Beautiful, spacious cottage! It was very warm and the beds were comfy. The garden was also lovely. We really enjoyed joyed our stay here. The location was perfect- a lovely village next to a nice pub and only 10 minutes from Harrogate and Knaresborough.

Unfortunately there is quite a significant damp problem in the cottage which is a health risk, particularly for us as I'm pregnant and have a young toddler. Thankfully, I brought my inhaler. The cottage was very clean in the main areas but there were some forgotten areas eg. Next to the beds, under bedside tables, in draws etc (all the places my toddler likes to explore) that had huge clumps of dust and cobwebs.

Breakfast was not provided but not expected. The location was very good in a very pleasant village and a garden with superb views over the countryside. Nicely located for access to a local inn with good food.

The ensuite walk in shower was unsafe, in that there was no shower mat and no grab handles. As the floor of the shower is perfectly smooth it was slippery when in use. Particularly so for older people. No shelving or racks to place soap and shampoo on, therefore it was necessary to put these on the floor and bend to access them. This also applied to the bathroom used by the adjacent bedroom.
Furnishing, particularly the chairs in the dining room. The tub chairs required refurbishment and the dining chairs all required repair to the seats.
It was frustrating to receive so much contact from the hosts via email and text. Hoping we were enjoying our stay and veiled threats about what must and must not be done.

This idyllic cottage set on the edge of a really pretty village with a good pub was a perfect location for us even though we were working in Harrogate every day.
The house is lovely with a beautiful interior and a really sweet well maintained garden.
There is off street parking and easy access and everything that you could need is provided in this adorable cottage.
There is a lovely pub just up the road and a short drive to many local attractions. Longing to return!

A lovely cottage, with a beautiful garden. Kitchen was very well equipped with everything you could need. Sofas were comfy and the beds were comfortable. Great bathroom/shower rooms. We had great weather so no need for heating. Soft furnishings were perfect. The village was lovely and the pub food was lovely. Cotton bedding and fluffy pillows.

Beautiful well furnished cottage with lovely outlooks. Good pub close by.

The cottage ‘guidebook’ had to be downloaded and was incomplete. No information about appliances, heating controls or the local area. There was no information book in the cottage.

A beautiful cottage. The garden was a great bonus. Full of character but with excellent facilities and modern bathrooms. We loved Kirkby Overblow and the food in the pub.

Tithe is a beautiful cottage in the Majestic Village of Kirkby Overblow. This is one of my favourite locations in Yorkshire, a stunning village in close proximity to the magnificent Harrogate and not far from Leeds or York. You have the Dales on your doorstep not to mention the views of wonderful fields. The cottage is lovely and cosy, tastefully furnished and very comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay in this lovely cottage and would happily go back.

Aside from the chilly arrival (very cold evening and the cottage is heated with electric heaters that you need to turn on when you arrive) everything was lovely. Very comfy beds and modern bathrooms. Tip…. Take a pint of milk as there’s no shop in the village.

We had such a wonderful stay in Kirkby Overblow. I knew the village well anyway but was blown away by how wonderful the cottage was. It was far more spacious than I expected (plenty of space for travel cot in the main bedroom) and everything was in immaculate condition. Despite the wet and miserable weather, the cottage was warm and cosy and delightful. We will definitely be back! Our 4 yr old twins are already asking when we can go back to our Yorkshire house 😀! We also had a lovely family meal with cousins and grandparents at the shoulder of mutton, just next door! Playground in Kirkby Overblow also has the best views of any playground I’ve ever been to (… which is a lot!) - we spent almost a whole day there 😂

The location was very good. It was great having a pub so close and distance from the main town was good. Once we had managed how to work the heating the cottage was very cosy. Beds were really comfortable and the bathrooms were excellent. Great showers.

The cleanliness could have been better. There was a lot of dust particularly in the kitchen area. Not enough towels. Only one large and one small towel per guest wasn’t enough,

Tithe Cottage ligt in een prachtig gebied. De Cottage kijkt uit op een glooiend landschap. De tuin is keurig onderhouden en de pub Shoulder of Mutton een aanrader. Er is een prettig keukentje. De bedden prima en de badkamers waren goed.

Ondanks de aankondiging was er geen open haard. Het tapijt in de woonkamer en slaapkamers is niet schoon en ook de bekleding van banken en stoelen is aangetast.

Gorgeous cottage with stunning garden and modern facilities but with an oldy worldy feel and some cute quirks. Perfect location, lovely village, close to Wharfedale Grange where we attended a dear friend’s wedding. The Shoulder of Mutton pub had fantastic food & friendly staff if you need a place to eat, only a 1 minute walk down the road.

The house was very nice and the village as well. You definitely need a car since there is nothing nearby except for the local pub.
The TV was not working when we arrived but it was just a cable connection under a carpet that I could fix myself after some detective work. We didn't manage to get the towel dryers to work and couldn't find any book with instructions for the house.
We found two Atlantic sender units where one needed new batteries but they were not connected to the towel rails as they should be or possibly there was no electricity to the towel rails at all.
The kitchen was great with everything you needed and it was lovely to sit outside in the morning for breakfast when the sun was shining.
Very good to have multiple bathrooms and the car parking.

the cottage was lovely and well proportioned. The location was ideal for our trip and the local pub served hood food and drink. Very quiet at night and we all slept soundly in our comfy beds.

Could have done with more than one door key, but it wasn't a big deal

Tithe Cottage is set in a beautiful village on the outskirts of Harrogate. Easily accessible, it has stunnning views overlooking fields and countryside.
The garden is a haven of relaxation.

During our stay the weather was amazing, as a result we spent a considerable amount of time outdoors in the beautiful garden. The outdoor furniture however was very worn apart from a new bench outside the back door. We couldn’t eat at the table and chairs on the patio as they were very dirty, old and without cushions.

The house and garden were fine, location great. The garden is beautiful.

No-one had emptied the bins for some time. We arrived on a Tuesday and bin day was a Monday. On entering the property it’s not a good first impression to be greeted by overflowing rubbish and a box of empty bottles which you pass to the front door. We were unable to get anything in the bin so put the rubbish bag outside, where it may be ripped open by wildlife (foxes?). Also the first paving stone to the path looks as though it has recently been broken and is very loose. Lots of parents park opposite at school times so this may have been caused by someone reversing. Most of the garden furniture could do with painting and some of it is falling apart.

A lovely characterful cottage in a beautiful location with stunning views across fields. There is an excellent local pub a very short walk away. Furniture, kitchen equipment and beds/bedding all to a good or high standard. A real bonus and sign of a well run property was provision of washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets and store cupboard essentials as well as milk, tea & coffee etc. Altogether highly recommended.

I liked the fact the house alarm went off in the middle of the night and when I called for assistance all I was told was that they had sent a message to someone and they would be in touch. The alarm went off at 12 at night and I was a Email at 1430 the following day.

Our stay was ruined by the house alarm going off in the middle of the night, i got zero help and didn't stay the second night as I still didn't have a code for the alarm..

Everything was fine apart from what we thought was a safety hazard . In the twin bedroom there were 2 unsecured glass metal framed large pictures above the bed heads which had they fallen would of caused injury. We removed the one above my bed for the duration of our stay and left it on the bed with an explanation note otherwise we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Had a great stay as a family of four (2 adults, 2 children) for which the cottage is perfectly sized. Accurate pictures and descriptions umber, and great communication leading up to self check-in and through the stay. Well positioned for days out in Harrogate, Ripon etc... Harewood House is a few mins away, as is Stockeld Park for the kids. Summer stay, so no need of them, but worth noting all rooms have electric radiators which will make this a warm cottage in the winter unlike many old properties!
