  • "The cottage was easy to find."

    It was always warm in the cottage, this is due to the biomass heating in the rooms. There is a very good village shop and a very large supermarket about 2 miles away. We used both. We would not hesitate to stay here again. Extremely relaxing and enjoyable holiday.

  • "A lovely stay with my husband."

    Peaceful even though it's on a working farm. We saw the red kites in the sky most days and was lovely to watch them. The cottage was very comfortable and we both slept well. I would ask for some milk/teabags/coffee to be in the cottage on arrival but otherwise everything was amazing, thank you.

    Wonderful view from cottage towards Spofforth. There is a main road close to cottage but the soundproofing of the building makes this of negligible consequence.

  • "We loved everything about our fortnight at Church View Cottage."

    The property was spacious, very well equipped, in fact the first cottage we have rented which supplies enough crockery, cutlery etc so that the dishwasher can be used economically. The view from the cottage was to die for. Two sheep would greet us in the mornings with a friendly baa. The one slight worry we had was when taking a shower. We are elderly and mobility impaired. The shower room was wonderful other than only suction fitted hand rails were offered to affix for ourselves if required. Unfortunately we did not trust them, as we need proper support. A couple of permanent vertical hand rails fitted to the left of the roof shower and on the back wall in the open space, for using with the hand held shower, would have been fantastic. This, however, did not spoil our fortnight because everything else was fantastic, and our problem with the lack of hand rails would not affect many visitors. Thank you Pat and Luke.

    The cottage was very well equipped and was incredibly clean and comfortable. The open plan living on one floor was ideal. Even though there are other cottages next door, the layout ensures complete privacy. Each cottage has its own parking space, so there was never a concern about where to park if returning late. It is on a working farm, however this was never an issue. There is a road near the property which was busier than expected but didn't spoil the holiday in any way. We wouldn't hesitate to book again. Lovely hosts too.

It really is a working farm and we were lucky to be there when new lambs were being born. It was also fascinating to watch the sheep being rounded up for milking.

    A spacious, beautifully furnished/decorated and very well equipped cottage. A lot of thought and care has gone into this barn conversion and we immediately felt at home there. Designated parking and a small private patio with (of course) a church view, completes the package. It is a working farm so there are animals nearby to enjoy watching. It should be said that the property is less than 50m from a busy main road so, although screened, there is traffic noise. I’m a light sleeper and didn’t find it a problem after the first night even with the bedroom window open. The upside of the road proximity is an excellent large Sainsbury’s and petrol station some 10 minutes away and easy access to Harrogate, Knaresborough, Wetherby and the A1.
