Mrs Oconnor February 2020

“The location and space of the property were great and for the price we paid it was a bargain.”

We felt it was safe and private and looked out on to fields. The shower was a good shower and nice to get the two bathrooms. The biggest let down was That there was a funny smell that greeted us, we turned off all the plug ins (that I think was making the smell worse) we then went and bought some disinfectant some fabreeze fabric cleaner and some scented candles. By our 2nd evening the smell went so I can only think was a cleanliness issue. It just needs a really good clean and maybe some updating.

“Excellent Pet Friendly and Comfortable Place to Stay”

This was our 2nd visit to The Parlour and our stay was just as good as the 1st time. There were a few changes in the property - the ensuite bathroom has been changed, shower was larger but sink was smaller but fine if just to wash your hands, there is always the sink in the bathroom if want to use that instead. There is also a double shower over the bath in the bathroom which I loved, this was a great help having 4 adults in the property. One of the settees had been replaced and there was an addtional chair - the seating is very comfortable which is a bonus as I've stayed in placed before where this hasn't been the case. Love the large kitchen - mine would fit in there twice over. There are a few things I feel would be just a small improvement: As there are a lack of hooks to hang coats etc on, a coat stand or rack in hall or kitchen would be ideal, also on the back of bathroom and bedroom doors. The en suite bedroom does not have a wardrobe, so more coat hooks on the wall would be a bonus. A hoover as having a dog, it's difficult to brush the hairs up especially from the rug. Apart from this, the Parlour is a perfect place to stay. Its location is so quiet and peaceful and has a lovely view over looking the fields. Its in an ideal place for days out to York, Beverley, the coast and only a short drive into Pocklington. Looking forward to returning again next year.

“It was a very impersonal visit - there was no contact with the owner.”

The internet was totally unreliable. The wash basin in the en-suite was microscopic and the shelf immediately above rendered it unusable. There was no hanging space in the en-suite bedroom. The wardrobe in the twin bedroom (used by my 4 year old) was not fixed to the wall and was therefore unstable. There were several key kitchen utensils missing. The cottage was for six people but there was only a two-slice toaster and four outside chairs. There was no information relating to the cottage. We did leave these comments in the 'Visitor Book' but we noticed that several previous sheets had been ripped out - the owner obviously does not like any criticism. We have rented many cottages in France and this cottage falls well below their standard.

“General cleanliness very poor.”

Property wasn't cleaned on arrival. We had to do the cleaning ourselves to make it habitable. No remote for TV. No hanging space in general for clothing. No cupboards in the en-suite and only one shower for four adults not a great start every morning. And cheat to say that if the property needed a deep clean people would be charged. Think the owner need to start taking notice of customer comments in there book and think you should check the properties that you are advertising. Won't recommend this property.
Mr Atkinson March 2019

“Shower to on suite, totally unacceptable,.”

a simple washer and shower head would have solved this. Décor to Bathroom needs updating as does the flooring. Grout heavily stained.. Water to property is fine unless you operate/use the bath at the same time as sink tap, which means the sink tap wont work for hot demand. Evening of second night Consumer board tripped out on switching a light on, did this on four occasions,...couldn't get hold of anyone so had to rectify myself, No hanging area for on.suite bedroom for clothes apart from a normal coat hook x 3, Lighting problem needs to be sorted as keeps tripping out. Back door sticks and is difficult to open at times and to lock. Only One tv to the whole 3 bedroomed cottage which isn't viable if you have children or a second couple staying in this cottage. The good things are the view the kitchen is good, and beds are ok. Was a great shame as it looked great on the outside,
Mr Boothroyd February 2019

“Great little cottage in a quiet village.”

Local amenities not too far away, 10 minutes to an Aldi or Sainsbury’s. 20 minutes to a park and ride into York, very good prices. Beautiful views, and nice country walks available. Lots of activities nearby, we had 4 children with us and managed to visit Eden camp, the Yorkshire air museum, Jorvik, Clifford tower and spent two days at York’s Viking festival watching re enactments and live history events. Kids loved it and so did we, I would highly recommend this as a place to stay.
