About this cottage rental

This recently renovated cottage is in a block of six lovely cottages which used to house the old stables for the village manor. You will have exclusive use of the cottage for the duration of your stay. The renovation of the cottages has been done with your comfort and enjoyment in mind. You can expect lots of character and luxury finishes with contemporary decoration. There is a Smart TV for cosy nights in, access to WiFi as well as iPod docking speakers. The cottage has two really comfortable bedrooms designed for a peaceful nights sleep - leaving you refreshed and ready for a day of exploring either the local countryside or the historic city of York

The walk to York, through the parks, alongside the river is idyllic and takes approx. 40 minutes. The cottage, set in this quiet and tranquil location is a hidden gem on the outskirts of town. Perfect for couples, solo adventurers, business travellers, and families alike.

The property has a double bed in one of the bedrooms and the other has the flexibility to be set as either a king or twin beds upon request. Please note the bed will be set as a double as standard unless you have specifically requested twin beds.

Parking for 1 car available onsite. Please note the EV charger is a 3 pin version so you would need the correct cable for this.

A perfect location to be able to easily get into York City and then escape to the peace and quiet of the cottage. A pleasant well presented well equipped little cottage perfect for 2 to stay with only a few useful items missing from the kitchen but not a deal breaker. The outdoor seated space was a great addition, weather permitting, but a parasol needed ideally for the table area. Just a couple of areas for improvement, beds compfy but mattresses possibly need replacing soon. Stair posts of banister need deep clean (dirt layer entrained on wood) but otherwise very clean generally with only cobwebs to be excepted in countryside cottage. Excellent customer service both before and after with help to return items accidentally left at the property. Would most certainly recommend for a short stay if like us you don’t want to be in the hustle and bustle of the city but have an escape with easy taxi/bus access to see York Minster, go to Bettys, stroll The Shambles and a meal at The Star Inn the City also recommended.

We have enjoyed our stay in cottage no 6. It's very quiet and well equipped property. Unfortunately we have found that few areas needed better cleaning. Dust on the top of the wardrobe, cobwebs in the top floor bathroom and by the entrance doors, coffe machine hasn't been cleaned properly, mugs badly washed and several cracked. Overall the property has a lovely, homely feeling and we believe the above mentioned discrapencies can be rectified. We would definitely recommend this property and come back as the location was perfect for us.

Nice cottages, but for the price expect a little bit extra. Filter coffee pot needed to be cleaned, no cafetière and sounds in the roof at night.

This place is so lovely, it looks exactly as it does in the pictures online. Check in is easy, everything perfect there and the response to issues raised with the team was immediate and professional. My only complaint is the cleanliness. Things like the toilet and the rooms were very clean but there were a lot of cobwebs and spiders everywhere!! I’m afraid as a soft southerner I simply could not relax. There were little bugs (really tiny) on all the curtains too and a couple on the pillows, maybe just a symptom of being in the country but as I said I just couldn’t relax. Cobwebs were in every corner, behind things like the toilet and in the little alcoves on the kitchen surfaces. There were also crumbs between the cushions on the sofa. Essentially a playground for daddy long legs and spiders! If you’re cool with that then this place is so beaut but sadly I couldn’t really enjoy it personally! Such a shame.

This is a really well priced accommodation for single and family business travellers. It has excellent parking and security. Road access is brilliant for both city and bypass. Very quiet and peaceful, loads of storage and nice beds.

Very nice place, definitely an up market feel to everything, very clean and tidy, Just don't park under the huge tree in the car park because if it rains, as it did one night, the car was covered in a sticky residue that I had to wash off before driving ! But overall highly recommended.

We had a very pleasant stay at this wonderful cottage !! It's located a bit out of the city, but if u have a car you can always travel... The staff was very friendly, we had two emergencies, and they addressed it very quickly !!! I think I'd plan another trip to York in summer with my full family, to stay in middlethorpe cottages !!

Can highly recommend the cottage and would definitely stay there on our next visit to York. Peaceful location with easy walk into city centre and on a bus route for those who prefer not to walk.
