    Thank you for your feed back and lovely to meet you both . The pricing with the Booking agent is very fair and The Hideaway has been with them for several years . The property is not advertised anywhere else only with Sykes and their asssociate Booking .Com I do try and offer my guests who return to the property and wish to book direct with me a discount for their loyalty and re booking . The contact details for the property are only with the Agent to book The Hideaway or from me personally after a first visit if my guests wish to book direct with me . Trust that explains the booking process Thank you Property Owner

  • "Hideaway is quite unique, quirky, and wonderful, as is the owner."

    A warm welcome Georgina met us on arrival, and explained the layout. Everything is near, shops, cafes “also unusual “ , and a park. Easy to unload the car outside then use the car park practically next door. ‘You have to pay, yet it’s cheap’ . I go away to study and this place facilitated influence. I would study on an evening down stairs in the shop which was I interesting. Clean comfortable bed, cosy atmosphere in the home. If your looking to have an unusual adventure, the hideaway offers such an experience. Will return.

  • "Sweet and beautiful little cottage."

    Met by Georgina, the lovely owner and given a very warm welcome. Georgina showed us around the cottage and explained how to use the appliances etc. The surprise was the accommodation is incorporated into and above a sweet little vintage shop which remains closed whilst guests are staying and so we were allowed to use the large table and dining chairs in the shop, this is also where the kitchenette is situated. The cottage is really clean, beautifully and tastefully decorated, warm and secure. The one and only downside is there are only two wooden dining chairs upstairs with which to relax on other than stretching out on the bed (which is very comfortable). Georgina left us a Welcome pack along with a large bowl of fruit and a cake. She also gave us a very generous gift. I highly recommend this cosy, delightful little cottage and the friendliness and generosity of the owner, Georgina.

    Perfectly placed in the centre of delightful Boroughbridge, booking-in was straightforward and the owner gave us a comprehensive tour of the facilities. A TV has been added since the photos were taken. The heating was more than adequate, easy to adjust and kept us snug in very chilly weather. The only addition we would make would be a microwave.

    The owner has gone to great trouble to successfully fit everything into a very small space. There is a large free car park close by, interesting and quirky shops, the bed is very comfortable and the whole place immaculate. It is a perfect example of what can be achieved in a very small space. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would happily re-book. Warmly recommended..
