  • "We enjoyed our stay at The Farmhouse."

    It is in an excellent position, the bed was comfortable and the house warm and pleasant. However, generally speaking the place is a bit tired, particularly the bathroom and kitchen white goods (the fridge decided to freeze everything on our second night) and could do with some updating. On arrival the central heating did not work and neither did the WiFi. We contacted Shane and the next day both problems were sorted out by himself and BT. The central light in the bathroom did not work but that was not a problem as the mirror light was sufficient.

  • "Great location for walking and lovely quiet environment."

    Very comfortable beds and bedding. But the property requires some maintenance. It is looking very tired. The gardens are very overgrown and no working WI-FI although it was advertised as having it.

  • "Excellent cottage in a beautiful location."

    Slightly hard to find, Google Maps using the postcode take you to a different nearby farm (although there were pretty good directions to the cottage in the welcome email which I hadn’t read); coordinates are (54.3336507, -0.8400776) or what3words ///acids.movie.maps if that helps any future visitors using a sat-nav to direct them. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, wish it had been longer because nobody wanted to leave.

  • "We have stayed here for many years & the views and walks are wonderful from the farm house and we keep coming back ."

    Only suggestion would be to have logs all cut for the log burning stove . The previous owners always had an abundance of logs in the shed all cut . Having said that we will be back again.

  • "I recently stayed at the farmhouse near Pickering, it's a cottage-style house and a very nice relaxing place to stay, Home from Home, with a really nice view of the forest and I saw a lot of wildlife so it was a big win for me."

    a nice and cosy place to stay for sure, The only negative was the bins outside full of waste needed removing, and the property needed a sign erecting hard to find for most people!

  • "There seems to be a problem (possibly intermittent) with the boiler."

    We had no hot water on arrival or next morning, it was slightly lukewarm. There are no instructions or information in the cottage and no number to contact if you have a problem. I went on to Sykes website to look at reviews to see if anyone else had had a problem and whether they resolved it. There were two reports of problems in June. We had to go on line to find instructions for boiler and managed to sort it out. This is not really appropriate, there should be a contact number, even if only so owner can talk you through problem. Otherwise cottage as expected. Location is great for exploring area from east to west etc. Plenty of walks and lovely scenery full of variation.
