Michael
Ploughman's Rigg is faultless - even if you wanted to be really picky, you couldn't report a negative about this cottage. The hosts have paid exceptional attention to detail and consideration for the guest, ensuring it has been furnished to a very high standard and contains all of the useful things you need on a home-from-home stay - particularly in the kitchen, and the welcome gifts and cooking essentials. The cottage was impeccably clean, spacious and luxuriously comfortable. The hosts have even penned-off a 'personal' garden area outside of the backdoor to allow dogs to run freely and ensure they don't escape. The cottage is situated on a quiet working farm a short drive along their farm track. It is idyllically quiet and benefits from views across the sheep fields of North Yorkshire and even across to York on a bright day. Despite being hidden away in the Yorkshire countryside, there is very good mobile phone, WiFi and television reception. The eco-sustainability of these cottages is notable and should be celebrated. We would highly recommend Ploughman's Rigg, and we would without hesitation come to stay again.

The property was spacious and really comfortable. Everything in the cottage was quality and well maintained. Wonderful views through the bi-fold windows.
