    Very clean and comfortable and the owner was such a nice lady even though we didn’t meet. Welcome basket was a lovely touch. Lovely bungalow in a lovely place. Thank you. ☺️

  • Barbara

    The only slight issue was the wall part of the shower, trying to soap yourself and hold the shower was a bit difficult, otherwise the jet blasted you right in the face!, so better to use the overhead part!

    Returning after a day out it felt like coming home. Beautifully appointed, the kitchen and bathroom looked very new, the beds were comfortable and we had all we needed. We would love to go back. Location is good for visiting many places and a special mention for Ampleforth Abbey which is very close, well worth a visit with a superb coffee shop.
