Fabulous little cottage in a quiet and peaceful location.
Fabulous little cottage in a quiet and peaceful location. The log burner belted out so much heat, we didn’t need the central heating on. The owner was on hand if we had any issues and was so friendly. It's a 3 or 4 minute drive into Kirkbymoorside (we couldn't walk it due to the age of our dog) which is a great little village. Would highly recommend this cottage. (P.S. Helmsley and Pickering are well worth a visit whilst you're staying here)

The perfect idyllic country cottage in a beautiful peaceful location.
The perfect idyllic country cottage in a beautiful peaceful location.The cottage itself is outstanding .Had everything you could possibly need during your stay. The owners provided a welcome basket for our arrival and they were very friendly and welcoming .Always on hand for any queries and were very informative when we expressed our interest in relocating to the area. The location is perfect for a quiet relaxing stay and the local amenities only a few mins drive away. With the log burner lit on the dark evenings whilst sat playing the board games provided it was like being in a movie even more so when we woke up to snow. I would highly recommend everyone to book this cottage as there really is no better place to be.
