Great stay in the house, it is immaculately presented and the owners had thought of everything with the lovely touch of a hamper on arrival. We had a really relaxing few days with some friends and nothing was too much trouble for the owners, they were really friendly and welcoming. Would definitely recommend. Thankyou.

We loved this property. Location was great for the places we wanted to visit, York, Whitby, various waterfalls etc. a lovely hamper and treats were left for us, making our stay even better. The local shop had everything you could possibly need, and excellent brownies! The beds were so comfy. Hot tub was great. If you had small children or pets the enclosed garden area across the drive would definitely be a plus. All needs catered for. Loads of room, and all facilities. Loved it!

We loved the cottage and had a great stay. Only issue was the mould covered shower head which was replaced when we mentioned it. My partner also said the couch smelled of dogs but I expected that in a dog friendly place!
Barbara

Absolutely wonderful accommodation to stay in. Extra special touches such as bath robes provided for the hot tub. The welcome food parcel is very thoughtful and most generous we have even had in many years of holiday rentals. Nothing was any trouble and met at the accommodation by the owner, We will definitely be back.
Lesley
The property was spacious, spotless clean and dog friendly. The kitchen was well equipped and we loved the locally sourced food hamper. Well located for visiting York (we used and would recommend the park and ride facility) and surrounding area. The hosts provided excellent recommendations for restaurants and the Chinese was excellent. We made full use of the fantastic hot tub in the garden. Highly recommend and will return.
Sue
A beautiful cottage, well equipped and comfortable. Jim and Claire were very helpful. Close to the park and ride for York, a must as the city is so busy and for the railway station which we used to visit Leeds and the legendary Victorian market. The hot tub was a great addition especially in the coldest week we've had!

This property is excellent- comfortable, spacious and practical for each of us (2 parents, tech-obsessed 16year old lad and dog). All appliances and facilities are high spec. The host is helpful and highly responsive, supporting our needs- couldnt have asked for more! The location was perfect with easy access to places of interest, restaurants and natural beauty. The village shop was amazing (supplying our unexpected welcome pack from the host) with local and fresh produce. Highly recommended!

Fab holiday house/location. Welcome pack was lovely and house was spotless. Our boys particularly enjoyed the snug/playstation. York is a beautiful city with lots to see and do. House was on a bus route which we used and was great. We had dinner at The Aldwark Arms and The Baytree which were both around a 15 minute drive from the house. Both highly recommend especially The Baytree. Thanks for a lovely holiday.
