It is well fitted out, very clean and warm. The view from the cottage is stunning and the pool was an added bonus. An excellent base for visiting Malton, Pickering etc and also for Wolds Way walking.

I can't fault a thing apart from the lack of a washing machine in the kitchen. And my hosts offered me the use of theirs! And the pool is a fantastic amenity! I'll be back if you'll have me.
