    We ended up in a hotel room with a wet room, not ideal. TV and Bluetooth system outdated and obsolete in the room. Bed headboard was very squeaky too.

    Great base location to explore the Dale's and excellent spa and pool facilities to relax after a day's walking. Breakfast was spot on. 👌

    The main thing was the WiFi. It was very weak in my room. Also it would be useful to have a warning about the hot water in the room as it was extremely hot. But the good points by far outweighed these points.

    I had a room in the inn. It was nicely decorated, very comfortable and clean. I used the pool which was great and breakfast was very good. All the staff and especially the lady who served me breakfast were lovely.

    The information/pictures that we saw prior to arriving to site didn't really give an idea of the scale of the complex - it really is huge and I imagine gets quite busy in peak season.

    Swimming pool was a massive bonus, kids went in it every day we were there. Great being close to nature at the edge of the complex, spotted pheasants and squirrels around the chalet. Went to a pub called the Devonshire Arms in Cracoe which was fabulous. Lots of lovely countryside to explore close by.

    Some of the accommodation facilities were impractical and appear to not have been selected with a user friendly perspective. Some of the restaurant staff were young and appeared to be inexperienced, resulting in a spoilt dinning experience on our second evening. Also, we requested a room refresh on day 2 but nothing was done hence our room was not service throughout our 3 night stay.

    Great location, have visited the Gamekeeper before but not as a resident. Very modern accommodation with very good amenities adjacent. A lot of effort has obviously gone into developing the site to provide a complete holiday package.

    There was a hair tie left behind (from presumably the previous occupant) on the towel rack - perhaps a little more attention to detail needed in cleaning.

    Pod was cosy, leisure centre was nice, close to lots of attractions in the area

    Everything was great except the leisure centre was not operating in the last couple of days, due to low temperature. On the first day we managed to use the sauna and steam room, which were great, and the pool and hot tub were cold.

    Everything except above.

    Radiator didn't work. A good job there was a heated towel rail in the bathroom.

    Extremely comfortable bed. Lovely bathroom. Very good breakfast. Restaurant served very good food at reasonable prices. Friendly staff. Use of swimming pool etc an added bonus after a day of walking. Good location. Bus stop at entrance. Near Grassington amenities.

    For breakfast I couldn't have yoghurt and some eggs on toast. Had to choose one or the other. in the end it was one scoop of yoghurt with some crumble and compote. not much to start the day. I also missed some fresh fruits and a good cup of coffee. The diner wasn’t that great, somewhat greasy and I couldn’t find the fish on my plate… little to none WIFI.

    Our Room was clean and comfortable. The wellnes was a nice bonus to our stay.
