The cottage was immaculately clean and tidy. It had all that was needed for a pleasant and comfortable stay near York. The owner was very helpful and was only a few miles away, providing us with an excellent welcome pack and a written information guide for our stay. The cottage was fully equipped with all the needs for a family of six - two showers, three toilets and two televisions. The beds and furniture were comfortable, modern, we thought we were walking into a show house. We went on the bus to York each day, the bus stop being next to the front door. The shop and post office opposite provided our daily needs; we went to the supermarket in Malton once for our week's shopping. We would certainly return for another enjoyable holiday.

Very well presented. Superbly equipped. Excellent welcome pack. Cottage one of best we’ve been in and we’ve been in a lot. Owners go the extra mile for their guests. Secure for dogs, not just enclosed, garden. Shop super handy. Great position for touring around. Had lovely holiday. Would not hesitate to book here again.

The property was clean and well presented, the gift basket and have the bbq equipment and local walks info was great touch. Would be good if had updated information on local businesses, post office opening hours didn't match what was online & queried about food at pub but always got told they where fully booked even though the pub didn't seem busy, advise to book in advance. Tried looking for the local butchers twice and even tried calling them but could locate.
