Guests say
The Studio in York is a well-received holiday cottage, praised for its cleanliness, comfortable setting, and thoughtful touches like fresh flowers and cake. Guests appreciate the secure, dog-friendly garden and the property's proximity to York and local amenities. While some guests noted the location requires a car, the overall sentiment is positive with many looking forward to returning.
Guests consistently mention the cleanliness of the cottage, describing it as 'very clean' and 'extremely clean', indicating high standards of hygiene and upkeep.
The location is generally appreciated for its rural setting and proximity to York, though some guests noted the need for a car to access shops and attractions, which slightly impacts the convenience factor.
Many reviews highlight the comfort of the cottage, mentioning a 'comfortable base', 'cosy cottage', and 'lovely private garden'. A few concerns about the bed and steep stairs suggest room for improvement for some guests.
While guests are pleased with the overall facilities, mentioning a well-equipped kitchen and secure garden, there is insufficient detail in the reviews to accurately score the maintenance aspect, such as the functionality of the TV and outdoor lighting.
The owners' thoughtfulness is frequently commended, with mentions of welcome gestures like cake, flowers, and milk. However, as these gifts are not guaranteed for every stay, they are a delightful bonus rather than an expectation.

It is comfortable and has everything you need. It is set in a quiet and peaceful area and had a pretty, private garden, which our dog loved. The cottage was in an ideal place for visiting family in York; only 20 minutes away. There are many places of interest to visit in the area.
