  The property is in an excellent location for touring the North York Moors and is surrounded with an endless selection of great places to eat within a short driving distance of the cottage. The property is very well appointed with everything that’s needed to make for a comfortable stay. The cottage is dog friendly with a secure back garden.

• "A very comfortable well equiped cottage in an excellent location for exploring the many attractions North Yorkshire has to offer."

  The owners live next door & greeted us personally when we arrived. They gave us some dog food to tide us over as I had forgotten to pack it which was great as the shops were closed by the time we had arrived on Friday evening.

• "The cottage is perfect for a group of friends to enjoy the countryside around Ampleforth."

  The single beds meant we could have a bed each and 3 bathrooms meant no queues! The cottage is really well maintained, spotlessly clean and comfortable. We had everything we needed in the kitchen and the log burner made the living room a very cosy place in which to spend the evening. The owner was very welcoming and helpful. We would like to return in the warmer months when we can make use of the pretty back garden.

• "This was our second visit to the property."

  We so enjoyed it the first time we came again! We find the location ideal for touring around the North York Moors and taking our dog for long and short walks. There's a plentiful supply of good eating pubs nearby, all of which are top quality and very friendly. The local market town of Helmsley has a good variety of shops. The cottage is very well appointed and has everything required for a comfortable stay. The owner, Lucy, has a good knowledge of the surrounding area and is very helpful and friendly. Highly recommended.

• "This was our second stay and the cottage was as lovely as we remembered."

  Comfortable lounge and beds, lovely kitchen and the outside space was very welcome, both for our dog and for us because it was unusually warm for Yorkshire in September! Location is great, easy to get to main roads for the moors and the coast. Extra bonus for me as a tall person is that, apart from the door between kitchen and lounge I could walk through the whole cottage not bent double! Very unusual for a stay in a cottage. Owners are very friendly and available to help if needed. Only went to White Swan in the village. Excellent and very friendly. Would definitely book here again.

• "We had a great stay at Ford end."

  Beautiful cottage with everything we needed. We loved the peaceful location. It was a great base to explore all that yorkshire has to offer. We had a wonderful meal in the white swan just a couple of minutes walk away. My only suggestion would maybe be some blanket/throws to hand for when the chilly evenings start to draw in. Lucy was to hand if we needed her and kindly left some tea, dishwasher tablets etc. thankyou Lucy

  Hi Jodie, Thanks so much for your lovely review. Thank you also for your suggestion of throws, which we couldn’t have during covid times, but perhaps people are happy with them now. Thank you again for the suggestion. It was good to meet you and I hope we may see you again. Lucy Property Owner

• "Ford End Cottage is beautifully refurbished and extremely comfortable."

  All facilities are of the highest standard and with a large lounge, ample kitchen, three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a small secluded garden it was everything that we required of a North Yorks Moors base. Ampleforth itself is a charming village with two pubs serving food. The owners Lucy and Will are friendly and very helpful and all communications were clear and concise. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would return.

• "A lovely comfortable, well equipped holiday home."

  So many places to visit on the doorstep and the Village pubs, cafe and shop are all very good. The owners are keen for visiting dogs not to go upstairs (and rightly so!) but with two staircases, one off of the living room, this could prove difficult for some. The court yard garden is quite small and larger dogs may not be best catered for. However with so many wonderful walks from your doorstep it really isn’t an issue. Would we return - most certainly. Thank you Lucy and Will for providing an excellent holiday home and for your help in exploring a new area for us.

  I would thoroughly recommend a stay at Forge End Cottage. The cottage is to a very high standard and very spacious, the private patio garden is also lovely and especially good if you have a dog. It is set in a beautiful location, and surrounded by stunning views with it being only a short drive from Helmsley. We all enjoyed our stay and would definitely return to this stunning cottage.

  The house is tastefully furnished and extremely comfortable and had everything we needed (and more!). Lucy (the owner) popped by to welcome us and was on hand if we had any issues - of which we had none! The house is at the end of the village and very easy to find. The village has a shop and two pubs, one of which we ate in twice and the food was excellent. If you are looking for a property that is within easy reach of everything then this is probably it. So much to see and do within about a 30 minute drive. We loved our holiday and hopefully we will return! Thank you Lucy (and family) for a wonderful stay!

It is in a lovely village with 2 pubs. The beds are comfortable and the quality of the linen and towels were fabulous. Please note that you cannot control your own heating which was a new one for us. It is set by the host but Lucy was brilliant on accommodating our needs. I can definitely recommend this place.

  We even got to sit in the small sunny garden this time! The views from all the upstairs windows were even better as it's late spring, so all the trees are in leaf. Probably the best view was from the en-suite bathroom as we could see horses in the field beyond the cottage. We received another very warm welcome from Lucy. She is such a brilliant, friendly and responsive host and she really does go the extra mile for her guests. We noticed a couple of people in earlier reviews requested more hanging space in 2 bedrooms and the ability to park a 2nd car on the property and she had already sorted it all out. Lucy asked us to let her know during our stay if anything could be improved but we found the cottage still exceeds our expectations in every way. Lucy is a photographer and it was a lovely touch that she has put a copy of her photography book of Ampleforth in the cottage for guests to enjoy. It is a love letter to the village and its villagers and made for a lovely personal touch. We will be back, thank you, Lucy and Will!

  The cottage is situated peacefully away from the road going through Ampleforth which meant that we slept so well being gently woken by the birds singing and the spring sunshine. Ampleforth is a charming, peaceful village with good amenities. It was wonderful to arrive after a long journey and find that the kitchen was stocked with bread, milk, tea, coffee and sugar. The cottage is very cosy and immaculate with a modern kitchen stocked with everything that you could possibly need. The kitchen opens into a lovely courtyard garden which was a wonderful sun trap and totally secluded. Lucy is a fantastic host – nothing is too much trouble. I hope we have the opportunity to stay again and would heartily recommend this cottage.

  The cottage is for 6 people so it’s highly likely there will be more that one car. One of the reasons we booked this cottage was for off road parking. Should state off road parking for one car only.

  Dear Anne, Thank you very much for your message and for bringing this to my attention. I have requested a listing amendment to clarify that there is off-road parking available for two cars at Ford End Cottage. If you recall this is ideally side by side, but it can now also be one behind another, whatever is most convenient for guests. With best wishes and my thanks again, Lucy Property Owner

  The cottage is a Tardis (luckily no daleks) and much more spacious than we expected. Everything is tasteful and immaculately presented. It turned cold during our stay but the cottage was lovely, bright and warm. Beautiful country views from all 3 bedrooms. The beds are high quality and the village is very quiet, we slept like logs. There are 2 full bathrooms upstairs plus a shower room downstairs. The website doesn’t show the large entrance hall where you can leave all your shoes and coats. Kitchen very well equipped and there was tea, milk, coffee and bread on arrival plus a good supply of logs, you can buy more off the owner next door. We could park 2nd car easily on the road outside. Ampleforth itself is very pretty with 2 friendly pubs serving excellent food, a great coffee shop plus a small, well stocked village shop. All are on the same road as the cottage within 5 minutes walk. We can’t give 6 stars sadly so 5/5 will have to suffice! We will be back, a fantastic stay thank you.
