• "Definitely the nicest cottage we have stayed in."

  It’s just perfect. We shared a relaxing few days with friends who loved the cottage and surrounding countryside as much as we did. The large well equipped kitchen diner was ideal for sociable meals and the two sofa lounge perfect for a bit of TV afterwards. The beds are really really comfy too!

• "Booked the cottage for a family wedding in the area and it did not disappoint."

  Outstanding 5 star accommodation, couldn’t fault a thing. Warm and welcoming and fitted out to a high standard. Two big bedrooms perfect for two couples but would be just as perfect for a family of four. Excellent value for money. Jo was a wonderful host , on hand if needed but not intrusive even letting us stay in the cottage longer on our last day while we waited for the AA to come and mend the car. Highly recommend and hope to return one day

  The property is super clean and comfortable, with everything you could need. Peaceful location but near to local amenities - and plenty of places to visit without going too far if you don’t want to.

  The Grooms Cottage is all and more besides what is advertised. Immaculately presented, so clean and cosy. The owner is so knowledgeable and so lovely to talk to. We visited many places of interest to us, and, we will definitely return, the sooner the better. Thanks to Jo. X

• "Very well appointed and comfortable property, far enough into the countryside to be away but still close enough to to the things you need such as groceries, restaurants, takeaways, pubs etc."

  Plenty of space and all the facilities you need for a holiday home. A great base to use for exploring East Yorkshire and the Coast.

• "We have just returned from a family 4 day break at Groom's cottage."

  We had contacted Jo prior to our arrival and it was obvious from her texts that she was very welcoming. Gave advice of local supermarket and places to eat out which was a great help. On our arrival we were thrilled to see that what was shown online was actually correct. The cottage was beautiful and well maintained. It was very obvious that ALOT of work had gone into the cottage and it was decorated to a very high standard. Welcome pack was a lovely touch. The cottage is off the main road but is exactly what you need after a busy day out. We loved on an evening watching the hares and rabbits run about, an owl on one occasion and some bats. We would recommend anyone to choose this cottage. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Yorkshire and a big part of this was our base to relax in.

  Everything was pristine, and it was such a lovely layout. The kitchen was a dream and it had everything we needed to cook all our meals (which is often not the case!) The TV in every room was certainly a nice surprise, it all felt so luxurious from the bedding to the bathrooms and the automatic light in the walk in wardrobe in the master bedroom was fabulous! The box of toys for our baby to play with for the week was such a nice touch and very useful!! Thank you so much, we will be back!

• "We stayed in this property for 4 nights."

  The property is very comfortable, well equipped, in immaculate condition and very clean. The owner was very friendly and helpful and there is ample parking. The nearest village, with a pub and cafe is a 5 minute drive away (40 minute walk) along a narrow single track road and Market Weighton is another 5 minutes drive where you will find a Tesco and numerous pubs, restaurants and take aways. It's a good base to explore East Yorkshire, less than an hour to the coast and York is close by too. Overall I would thoroughly recommend this property.

• "This is a nice comfortable cottage with hotel standard bathrooms."

  There are a couple things not mentioned in the given information about the accommodation, firstly it is beside a country road with a cars, lorries and farm vehicles use, secondly and very much more important, the water for cottage is from a bore hole, those who have any vulnerability need to be aware. This information is given in pack once you have arrived which was a bit late for my husband and I, we were unwell for couple days. The owner was very apologetic and assured us water was treated and filtered. We were just unlucky, so go with plenty of bottled water. Lovely friendly owners with three very quiet young children rarely seen or heard.

  This is by far the best accommodation my husband and I have ever stayed in, and we have been self-catering for many years. Everthing was perfect, from the well equipped kitchen - such high quality fixtures and utensils - to the wonderfully comfortable beds. The sheets and pillows are better than I have at home! The en-suite shower rooms also exceeded expectation, again with fitxures of the highest quality. A very quiet location within easy reach of many villages, towns and cities. And the host Joanna was very pleasant and helpful. All in all a 5*+ cottage, which I cannot recommend highly enough. Find an excuse to stay there and you won't want to go home.

  It was very warm, comfortable and well equipped, as well as the provision of good quality bed linen and thick towels such as you would expect in a top class hotel. We really didn't want to leave! Unfortunately we missed out on booking this cottage for the Christmas week as well and had to move on to another cottage. This reinforced just how good The Groom's Cottage is and it was extremely hard not to make comparisons. We look forward to returning.

  We stayed for a week and felt very comfortable, everything was spotless and had all the facilities we needed including lots of extras in the kitchen cupboards such as baking trays, cheese grater and spare tea towel. It had an easy to use washing machine which was great for us being able to pack clean clothes to take back instead of having to do it once home. Our beds were excellent and we enjoyed being able to watch TV in bed early morning with our toddler like we do at home. The owners were available if needed and were very welcoming with 2 very friendly dogs who came to say hello to my little girl which she loved. Its located on their working farm but they didn't wake us or disturb us in any way it was generally very peaceful and lovely to hear the birds singing. The cottage is located a short car journey from Market Weighton which had several take aways and a little supermarket which we used and the local pub in Goodmanham was lovely for a couple of drinks and peaceful in their garden to.the side which had a little children's area. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend, thanks for making our stay so comfortable and also our little welcome pack which was very thoughtful

  Thank you so much for your lovely comments and we look forward to welcoming you back! Property Owner
