This top-quality accommodation is located on the edge of Holtby, a scenic village with pretty walks and cycle rides all around. Just 2 miles away, you’ll have a pick-your-own-fruits spot along with a farm shop and cafe, and a pub for quiet drinks in a pretty setting. Locally, take children to explore the magical wild fairy woodland at Dreamery Gardens at Northwood, or enjoy educational days out (or shopping) in the walled city of York (5.5 miles). With space for four guests, this luxurious holiday home is ideal for a family group or two couples holidaying together.

You’ll reach the property through a charming brick archway. Inside, the open-plan living area is a wonderful space for relaxing, with quality furniture and fittings in gentle creams with wooden accents. The lovely kitchen has gorgeous stone countertops and an apron sink, plus a Nespresso coffee machine for your morning brew. A large dining table sets you up for sociable family meals prepared with local produce. In the cosy living area, relax with your loved ones by the traditional wood burner, perhaps enjoying a film on the Smart TV, before retiring to the king-size and twin bedrooms that are served by a well-appointed family bathroom. Outside, you’ll have a private patio for fresh-air meals. You’re welcome to explore the extensive grounds of the main house, where you’ll find a treehouse for children and resident farm animals.

Nearby, head to local villages like Stamford Bridge (3 miles) or Pocklington (11 miles) for a wander round. You may choose to enjoy a round of golf at one of the four courses located within a 10-mile radius or go walking at Allerthorpe Common or Skipwith Common Nature Reserve (both within 14 miles). York offers so much for visitors, with its racecourse, maze, iconic minster and railway museum.

Excellence across the board: location, peace and quiet, comfort of bedding and sofas, bathroom - especially the magnificent shower! - equipment, decor and general quality. We couldnt have asked for a better break.

Great place to stay, everything you need and more provided. Welcome provisions and homemade scones and jam on arrival. Centrally situated, we used the nearby park and ride to visit York, but also drove to the coast. Would highly recommend.

A most delightful and comfortable cottage. Extremely well equipped and a lovely treat waiting for us with a bottle of wine, cake and bread. Fantastic location so close to York and the park and ride was a great solution to finding car parks. Loved the piggies and our dog loved the orchard to run around in.
