Lovely location .just as described relly enjoyed stay

Had a lovely weekend at this cottage for my partner’s birthday. Hot tub was gorgeous, even better in the rain. House was beautiful and having the chickens running around outside was fabulous. Marisa was the perfect host. Answered questions quickly and was very accommodating. Would definitely recommend a stay in this lovely cottage.

It's a lovely cottage, quaint and old-fashioned with nice, comfy beds, and Heath was a charming and helpful host. I found the steps down to the garden very steep and had to carry my two elderly dogs down. I also hadn't realized that it wasn't enclosed either, so the dogs couldn't be left (my fault, I should have asked). I was woken very early with the light coming through the blinds, but I mentioned that to Heath, so that may have been remedied. Overall though, it's a great place to stay, with the centre only a few minutes walk away There was plenty to do in the area with lots of restaurants to choose from (we liked Harveys). We did a nice circular walk (the first part was quite steep on the road, Hill Lane) through the countryside to the Royal Oak at Upperthong and then back through the woods. Although the pub itself didn't open until 4, the cafe was open, doing very nice snacks and very friendly personnel. The churchyard is also worth a visit for fans of Last of the Summer Wine.

We absolutely loved our stay at Debbie and Stephen's beautiful cottage. It's set right in the middle of the Yorkshire countryside with easy access to the A19 and views of the Kilburn White Horse from the bed! They also have a woodland on their property which our dog frolicked in like a land dolphin and completely adored. The cottage was so warm and cosy, exactly what you need to reset the batteries. Thank you for a wonderful stay, we'll be back!

Beautiful house in lovely surroundings. great decor ans very clean. well equipped with everything one needs and great welcome package. would recommend.

What a fantastic little cottage, perfect for a weekend away. Lovely hosts and perfect location for exploring Yorkshire, we would definitely recommend and hope to visit again sometime.

A fabulous weekend at the Hayloft. Beautiful property with everything thought of, even down to toys for the dogs. Would definitely go again and would highly recommend. Thank you Karen and Andy 😀

Beautiful house very spacious and very well equipped, great hot tub which was very easy to use. Lovely outside seating area. Greg was an excellent host, keeping in contact when needed. Would certainly recommend his home as a welcoming place.

If you like Quiet, clean, comfortable, walks, good village pub, every where an easy drive from Scotton….You will love this cottage. We had a lovely relaxing time here our Whippet loved it also. Holly & Alastair are excellent hosts, we would definitely recommend staying here.

We absolutely loved our stay. The cottage was beautifully decorated and well equipped, making us feel right at home. The area and scenery were beautiful, making for the perfect relaxing stay.

3 Railway Cottage is a fantastic base to explore the amazing beauty of North Yorkshire. The cottage is located a 20 minute walk from the centre of Pickering but is in a really quiet and private location. The only exception of course is the opportunity to wave at the heritage railway trains that pass at the back of the cottage a few times a day which is really amazing, especially if you wave from the comfort of the hot tub! I can’t recommend this location highly enough, it is a really comfortable and well equipped cottage in a fantastic location - what more could you ask for?

Amazing host who went above and beyond by decorating the place with happy birthday banners and balloons for my Mums stay for her 60th birthday. The place has so much character and is in such a perfect location

We had a lovely weekend the games room is a perfect touch. A very well equipped cottage. the books and wide selection of board games is a lovely touch. Hot tub is a really good size. The hosts are welcoming and on hand. The cottage has everything you need for a relaxing stay.

what an absolutely amazing place to visit, with one of the moat picturesque views of the Yorkshire Dale anyone could wish from right in the backgarden. the cottage is spotless and has everything you could want for a break away.

Lovely cottage in a great location. Walking the surrounding area from the house was great and very near to a pub and tearoom which both served great food. The hot tub was an added bonus!

Excellent stay in Pickering, the house is exactly as described and more! Very well equipped and a real home from home. It is on one of the main roads but as others have said the thoughtful ear plugs made all the difference and we had no problem finding parking every day. This is a fantastic base for exploring the local area. Highly recommended

We had a lovely stay in Knaresborough! The town is so beautiful and peaceful. The house was comfortable and cosy with everything we needed. Parking nearby was easy and cheap. Lots to do in the surrounding area ... consider visiting Bolton Abbey and Valley-of-desolation if you have a car.

Absolutely lovely. Stunning place to stay both inside and out. Joanna’s personal touches made it even more incredible, we were welcomed with fresh bread, butter, cheese, tea, coffee, crisps, crackers, wine, milk and even little chocolates in the bedroom! Fresh flowers were found throughout which really added to the atmosphere. Bed was super comfy, the bath was a dream and the stove was a lovely feature to have. We couldn’t recommend this place enough.

As always, we had a wonderful stay at the Granary. Duncan and Adrian are the best hosts, and there is nowhere more idyllic and beautiful than lovely Levisham. Thanks again for having us- we will be back!

We’ve had a fantastic few days at The Piglets, the barn conversation is top notch and everything is to the highest standard. Nip is a super host greeted us on arrival and is so friendly and helpful. The location is perfect short distance in to York yet super peaceful. Fantastic for cycling. We will definitely be back. Thank you

Had such a lovely stay in this very cute cottage in a very cute village 😍 this is the first Airbnb I have ever booked and it did not disappoint! Lizzie was an excellent host and very quick with responding to messages. She made us feel very welcome and at home and left us a welcome basket with some goodies to help settle us in and celebrate my boyfriends 30th birthday ❤️ The cottage was super clean and had everything we needed for a long weekend. The way the cottage has been renovated and decorated was very in keeping with its 18th century history. It was a very relaxing weekend and the cottage is perfect if you are looking for a quiet and beautiful area to stay in. Thank you Lizzie for helping us create some lovely memories ☺️

We have stayed at Herbert Cottage, before and was keen to return as it is fabulous! The cottage is decorated and furnished to an exceptional standard. Quality linens and towels plus quality kitchen equipment (love the mugs!) Everything you could possibly need was provided for. Elaine, the housekeeper, is an absolute gem. SO friendly and welcoming. The cottage was immaculately cleaned and smelled divine. Nothing was too much trouble. Its like meeting an old friend. The peace and tranquility suits us. Amazing sunsets to the gentle sound of the local cricket team. The local pub, The Blacksmith's Arms, is very good. They also do takeaways if you prefer. So much to do in the area. Plan to return

Thank you for having us, we loved the peaceful location of your cottage, the delicious lemon cake and stunning views. The dog field was perfect for my spaniel, she loved racing around the paths and through the long grass, it was also the ideal location for us to enjoy a drink and a bit of reading in the sun. We got up for the sunrise, as times had kindly been provided by Jacqui, and it was a stunning morning where we enjoyed our coffee outside and spent the time with hundreds of birds including woodpeckers, swallows and bull finches flying around. The cottage itself was spotlessly clean and both hosts were welcoming, both in person and on email.
