  Honeybee Cottage was the perfect haven while we moved house.

  Beautifully clean and it was well stocked with everything you could need to make the stay easy and very comfortable.The welcome pack was a wonderful surprise too, great after a long journey it set you up with a nice cup of tea and snack. The home owner Vicky was really helpful and accommodating and we were really grateful for the text reminder for the refuse calendar over Christmas, it was great to see a house manual with such good instructions included too, no scratching your head wondering how anything worked. The cottage is in a great location overlooking the River Ure with a good walk in to town. Ripon itself has easy access to all routes and well covered on the shopping front. Booths supermarket is a particular treat and there are some lovely small independent shops. The Cathedral is glorious and further afield The Druids Temple was surrounded by great woodland walks and views out over the surrounding countryside. I wish we had had more time in better weather to explore further as the cottage make a great base to head out from but we’ll have to leave that for another time.

  The cottage was a delight.

  The welcome pack was a really nice touch and the homemade jam was gorgeous. The cottage was very clean throughout and the cleaner deserves to be personally thanked. The cottage was spotless. We loved the shower and the rear garden sitting out area. The bed was very comfortable and we had very restful nights. We loved the wooden shutters and the wood burner. We used it once on one chilly evening, but didn't need any wood. Burning the coal that was made up for us, was enough to take the chill away for an hour or so before bedtime. We understood that the cottage had access rights through the neighbours garden (like we do at our own home), but we didn't need to use that rear access. The weather was really good for our holiday break and our dog's feet were cleaned up and dried with towels (provided) at the front of the house. People in the village were very friendly, especially the young man in the stone house to the left beyond Ascot.

  This was a really lovely holiday cottage.

  Every single thing you could think of had been provided (other than facility to do washing) and the use of space had been very well thought out. The steps up to the property and the steep stairs would rule it out for someone not physically able but after I'd got my heavy case up the stairs it was fine (smaller cases would have been better). The only thing I was missing was either a washing machine or spinner and outside line. As I was travelling for 3 weeks, I really needed to wash a few things to keep me going. I found the village delightful, the people were very friendly and the number of walks for myself and my little dog right from the door were amazing. We went to Malton (super dog friendly), York and the wonderful Castle Howard. All within easy reach.

  If there are ever very cosy cottages, then Black Sheep Cottage is certainly one.

  It is compact, exceptionally clean and very comfortable. The kitchen is very well appointed, the lounge is very comfortable, and the bedrooms are spaciously adequate and very comfortable. The ability to park outside is a bonus - no parking in the marketplace, which is a mere five minute walk away. Throughout, there is the "theme" of Swaledale sheep, very topical for the area. We were very surprised, and grateful for a "goodie" bag of gifts - thank you very much (not sure if this is customary - we were there over New Year). Thirsk is a bustling town with many shops, pubs and restaurants to choose from and not to mention the beautiful scenery at close hand. We had a very enjoyable New Year at Black Sheep Cottage

  He size and layout of the property and garden were good, also welcome basket.

  We had no contact from the owner & there was no info or phone no. given. Some of the items were ultra modern & had no instructions. We had been there for 4 days before we realised that you could control bedroom lights with remote control which just had letters on! The heating came on at odd times 7.45am & 8.45pm for a short time and we couldn't get any heat from the electric fire (could operate backlighting & artificial flames but nothing else). The toilet seat fixings need replacing, we tried to tighten but did not work. Wifi connection very poor and the one sofa was very low, not easy to get up from if you are elderly. Sorry.
