    Nothing really.

    Great room in fabulous old house just 10 minutes walk from the town centre. The room was bright and spacious with some lovely added touches i.e flowers and fruit. Comfortable bed in a spotlessly clean room. The breakfast choices were very generous and we opted for the full English breakfast which didn’t disappoint. The host was very friendly she made us feel welcome from the minute we arrived.

    Chris was very welcoming and friendly. Very helpful, we parked just outside the front door and we were given a parking permit for the duration of our stay. Spotlessly clean. Perfect location. Breakfasts were very good. Thank you so much, Chris, we'll be back.

    Not really anything other than steepish steps up to front door may present a problem for more infirm visitors and street parking may not be right outside the Dales but slightly further down the road if on a bank holiday and nice weather with people visiting Valley Park opposite…don’t think this is a deal breaker …

    Large rooms with period decoration, nice attention to detail, very good breakfast and excellent hosts…loved our stay.

    The Dales is a superb guesthouse with little touches you may not get in a hotel, like fresh flowers and fruit in the room. Lovely hosts, exceptionally clean and great location. Nothing not to like!

    Nothing really. The toiletries were ok, 8 usually pack my own but the body wash was the combination type hair and body , not a fan personally, also the round little soap, again not for me, nothing wrong with them really but not for me. Only thing out of their control was the very hot weather, we had a fan in the room but it was so hot that weekend

    My husband enjoyed the free sweets by the door, it's very convenient to the centre , opposite a lovely park. The fresh fruit breakfast was the best I ever had
