Hello there,


I was wondering whether any one could recommend a Yorkshire holiday cottage, or a company which they have used to book similar holidays in UK through.


In-laws live in Scotland. Cousins in Lincoln. Lovely friends have moved to Durham, and in order that we get to see everyone, I thought we could base ourselves in Yorkshire and the in-laws could come and join us for a weekend, we could visit our friends in Durham, and take a trip into York for the day. Cousins could also come and visit.


Any suggestions would be a good start, as I have no idea.

Don't know of any cottage companies per se but we go to the Dales in North Yorkshire all the time as my husband's family live in Skipton. I can highly recommend the villages round there....in the beautiful dales - like Grassington, Gargrave, Threshfield, Linton etc...really beautiful, lovely walks, not too far from Harrogate/Leeds/York etc...think the Tour de France is going through the villages next year.

We stayed here a couple of years ago:

Lovely holiday - we plan to go back.

    • Yes they do, but that is not the core tenet of representative democracy. At that level, we are voting for a parliamentary representative, irregardless of whether parties exist or not. It's why candidates can stand as independents. 
    • Sadly I think you will never convince people like this. They think gardens have to be kept chopped back and controlled. My theory is that this comes from being (or trying to be) controlling in every aspect of their lives, so I doubt if anything you could say or show them would have any effect. But are they actually coming into your garden or leaning over into it and pulling up/damaging things? If so, maybe one of our community police people could have a word with them?
    • Dear Nature lovers - advice please. I am being harassed by a neighbour who doesn't like my standard of gardening which she calls 'messy'. (I have rewilded my garden with advice from the London Wildlife Trust and a gardening expert from The Times.) I have twice caught this neighbour and her husband pulling up my plants and damaging my trees. Plus she has photographed my house, and sent a dozen complaints to the Dulwich Estate about my plan to rewild the verge outside my property - approved by the Estate some 4 years ago in line with their stated policy of supporting biodiversity in and around Dulwich. What can I do to introduce these neighbours  to the benefits to us all of returning a portion of our gardens to nature?
