Me and my family loved our stay in this lovely little place, we all felt right at home. It was clean and all the communication that was needed.

10.0 / 10.0

This was the perfect place for us to be away from the city of York, but close enough to enjoy our drive in. The area itself is very peaceful, and the cottage was well stocked with everything we needed! The little touches were much appreciated as well! Thank you so much. We would highly recommend the cottage to anyone.

We loved the stay at the cottage, it has everything you need and it's really quiet, and the location is great as well. The beds are nice and comfy and the fold out bed is comfy as well, slept great! You have everything you would need within a 10 minute drive, and the local pubs are great as well. I was lucky to be in the local pub when Andy and Sally came in, they made me very welcome and introduced me to some friends and it was a really nice relaxed night, so thanks to them both, it was really nice and friendly. We stayed here as we needed to be in the local area for personal reasons, but I would have easily stayed another week if I could have! Few things to mention; Go to the Boot & Shoe pub, about 1 minute walk away, lovely pub, also drive 10 minutes to The Fenton Flyer, again lovely old fashioned pub, next door to the Fenton Flyer is a place called The Grill, does cracking pizzas and kebabs / burgers, loved it!! All in all we had a great 5 days here, it was just what we needed and it is very quiet and peaceful.

A pleasant cottage in North Yorkshire

A pleasant cottage in North Yorkshire

We found the cottage well suited for a self catering holiday, and the sitting room and kitchen were of a good size. We didn`t cook while we were there although the kitchen had ample cooking facilities. A good sized lawned garden at the rear with some seating. Apple orchard just by and also a secret garden at the end. Quite an historic area, and plenty of villages and countryside. Easy access to York etc.

Cosy, clean and warm. The cottage was well equipped and served us very well for the 3 nights we were there. We took advantage of the large pretty garden that was available to us when more of our family came to visit us for the day. Andy the owner allowed us to use his own garden furniture so we could enjoy eating together at lunch time with our family, which was very kind.

Beautiful holiday in Yorkshire, perfect property

Beautiful holiday in Yorkshire, perfect property

We have just had the most wonderful week staying at the cottage. Its a really lovely upside down cottage with the living space upstairs, but it works so well. There was five of us and we all slept like babies. The garden is a great space. For us we travelled somewhere different every day to see as much of Yorkshire as we could and this was a perfect base. The local pub the Boot and Shoe was excellent, the food was outstanding. Just 2 miles away in Sherburn in Elmet has a really wide range of take away including Fish and Chips, Indian, Chinese, Pizza, we tried them all and they were excellent. Also there are plenty of shops there for essentials. I would highly recommend this property.

This is a lovely place to stay Everything and more than you would need for a self-catering holiday. So clean and fresh. The host was so welcoming and I felt nothing would be too much trouble. We had a wonderful time I can not recommend this cottage enough. I was unsure if I would get my mother home again, she loved it so much. A very big thank you from us .

Friends Staycation

Friends Staycation

We were a group of friends looking for a social house on the outskirts of York. The property was only a twenty min walk from the train station and a really easy to get into the city centre. The house has a lovely open plan lounge and kitchen which is perfect for a group of friends. There is only one bedroom but it’s very spacious and the beds were extremely comfortable. We had a lovely few days and would highly recommend.

We were so lucky with the weather and the bedroom downstairs remained cool so we slept really well . Plenty of space in the cottage and the kitchen was very well equipped. Barkston Ash is a lovely village and Sally and Andy were friendly, helpful owners ….. we would love to return .

Wonderful hosts. The cottage was really lovely and spacious. I hadn't realised a garden was available which was much appreciated with the lovely weather. The cottage is located in a quiet village which is only 25 minute drive from York. Sally was so welcoming and on hand for any enquiries. Highly recommend staying here.

Only one problem

Only one problem

We didn’t get to stay in the property for the given dates, not due to the host but due to covid. The host was lovely about the whole thing thankfully. Due to the situation we were devastated we didn’t get to stay. The one thing I would say is that it was quite hard to find and we ended up on someone’s private land trying to find it, but he directed us and we found it eventually.

Thank you for having us. We have had such a beautiful weekend away for our friends birthday. 5 of us all thoroughly enjoyed it. The cottage is very spacious and had everything we needed for our weekend away. The owners were so friendly and couldn’t help us enough. Lovely location in a rural environment but still easy access to the local pubs and shops. We all look forward to coming back again and have already recommended it to others.

Barkston Ash

Barkston Ash

It’s a lovely little cottage, well away from the beaten track, ideal for a few days away from the crowds. Very handy for exploring York, Leeds, North York Moors and The Dales - but you definitely need a car to get about. The Boot and Shoe pub, a lovely local serving fine pub grub, is literally just round the corner and was very welcoming and friendly. We will be back!
