A lovely little cottage. Like a home from home. Everything you could need for a short stay is provided. The bed is comfy and in the winter it's warm as well. The hot tub is perfect nice and private. The village is a nice little area the pizza shop is perfect but a must visit is the robin hood pub. It's the perfect place for exploring the surrounding areas and it's somewhere I'd come back too.

Wow where can I start with this lovely cottage! We have had a lovely time and have really enjoyed our stay (gutted to be going home tomorrow). I cannot recommend this place enough, it’s set out lovely and the hot tub is an absolutely amazing bonus! We love the fact that the hot tub area is private and also locked off so that our pup could roam whilst we managed to relax and unwind, just what we have needed after not having a holiday or getaway for the last 3 years. Thank you so much for making the place so welcoming with the bottle of wine, biscuits and treats for our pup upon us entering the cottage, lovely added touch which we really appreciate. Will definitely recommend to family and friends and hopefully we will return in the future. Thank you Mike, Nat and Rio (the staffy pup)

Couldn't recommend this place enough, after having to cancel plans for my partners 30th in June we decided to book this for belated celebrations and I'm so happy we did.. The cottage was in a lovely little village with a pub within walking distance. We spent most of the days exploring the area and then the evenings were spent in the hot tub relaxing. My partner also proposed to me during our stay which made it extra special. We also visited the pub a few times for a drink and food which was delicious and really reasonably priced. The owner of the cottage was lovely, we called the day before to confirm when we would be arriving and were greeted with a bottle of wine and shortbread which was a really lovely touch. If you want a break where you can just switch off and explore the beautiful Yorkshire countryside this is the perfect place.. we would definitely return!

Miss Andrews, September 2020

Cottage was lovely and had everything we needed.. Hosts were friendly but not intrusive and the wine and shortbread they left for us was a lovely touch. Cottage is in a lovely area and has it's own parking spot which was great, however the biggest bonus for us was the fantastic hot tub which was completely private and was so relaxing after days out.

Beautiful little cottage with all the facilities we needed for a week away.. The hot tub was amazing and super clean, definitely well looked after. We found the location really good and it allowed us to have a good base to explore the surrounding areas. Although we didn't meet The hosts in person we received excellent communication from them before and during our stay. The welcome gifts that met us on arrival were so thoughtful and very much appreciated. Our holiday was so relaxing and just what we needed. Thank you!

Miss Burke, August 2020

We booked and then in-between lock down we got a dog.. I contacted the property owners and asked if he would be okay to come. They were more than happy to have him they said. We arrived to a welcome treat for us and the dog. We spent all of our evenings in the hot tub after a day out. It was truly a beautiful little cottage. We were lucky enough to meet the owners and chat on the drive who were lovely always asked how our day was. And was always happy to give us any recommendations, on days out and places to eat.

Booked for a late getaway for a week, this cottage didn't fail to disappoint. On arrival Guy met us and showed us the hot tub and explained the parking. Anything else we needed we just had to ask, very friendly and helpful approach. The cottage itself had everything and suited us, our little dog loved it. Very clean and tidy and very warm. Enjoyed our numerous trips off with the hot tub in the evening all-in all an excellent stay would highly recommend

Mr Davies, March 2020

Excellent accommodation with welcoming hosts.. Really cosy and comfortable, very warm with the added bonus of a hot tub at the end of a busy day. All in all a great week was had by all, highly recommend this place

We booked to stay at The White House very last minute as we lost our previous holiday booked through Thomas Cook! We were so happy to get somewhere in the first place and so our expectations were not high but we were very happy with our stay. The cottage was easy to find and the directions given were simple. When we arrived Guy and Emma had left us a bottle of wine which was a lovely touch. The cottage itself was very cosy and quiet. Our elderly dog Yazmin had a lovely time and settled in quickly. The information provided at the cottage about the surrounding area was also very helpful. Overall we had a lovely unexpected trip away and would certainly stay again!

This was brilliant.. The owners kept in touch and let us know about the local area. Hot tub is fantastic. We locked the keys out of the car and been from Harrogate was unable to get into the car. Luckily someone fetched the keys over at 8 after arriving at 3. Thank goodness for the bottle of wine that was left by the owners, lovely touch. Cosy and warm.

Lovely quirky cottage, clean and well appointed, hot tub the icing on the cake.. Good location to explore Yorkshire and the wolds. Well run by a great family, will definitely be returning for another visit .

Fetherston

We felt the cottage was tired looking inside .. Expect same as at home or even better . It was very basic . Plates etc old ..no outside area , other than sitting on driveway looking at walls . Hot tub area okay , all walled . Sorry but we were disappointed .

Mr Webb

The only thing we could fault is the cooker firstly could only use one of the two rings with the oven or grill or both rings and no oven or grill we understand it is only a small kitchen but felt this did let the rest of the property down ..

Mr Edge

April 2018

The accommodation was very quirky, in a renovated cottage, furnished to a high standard.. The hot tub in its secluded location was exceptional. The little touches by the owners also made a difference, with a bottle of wine & biscuits awaiting us on arrival.

The hot tub was absolutely great and the local pub did great food too ! The owners Guy and Emma are very helpful and are always at the end of the phone if you need them, they also left us a bottle of Prosecco as a welcome gift which was a lovely touch. We would recommend this cottage to anyone and will definitely be returning.

We had such a lovely time. The owners of the cottage were really friendly. The cottage itself was lovely and clean and well stocked with everything we needed.

My girlfriend & I had our first holiday away together here and it was a great find. Ideal place to stay in close enough to loads of great places. Hot tub was brilliant to sit in with the snow falling on your heads (but not feeling it... Until you get out!). Would love to stay again, couldn't really have asked for more.

Mrs Ward

July 2012

The owners were extremely helpful. They gave me all sorts of advice, printed out maps and bus schedules for me, and even gave me a couple of lifts into the nearest town. They invited me to their son's christening party and overall made me feel very welcome. The people there, in Middleton, were very kind and helpful. There were all sorts of little walks to go on that they had told me about. It was peaceful and relaxing. It exceeded my expectations.

Ms Yeldon

We enjoyed the comfort and location of the cottage - it was very quiet and peaceful and it is definitely highly recommended. Our hosts were very welcoming and helpful, they were there if we needed them - a lovely couple. Thank you, we hope to see you both again.
