“A very well equipped and comfortable cottage in a quiet and convenient location.”

Good parking, safe, enclosed garden for the dog and well equipped kitchen. Stamford Bridge just a few minutes in the car with good pubs, takeaway, a co-op, chemist etc. Would definitely book again.

“We were absolutely delighted with The Barn.”

It is a lovely cottage with every need catered for. It was very quiet in the evening and at night time, although the main road could be quite busy during the day. The enclosed garden is wonderful if you have a dog, it's the best one we've found. The cottage was clean and well equipped, the shower excellent, a lovely big TV and good parking facilities. The owners kindly left us some milk and cake which was most appreciated after a long journey. We will definitely be returning to The Barn, highly recommended.

“It's a fantastic area for anyone with a dog and looking for a quiet area to get away and chilll but also plenty of places to go if you are looking for something to do.”

We will hopefully be back next year again.

- Mr Weeks, August 2020
“We loved our holiday home.”

It was comfortable, clean, homely and as soon as I saw the property and garden with the surrounding fields I felt relaxed. It had everything we needed and I wouldn’t hesitate in going back.

- Miss Buckett, July 2020
“We had a wonderful time in The Barn over Christmas and it was very clean, warm and cosy!”

The owner had left us a home baked cake and had also added Christmas decorations around the flat, including a small Christmas tree which were very nice touches! We used The Barn as a base for walking around Yorkshire and visiting York. It is situated in a quiet location about 15-20 minutes drive from York and with easy access to the Yorkshire countryside. Having the two bathrooms was definitely a bonus as there were four of us plus our hound. The owner of the cottage was very helpful and checked that everything was okay the day after we arrived.

- Dr Blair, December 2019
“Unfortunately we had to cut our stay short due to family bereavement.”

The owner greeted us on arrive and could not be more helpful. The cottage was very clean with facilities as described. The village of Stamford Bridge was about 1 1/2 mile away with a fully stocked Coop. York was about 15 min drive away as was a good garden centre at Shiptonthorpe. The area was very Dog friendly as was The Barn and garden centre. There are many Dog friendly shops in York and several places where can take your dog in while you have a meal. Ultimate question would we return? YES it was brilliant. Dave & Margaret Bones

“Very clean, comfortable and well equipped cottage.”

Suitable for wheelchair users with a ramp to the patio door and plenty of turning space throughout ground floor.

- Mrs Walker, November 2019
“The owner of the cottage came to meet us to check everything was to our satisfaction which was a lovely gesture.”

The cottage itself was very clean and had everything you could need.

- Mr Knowles, July 2019
“Great location and everything we needed for a great holiday and the dog felt quite at home there.”

“Peaceful self-catering property surrounded by beautiful countryside”

We stayed here for 4 nights in May 17 and had a lovely relaxing few days. Undoubtedly, the glorious weather helped! Despite the property being semi-detached you wouldn't have know there was anyone next door. The property was stocked with tea bags, coffee and everyday cupboard essentials such as sugar, salt, gravy granules etc.. and an additional nice gesture was a pint of milk in the fridge and two pieces of cake in a tin - much appreciated after a drive of c.200 miles! Bed linen and towels were included too. The ground floor bathroom has a walk in shower and the first floor bathroom has a bath. There is a washing machine and other appliances available for use such as a vacuum cleaner, iron etc.. The owners kindly fitted the wheelchair ramp from the patio door to the garden although unfortunately we were not able to use it because the small wheels on the wheelchair did not like the gravel driveway. We managed though and probably a larger wheeled chair would make it across the gravel. The properties are situated near to the owners cottage with nothing else in the immediate vicinity. We met the lovely owners who were happy to be contacted if help was needed and we also made friends with their adorable border collie! The nearest village, Stamford Bridge is about a 10 minute drive away and has a Co-op Food, newsagent, take away, pub etc.. Grimston Bar Park & Ride is again about a 10 minute drive away and for £2.90 return takes you to Piccadilly, York which is convenient for tourist attractions such as JORVIK Viking Centre, York Castle Museum, York Minster and The Shambles. Scarborough was about an hour away by car and a nice drive on the A64. Lovely place to stay for discovering the area and so quiet you'll probably have the best nights sleep you've had in a long time!

“Exactly what we wanted!”

We wanted a few days away where we could just chill out and walk the dog. This is exactly what we got at The Barn. The cottage had everything that we needed, it was clean and comfortable and the garden was perfect for the dog. The nearest shops were about 5 minutes away and there was everything you needed in one place. The cottage is close to,the road and during the day it was quite busy. However, come nightfall it all became very quiet.

“Perfect, relaxing break in peaceful surroundings.”

Great property, lovely area. Arrived to a delicious cake and milk in the fridge, how thoughtful! (it's the little things that count). The enclosed garden made for a great break for Soco (my dog) and plenty of walking areas around, with Stamford Bridge a 5 minute drive. The owners were very helpful and friendly along with Gyll, their very well behaved and friendly dog. I would return and would definitely tell my friends and family about this property.

“A Peaceful Retreat”

Lovely peaceful location. Enjoyed the fact the garden was totally enclosed and private. The property was tastefully decorated and furnished, and very comfortable. Not too far from York and other attractions.

“Holiday perfection in beautiful countryside - a treat for the Aussies”

We stayed at the recently renovated Barn this July and had a wonderful stay. The owners have put in EVERYTHING you'd possibly need for a home from home experience but with that awesome 'holiday feeling' thrown in! Ref 21068 (The Studio) adjoins the property and can be used to accommodate bigger groups who want to be together but separate! The Studio also has disabled access. We had THE BEST time here and enjoyed the real countryside feel ... sipping wine in the sunshine in the back garden while the tractors go about their business gives a real feelgood factor! Can't wait to come back from Australia to stay again next time we're in UK. Thanks guys!

About the location

STAMFORD BRIDGE

York 8.5 miles.

Stamford Bridge, as its name suggests, was a fording point over the River Derwent for a Roman settlement. Nowadays, it is a village with a selection of shops and restaurants and is notable for a renovated railway viaduct, which is now used as a cycle and public footpath. The village is well known as the site of the Battle of Stamford Bridge on 25th September 1066, which marked the end of the Viking era in Britain. Within easy reach are the pretty Yorkshire market towns of Malton, Beverley and Driffield and within an hour’s drive is the unspoilt coastal resort of Filey with open beaches and the nearby RSPB nature reserve at Bempton.

Please note: this property only allows Friday check in
