. We made good use of the hot tub, sauna and chill pool. Cottage is in a great location within an easy walk of the village. Had a lovely stay

Beautiful property in lovely location

Beautiful peaceful location. We really enjoyed walking the dog along canal and watching the narrow boats. Lovely chip shop and coop within a few minutes walk. Hot tub and sauna were a huge hit and the chill tub gave us a few laughs!! This house is comfortable and well equipped with everything you need. The glass floor in the living room is a nice feature which the kids enjoyed seeing us in the kitchen. We would definitely stay here again.

A lovely location would recommend

Very good Xmas stay. Clean and tidy accommodation. Loved the hottub and sauna. Good size bedrooms. A little bit more compact than I thought as the main picture is actually 2 properties but plenty big enough for 4 and dog. Good location. Village gas good pubs and excellent fish shop. Would recommend

This was our 2nd stay at this property and it was a pleasure. High standards in every way.

Very nice property well appointed and in a good location. Already re booked for next year!

Had a really good stay at Lock View . Great house to stay in .

We had a lovely week, 2 adults and my daughters 11&13 and our dog. Plenty to do in the area and we loved watching the boats go through the lock! House spotlessly clean and well looked after and we will definitely return. Thank you!

Stayed with another couple, no 5 Lock View was a fabulous cottage with all we could have wanted. A beautiful view from the loungeupstairs bedroom across the canal and rolling countryside, so peaceful. We walked to Skipton along the canal path at a leisurely pace in around 1 hour 40. The taxi back was about 15 though there are also buses and a train service. Gargrave village itself has a lot to offer and we enjoyed our meals at both Bollywood Indian and Mason's Arms, also enjoying drinks in the beer garden at the Old Swan. We hadn't booked to eat at either place and were lucky to be fitted in so would recommend booking to be sure. Our hosts were very responsive an helpful.

A delightful property, with every amenity you could need. It couldn't be cleaner and was very comfortable. We stayed for a week and the hottub and sauna were cleaned during our stay. We were 4 adults and 1 dog. The location is perfect with stunning views over the canal and countryside but a short stroll to the village centre with several pubs, shops and eateries. The only point to note for dog owners is that the garden has no grass, so no wee opportunities in the garden, but with the canal bank just outside its not much of an issue to take your dog out. Our dog loved lying by the Juliet balcony upstairs watching everyone walking along the towpath.

The beds were super comfy , sky tv was a bonus. , the hot tub was fun , the bath with a view was fun . The owners were very responsive and helpful . Downstairs the wi fi and tv reception for ITV were not as good , but that was Fine as my son moved his ps4 upstairs .

Such a lovely place we really enjoyed our stay here and will definitely be returning, a short drive away from Skipton and Grassington the canal is a lovely walk too. Beds were very comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. There are a couple of pubs serving food a short walk into Gargrave.

What a lovely house in a great position

Great location right next to the canal with excellent facilities. Would wholeheartedly recommend this place.

We had a lovely break away and enjoyed the hot tub. Owner was very friendly and only happy to help and lock view is in a beautiful position for canal plenty of nature and boats and village had more than you needed.

What a lovely house in a great position

A lovely property in a beautiful location. We had a fantastic stay and the property provided everything we needed. We definitely made the most of the hot tub, sauna and village pubs. Great location, just under 2hrs walk along the canal into Skipton and with other great walks on your doorstep. We also visited Ingleton Waterfalls Trail, just over half an hours drive away and Malham only 20 minutes drive away. Would recommend The Masons Arms pub for Sunday roast!

Just returned from a 3 night stay at the cottage. We both had a fantastic time , great location , beautiful views. The cottage was very clean, had everything we needed. The hot was fabulous in the snow and added that little bit of luxury to our stay. Gorgeous clean , comfortable cottage , with huge beds , incredable deep baths , all amenities nothing was left out , will definitely be back and will recommend this place to friends

Loved our stay at Lock View. Beautiful house, in an ideal location, that has everything you need for a relaxing few days away. We will definitely be booking up again in the future.

Were a family of 3 2 adults & 1 child, age 10. The location and facilities of this property are just what the Dr ordered!. Weve walked & explored the wider areas and eaten in the village every evening, somewhere different each time and all exceptional glad we found The Masons Arms. The hot tub and sauna were wonderful. The maintenance of the property is generally very good, although theres a few small things that need a bit of attention before they tire further and to ensure the luxurious feel is maintained. Thank you for our stay, we would definitely return.

Fantastic property in a brilliant location. Owners very helpful and friendly. Will definitely be visiting again.

What a lovely stay, the house is fantastic, very clean, it is very well ... What a lovely stay, the house is fantastic, very clean, it is very well equipped, it has a fantastic living room furnished with high end furniture throughout the house, the hot tub is fantastic, we used it every day

I think this may be a policy of Sykes but there were too many 'negatives' in the information book. The notes weren't so much about guests' enjoyment as rules about what you shouldn't do and the leaving arrangements! This was our first booking with Sykes.
