I stayed in the Cottage Garden View for three nights. The parking on the drive outside the cottage was easy. The TV and WiFi worked very well. The kitchen included many pots and pans. A dishwasher and a washing machine were there too.
The walls were thin. I could hear other guests.

Really good Stay in a Charming Cottage
ample spacenatural lightpowerful showeroat-based options
The Ryedale suite offered ample space and natural light, thanks to dual-aspect windows. The shower was powerful. Breakfast included granola, yoghurt, and berries. Wholemeal toast was available. I appreciated that the host accommodated dietary requests with oat-based options.
The wifi signal was surprisingly weak in certain areas of the cottage, though not a huge issue

I stayed in the Standard Double Room. The location was convenient for exploring the nearby areas and it was close to the rail station. The room had ample storage and a desk. The breakfast selection included many options.
My room faced the street, and I heard some noise at night. The walls are thin! The bed was not very comfortable. It was too firm for my liking. I did not sleep well.

The location is quiet. It is also near the railway station for services into York. The cottage was clean, tidy, and well-appointed. I really liked the direct access to my room, it didn't disturb anyone in the main house.
