Reviews

The cottage is typically English, set in a pretty village, in a beautiful part of Yorkshire. The bedrooms are spacious enough for our party of three adults and two small children and the bathroom and en-suite shower room have recently been modernized. Downstairs the lounge, dining room and kitchen are more traditional with adequate modern facilities. The outside patio is great for alfresco dining and the garden and lawn provide a peaceful environment.
