Truly wonderful cottage, set in owners gardens, which were a picture.. Lots of places to sit and relax. Bird feeders were always full of birds inc great spotted woodpecker, what a treat!
Both Shirley and Richard were very helpful, Shirley highly knowledgeable with plants etc. All major attractions were easily accessible. Local restaurants were very good, Chinese--New inn, Huby,  Steaks etc The Oak Tree Inn, Helperby. and Italian--Valentinos Ripon.      Wonderful rural location away from all noise.  We had a marvelous relaxing, restful time. Would certainly book again
