The bespoke fitted kitchen with granite worktops has well stocked cupboards from cake baking to Champagne sipping, every you need is there.Whilst the lounge and kitchen are seperate, they have been recently re-decorated to 'flow" into one another. With some new upcycled furniture the old blends with the new perfectly. A Smart TV is a great addition for those movie nights by the fire.

Reviews for Wigglesworth House and Cottages

Meet the owner

Louise Mc Aneny

We purchased and took over the running of Wigglesworth House & Cottages in 2015. Having lived overseas for 20 years, raising our teenage children, the time was right to relocate back to the UK. One step into Wigglesworth House and a tour around the gorgeous cottages and we knew we had found our forever home. We continue to redecorate and upgrade Gamekeepers Cottage, whilst Louise's father is currently living in Cross cottage. We have three wonderful geese, our "guard dogs". Our hens provide delicious eggs and our younger guests love egg collecting! Nettie & Nando, our Nigerian Dwarf goats love munching vegetables and showing off to our guests. Hattie our flat-coated retriever and Piper our Golden retriever love having guests fuss over them too. Stephen continues his Global role but is fondly known as "the groundsman" when he is around. Our "children" have all fled the nest ,but love coming home to the peace and quiet of the Dales, bringing friends with them. Louise runs the cottages and is a very happy Yorkshire lass who is blessed to have returned 'home'. We strive to make your Yorkshire holiday a memorable one!
