  • "Fantastic cottage, great location for exploring the area (huge amount to see!"

    ) Cottage very clean, well equipped facilities. Owners very polite, had an introductory chat on arrival and another at the end of the week before we left, the owners then keep themselves away, but always there should you need anything at all. To top it all, the hot tub area was fantastic for unwinding at the end of a long day of sightseeing, great wooden canopy which makes the hot tub enjoyable in all weather. Had a great, comfortable stay, would highly recommend.

    Julie has thought of everything needed for an enjoyable holiday. Set in a lovely location overlooking countryside and it's a pleasant walk into the village. Enjoyed our week here, used the hot tub a few times, which was great and lit the log burner at night, which felt really cosy.

    The host Julie met us to ensure we were happy with everything and was available if we needed anything, but our privacy was not imposed on at any time during our stay. Every thing you need was there, the welcome pack was a nice touch, It was spotlessly clean, The Hot Tub was ready on arrival one of the best top of the range we have used, The pub is very close and welcoming but does not serve food at all. We would definitely stay again and recommend without any hesitation. Many Thanks to Julie & Dave.

The only thing we found was the bedroom was too warm at night as there is no opening window, we opened bathroom window and left bedroom door open. There would normally be everything you could possibly need, though unfortunately we missed out on robes & towels, maps etc as they couldn't be provided (rules from Sykes) though we did have flip flops and slippers. The pub in the village is lovely and friendly, unfortunately not serving food at the moment. We went to The White swan in nearby village of Bubwith and had 2 lovely meals in there.

  • "This cosy cottage was perfect for our weekend away."

    Julie and Dave thought of everything that made our Valentine’s Day so special. On rainy days, we played games and put our feet up watching Netflix. When weather was permitting we went on long walks around the country side visiting different villages stopping off at the pub. The hot tub was amazing for relaxing and winding down the evenings with brilliant water features including a docking station - love the duck! Everything was up to a high standard and we couldn’t have asked for a better weekend.

    In addition to this, it is tastefully decorated and presented, and was spotlessly clean. The location is very peaceful and ideal for visiting York or the East Yorkshire coast by car. The village has a lovely pub which serves great meals and drinks. A thoroughly enjoyable stay with absolutely no negatives whatsoever.

    All furnishings and appliances were to a high spec and the hosts were great too. Heating was excellent, made in very cost in the evenings. Great base for visiting York or Scarborough/Bridlington The hot tub was one of the best we have used (and we have used a few), it being covered only added to the experience, as you could use it no matter the weather. Would definitely recommend and hope to go back sometime.

    ?? The bathroom was complete with bath and large shower cubicle and an abundance of lovely towels, bathrobe,flip flops and spa slippers and the bedroom was a lovely size with a very comfortable bed and good storage for clothes. The main area of kitchen and lounge was perfect, lovely comfy sofa and chair and the kitchen area was large and very well equipped for cooking. The hot tub was the best maintained one we have had and the cover over it meant that even when it rained we could still use it, a brilliant idea. The owners were extremely friendly and helpful. The village pub was just a short walk away and we enjoyed a good few nights in with the locals, who were very welcoming, the next village along ,Bubwith, is lovely to visit and we ate regularly at The White Swan, highly recommend this pub to anyone. Fullerton is ideally situated for for visiting other areas , such as Selby, York, Bridlington, without having to travel for hours. We highly recommend this little bungalow to stay in, I doubt anyone couldn't be happy here and we will most certainly be returning

    Situated in a quiet village. Everything you could possibly need has been thought of by the very friendly hosts Julie and Dave. The hot tub is an added bonus.

    I was surprised that all the small essentials - kitchen roll, washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets etc. were all provided. This is very rare in my experience. Provision of bath robes, slippers and flip-flops was also something I've never had provided before. The welcome hamper was a nice touch. It was also unusual to have a subscription tv service (Amazon) provided. This is a first for me in all the years of booking self-catering cottages and lodges. The hot tub was maintained each morning before we got up and was very relaxing to use at the end of each day. The location of the Mill Hideaway is ideal for day trips, close to York and many tourist attractions. Definitely a 5 star property

The property

Tucked away in the quiet little village of Ellerton, engulfed by luscious green pastures and rambling Yorkshire countryside, is this freshly converted, detached annex in the grounds of the former windmill; a picturesque scene to be admired from the moment you make your way up the gated driveway.

As you step through the double French doors from the enclosed patio you will be immediately delighted by the high quality design laid out in the open-plan living space, with bright and airy colour schemes alluring you into a sense of calm and tranquillity.

Relax and unwind on the sofa with the woodburner ablaze, or step across to the kitchen to find all that you need to cook up a delicious dinner on sleek worktops, with ultra-modern fixtures and fittings.

The dining area rests adjacent, finishing the setup in style.

Just off from here is the luxurious bedroom with plenty of wardrobe space and a contemporary en-suite bathroom, enjoying a chic set of black, white and grey overtones.

This modern formation is simply perfect for couples seeking some quality time together, with the added benefit of the fabulous outdoor hot tub, privately stowed under a luxury wooden gazebo, for added seclusion in a romantic setting.

Here you can also enjoy sitting out during summer months on the garden furniture, with a refreshing beverage in hand, over a spot of alfresco dining.

Perhaps head into the village one afternoon and have a cheeky drink at the local pub, as you're passing through on a leisurely stroll.

Or take a trip to the North Yorkshire Coastline which you can reach within the hour.

Also nearby is the Lower Derwent Valley National Nature Reserve comprising a wealth of woodland and wild meadows for walks in the country, while the town of Selby boasts shopping, restaurants and Selby Abbey for exploring.

A fantastic getaway not to be missed.
