Guests appreciate the well-equipped facilities, the farm's animal encounters, and the property's location as a base for exploring Yorkshire. While there is a mention of a minor issue with a shower plughole and a personal preference for a warmer welcome, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many guests planning to return.
Guests that stayed at this property said
The cottage is consistently described as spotlessly clean, with only one mention of a temporary issue with a shower plughole that was resolved. The attention to cleanliness, especially during COVID-19, is commended.
The location is praised for being a good base for exploring Yorkshire and the North East Coast, with mentions of lovely areas for walks and proximity to local attractions. One review mentioned muddy parking after rain, but this seems to be a minor concern.
Comfort is generally rated highly, with the property described as home from home and well-equipped. There is a single mention of an uncomfortable bed for taller individuals and a preference for a warmer, more personal welcome.
Facilities are well-regarded, with guests appreciating the well-decorated and equipped property. There are mentions of a small fridge and a misunderstanding about a games room, but overall, the facilities meet guests' needs.
Guests note the thoughtfulness of the owner and the welcome pack provided. While gifts such as fresh eggs are mentioned, it is noted that these are delightful surprises and not guaranteed amenities.

Stewart
It is a lovely area. The directions to the property are very accurate. The facilities were like a home- useful kitchen equipment. There was a welcome pack with fresh milk, tea and coffee and lots of menus and activity leaflets. The beds are very comfortable and the upside down layout makes it a change from most properties. We really enjoyed our stay.

Spacious accommodation and very comfortable. My boys (7 & 9) loved the "upside down" layout. Our hosts were very friendly and welcoming. Thanks for a lovely stay.
