“I can only recommend beech cottage.”

It is a very comfortable quaint annex the owners are very friendly. We are highly likely to stay there again in the future. It is in an ideal location to explore the Yorkshire Dales and north York Moors National Park. Close to York too.

“It's such a lovely location and we received a really friendly welcome.”

The cottage was the perfect size for us with two adults and a five month old baby. There's a lovely big bath and powerful shower too. You can walk out from the cottage onto the farm, where there a chickens, ducks and a pigmy goat. We brought our own pillows with us which made for a comfy night sleep, though pillows are also provided for those who are less fussy!

“Can't wait to go back”

Ignore the earlier ne'ersayer out-of-date review from 2014 - this little cottage rocks our boat. If you're looking for a touring base for the East Riding of Yorkshire, Beech Cottage ticks all the boxes. A fifteen minute drive from York (hint: take the park and ride bus it's cheaper than parking in York) and the Whitby is just 40 mins away. Anyway, Beech Cottage features a really , and I mean REALLY, comfy bed in the bedroom, a mega-superpowered shower in the large bathroom as well as a bath. Ample cooking room in the kitchen/lounge area and the large entrance porch is warm in summer and somewhere to ditch rainwear the rest of the year. Oh, and the Wi-FI worked fine in all rooms. Owners are next door and very friendly, as is their resident basset hound. Now, it's a working farm so expect farm noises, smells, cows, goats, chickens. If you can't handle this really shouldn't be there (which is good as it means we can go up again without you booking it before us!)

“Beautifully furnished and great for romantic getaways.”

The underfloor heating works like a charm and the bathroom is clean and modern. However, the sofa is rather low, as is the entrance to the bathroom (situated under a supporting beam). The WiFi is patchy, bring along a laptop for the best reception, mobile devices such as phones and tablets barely work, you get the best reception downstairs. The window in the bathroom does not have any curtains or blinds, we placed a pillow over the window to ensure our privacy. Under the stairs is the heating system which emits a loud hissing sound constantly, regardless of whether the underfloor heating is on or not, sound is less noticeable upstairs. Overall a great location with access to the York park and ride, great seeing the wildlife in the farm every morning.

“Cute charming cottage”

We stayed here for a week. The cottage is an annex to the farmhouse. The farmhouse is occupied by a couple with a baby girl and two little dogs. It is exactly as described and what you see is what you get. The shower is powerful. The only criticism is that the wifi was quite patchy on mobile devices but connected a bit better on the laptop. The owner was friendly and welcoming. There were two cute little goats in the garden. At night deer roam the track to the cottage. All part of the charm. The cottage is a short drive to Stamford Bridge or about a 50 min walk. York is about 30 min drive away.

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.
