Summary: We stayed as a family of 3 over the New Year period, and the cottage was everything we needed. For what we paid for 7 nights, I would say it was good value for money. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook family meals, and was great having a dishwasher and washing machine to use. The living room was very cosy, and having the wood burner was a brilliant bonus. The livingroom was decorated lovely for Christmas and added that extra cosy feel. The bedrooms were of good size, and the beds were comfortable. Plenty clothing storage space too. There was no tv in the bedroom, which disappointed our teenage son as he had to share the living room tv with us, so a small tv in the single room would be a brilliant addition for families. The bathroom was ok, shower could be a bit troublesome but once we worked out how to keep the pressure on, we had no issues. The cottage is a great base for exploring York and other villages by car, however nothing is really within walking distance. There is a village inn about 2 mins walk from the cottage, however we did not visit, and a stunning church which is worth visiting. Overall, a lovely stay and would return.
