Lillieput Lodge

Great week at the cottage.

Owners very helpful. Great for walking. Good bus service from Polkinton about 4 miles. Aldi and Sainsbury’s in Pocklington and independent shops. Everything you need in the cottage. very spacious.

The cottage was just as advertised it had everything you needed for a great holiday and more.

Good location close to York with easy access to the coast our host Graham and Erica were friendly and helpful and provided a much appreciated welcome gift of coffee, tea sugar and milk.

The accommodation was very clean and well looked after.

The property was very clean & comfortable.

Modern bathrooms & kitchen. Secure off road parking. During our stay it was lovely & warm too. Very convenient for many attractions & only a few minutes from park & ride into York.

Lovely cottage and well located to visit many of the regions outstanding attractions.

A very warm welcome from Graham on arrival and he was always available if we needed advice.

A rural setting but within 11 miles of York City Centre whilst the Park and Ride at Grimston Bar was a couple of miles closer. The cottage was spacious, well equipped and furnished with a comfortable bed and wonderful showers. The Pocklington Canal was close by for a very pleasant walk. Would recommend the property wholeheartedly and return in the future.

Great cottage would definitely love to stay again.

Graham was a great host available when needed.

Fantastic stay.

Made to feel very welcome and such a beautiful place

The cottage was excellent and the owners went out of their way to be helpful

Perfect place to stay, stayed there many times.

Owner very friendly, no issues.

The owner was very friendly & greeted us on arrival.

He was always available to answer any questions, but never interrupted our stay. A delightful property which we thoroughly recommend & would return to in the future.

We had a lovely holiday at lilliput lodge, received a very warm welcome from Graham and Erica, the cottage was very comfortable and very well equipped, the shower was fab!

The welcome tea and coffee was much appreciated, it was lovely to see the horses and to meet Thor! Would definitely recommend the cottage to friends and family, as places like York and the surrounding countryside was within easy reach.

We were very impressed by the owners, Graham and Erica who went out of their way to help us with queries about the cottage and its locality.

A really lovely place to stay with lovely welcoming owners.

Tea and coffee provided on arrival for that welcome cup of tea before going shopping!

An extremely well-appointed and pristine Property.

It had everything we needed, and more. As regular Self-Catering users we always carry a box of items sometimes not provided, but we did not need anything on this occasion. Location was ideal for local touring and access to York. Owners were charming and very helpful.

Wow!

What a hidden gem of a property - on a small-holding in Melbourne. Beautiful views over the fields and horses from the property. We loved this property. This annexe is equipped to a very high standard - and everything feels "new". Plenty of room and an amazing shower rooms on each floor. A true home from home. Lovely walks on the doorstep along the Pocklington Canal. We enjoyed days out to York (P&R 20 mins away), Pocklington, Beverley and also Flamborough Head to see the seals and Bempton Cliffs for the birds! Our hosts were so friendly. They could not be more helpful if we needed help or advice but were not in the least bit intrusive.

What a gem of a place.

Everything you need for a comfortable stay, very clean & modern & good WiFi too. Great location for walks, & exploring towns & villages. I'd have no hesitation in recommending this cottage to friends & family, loved it.

Other than slightly awkward to find on the first occasion the property provided an excellent base for our week in Yorkshire.

The property was well equipped and well presented. The owners were very pleasant and obliging, and living on site were available to provide assistance if required. Overall no hesitation in recommending the property.

Great holiday accommodation.

Very clean and well equipped. Friendly owners!

Nice cottage has the added advantage for me with a disabled son, in that it has a downstairs bedroom and bathroom.

Our second visit to this well-equipped cottage.

Warm welcome from owners Graham and Erica. Spotlessly clean as before. Nice little garden with patio furniture to enjoy after days out. Conveniently situated for local walks, trips into York and visits to the East Coast particularly Scarborough and the RSPB nature reserve at Bempton. Visited the local pub for a very nice meal on our last evening.

Had a wonderful and relaxing week at Lilliput Lodge which had almost everything needed and all the home comforts.

The owners, Graham and Erica are very friendly and knowledgable about the area and are always there to help if needed. The only small petty thing to mention is that maybe bathroom floors mats should be provided to the tiled floors.

Lovely and spacious holiday home close to village and Pocklington canal it was ideal for mine and my daughter's birthday celebrations in these trying times.

Very relaxing week away.

A very comfortable cottage with excellent facilities.

Very clean and modern inside. Incredibly peaceful, we had a very relaxing week.

What a lovely stay for my family.

We took two under 6 and our dog. The house was absolutely spotless and very well finished every where. It was very specious and had everything you could wish for. The owners were super friendly and helpful if we needed it. This is a great base to visit many local areas. It would also be suitable as a cozy stay if you do not want to move too far. We would absolutely stay again. Thank you

Great Stay House is very comfortable Very good hot shower, all rooms very spacious Area is very nice pub with good food in the village One small remark House is not easy to find a sign with properties name on main road would really help

The cottage was very well equipped, providing everything we needed.

The lounge seemed to need air conditioning - however, we were there at the warmest time of the year, so possibly may not be a problem normally. The area was lovely with loads of places to visit. The hosts were welcoming, without being obtrusive. We would definitely recommend this property to others.

Internally the cottage is very attractive, spacious, well equipped and comfortable with three major problems.

The lounge a beautiful double height room was uncomfortably hot in warm weather and the fans supplied although moving the air around cannot cope, it needs a/c. The rest of the house was fine. The wifi is very poor, the signal continually dropping on all devices The owner is aware of these issues It s also a pity that the entrance to and outside of the property is so scruffy and unwelcoming, a contrast to the inside and to the rest of the village

Our third visit.

Love the place . Graham and Erica perfect hosts. We will return!

Lovely warm cottage.

Spotlessly clean. Two excellent wet rooms, the best we have ever seen in a Sykes cottage. Well equipped spacious kitchen. Easy access to local amenities. Shop, Post Office and Pub within 1 mile. 8 miles to Grimstone Bar Park and Ride for Bus Service into York. Buses leave every 11 minutes for a quick 2 mile journey direct into York centre.

lovely place and owners.

Would highly recommend.

Very comfortable and warm accommodation and very helpful people.

The cottage itself is of a good standard although the outside needs cleaning (windows, doors and woodwork).

Inside the cottage is ideal and very comfortable although the bedroom curtains could do with being a little heavier to darken the rooms in the early morning. The "lawn" and patio are not really attractive to use, in need of some TLC and a little bit of seclusion. My wife spent an hour cleaning the patio furniture before we could use it. Mr Rollason did purchase a parasol for the small table at our request and both of our hosts were very friendly and attentive at all times. There is a poultry farm right next door and at times there was quite a bit of background noise from process machinery and also from heavy lorries, even late at night. The location is great for visiting the area round York and there are several attractive little villages and towns around within a short drive.

Our second time at Lillieput everything excellent as previously.

Graham and Erica welcoming hosts. We only needed to contact them about broadband tripping, resolved in minutes! This the perfect place for us to holiday. We hope to return later this year and possibly for two weeks next year. Melbourne is a quiet village with pub and local shop it is only a few miles from Pocklington and other retail outlets are available. Nice walks nearby and only 9 or so miles to the Grimston Bar Park&Ride. The place is spotless, all the facilities you might need and apart from go to come back from work almost traffic free. Go there you will love it! When I get the time I will place a review on Trip Advisor.

just beautiful

Lillieput Lodge is a clean and spacious cottage with a lovely canal side walk nearby.

A good base for day trips to York and the coast. We enjoyed our stay and would be happy to stay again!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Lillieput Lodge.

It was very clean,comfortable & spacious. The owners were very friendly & helpful. Welcome tray was appreciated. We enjoyed watching the wildlife & would certainly stay again!

Cottage was more than a holiday cottage, it was like a well loved home, well heated, cosy and a log fire.

The owners of the property were there at our arrival to welcome us.

The accommodation was very comfortable and met all our needs. The ground floor 2nd bedroom and bathroom were very accessible and convenient as we had older relatives in our group. The property was of a high standard .

The cottage was very comfortable and was very well equipped.

The owners were extremely friendly and helpful but never intrusive. it is a good area for walking and sightseeing and we found several good, dog friendly pubs which served good food. Altogether an enjoyable holiday.

The cottage was very clean and was equipped with everything you might want.

It is very comfortable which made settling in easy. It is set in a pretty village near to the canal which makes a lovely walk. It is close to many of Yorkshire's scenic delights. The owners are very friendly and have 3 beautiful horses and a very friendly labrador. They are on hand if you need anything. There is early morning traffic on the village road but that was not of concern. The only downside was that the garden is not enclosed. Having a dog meant we were on constant alert to prevent her from straying around the small holding. Maybe consider gates? Overall the cottage was an excellent cottage holiday. We'd recommend.
