Yes, bed linen, towels, 2 x tea towels, are provided for guests. However, if you’re planning on heading to the coast to swim in the sea or have booked a cottage with a hot tub, you might like to bring an extra towel each and your own footwear to slip on b as you walk between your cottage to your hot tub.

We ask that you kindly arrive after 4 pm and depart before 10 am with no exceptions. This is to ensure your cottage has time to be cleaned and aired between guests. If you have arrived in the area earlier than this, you can explore the local area first. Take a look at our Eating and Shopping suggestions.
As outlined in the cottage information, our maximum cottage occupancy is for two guests. You agree to this when you book a Dalesend Cottage and we ask that you do not have anyone else to stay in your cottage.
