  • "Our family had an absolutely wonderful birthday celebration weekend at Green End House."

    It is very well equipped and the property is wonderful and located in a very beautiful and peaceful area. The hot tub was the main attraction for the younger members of the family but there are plenty of games/DVD's etc to keep them entertained otherwise. I had some direct contact with the owner and she was absolutely lovely. We would definitely stay here again without any hesitation.

  • "We had a fantastic stay at Green End House."

    The house is beautiful with ample space and amenities. The owners have thought of everything! There is plenty to do in the lovely local area but if you want a relaxed break the hot tub at the property is fantastic offering wonderful views of the countryside. We will definitely be back!

  • "Green End was perfect."

    We were three adults and two teens, and there was more than enough room for all of us to sleep, and retreat to individual areas. Usually I would have recommendations to improve a location, but I have nothing. Our expectations were exceeded. We have travelled the world and stayed in many locations, this will remain one of the best. The games, movies, inside entertainment options, table tennis and basketball hoop were all used and approved by out teens.

    Hot tub was great. The whole house is very child and family friendly We reported the BBQ stand, as it was a little wobbly but the owner sorting this promptly The fridge had a leak which is also being sorted. It did not affect the coolness of the fridge. There are 2 fridge freezers (and 2 dishwashers!) which proved useful , though we only used 1 dishwasher Suzy the owner was exceptionally good at giving information and responded within hours to any questions I recommend this property

  • "A stunning, spacious and comfortable large property in a lovely location."

    It provided a great base to celebrate my 50th birthday with family/friends. The kitchen is huge and has everything (and more) than you would need for a comfortable stay. The downstairs space includes three living areas providing plenty of space to spread out. Upstairs, are five good sized bedrooms. The master suite is just incredible- stylishly designed and cavernous. The table football and table tennis are fun additions and there are a plethora of games/DVDs to use. Good location nearby to Ripon and Thirsk and just a hop off the A1M1. There is also good cycling from the house on fairly flat/minor road and plenty of space to store bikes. Suzy the owner is fabulous, contacting you before and during your stay to make sure all is well. All in all a truly wonderful location/house to provide the backdrop for a get together and where special memories can be made. Highly recommended.

    It’s a wonderful place. Just for your information: the water dispenser in the fridge is broken which didn’t really affect us but you may need to replace it. The outside guttering is blocked so rain water cascades outside the French door where the hot tub is. Hope you had a good journey home, and a Happy Christmas. Regards Janys Cliff

    Hi Janys So glad you enjoyed your time at Green End House. Thank you for the feedback. We have now rectified the issues you highlighted. We hope to see you again Suzy Property Owner

    It is so well situated. The kitchen/dining/living space is so warm and comfortable. It is extremely well-equipped. We wanted for nothing. There are so many rooms that provided enough space for everyone to be able to spread out and enjoy the house. The hot tub was fabulous. Much bigger than many. Everyone loved the house and gardens. The table tennis table was very well used too! It snowed when we stayed there and it was absolutely magical. The children loved playing in the garden that wrapped right around the house. Many wonderful memories made!

    It’s a beautiful, spacious house, ideal for large family groups. The kitchen/ dining area is extremely spacious with all the equipment you could possibly need or want. The two large cupboards of games were very welcome on bad weather days, as were the table tennis, basketball and table football. Communication with Suzy the owner was also excellent. We would very happily return.

    So was the surrounding areas. The only problem the party encountered was the hot tub became unuseable from the Tuesday evening and never regained its clarity and temperature. This was a disapointment to the younger members of our group.

    Dear Graham. Thank you for your feedback. It is disappointing that there was a problem with the hot tub and a shame that you didn't contact me to rectify it. We have an amazing team that deal with any issues like this and have never had any such issues before. I will look into this matter to ensure it does not happen again.

  • "We had a wonderful holiday at Green End House."

    The house was exactly as pictured, spotlessly clean and there was so much space for us all. The cupboards full of games, books and dvds were brilliant for rainy days and the table tennis table was a huge hit. The bbq and hot tub were also much appreciated! The village was perfectly placed for some lovely days out at Brimham Rocks, Lightwater Valley and Thorpe Perrow. The local pub - just a five minute stroll from the house - was super friendly with tasty, reasonably priced food for all the family. Notes for the owner: We would have liked a working dvd player in the super comfy red room- we couldn't get the telly to work in there at all; instructions for how to work the dishwasher in the utility room (loaded it, then couldn't figure out how to turn it on!) and Mum says to mention that the en-suite door in the second bedroom doesn't stay shut. These are teeny tiny niggles - our holiday, and the house, were absolutely fantastic and we would love to return someday. Thank you so much for the beautiful house and all of the helpful information you left for us, we had a brilliant time.

    Dear Jane, Many thanks for your lovely feed back. We try super hard to make sure everything is perfect for our guests, but occasionally something is missed. The en suite door has been fixed as has the TV (missing HDMI lead) and instructions for the 2nd dishwasher are on there way. Thank you. We are really pleased you were able to relax and enjoy your holiday. Kind Regards Suzy Property Owner
