The cottage was warm and comfortable. It was just what we wanted as we could walk straight along the river in both directions - we were spoilt for choice by the walking routes from the door. There is a little supermarket 5 minutes away and a huge choice of pubs so it's easy to spend a few days without needing the car. Perfect!

A great stay in Masham. The cottage was cosy and had everything that we needed for our stay. Close to everything in Masham and plenty of walking in the area. We enjoyed our stay and would visit again.

No issues at all with the place itself or the check in process. Only issue came about after check in - claiming we'd left marks on the bath (which wasn't used). Would recommend to others, so long as they photograph any issues and the property before leaving.

Cottage was ideal for what we wanted, close to the town centre, pubs etc. Cottage was warm, plenty of hot water and there was all we needed in the kitchen. On site parking is a bonus. Would stay here again if we visited.

A restful break and well equipped and clean property. Positive: Well set out and equipped for a comfortable stay. The support team responded promptly which was appreciated. Negative: Nothing

Cosy, but peaceful cottage. Positive: A very cosy cottage, with everything you will need for a comfortable stay. We found the cottage to be cleaner and better equipped than some other places we have stayed recently. It was very peaceful, with a comfortable bed, which ensured a good nights sleep. The pub next door caused no problems to us at all. Negative: Nothing.

Great cottage and location for exploring the Dales. Lovely to be able to walk into the village and to the pubs nearby. Cottage as described and great amenities.

The cottage is very clean, comfortable, and well equipped. It is on the small side but was perfect for us and our teenage daughter. The main bed is large and very comfortable - as it says on the site, the second bedroom is really only suitable for one adult. There was plenty of seating. It was hot so we did not use the wood burner, and were pleased that the cottage remained on the cool side. It's about five minutes walk from the centre of Masham, and extremely close to a pub with nice outside seating area and the Black Sheep Brewery. Parking is easy. There is lots to do in the area - walks, visiting ruins, castles, picturesque villages and more. Would definitely recommend a stay here for a couple or a family of three.

Great stay, right next to the white bear hotel, there was live music on Saturday and Sunday for a good atmosphere. Walkable to both breweries and the village shops. Fountains Abbey recommended for a daytrip out

We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. The area is nice. There is some occasional noise from the nearby pub but it depends on who decides to drink outside and how loud they are! The cottage was clean. Having a parking space outside is really useful. We appreciated having a smart TV with access to BBC -Player, Disney+, YouTube etc. It was a comfortable space in which to spend a few days. We'd happily stay again.

Fantastic place to stay for a family in Masham. The accommodation had everything that you needed for a break and bonus points for being so well equipped for travelling with a toddler (they even had plastic cutlery which was brilliant!). We'd definitely stay here again.

BarkerBooking.comJun 2026

Positive: The cottage was cosy and comfortable. It was within easy reach of the centre of Masham and beautiful countryside surroundings. Negative: The hot water system woke us up about 5am (it sounded like the water was boiling.) In the hot water head tank. We did ring to report it.

Fabulous cottage, perfect for our long weekend away, everything we needed was catered for. Super warm and toasty, cracking log burner, light and airy, lovely decor, immaculately clean. Great base to enjoy the village and surrounding area.

The airbnb is advertised as self checkin but the details were held back until a further form was completed, and I was required to contact via phone. Most locations advertising this checkin provide the lockbox code via the messenge system. This extra step caused issue, ans forced me to provide further details. That said, the location and airbnb itself was clean, tidy, and exactly as advertised. I would just suggest that the initial checkin was rockier than other locations I have stayed in.

Brilliant stay lovely an clean prime location

GuestAirbnbApr 2026

Lovely cottage in a fantastic location. The White Bear pub a short stumble away does great food and Theakstons beers, then the Black Sheep brewery is just behind the cottage too, great tour. There is a Co-op nearby too which is useful. Local bakery in Masham is brilliant as are the cafes. Tons to do in the area with a toddler: Forbidden Corner, Thorpe Perrow, Brymor Ice Cream Shop, Druid's Temple to name a few.

We’ve stayed a week at the 2 Dairy Cottage. It’s a lovely place to stay and has everything you need. The instructions were clear and it was easy to find. Bed and sofa were comfortable. Kitchen big enough to cook in and has everything you need to cook a meal. Supermarket at walking distance. Restaurant just a few steps away. Also a very nice walk along the river. We’ve had a great stay and would recommend the place. Thank you for everything.

anneBooking.comMar 2026

Positive: Neat little cottage ,great location, very clean and well equipped .Fantastically comfortable beds Negative: Shower was powerful but the head height couldn't be adjusted as it was too tight to adjust and it swivelled round so had to unhook it and use it holding in hand which wasn't ideal.

GuestAirbnbMar 2026

A great little cottage. It's in a fab location on the doorstep of The White Bear Hotel and The Black Sheep Brewery, where we enjoyed meals and drinks during our stay. The town centre is a short walk away and there's plenty of walks to do and places to visit within short driving distance. The cottage had everything we needed and was comfortable.
