Spacious beautiful, rooms amazing. Had a couple of really good meals at the Half Moon pub across the way, the staff were really friendly. Would really recommend this cottage.
Amanda
So clean, comfortable, lots of extra touches. We had a really relaxing time. Great location for visiting York centre and also the McArthur Glen Outlet. We met Claire the host on arrival, she was so kind and helpful too... We visited the 'Half Moon' pub for an evening meal just across the road. Service was fantastic, everyone extremely friendly and the food was outstanding. All in all our group decided the best house we've stayed in and we'll definitely be back. Thank you for just the most perfect weekend! Highly recommend. Five stars!!!!
