Host & Stay - Dale End

We liked the central location. The house is tastefully decorated in a contemporary style and it was very clean. The living area is comfortable; the kitchen offered everything we needed for our stay – although we didn’t cook any meals during our visit. The bedrooms are lovely. The beds are super-kingsize ( with the option to separate to 2 large singles) and very comfortable. Plenty of storage, a dressing table mirror, hanging space and a hairdryer are provided in each room. It was great to have separate bathrooms and made life a lot easier. Both are modern, clean with large, fresh bathsheets provided. The stairs leading to the upstairs bedrooms/bathrooms are quite steep and narrow and there’s no downstairs toilet, so for those with mobility issues it might cause a problem, but we’re all in our 70s and had no problem with access. Kirkbymoorside is a lovely small town with a couple of small supermarkets, a bakery, butcher and pubs ; we would recommend The Lemon Tree fish and chip shop and, if you are staying over the weekend, the Carvery at Kirkbymoorside Golf Club is a must for Sunday lunch!

We would have appreciated internet provision.

The property was spotless and well-equipped. The beds were exceptionally comfortable and huge. The stand-alone shower was very good and it had a good heating system.

There were only two things where we felt improvement could have been made. The first was a more comfortable sofa as the one provided wasn't that good and a mirror downstairs would have been much appreciated.

Very comfortable and clean. Beds were excellent as were the showers. Linen and towels very good.

No WiFi was disappointing. As we are all over 70 a handle over the bath would have been good to aid standing for the shower.

The beds were very comfortable and the decor was very homely

Could do with a more comfortable sofa/more seating in the living room but still was great either way.

Great location, nice and cosy

Kitchen could be slightly better equipped with cooking utensils - not too much of an issue will know for next time.

Spacious bedrooms, lovely bathroom beside each bedroom. All very clean and lovely decor. Very close to centre for eating out.

The living space was the same size as the bedroom space so felt a bit enclosed. No outdoor area to use (the area at the backdoor was more of a back alley so didn't feel comfortable sitting out). Also stairs were a bit challenging for my elderly dad, he did manage but a proper pole to hold on to would have worked better than what was there as you couldn't grip this well

Property needed a GOOD CLEAN,there were spiders in cupboard, sounds of a mouse at night nibbling on 1st floor b’room,sofa needs new legs as they are marking the stone floor, windows,filthy such a shame, fire never been cleaned,3bar stools& there was 4 of us, plant pots need binning, outside facilities BAD, bar stools were rickety, No welcome pack.not told about £275 accident deposit until we were half an hour away from property. WOULD LIKE A CALL BACK TO ME, as we rang them & were put through to china somewhere!!! rugs a NO go on top of carpet in bedrooms, is accident waiting to happen they were all rucked up very bad,

Bedrooms are spacious. Nice showers and very hot water.

Rugs in the bedroom are a trip hazard especially in the top room because they were ruffled up instead of sitting flat. I was worried for my pensioner mum in the night. Tried to straighten them but the furniture was too heavy to lift. So had to leave them as they were. It would be better with smaller ones so they sit flat.

Nice and cozy

The owner isn't really want to talk to you. I've tried to ask him a few things but the only thing he talk to me is about the damage cover to make sure I pay for it. Other then that, didn't respond any other questions.

The house was extremely comfortable and very clean. Excellent beds , very spacious rooms

Parking nearby was sometimes difficult
