"Brock House is a lovely place to stay – private, high quality, comfortable, warm and cosy."
We found it very relaxing and it had everything you need for a proper, cosy break. It’s also well located – close to Thirsk and Northallerton, with lovely views over fields into the distance and, if the weather plays ball, great sunsets. I also really appreciated the large towels.
If you’re planning to use the hot tub, be prepared to need extra wood – in winter the complimentary basket wasn’t enough to heat the tub fully, so you’ll likely need to source more. It’s also worth bringing your own kindling/newspaper and firelighters – there was only enough provided for one light. Once we’d sorted the wood, we had a really lovely, relaxing stay.
Thank you very much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful and detailed review. We’re delighted to hear that you found Brock House relaxing, cosy, and well-located, and that you enjoyed the views, sunsets, and overall comfort of the house.
To clarify your point about the logs, all guests receive a complimentary basket, and additional firewood is available for purchase,as stated on the website. We live on site and extra logs can be delivered faster than the hot tub can cool down!
We were sorry to hear that you felt the accuracy of the listing and cleanliness were not quite 5-star, as these are areas we take great pride in. With over 30 five-star reviews in our first year, we always welcome the chance to address any concerns during a stay.
Thank you again for your kind comments, and we’re glad you enjoyed a relaxing break.

"Fabulous property."
We stayed during a few freezing cold days at the start of the new year, but Brock House was warm, comfortable and inviting. Clean, well equipped, private, nice host, all in all pretty faultless. The table football proved a big hit too. Would definitely recommend.

It is a great really well designed property. The owner is super helpful. We all loved it there, especially the monopoly every night.
One of the best places we have stayed in for a while.

"The best UK rental property we've stayed in."
A fantastic designed property set in a quiet location with views across fields from the living area. Everything had been carefully thought through to give this the wow factor. The wood fired hot tub was a nice finishing touch.
Located within easy reach of the dales, the moors and York makes this a great location. Nigel the host was great and we look forward to returning.

"A fabulous place."
The photos don't do Brock House justice. The owner was very welcoming and clearly has an eye for room design. Everything was also spotlessly clean. Great views and watching the sunset from the hot tub was marvelously relaxing. We wanted a week away somewhere that felt special and we got exactly that and more. We had great fun playing table soccer too. I suspect we will be back. A definite 10/10 and a high recommend from me.

"Fantastic holiday home in a beautiful spot."
It sits on the hillside overlooking the valley facing west and the setting sun. Whilst the patio and outdoor seating is great, the bifold doors open up and brings the outdoors in.
The kitchen is comprehensively kitted out with everything you could need and the whole place is thoughtfully done. We will definitely be back.

The place is lovely, really nice finish and luxury feel. Seems everything has been thought about. We used some tupperware that was there, everyday when we went out for the day.
Nigel is a great host and is very approachable and helpful, especially with the hottub.
We will be back.

"Fantastic accommodation and location."
Stunning property, fabulous views, very clean and well presented along with being very comfortable too. Lots of space to rest and relax. We loved our stay and enjoyed coffee each morning out on the patio watching the early morning haze fade and seeing the cows and sheep in the fields. We were spoilt with glorious weather every day too!
I would highly recommend the accommodation and hope to visit again.
