Tennant Cottage, Malham

Lovely, comfortable & well equipped cottage situated in a very peaceful location bang in the centre of Malham. Spacious kitchen & living room, with 2 bedrooms upstairs & a nicely fitted bathroom. Small garden to the rear which could be fully fenced in so our dog was able to explore. Parking space at the front. Great base to explore from with dog friendly walks to Malham Cove & Janet’s Foss right on the doorstep. Malham Tarn was another enjoyable walk, 10 minutes drive way. David & Kath were lovely hosts. The Lister Arms, Victoria Inn (Kirkby Malham) & Talbot Inn (Settle) all provided good beers & food, & were all dog friendly.

The cottage was very comfortable, cosy and well equipped. The bed in the main bedroom was comfortable.

A character property with beautiful walks straight from the doorstep. The wood burner was very welcome at the end of a days walking and the sound of the river nearby and fresh air was conducive to a good nights sleep.

Tennant Cottage is in a superb location and is an extremely cosy and well equipped cottage. So pleased that it was dog friendly and we found it very good value.

The Cottage was spot on, will be going back.

Loved the area, the cottage was very clean and comfortable and there were walks from the doorstep. 2 pubs close by in case you don't fancy cooking. If you enjoy walking, the countryside, fantastic scenery and fresh air you will love this place whatever the weather!

Having had to cancel last years holiday at short notice, sadly losing our deposit, I was still keen to rebook Tennant Cottage for our annual break in 2015 as it seemed to tick all our boxes. We weren't disappointed! Both my husband and I agree that this is the best cottage that we have stayed in so far, and there have been many! Comfortable, homely, a super kitchen with everything you could possibly need, there was nothing that didn't exceed expectations. Just perfection, thank you!

A delightful cottage in a beautiful part of the country.

Great location. The owner had put a lot of thought into the needs of holidaymakers.

My friend had booked the cottage before and was just as impressed as previously, and said it had been further improved, which was a real bonus. The location of the cottage could not have been better and was perfect for walking, photography and birdwatching.

Beautiful cottage in a beautiful village, everything we needed was provided, it was very comfortable. Didn't want to leave.

A cosy warm cottage in a lovely village with all the facilities you need for a great holiday.

The property is in a great location, with easily accessible walking from the doorstep. We had fantastic sunny days, sleet and snow and on the tops very fierce winds, but what a fabulous area to enjoy. The whole holiday was very relaxing.

My Brother and I stayed in this cottage in October 2014 and were blessed with really nice weather. The cottage was a real home from home for the week with everything thought of that could possibly be wanted. A good well equipped kitchen can be found upon entering and the Milk in the fridge was a nice touch. We ate out most of the time as there's two great Pubs literally on the doorstep, great food especially at The Buck Inn right opposite with Thwaites, Theakstons and Timmy Taylors, why bother turning the Oven on!! However should we have wanted to the facilities in the kitchen were second to none. The Lounge was very comfortable with TV, DVD, Games and Reading Matter all provided should you require them. Upstairs the two Bedrooms were excellent. The Master Bedroom, complete with King Size bed couldn't be better and the smaller Bedroom with two Singles was just as cozy. The Bathroom was very nice. Clean and well equipped with both a Bath and a Shower which was lovely and warm, sometimes lacking in that department in some cottages I've stayed in. A reasonably large Garden at the rear of the property and a Table and Chairs at the front completed the whole thing. Some people complained in the Visitors Book about the lack of Wi-Fi, but who wants the internet when on Holiday? BT customers could take advantage of an 'Openzone' well within receiving distance anyway. We couldn't have wished for a better cottage and the surroundings just added to the great week we had. All in all, fantastic.

An exceptionally well appointed cottage, possibly one of the best I have ever stayed in. Lots of little touches i.e.tea, coffee and milk provided upon arrival make all the difference. The fixtures and fittings were all to a very high standard and all appear to be kept in a good state of repair. The cottage is situated almost in the centre of the village, not too far to walk to the pub opposite, yet still giving the impression of being tucked away nicely - wonderful!

We booked this cottage for 1 week in July to explore the Yorkshire dales both walking and driving and see Le Tour. It was cosy and very well appointed with a well equipped kitchen and lovely lounge room. We only needed to walk out the door to access some wonderful walks e.g. Malham Cove and Tarn.The National Park information centre was only 5 minutes walk away. There was a kettle BBQ which we used several times but needed to provide the charcoal. It was an easy drive to Skipton and many picturesque villages. The owners lived in a nearby village and had provided us with information about the area which was very helpful. There were two good pubs a few minutes walk from the cottage both of which served good meals and beer. We had another couple join us halfway through our stay and there was plenty of room with a second bedroom with two single beds. We would certainly stay at this footage again when in the dales.

The cottage was cosy and warm, very clean and well equipped, we have nothing negative to say about this cottage.

I loved everything about it. A stunning cottage in a beautiful location. We will definitely be back!

This is a very cosy cottage which is in a superb location. It is opposite the villages 2 pubs but not to close to be disturbed by any noise from them. The countryside in the immediate vicinity is varied and beautiful. We did many direct walks from the cottage to Gordale Scar, Malham Cove and Janet's Foss. It's also in a great position to explore Wharfedale, Malhamdale and Ingleton. It was our second time at this cottage, I've stayed at many different places in the Dales and it's location really can't be bettered.

Cottage is spacious yet cosy. The location is perfect: in the centre of the village but peaceful. So many walks start from the front door: Malham Cove, Janet's Foss, Gordale Scar. Super comfortable beds and sofas, and excellent TV. Probably our favourite cottage ever.

Tennant cottage is spacious yet cosy, rough-hewn yet glamorous. The location is perfect: in the centre of the village but peaceful. So many walks start from the front door: Malham Cove, Janet's Foss, Gordale Scar... Super comfortable beds and sofas, and excellent TV. The four main rooms are beautifully styled, yet retain the cottage character. I'm sure my bedroom wall was at least one foot thick. The kitchen is well-equipped, though the cooker is slow, and the washer-dryer was particularly useful on our muddy, moist week. Probably our favourite cottage ever. Note that the garden has no front gate so cheeky dogs could easily escape.

This lovely cottage exceeded our expectations as was bigger and better equipped than we had expected. The friendly owners and community added to our enjoyment.

Just returned after spending 1 week at this cottage. this cottage is just what it says it is great in every way. the furnishings are excellent as are the facilities. a great kitchen diner for you all to sit round. the master bed is enormous and without doubt the most comfortable I have ever slept in. the cottage is in a perfect setting you will enjoy sitting at the front of the cottage after a long walk with a cool glass in your hand watching the world go by. in the village there are 2 pubs, we did not eat in either as they were very expensive and the portions looked small. of the 2 the lister arms was much cheaper than the buck inn. there are numerous great walks from the village. i would recommend this cottage to any one.

Cosy cottage in a stunning location.

Tennant Cottage was one of the best holiday cottages we have stayed at. There were two excellent pubs which served very good food and real ales within 100 yards of the cottage.

Superbly fitted out warm and cosy everything worked. Spotlessly clean and very well situated in the Dales for walking.

The cottage is in a fantastic spot, we didn't use the car for days because you just started your walks straight from the cottage. Also there were two good pubs within 2 mins walk away and they served really good food. The cottage was very cosy and warm and we would book this cottage again.

The cottage was extremely comfortable. The flowers and milk left to welcome us was a wonderful touch. We have stayed numerous times in the Dales and I think this is probably the best well equipped cottage we have ever stayed in. We loved it and would definitely recommend it.

We enjoyed the location of the cottage and the walks that were available from the door.

The cottage was in a prime location for walks on the Yorkshire Dales meaning we didn't have to use the car. The property had everything we needed for a relaxing week.

Delightful, well appointed and beautifully positioned cottage. Lovely comfy bed, superb local walks and just over the quiet road from two cosy inns with roaring fires. Highly recommended.

The property is well located in a quiet corner of the village alongside Malham Beck. The environment around the cottage was very peaceful with no disturbance from anyone or anything. Having 2 pubs within 2 minutes walking distance from the door was extremely useful and served us well. The cottage itself has a warm homely feeling and has everything the average couple or family need. The walking around the cottage is beautiful. Without doubt, Tennant Cottage is one of the best cottages my wife and I have ever stayed in, and the bed is one of the best we have ever slept in. We have every intention of returning to this cottage in the not too distant future, as we liked it so much. We had a lovely holiday and the cottage made it an enjoyable experience.

Fantastic location, and very comfortable cottage after a days walking.

A really delightful stay in Malham. The cottage is spacious, tastefully decorated and contained everything we needed. I always bring backups of various things, but didn't need any of them! The cottage is right in the centre of Malham, but also feels out of the way and quiet. The surrounding area is just beautiful and we really enjoyed our stay. We holidayed with our 15 month old and he did just fine - there wasn't too much we had to move out of his reach and there was plenty of space for him to run around in. The only thing I would suggest, if your little one isn't safe on stairs, is that you bring something to use as a stair gate. Oh yes, the only downside is that with mobile signal being non-existent, the provision of wi-fi would have been really useful - unless of course you truly want to get away from it all!

Tennant Cottage was probably one of the best cottages we have ever stayed in. Its position in the village, the sash windows, the cosy log fire, and the super bed in the main bedroom were just a few of the things that helped to make it so special. We will recommend to family and friends and will definitely stay there again.

Very comfortable and well equipped. Superb location, ideal for a walking holiday. Very friendly owner.

The property is perfectly placed especially if you are walkers like we are. The pubs are ok, however if you are vegitarian or gluten and wheat free would suggest trying further a field. The cottage is fully adequate with everything you could possibly need. The master bed is to die for although for those taller people remember to duck as you go through the door!!! Everything said would definitely go back to this cottage.

We loved the cottage and it was very well equipped. The location in the centre of the village with good pubs a few minutes walk away was brilliant and we enjoyed the lovely scenic walks from the door. Being wildlife enthusiasts we enjoyed sitting in the garden and watching the bats at dusk.

Quiet location with fantastic surroundings.

It really was a home from home and was exceptionally comfortable and well-equipped.

We loved the location and the bed was extremely comfortable.

A brilliant holiday. Ideal location for walking. Only moved the car once in the whole week.

The cottage was comfortable, spacious and welcoming and the village is excellent. The locals are so friendly. Will definitely return.

The cottage was well equipped and extremely comfortable and situated in a beautiful part of North Yorkshire. We had a great week and would thoroughly recommend it.

My husband and I and our Siberian Cat Sasha, enjoyed our week's stay in Tennant Cottage. This was a part of the Yorkshire Dales we hadnt visited before but it was a pretty hair raising experience driving to and from Malham on the very narrow and winding lanes. We were a bit disappointed as we had booked Sunday lunch at the Buck Inn opposite but on arriving at the Pub the not too friendly barman said there was no note of our booking and would have been nice if he had at least apologised. It was not the owner of the Pub who on another night we again visited and he was very friendly. Wished we had known about no reception for mobiles in the area as you had to drive we were advised a mile or so out of the village which if there had been an emergency would have been pretty frightening. We really liked the little cafe in the village serving good quality breakfasts and other food all day. For us the location was a little distant as we were not "walkers" to other amenities but it didnt detract from the area which is beautiful. However Tennant Cottage was the cleanest cottage we have ever rented and very well presented and furnished.

Terrific - very comfortable home for the weekend. Two pubs in the village serve decent beer and food. Lovely easy walks from the doorstep. Just what we needed. Will be checking the website this weekend for the next break, thanks!

The cottage was cosy and well equipped. The bed was comfortable. Good quality crockery etc. Games and DVDs were provided. Cleaning materials were provided. Central location in the village with pubs nearby. Lots of walks from the doorstep, didn't use the car.

We really liked the cottage and village and the surrounding area was beautiful. Good walks on the doorstep for all abilities.

Location was excellent, just perfect for walking. There was enough places to eat out and light shopping without being over commercialised. We would certainly return in the future. I liked the ease of access to the property and the fact that the owners didn't pester us nor ask me for ridiculous sums of money as a deposit for breakages that hadn't taken place. Very good cottage.

Closeness of the National Park Information Centre. Many walks to interesting places within easy distance. Village location not too overcrowded. Likeable people - very helpful & friendly.

Very comfortable & well equipped cottage.We loved the proximity to the Pennine Way & our dog loved paddling in the river-it meant we were able to bring her back home without having to wipe muddy paws!The local pubs were welcoming & provided excellent fare.

Lovely cottage and great location, especially, if like us you wanted to leave the car parked up for a few days.

Peaceful location; ideal for dog walking; good pubs close by; friendly people.

A lovely cottage in a beautiful location. The Pennine Way goes right past the door. A great place to stay if you like walking.

A good position in a lovely village with excellent local walking.

A very comfortable, cosy cottage right in the centre of Malham, just a few yards from both (excellent) pubs. The card and flowers, wood for stove and real pint bottle of milk were very welcoming! Everything we could have wanted in the kitchen, including wrap for sandwiches, but still plenty of space to cook and a lovely big table for eating and spreading out maps. The cosy living room with wood-burning stove was great for the cool evenings after damp days out walking, and the bedroom was very comfortable, even I slept well! We'd love to return sometime.

We enjoyed the home from home feeling.

Perfect location for walking, huge variety from the doorstep. Excellent value for money.

It was a lovely cottage in a very good location. It was great to be able to go for walks from the front door.

Perfect accommodation and area. Everything you needed was there. Will definitely recommend to others.

We enjoyed our holiday and cottage, the owner checked to see if we were OK which was very reassuring. It was nice and central and the walks are great, we would visit again.

Cottage was excellent. Good welcoming touches with flowers, milk, basic tea and coffee. Great location and excellent pubs near by. Would recommend to others.

We had a very good holiday this is a very nice cottage.

We absolutely loved the cottage and the village. When we arrived the owner had left tea, coffee and milk. These little touches were very welcome. The area has many different walks for all different abilities and Settle and Skipton are not far away if we wanted a change. We have no faults with our trip. We will definitely book the same cottage in the summer.
