Family illness forces travel

Had to travel last minute to Harrogate due to a family illness. Marie-Therese helped us out, booking on the day, having an open ended end date for up to a week, and supporting us through a difficult time. Thank you for all your help!

About the host

Hosted by Marie-Therese Hardy

We started this business in 2017 with the intention of giving our guests a memorable experience by combining some of the best experiences we have enjoyed from our own travels. We love welcoming guests to Harrogate and sharing our love of North Yorkshire. Being born here, I have lived most of my life in Yorkshire. My husband and I met in London and he continues to commute on a weekly basis. We have three adult children, two of whom are married, and a granddaughter. We live nearby so know the area well. We are passionate regarding our guests and ensuring their best possible experience. We personally meet and greet everyone and are on call 24/7, so you can enjoy your stay with complete ease. We are a local Harrogate Family passionately committed to giving our guests the best possible experience. Each of our cottages is individually designed to ensure your comfort. We ensure our guests are personally met to give you the peace of mind that you deserve. We are on call 24/7.

Why they chose this property

We were charmed by the aspect, location, proximity to HIC and sense of space inside of this cottage. We saw its potential as an ideal place for guests to relax and enjoy all Harrogate and the surrounding area has to offer. Artists' Cottage has a front garden with Victoriana Bench, all year. The rear courtyard is enclosed and provides a perfect environment for al fresco dining during the warm summer months. Upstairs are 2 spacious bedrooms which can give single beds in both rooms upon request. We have recently replaced the original staircase so it is less steep. However, stair gates cannot be fitted, so the property is not recommended for young children or anyone with mobility issues. We loved the spacious kitchen/diner but felt it required an up lift - so we added colourful glass, it's easy to keep clean and we upcycled the Ercol dining table, chairs and stools. We hope you like the results.

What makes this property unique

The fact as owners are on call 24/7. We operate a personal check-in service where someone who knows the property and the area personally meets you. All this gives you peace of mind. We are a family business and we work with local people who share our enthusiasm and love of hospitality, from the cleaners, to our marketing, to those who meet and greet. We all know each other and are not just colleagues! The details matter!
We leave fresh milk in the fridge(organic if we can get it), fresh ground coffee, tea bags, coffee pods, biscuits on a tray all ready for your arrival.
Our linens and towels are all professionally laundered to the highest standards and are constantly renewed and upgraded.
Our beds are manufactured by a local company for us, to ensure you have a great night's sleep.
