Stunning location, property, walks and great things to do ie tennis, croquet and an outdoor heated pool.

Tastefully redecorated old buildings with stunning grounds in an amazing location just outside of York.

Cottage was lovely, cosy and clean. It was equipped with everything we could possibly need, especially the kitchen. Lovely grounds/estate for wandering and exploring. Kids loved the pool. Short drive to park & ride made it very convenient to get into and out of York city centre.

Stunning holiday home that is definitely worth a visit.

Clean, comfortable and homely with lovely touches like hand picked flowers from the gardens and yummy sacks and drink. Lots of space and peaceful even with other guests about.

Clean and tranquil with beautiful surroundings

We wanted a quiet comfortable stay within a short distance from the centre of York. The keys were easily accessible and the host met us on arrival. The grounds were stunning and the room was comfortable and clean with all the facilities we needed. It was lovely and quiet and I would certainly recommend the Vavasour to friends and family looking for the same experience.

A relaxing stay which was family friendly and 5 stars out of 5. A lovely location.

The location was beautiful, quiet and the swimming pool and tennis courts made it really family friendly. This made my daughter's day to swim everyday in the heated outside pool, which was free for us to use, as we were staying in one of the houses on the estate we got to use all the facilities.
