  It is comfortable and has everything you need. It is set in a quiet and peaceful area and had a pretty, private garden, which our dog loved. The cottage was in an ideal place for visiting family in York; only 20 minutes away. There are many places of interest to visit in the area.

• "Lovely cottage and the perfect place for a getaway."

  Handy for local shops and a couple of local pubs that do food. The cottage is a home from home and has everything you could need, while being very comfortable. When we were in the cottage we spent the majority of the time with the French doors open listening and watching the birds hopping around in the trees in the orchard. Rose is a very welcoming host and full of helpful information for your stay. Would definitely recommend.

• "The owners were very friendly although we saw little of them,welcome package was just a small bottle of milk 2 tea bags and some flowers."

  I would say the place could do with updating,particularly the bed which was very uncomfortable,it felt like 2 small mattresses put together,also the very small wardrobe was not big enough,it was more like a cupboard,so a bigger wardrobe is needed.also my wife and i are both age 81 and we found the stairs far to steep,i had to keep an eye on the wife each time she wanted to use them.another handrail would have helped.in my opinion the stairs are not suitable for the aged or infirm,one other thing needed was a light outside the door as its difficult to see the key safe numbers,we had to resort to useing our mobile phone lights.the outside light did not work and we were told that this was an ongoing problem

  The only one thing was the poor performance of the TV. It didn’t inconvenience us too much but anyone staying in the winter with the dark nights might find it a drawback.

• "The Studio is a comfortable, well equipped property."

  It is located close to York city centre which worked well for us. We were welcomed by the owners with some cake, tea bags and milk which was a nice touch. The garden is fairly large however it had the property's water treatment right in the middle of it which did spoil it a bit. The car parking area was gated which meant the car was safe and off of the fairly busy country lane. This property was good value for money and I would recommend it to others with dogs who just want a bolt hole to use whilst visiting York and the surrounding area.
