“Beautiful well equipped lodge with some lovely personal touches such as the bread and jams.”

Very peaceful site. A larger mirror would have been handy but otherwise the lodge lacked nothing. We will definitely be back.

“This was our second stay at 17 The oaks and once again we had a lovely stay ,very cosy and comfortable with everything we needed however there were a few cleanliness issues ,dust on all surfaces sticky stuff on walls in shower room ,left over carton in the bin ,thick dust on shower room floor and a few crumbs on kitchen floor however the bedding and towels were of lovely quality and spotlessly clean .”

This would not put us off staying again as we love the lodge and the area .

Hi, and thanks for the kind words, glad you enjoyed your return visit. We’ll have a look at the issues mentioned, thanks. Property Owner

“We had a wonderful stay at 17 The Oaks.”

The Lodge is beautiful, extremely spacious and very well equipped with everything you could poassibly need. Gallaber Park is situated within easy reach of the Yorkshire Dales and is well maintained by the staff who are very friendly. We can heartily recommend a stay here you would be very comfortable indeed.

“We had a fantastic stay at 17 the oaks.”

This is a great place to stay whilst you are visiting North Yorkshire. Gallaber Park is a picture perfect place to stay. The lodge is fantastic, contemporary and spacious. the welcome package of tea, coffee, juice, biscuits, bread & jams was a super touch. Mark is the perfect host, on hand if you need anything.

Thank you very much, that’s very kind. Glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner

“High quality accommodation- clearly a loved holiday home with high quality fixtures and fittings.”

Had more than we could have asked for.

- Andrew, August 2024

Thank you very much, very kind. Hope you enjoyed your time here Property Owner
Andrew August 2024

“The holiday property is a 5 star accommodation, The owner had provided by far and above normal expectations making sure we had milk, tea/coffee of different selections, bread, butter, different jams and orange juice on arrival.”

All the cooking requirements and more as well as a huge selection of cooking devices and utensils, wow, exceptional, best ever we have ever experienced. Plenty, even more than required, towels and linen and so clean and tidy, I hope we did it justice in leaving it as we found. Even the outside furniture was great. The owner made huge efforts in communicating with us to make sure our stay was as enjoyable as possible. Free WIFI and TV brilliant, helped a lot when internet searching the areas for touring and route finding. If you had supplied a chef, we would have stayed indefinitely. Yorkshire is a wonderful place with lots a interesting places and scenery. This site is ideally placed for a base to tour Yorkshire. The reception were very helpful, even thou this was a private arrangement. There is a pub on site, but do not do food, however there is a meat wagon every other Saturday and a fish and chip wagon every other alternate Friday. But not to worry, there are plenty of small shops and takeaways nearby and larger superstores just a short distance. The closeness of the railway station makes it excellent for train travel to the wider regions, if you want a break from driving. The scenic beauty of Yorkshire is not to be missed and should be added to your bucket list with this site and accommodation. Thank you.

- Andrew, August 2024

Thanks so much, it means a lot to hear such nice words. I am very glad you enjoyed your stay here. Thank you. Property Owner
Kim July 2024

“The Lodge was beautiful, definitely the best we have ever stayed in.”

The location on the park was excellent, and the park itself was very nice and well-maintained, and the free mini-golf was an added bonus and very much appreciated. The only negative, two of the blinds from the living area had been taken down and not replaced so later in the evening you had a feeling of lack of privacy. We would definitely return. Kim Hassan

Thanks very much for your kind words. Very glad you enjoyed your stay at Gallaber. Property Owner
Bart July 2024

“We had a lovely and relaxing time.”

The cabin/cottage was very comfortable, we had everything we needed. The cottage was very clean, there was a nice welcoming basket. Excellent bed and shower. It’s a lovely place to stay and explore the Southern part of the Yorkshire Dales. The only thing we had a problem with, was, that we didn’t know what to do with the rubbish. So we binned everything in a bag and left it near the front door. Hope that was ok.

- Bart, July 2024

Thank you for the kind words, I am pleased you had a good stay. Thanks also for the feedback - I will update the in-house notes on the waste and recycling facilities on site. Property Owner
Jemma June 2024

“Really happy with our stay - beautiful accommodation, exceptionally clean and tidy and perfect for what we needed.”

Only request would be for a hairdryer to be provided but this wouldn't affect me staying again.

- Jemma, June 2024

Thank you for your kind words, very glad you enjoyed your stay. I will be adding a hair dryer as suggested. Property Owner

“Fantastic luxury lodge on a well maintained site.”

Balcony is a sun trap with comfortable seating. Fully equipped with many added extras & quality kitchenware. Comfortable furniture after a day exploring & very clean. Parking space next to lodge so ideal for people with less mobility. Good communication with owner. As mentioned on another review the TV reception not brill - possibly trees block signal & toilet seat loose. Going again end May - looking forward to our 2nd stay 5*

“This property was 99% perfect.”

The only minor niggle was the poor sound quality from the TV - which refused to respond to any attempt at adjusting the usual settings. We will certainly return in 2024.

- James, November 2023

Thank you, glad you enjoyed your stay. I will take a look at the tv right away - thanks for letting us know. Property Owner

Helena October 2023

“This was a lovely modern lodge that was extremely well equipped where clearly lots of thought has gone into it ensuring everything you can think of is there for you.”

On arrival there was a loaf of bread, milk, juice, tea and coffee included pods for fresh coffee and biscuits too which my son enjoyed devouring. We have stayed in many lodges over the years and this I would say was one of the best we've stayed in. Also ideally placed for accessing the dales. Definitely would recommend this lodge.

- Helena, October 2023

Thank you so much Helena, very kind words. Great to hear you had a good time and enjoyed the lodge and the area. I’ll put out extra biscuits next time Property Owner

17 The Oaks is a stylish, two-bedroom abode settled on Gallaber Park in Long Preston, North Yorkshire.

Set upon the cusp of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, 17 The Oaks offers a well-positioned base for outdoor enthusiasts, whilst providing access to a range of on-site facilities, perfect for easing a self-catered stay.

Benefit from two parking spaces on your arrival, before ascending the external steps to reach your private decked area, a delightful space for outdoor dining and barbecues through the warmer months.

Step inside and take in the light and airy open-plan living space, with its welcoming gas fire and plush seating, perfect for gathering with your loved ones and enjoying a movie night.

The well-equipped kitchen offers all you need to whip up delicious homemade meals to enjoy in the dining area, finishing your evening with a visit to the on-site bar.

After a day of exploring, retire to one of two homely bedrooms, a king-size with the luxury of a dressing area and en-suite walk-in shower, and a twin, the latter serviced by a sleek bathroom.

Begin your day with a gentle stroll through the quaint village of Long Preston, where you can stock up on the essentials at the local Post Office and village store, or enjoy some traditional fare at the local pubs.

For a truly picturesque day out, take a short drive to the historic market town of Settle and take in the breath-taking views from the Settle-Carlisle Railway line, or tour The Museum of North Craven Life for a taste of history, before exploring the limestone scars of Malham; a must-see in the area.

Equally as impressive, Skipton is a bustling town with a vibrant atmosphere, with a colourful high street of shops, cafes, and pubs.

To make the most of the scenic region, a walk, hike, or bike ride along the trails of the Yorkshire Dales National Park is a must, stopping off at one of many beauty spots for a picnic, before returning home for sundowners.

All of this awaits at 17 The Oaks.
