I didn't want to leave!

I was greeted with a warm welcome from the host, who showed me to my room. The rooms were all named after Yorkshire folk or words. The room was very pleasant and looked out over the garden. The bed was comfortable and the room even had a small fridge for milk etc.. The residents lounge was magnificent, large, and very relaxing. Many books to read, and even a collection of LP's (remember those?) from the sixties and seventies, to flick through. The breakfast room was well laid out, the breakfast itself was very filling, it set me up for the day ahead. Loads of local villages to explore, many having pubs and restaurants.

A perfect stay with friendly hosts.

The property was clean and tastefully furnished, everything felt new and in perfect condition. The owners were very friendly and welcoming and breakfast was perfect. It was just outside York but not too far so it was easy to drive in or take the park and ride.

We had a small but very cosy room. It had a great view out of a big window. Although on a main street it was totally silent. The hosts Paul and Hilary were absolutely lovely and gave us a warm welcome and soma great talks in the morning. Breakfast was also really good and because it was included, my wife and me concluded that it had so far the best value for money.
