"Really beautiful place, cottage amazing and lots of treats and things in the cupboards to keep me going."
Didn’t meet the owner as it wasn’t warm enough to sit out on patio to meet. Although had contact via text, talking about different things.
Will definitely book again.
Thankyou for your feedback much appreciated , I’m glad you enjoyed your stay Property Owner

Owner left tons of information on local area as well as treats for the humans and the dog. Was able to sit out in the evening with a glass of vino in the enclosed private garden. Would recommend without hesitation.

"Kath has provided everything guests need from bathrobes and slippers to cleaning materials, toiletries and lots of tea towels, hangers, drawer space and kitchen equipment."
A welcome basket of goodies - bread, biscuits, sweets, wine and milk and butter in the fridge and a warm welcome from Kath herself.
The area is good for walking and cycling, there are numerous pubs, restaurants and supermarkets nearby, and the coast, York and designer shopping outlets are a longer drive away.
We had a very comfortable staycation here and would happily revisit.

"Excellent annexe for a very comfortable stay."
Separate entrance and great facilities. Very comfortable and spacious rooms. Excellent food preparation area and facilities in the kitchen. Good sized fridge and cupboard space. All items for preparation, cooking and washing up provided with many extras. Lots of things to help without bringing everything with you. A relaxing experience for eating and being entertained with the use of the garden and patio area when it's fine. Good bathroom, only problem I have was getting temperature right in the shower, very delicate movements from cold to too hot, otherwise a brilliant retreat. The surrounding area is easily accessible with motorway access not too far away. BRILLIANT

"A very cosy and comfortable place to stay."
Brayton Retreat was spotlessly clean and well equipped and there was a more than generous welcome pack which was very much appreciated. The only thing we could suggest would be to increase the Wi-Fi speed. Overall highly recommended holiday accommodation.

"Ideal location for us and loved the canal walks and the nearby individual shops provided us with home baking and good quality goods."
The information left within the house was excellent. The Welcome Pack was the best we had ever had so thoughtful even Rosie our dog was spoilt with her own goodies. The house was clean and cosy our only minor criticism would be the sofa which was not very comfy and a long way from the TV. The towels were first class and smelt wonderful all week. We were sorry we could not have stayed longer but appreciate your kindness and lovely to meet your Old English Sheepdog Alfie.

"Brayton Retreat is a lovely, warm, comfortable annex joined to the owners house."
It is set in a lovely little estate of detached houses, so is very peaceful. We immediately felt relaxed upon entering and the welcome boxes, ( for us and our dog ), went far beyond anything we have received at other holiday homes. The owners welcomed us and were on hand should we have needed them.
Due to our visit being in December, we didn't make use of the garden, but it was very handy for letting our dog out early morning and late at night.
The holiday flat is in an excellent position for visiting surrounding towns and we used the park and ride at the Designers Outlet to travel into central York. Dogs are allowed on the buses.
Selby has nearly all the major supermarkets and there is a Tesco Express in Brayton.
We would recommend Brayton Retreat to anyone wishing to visit the area.

There was everything in there apart from washing machine and they even offered to do our washing. We did find a laundrette up the road which we used. There was an ironing board and iron there along with hairdryer. These items were not listed on the details.
We had use of their lovely garden which was very pleasant having morning coffee and a glass of wine on a evening.. We would definitely recommend this little oasis.
