Chestnuts at Youlton Lodge

We were very pleased with the accomodation.

It was a lovely, quiet location and the house had alot of space. It was clean and tidy and the owner was friendly and helpful. There were alot of places in the area to visit. We shall return again.

Great farm house.

Beautiful setting. Liz and Charles were fantastic. We had a wonderful stay.

Property was beautifully decorated, spacious and well equipped.

Thank you Liz for the biscuits, milk and bottle of wine. Superb views of the countryside and loved watching all the wildlife. Thank you for our stay Liz, we truly enjoyed our stay will definitely be back

We had a great stay at this property.

Liz was very welcoming and helpful but not intrusive. It is in a semi rural location with great views and very peaceful. Our young granddaughter (2) loved all the animals, especially Winkie whom she hasn't stopped talking About. The gardens and parking are great, unfortunately a chilly wind most days prevented us using the outdoor space except on the first afternoon. The interior was thoughtfully and comfortably furnished and well equipped. Heating was great and hot water plentiful. Shower pressure was very good too! Lots of interesting places to visit that were not too far away.

My partner and I had a wonderful week here.

Amazing property with even more space than depicted in the pictures, incredible living space with bay windows overlooking the garden. Exceptionally peaceful, it was lovely to see the lambs and all the garden birds around the property. Although it was chilly for May, we'd have gladly sat out on the lawn, which was beautiful. Well-situated, well-maintained, and well-furnished with everything you could need. Usually, you find one thing that could have been improved, but honestly, I cannot think of one this time. Recommended for a holiday to explore York and nearby countryside. I hope to return.

We loved staying at Chestnuts at Youlton Lodge.

Perfect for children with a large garden, games and garden activities. All the amenities you would need in the house and very comfortable. Great location - so peaceful with lovely walks from the house. Plenty of nature. Easy to get to York with a park and ride 10 minutes from the house. The owner, Liz, was also very friendly and happy to help if needed. Would highly recommend. Xime and family.

This was our third visit to Chestnuts and we had another wonderful holiday there.

The location is beautiful and a brilliant base for exploring Yorkshire. The house itself has everything we needed and it was so clean and comfortable.

The best cottage we have stayed in by far.

The cottage was immaculate, had all the facilities we needed and the children enjoyed the toys and games. I can't think of anything missing! The location itself is perfect. The view is beautiful and not far from York. The owner Liz was lovely and made sure we had all we needed. We will definitely visit again 100%

This was our second time at Chestnuts, and we’re already planning another visit.

Such a comfortable, spacious house, and everything you could wish for. I must admit we only used the basics, as part of our holiday is eating out, so no cooking. Lovely views across the fields. It was lovely lying in bed and looking at the mist as the sun rose, and seeing a hot air balloon floating across in the distance. Liz provides handsoap in the bathrooms, and a few dishwasher tablets, as well as washing up liquid. So much to see in the area too.

Had a great week at the Chestnuts.

Liz and family are great hosts! Party of 4 adults and 2 young children. Quiet location with lovely views and walks on the doorstep. Village a short walk away with a great village shop and small friendly cafe. Lots to do in the area within easy reach. The accommodation is very spacious and to a high standard. Everything you require is there. The playroom is a bonus and was stocked with toys and games for all ages which the children loved along with the large garden. Thanks to Toby for the tractor ride which they keep talking about.

Just spent a super week at ‘Chestnuts’ with family.

The property is spacious, clean and comfortable and exceptionally equipped. The owners have really thought of everything. The location is lovely and quiet and the property enjoys a very pretty garden in which to relax if the weather is kind. Would definitely recommend.

An exceptional holiday house and location.

Very easy to find with the instructions given and exceeded all expectations. The house and garden is perfect, great size for 6 adults, and facilities all excellent. Very well stocked and Liz and the family, including cats, very welcoming. Beautiful rural location, very peaceful.

We had a wonderful stay at Chestnuts.

A beautiful holiday home, special and so comfortable, a home from home ! Setting is stunning and peaceful. Loved it there ! Enjoyed sitting out in the lovely garden. We had some great days out in York, North Yorks Moors Railway, Harrogate etc.etc. Park & Ride very useful to get into York.

We love this house.

It is clean and well equipped. There's plenty of space to find some place quiet. The views and light are wonderful. Tollerton is a lovely village and located perfectly for trips into York and exploring the surrounding countryside. We've visited twice and are already planning a third trip! Liz and family are lovely hosts.

A lovely location and a beautifully kept holiday cottage.

There is so much to keep adults and children entertained in the surrounding areas. The house was very comfortable and had everything that we needed. Highly recommended and we wouldn’t hesitate to return.

We had a fantastic week at Chestnuts - it's a great location if you are looking to explore York and the surrounding area.

Wind chill made it around minus two but the house was always warm and comfortable. The owner, Liz, had thought of everything and a special shout out to Teddy (a very friendly cat). We hope to be back soon.

We chose this property as our Christmas celebration location for our family.

From the moment we arrived we feel we fell in love with the place. Beautifully presented, in a lovely location, it was all we could ask for. The owner, Liz, was delightful, gave us a warm welcome, and was so helpful. We had a memorable time together as a family.

Liz had thought of everything we could have wanted, including a scoop for ground coffee!

Although we didn’t cook we could have quite easily. It was also immaculately clean. The property is very comfortably furnished, and has lovely views front and back. The Wi-Fi worked, and phone reception, and great TV options to sign into - if you can remember your passwords! Lots of peace and quiet too. We hope to return.

Very comfortably furnished and well equipt property, one of the best we have ever stayed in.

There was plenty of room for the 5 adults in our party and we never felt on top of one another.

As soon as we stepped into the cottage we felt instantly comfortable and at home.

Immaculately clean and comfortable. Extremely comfortable beds and lovely showers. Liz was a highly considerate host. Provided recommendations of local pubs and very kindly offered the children the chance to see the tractors on the farm. Perfect location for access to York and the gorgeous countryside around it. So peaceful and quiet, ideal for relaxing after busy days exploring. I would thoroughly recommend if you’re looking for a calm retreat that’s still close and accessible to explore York and surrounding areas!

The 5-star reviews are much deserved!

We (five adults) thoroughly enjoyed our stay in June 2024. We were blessed by the weather and made good use of the beautiful garden space. We can't think of anything to improve the holiday property. The location is ideal for exploring the wonders of North Yorkshire! The lovely owner, Liz, is very helpful and friendly.

A superb house, in a very quiet location but equally within easy reach of York, Harrogate and the numerous attractions in the area It is exceptionally well equipped and Liz is an excellent host We couldn't recommend this property more highly

I would definitely recommend Chestnuts at Youlton Lodge.

It was fabulous. The location was beautiful and a good central point from which to drive out across the county. The house was well equipped, spotlessly clean, comfortable and beautifully presented. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

One of the best properties we’ve stayed in!

It was very comfortable, well equipped and had a beautiful garden. The owner was very helpful. We would highly recommend this property.

One of the most relaxing, clean and comfortable cottages that we have stayed in.

A real home from home and the owners were very friendly and helpful. We will certainly be visiting again.

Lovely house in a beautiful location.

Very clean and well equipped

Chestnuts is amazing

Lovely comfortable cottage and garden.

Well planned kitchen too.There is lots to do and see with castles and ruins and abbeys etc. and great pub food and cafes in easy reach . the sheltered garden and stroll to the village shop were a treat. Thoroughly recommend .

Lovely cottage in wonderful surroundings.

Everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Would definitely return another time.

We had a great holiday at Chestnuts!

The house is lovely: relaxing decor, clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Liz and her family are friendly and welcoming and our kids loved meeting the animals. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and peaceful. There is a lot to do in the vicinity. We stayed ten days, visiting the city of York several times. Also enjoyed the World of James Herriot, local walks around Tollerton and a brilliant day at Whitby.

The cottage was superb.

Distinguished property with a lovely garden. But we were surrounded by water as floods were surrounding us. Very very limiting as to what we could do. Felt very trapped. The owner was very apologetic but not her fault. So very disappointing. My husband had died three weeks previously so hoping for a relaxing holiday but overall a very stressful week.Glad to come home.

Chestnuts was amazing.

The house was lovely and full of character. Very roomy and comfortable. It was warm, cosy and very clean. Beautiful views front and back with a lovely garden to relax in when the weather permits. Our host was friendly and most helpful. We found everything we needed for a very enjoyable holiday. We will certainly be going back. Thank you very much Liz, for a great holiday.

This is our third time holidaying at Chestnuts - we love it!

Liz, just keep maintaining the high standard that you've already achieved. We welcomed the addition of the bicycle lock and hopefully we will be able to make use of the new outdoor table and chairs when we next visit.

Excellent property, very spacious, recently refurbished throughout.

Liz the host is friendly and welcoming. Great location, very peaceful. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. Thank you for a great stay!

The owner was very welcoming and helpful.

The property was very well maintained, very clean and provided everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay - cleanliness, comfort, peace and tranquility and all the furnishings and equipment we needed. It is in a lovely, peaceful location too. Thank you!

Immaculately presented and spotlessly clean.

Photos don't do the property and garden justice. We had a wonderful week and can highly recommend Chestnuts

Wonderful property and location.

Cottage was immaculate and so much larger than the pictures indicated. Hosts were very friendly.

Excellent location, stunning views of the Vale of York.

First class facilities including a really well maintained and well stocked garden. The owner was very pleasant and helpful. Highly recommended and would certainly stay again

Fantastic cottage, spacious, high spec and very clean.

Beautiful garden to relax in (comfier outdoor seating would be an additional bonus), great views, quiet private lane. Owners next door were very friendly but not intrusive. Perfect cycle storage attached in covered sitting area- route 65 on your doorstep.

Very nice property in quiet position.

Really enjoyed our stay here.

What a delightful property.

Our every need catered for. Lovely location. Sunsets enjoyed in the garden room were to die for ! Hosts welcoming and available on site if needed. Highly recommend Chestnuts at Youlton Lodge.

A beautiful cottage in a stunning and peaceful location.

Exceptionally clean and very well equipped. The sitting room has the most amazing bay window and view of the garden. From the kitchen we watched the antics of their horse! The garden is beautiful and larger than it looks on the photo. The summer house area was perfect for the evening sun. We woke in the morning to the sound of birds and sheep. A great location from which to explore York and some gorgeous Yorkshire towns like Ripon, Thirsk (famous for James Herriot) and Harrogate. The area is great for cycling. Lots of quiet lanes, beautiful villages and views of the North York Moors as a backdrop. The secure bike storage was very much appreciated.

As fellow holiday let owners we found The Chestnuts to be perfect.

Lovely and clean, great location, beautiful garden and summerhouse to enjoy in the peace and quiet, Liz our host was lovely. It's just a short amble into the lovely village with it's great shop. Fantastic part of the Yorkshire with lots to see and do for all ages, our week went so quickly.

What a gem!

Chestnuts was just as Sykes described; clean, comfortable and with everything we needed for our party of five adults. Being on an arable farm it is surrounded by fields and nature. It felt so tranquil waking to the sound of birdsong and lambs bleeting. Lovely Liz was there to meet us and made us very welcome. The gardens are great for gathering around for a chat or a bite to eat. We appreciated the bothy/boot-room where we all changed in and out of our jackets and boots. Tollerton PO has a well stocked shop and deli counter (tasty brownies). We all enjoyed visiting Fountains Abbey, Beningbrough Gardens (very nearby), Ripon and York. Yorkshire has an abundance of coffee shops, pubs and restaurants to choose from. Equally we had everything we needed for preparing meals at Chestnuts. Thank you Liz for supplying such a fabulous home from home.

Owner had left a welcome pack of treats for adults and children.

She visited after a few days to answer any queries and was very helpful with local information. The house was ideal for our party of six, with lots of space and activities provided.There is easy access to York,Dales and NY Moors. Very welcoming and stimulating experience.

A lovely spacious country house style property.

Situated in a rural location with a beautiful garden. Very clean and maintained to a very high standard. The owners are very pleasant and very helpful. I don't think the online photographs of the property do it justice, particularly the lounge. Would be happy to use the property again!

We were extremely happy with the property.

the owner bent over backwards to make sure we had everything we needed including local knowledge and help with tourist ideas. We even met Sky, the horse - very cute Great place, would recommend anytime. Regards Alicia, Victoria & Chris

The owner was very helpful , a lovely very place

This was an excellent property Well appointed and comfortable Highly recommend

What a lovely property.

Everything you could need, very comfortable, and homely. A great location for seeing the sights around York etc. Also really quite and relaxing. Lots to see and do nearby and thoroughly recommend Harrogate and York. Would definitely stay at Chestnuts again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to others.

This is a beautiful cottage, very clean , a beautiful situation looking onto to peaceful countryside.

We had a lovely week with our Canadian relatives who were very impressed by the quality of the accommodation. The small niggle was the heating. We couldnt adjust it and it became cold during the day. One of our party was very old and easily chilled. During summer months this would not be a problem, but as it gets colder some adjustment or supplementary heating is needed.

Chestnuts at Youlton Lodge is a beautiful property in lovely surroundings.

Very clean, comfortable and well equipped, all you could want for a holiday

An amazing house, in an incredible location.

So peaceful and relaxing. House was done to a high standard and perfected located for exploring Yorkshire. We had everything we needed and couldn’t have asked for better. Amazing time had by all!

Absolutely stunning cottage.

It had everything we needed and was in the perfect location. We would not hesitate to book again.

We were so pleased to arrive to find such a beautiful, clean and well equipped property with lovely views over the farm and surrounding countryside.

Very quiet and peaceful with lovely walks. The Designer Outlet in York is worth a visit and the Forbidden Corner in Leyburn was a great day out with the kids. We also travelled to Whitby, Robin Hood's Bay, Scarborough water park and the beautiful Aysgarth Falls. We stayed for a week at Youlton Lodge and had a great time, just wish we could have stayed longer! Many thanks for a lovely stay!

It was Cox a lovely house Very clean Excellent views and location I perfect cottage
