- Mrs Parkin-mackenzie, February 2020
“We celebrated my husbands 40th birthday here with family and had a fantastic time.”

There was fresh bread and cupcakes waiting for us as we arrived which was a lovely touch. The cottage was clean and had plenty of space for us all. The pool table and darts board were a hit with the whole family and the younger children loved the little door separating the rooms. We used the complimentary pass to Dalby Forest one day and had a drive to the coast another. I would highly recommend this beautiful cottage and am looking for dates for us to go again!

- Mrs Roe, January 2020
“Myself and 8 friends (all above 30) stayed here for the weekend and we all had a wonderful time.”

On arrival the owners had left us some cakes and a loaf of homemade bread which we thought was a lovely touch. The cottage is a good size with everything you need for an enjoyable stay. We particularly enjoyed the games room and large kitchen area where we could all sit together to eat and play games around the table. The bedrooms are large and the beds are comfy. We have no complaints and thought the price we paid was excellent. We would definitely recommend this lovely cottage and hope to return again in the future.

- Mr Watson, January 2020
“Beautiful cottage with plenty of parking on a working farm which we all loved especially when we went to see the cows in the barn!”

The owners were very helpful and friendly and live next door which is ideal if you have any problems. We walked into a fabulously sized kitchen with buns and a loaf of bread waiting for us - delicious. The only thing we found was there wasn't quite enough serving bowls, we had a party of 8 so were doing a lot of food and found we were struggling to find bowls to serve food up in but that is literally the only criticism. The pool table was a big hit especially with the 2 teenagers we had with us and the 8 year old loved the little door between the bedrooms! Having 2 rooms with a double bed and a single bed is ideal when you have smaller children so they can be in the same room as you. Overall we had a great weekend celebrating our sons 18th birthday and would definitely come again as it's only an hour from home and we regularly visit Dalby forest anyway so it was great to have it on the doorstep. I would definitely recommend Boundcliff farm

- Mr Roberts, November 2019
“Fantastic stay, very comfortable, relaxing, clean, worm cottage and lots of extras were included.”

The standard of everything is excellent, and the owner was so friendly. Highly recommended

- Mr El Sakka, October 2019
“Lovely cottage, fresh bread on arrival, and cupcakes.”

Very spacious. 10/10

- Mr Barnes, August 2019
“The cottage was beautiful with everything we needed and more.”

I'd highly recommend it, and the location.

- Mrs Laghaney, August 2019
“We all absolutely loved this cottage, the farm was great, the cottage was lovely and clean.”

A nice little touch was when we arrived there was freshly baked bread and buns waiting for us. It was also close enough to the shops. We will be back.

- Mrs Wilson, July 2019
“We loved the location of the farmhouse and the play field at the back was enjoyed by everyone from my 16month old grandson his mum and dad his auntie and his uncles to his grandad .”

The farmhouse had everything we needed to have a fabulous gathering for my birthday with plenty of room for us all 7 adults and a toddler . All in all a great place to spend the weekend . Much fun was had by all .

- Mrs Wray, June 2019
“Spent a week at the property as part of a family celebration.”

We were greeted by the welcoming smell of freshly baked bread, and a homemade cake. It was an interesting property with unique features, like the little door connecting two of the bedrooms. Overall everything was clean but some parts were tired. All bedding was clean & fresh. As we went at the start of the new season we would have expected everything to be fresh from winter repairs. The drawer in the kitchen, left of the cooker, was broken. The main double bedroom had a curtain rail with a broken middle support & various curtain hooks missing. The shower cubicle door we felt was marked such that it could be best replaced. The pool table has seen better days, & had an interesting fall to one end! A throw on the back of the settee hides a hole in the back cushion. As the week proceeded it was found that the bathroom toilet had a leak, thankfully it seemed to be clear water. The property was ideally located for visits to the coast and North York moors. There were many well signed local walks, including one across the fields to the Grapes at Ebberston. The local pub, The Cayley Arms is worth a visit.

- Mr Palethorpe, May 2019
“Lovely place to stay!”

Perfect for a nice getaway with friends, plenty of space and very clean and comfortable . fresh bread and cake was excellent .

- Miss Niblett, March 2019
“We had a lovely time at the farm.”

The kids loved the cows. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen was lovely. Cupcakes and fresh bread on arrival were delicious. A downstairs toilet would have been nice. We weren’t able to get the games/videos working and thought that it was maybe unnecessary and better off not being there. We had a lovely time tho

- Mrs Dodds, February 2019
“Great cottage very spacious whilst cosy and homely at the same time.”

Our 2nd time and we will be back again.

- Mr Watson, February 2019

Home made cake and bread on arrival . Family enjoyed our stay.

- Mrs Boulton, January 2019

- Mr Marelli, January 2019
“Great cottage for social gatherings.”

Lovely kitchen & dining space. Great quiet location.

- Miss Radcliffe, December 2018
“Lovely house to take the extended family to for the weekend - plenty of things to do for kids and adults alike with the games room and trampoline, plus only half an hour away from the coast.”

Brilliant local pub with great food. Overall a very enjoyable weekend for the second year running. Will be back again!

- Ms Price, November 2018
“Lovely cottage, very spacious and comfortable for 10 peopleand 2 dogs.”

- Mrs Cornish, October 2018
“The photos need to be updated on the website as it is much better than what the photos are now.”

Other than that we had a brilliant weekend and would love to return.

- Ms Parvin, October 2018
“Nine of us recently had our annual girls weekend away and stayed at Boundcliffe Farm.”

On arrival we were greeted by the lovely smell of freshly baked bread and a fantastic home made Victoria sponge. The cottage was spacious, warm and comfortable. The beds were clean and comfortable too and the newly opened Cayley Arms is a short walk away. All nine of us have given Boundcliffe the thumbs up and will definitely be booking it again for next year!

- Mrs Lees, September 2018
“Had a wonderful stay at this property, the pictures o the website don't do it justice.”

Will definitely be booking again.

- Mr Forshaw, September 2018
“We really enjoyed our time in this family friendly holiday cottage.”

- Mrs Salmon, August 2018
“Ideal for families with children.”

-the access to a field to play football and trampoline; the access to walk round the farm and see the animals;lovely walks from the farm. The games room is well equipped for a "rainy day". Pickering is only 4 MILES AWAY inland ; Scarboro,Filey about 10miles on the coast.Lots of "Outdoors Activities" to visit----Aqua Park,Dalby Forest-Go Ape ,great for children. The farmhouse was well equipped and had a lovely ambience about it. Thoroughly enjoyed our familiies holiday

- Mrs Youle, August 2018
“Gorgeous cake and bread on arrival.”

Lovely accommodation. The one thing we were very disappointed about was the amount of dog mess that was on the playing field. This left the football pitch unusable.

- Mrs Stevenson, August 2018
“The cottage was fantastic.”

Everything you needed fir a large family get away. Would definately be back.

- Mrs Omalley, August 2018
“Boundcliffe farm was lovely, would highly recommend it.”

- Smith, July 2018
“Great place friendly people.”

great for dogs. cake bread and milk were a great welcome. would go back and highly recommend.

- Mrs Flint, July 2018
“We had a brilliant weekend--the weather was perfect but even in the rain this area is worth exploring.”

the facilities for 4 boys,aged 14,11, 10 and 8 were ideal with access to the field at the back of the farm easy. They loved the trampoline and football nets but we flew a kite too. The boys want to go again.

- Mrs Moizer, May 2018
“The perfect family getaway”

Recently returned from a long weekend at Boundcliffe Farm with the family. Cottage the perfect size for the 10 of us.Loved the little 'secret' door between the 2 bedrooms and the younger kids loved running up and down the 2 staircases. Obviously got to mention the freshly cooked bread and cake on arrival. We all made good use of the games room, especially the pool table and dartboard. Despite the weather we enjoyed playing on the trampoline at the back. The whole accommodation was spacey but cosy and the wood burning fire was perfect for the dark evenings. Can't really fault anything, as everything we needed was there (though we could have done with instructions on using the dishwasher and electric oven/grill). It's a shame we couldn't have the bonfire the owner was going to arrange one night due to the bad weather. Ideal location and close to Scarborough. Would definitely recommend Boundcliffe Farm and hope to return again maybe in the summer months,

- Susan R, November 2015
“Lovely holiday”

Just returned from a wonderful holiday. We were greeted when we arrived at the cottage by a yummy cake and fresh baked cake - what a treat!! The cottage was clean and spacious the accommodation was great for a big family, the field at the back with trampoline and play equipment and the playroom were perfect for the kids, they had a ball!! Thank you so very much for our lovely holiday xx

- Jondai, May 2015
“Spacious and cozy holiday home, loved it!”

Just back from our stay at Boundcliffe Farm. Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It's rare to find a holiday home that accommodates so many while not at any point feeling crowded. The place had everything we needed and more. Loved the games room and all the little extras, toys DVDs (well VHS actually but that was wonderfully retro). The children loved the little door and ran round and round the house. A working farm so cows, horses and tractors all around. For the adults the log fire, darts and pool while the kids slept meant that we didn't miss the pub in evening at all. To top it off a homemade cake and bread in the breadmaker greeted us upon arrival. Lots of very thoughtful little touches. All in all a fab place and we're already planning a return trip.

- LJBrum, March 2015
“Great family holiday with a warm welcome”

Loved this cottage. Great location. Three families stayed for new year. Very well equipped. Made to feel really welcome with homemade bread and cake on arrival. Warm, clean and great for a large party. Kids loved the games room. Great farmhouse kitchen and table for family meals. Only downside was layout of bedrooms. Three families staying together and we had to compromise over bedrooms ie only 2 double rooms. Loved the real fire. Great for cosy evenings and bottle of wine.

- Z2518RMclaireb, January 2015

“A brilliant place to stay”

Everything was just right for an excellent family holiday. Clean, the beds were comfortable, there was plenty to entertain the kids and it was in a good position for getting to a range of venues. Just don't eat at the village pub-had to be the worst food and least friendly waitress-although the beer and landlord werte good.

- A FlipKey verified reviewer, December 2012
“Great, family-friendly cottage”

We enjoyed a great family Christmas at this lovely family-friendly cottage. Plenty of room for us all (6 adults, 2 children, a baby and a dog) and the games room was a big hit with everyone. The large kitchen with a table big enough to seat everyone was brilliant. The children had great fun with the 2 staircases - go up one set from the kitchen, through the bedrooms and appear down the other set into the lounge! The little extras provided by the owner (homecade cake, loaf baking in the breadmaker, tea/coffee/milk and sugar) were much appreciated, and an especially nice touch were the little gifts left under the Christmas tree for the children. We hope to return and would definitely recommend this cottage.

- Carole W, December 2012
“We loved it”

This was a last minute booming to replace a washed out camping trip and we're very glad we changed our plans. Lovely cottage, well appointed and spacious and without that "holiday cottage" smell that you get so often. Very clean and bright rooms and welcomed our canine companion happily too. Fresh bread baking on arrival and a home made cake waiting too which was very welcome. The wood burning stove was great. Perfect position for exploring the North Yorkshire moors and close to the coast too. The pub quiz in the local pub was enormous fun on Sunday night too. Our only tiny critcism is that for people who really like to cook when we go away, a few more pots, utensils and pans would be welcome in the kitchen. Highly recommended!! Thank you very much
