Guest Reviews

Coupe (10/5): - Thank you for a lovely stay we will be back a Christmas! The fire was amazing.... cozy and homely. Going home!
Karen (7/5): As noted above - Breakfast was not offered therefore not supplied Unable to warm bedroom . Shower hard to regulate. Hard to fill kettle in bathroom . Access up spiral staircase hard for my friend with bad arthritis, the stairs were not mentioned when booking. We were not shown how to operate the shower which a manual would have been helpful.We were asked to reline garbage bins yet no bags supplied .
Lola (4/5): -
Colin (9/5): Would stay again - Good location I did not have time to stay longer
Dale (5/5): Lovely staff but the room could be given more attention. - It was very cosy. The lady who greeted us was lovely and I enjoyed the decor downstairs. It was incredibly cold, even with the heater on. There were far too many silly rules which weren’t communicated clearly prior to our arrival such as taking off outdoor shoes at the front door and not being allowed to eat food in our room. It was very outdated, uncomfortable, looked to be maintained in the cheapest way possible e.g. there were multiple screws in the door to hold it together and what looked to be a luminous stain on the rug. I felt as though I was staying at my Grandma’s house rather than a professional b&b. I didn’t feel as though it was worth the money I paid.
Mr. Gold (7/5): Quiet cottage just outside of York makes for an appropriate base. - Easy access to York by bus and car. Good value for money. Cozy cottage in a quiet location. The toilet is small and tends to accumulate quite a bit of condensation, making the floor constantly wet, unable to air dry. Mattresses are very, very very soft.
Jane (7/5): Adequate - Perfect location for our purposes . Lovely pub opposite We think it was misleading on the booking .com site . Believing there to be only a kettle , and breakfast was available, we found a fully equipped kitchen and no breakfast option . Had we known we would have brought stuff for breakfast , but we incurred further expense by having to go out for breakfast . The shower room was too cold to have a shower - going to the loo was bad enough ! And the log burner went out and wouldn’t re light . But the man who demonstrated it to us was delightful .
Powers (10/5): - A very warm welcome from the host. The place is gorgeous! Very nicely decorated, well kept, unique and cosy. Very quiet and comfortable. Perfect for reading, relaxing, and getting a great night's sleep. Great value.
Leigh (9/5): Stayed for a weekend to do Christmas markets it was lovely stay with a nice log fire to warm your bones after a long day - Homely welcoming cosy and comfortable Wasn’t anything I disliked at all
Glendon (4/5): Ok for one night. - Comfortable bed, if a little hard for me, fairly quiet area. General cleanliness could do with some improvement, dirty microwave (remnants of a re-heated Curry all over inside, owner did clean it after I mentioned it!), Generally a bit dated and rundown property. Bathroom showing signs of age, could do with a bit of attention to Shower Cubile condition! Lack of suitable pots and pans was a bit surprising for a self catering let?
Adrian (4/5): Was v.busy so basically only slept there. - Quiet. Nice church opposite. Shower clogged up, reported it but no action. Kitchen cold tap rotated when I turned it on. Sofa v uncomfortable. Very odd system for locking main door.
EMMA (6/5): - Although our room was facing the road it was very quiet at night, the towels and sheets were clean and there was plenty of tea and coffee provided. Our bed was quite uncomfortably and the room overall needed a deep clean.
Karen (4/5): Was disappointed & wouldn't recommend. - Lovely location & welcoming host. Cottage needed some tlc & and more attention to cleanliness.
Mackenzie (10/5): -
Charlette (10/5): A warm home from home welcome - Wonderful setting,perfect for our visit to York and the shambles. Wonderful host who booked the local pub for us as we arrived for tea time! A nice touch. 👌 Netflix was a bonus also. The lady also kept the log burner going when we went out for the day which was kind. Soft clean beds Comfy sofas. A real special find :) Nothing to not like. Was perfect for us as a family of 4
Becca (1/5): -
Gale Helen (1/5): Shocking B&B - Nothing at all we stayed out of the room in the local pub of which is amazing looking forward to when they have rooms . The room was disgusting so unclean cob webbs everywhere wardrobe full of sheets and bedding, shower not clean mould all over door ,I could go on and on plus stair case is shocking to go up and down I really don't know how it passes fire regulations!
Aesha Asma (5/5): -
Darren (10/5): Very comfy, warm room. Great location and great host. - Great parking and easy place to find Shower was cool even on the hottest setting
Debbie (5/5): The hosts were lovely - Lovely lounge with log burner Apart from in the longe it was cold and the shower was very dated either boiling hot or cold without any power
Timothy (2/5): Not what we expected for the money. - Location We have a disabled son with us. Was informed there was parking but when we arrived it was full and we were told we could park in the scout car park next door for a two pound donation.
Pokhrel (10/5): -
Jawaria (8/5): Comfortable and clean room to stay in for the night between our days at the York Yarn Festival. - We liked the comfortable room and homely vibes. The location had good connections into the city centre and a pub close-by. The host was very lovely and welcomed us warmly. Good communication. There was no small bin in the bathroom.
Thomas (10/5): -
Bernadette (2/5): AVOID - The property from outside, was beautiful and looked lovely We stayed at the B&B. My mother in one room and myself and husband in the other Sheets and towels were clean Cleanliness was a lot to be desired for. Coffee stained cups Cobwebs on lighting Very outdated Not so friendly lady who was running it. Her husband was chatty when putting the pilot light on heating in bedroom Wardrobes appeared to be used for their storage. My mother’s bedroom en suite had no handle on the shower door. It was not worth the £153 for the two poor rooms (this for room only)
Jo (3/5): -
Liam (10/5): Lovely - Lovely owners, good price and nice traditional property
Zaheer (6/5): Very comfy bed in this charming cottage - The shower door refused to closely firmly shut which meant that water was seeping through the floor and into the main hallway downstairs. Otherwise a very comfy bed with handy kettle and biscuits. Loved the spiral staircase! Very clear instructions left by host and would book again.
Kenneth (8/5): - Nice area and friendly welcome from the owners. Lot of building work at the rear of the property which was very noisy first thing in the morning which probably worth noting on the website. Property was reasonable but lacking in ventilation as the bedroom window was defective as was the skylight. Overall our stay was fine however if those mentioned shortfalls were addressed it would be a 5 out of 5
Matthew (6/5): - Good value for money
Tatiana (4/5): No breakfast, even though it is a B&B. - Location is good, just outside York, and nice pub nearby. Very small bedroom, bathroom needs a better cleaning. No breakfast, even though it is a B&B.
Joe (8/5): - Good overnight stop. Would recommend.
Rosalind (8/5): - We enjoyed our stay at this characterful home
Chelsie (8/5): Cute but could hear a pin drop - The cottage is teally sweet in a nice location with a bus right outside. The couple were really lovely and told us everything we needed to know. The reason i havent rated it high is because the wall are super thin! Privacy doesnt really exists so its not great for a couples holiday. Also the toiletries for the bathroom was just handsoap. Overall a lovely little place but sound proofing is needed and more bits and toiletries in the room please!
Verified traveler (4/5): Not worth the money - We arrived at 4pm for check in and owner was not there so had to wait for their arrival. The cottage itself wasnt to the standard we believed that 140 pounds is worth, the kitchen cabinet broken and half painted. The cottage did not feel clean, dead flies were found on the bedroom window and dark hair on the white bedding. Very very basic and small.
Benjamin (6/5): - No top up on the room beverages Stairs were very narrow winding up
Andrew (8/5): Last minute stay - Last minute arrangement but the owners were very helpful in accommodating us.
Verified traveler (8/5): - Owners were lovely and helpful. The property was just what we needed. It was comfortable and had everything we needed.
James (10/5): - Really nice stay, very clean and tidy and as we work away it was nice to be away in the countryside and in a nice village
Verified traveler (8/5): - Friendly hosts, clean room, great shower, slept well, nice view, good WiFi. Can’t complain!
Danyelle (2/5): - Owners have terrible customer service.
Steven (6/5): Average - Small narrow spiral staircase made it difficult to get a small cabin suitcase up or down. Also late check in time being 4pm. Wi fi also had no connection.
bula (8/5): Great base away from the centre of York - All good, just a little cold, the electric radiators don't really do the job. But would definitely recommend and we would stay there again.
Verified traveler (10/5): Nice and quiet. - Soft, comfy beds. Hot shower. Quiet. Free parking.
amanda (4/5): Not our cup of tea! - The cottage was freezing! a small plug in radiator to warm a large bedroom, hot water didn t work properly, tiny bathroom, beds uncomfy. food debris under curtains in lounge, walls are cardboard thin - we could here our neighbours conversations at 1030pm - 1230am and 4am therefore we didnt get much sleep! on the up side the kids were glad of the free wifi!! ok for a 1 night stay in the summer when you dont need any heating!!!
Bula (8/5): - Very quirky place. We had the 2 bedroom cottage. Very nice, loads of facilities, full kitchen. Great pub across the road. Just 10mins drive into York.
Deb (6/5): Convenient for York - Regular buses into York and the coast. Would recommend getting an All York bus ticket, as this allows you to travel on the buses in York for one price. The Fox Inn up the road produces good food, but not for those on a strict budget. As a family of 5 we spent approx £60 on food and drink. The room we stayed in had a fridge and microwave so simple meals could be made. Tea, coffee and sugar provided but no milk. We couldn't get a signal on the TV, but the WiFi was strong enough to connect our tablets. The room had it's own entrance and we were able to park our car outside this door.
John (8/5): Good value, family owned B&B - Good value stay. Arrived at an antisocial hour due to flight but owner accommodated this with no fuss. Large family room Dbl + Sngl + bunks. Also had fridge, kettle , sink etc. Good for family needing to heat baby food , bottles etc.
