“A unique and lovely cottage in a great location (near university, city and ring road - so also great for visits further afield).”

The cottage is newly built in an airy, open plan style, with a more traditional exterior. This made for a very pleasant surprise on arrival, where we also met with fresh scones, jam, and wine! Very welcome! The cottage is well equipped and warm, and the beds are very comfy. Would highly recommend. Many thanks for a very pleasant stay. We would love to return.

“Superb!”

Myself my wife and my elderly mother recently stayed in Pear Tree cottage for our annual Christmas trip to York. Previously we have stayed on hotels close to York itself - I’m so glad that this year we decided to have a change! The moment we collected the key from the cleverly designed collection point we guessed that this would be a well set up establishment. Through the electric gate and directed to our own personal parking spot to unpack our car. We reasoned that the beautiful courtyard would look even more so in the Summer months. We unlocked our cottage - and wow! The first thing my wife noticed was the warmth and the lovely fresh smell. The heating had been set up for us in advance, which was lovely. Walking into the living space and straight away we had the feeling that someone had put their heart and soul into this place! It was so tasteful and clean and beautifully presented. From the complimentary wine left for us, to the cream tea, milk etc all waiting in the fridge. The bathrooms were immaculate, not a speck of dust to be found. The stove fire had all the wood and fire lighters you’d need for a cosy night in front of the smart tv. It really was home from home! The owners of The cottages have the balance just right. Offering visitors a beautiful setting, with everything required for an extremely comfortable stay, at the same time managing to give visitors the utmost privacy ( their home is just across the court yard) I have highly recommended this wonderful gem to my friends and family- I will also be booking next years visit very soon!

“Felt comfortable as soon as we walked in.”

Near to shops pub and takeaways. Underfloor heating kept the property warm and pleasant. Pictures online don't do it justice.

“Gorgeous cottage for our weekend stay.”

It had everything we needed and little touches such as wine on arrival and a cream tea in the fridge made us feel really welcome. I would definitely come back to this cottage.

“The rural location, but close enough to york for the park and rides and easy access to the moors and the North Yorkshire coast line .”
Mr Lockhart April 2018

“We were pleasantly surprised 'cause the house was fully equipped with everything you may need and even a bit more, from coffee, tea & milk to dishwasher tablets, toiletries etc.”

. My family and i had a wonderful time, the host was extremely helpful, friendly & kind was all clean and tidy easy to find (except for the heating system) we would love to get back as we really enjoyed it, my only criticism would be that i found the bed a little bit uncomfortable otherwise all great.

“Pear tree cottage was beautifully furnished, finished and spotlessly clean.”

So close to York and its attractions yet surrounded by lovely countryside. The welcome pack of scones and cream was a nice touch from the very friendly owners. We wouldn't hesitate to book again and look forward to returning.
Mr Tempest March 2018

“Lovely stay in a brilliant cottage.”

Has everything you would need and more! In a great location close to York and all local attractions. The welcome pack of food was an added bonus when we arrived!
Mr Lawson February 2018

“Pear Tree Cottage is spacious, well equipped and is perfectly located to explore the attractions in and around York.”

From the individually heated rooms, wonderful showers to the log burner considerable thought and attention to detail has gone into the cottage. Gary and Gill were perfect hosts and we loved the scones after a day out exploring. Thank you!
Mr Langford February 2018

“We were the first booking for this property and were blown away by the quality of the accommodation.”

The photos do not do it justice. It is beautifully finished and so spacious with everything you could want. Gary the owner is a great guy and really friendly (without being on top of you). York is around £15 away by taxi which made this property ideal for us as we didn’t have to worry about parking etc. Thank you for a lovely stay and we loved the scones, chocolate, crisps and wine that we’re waiting for us when we arrived! - a lovely thoughtful touch! :)
