About this property

Brecks Farm - The Cow Kennels - Sleeps 6

Brecks Farm
Once a working farm and livery, Brecks Farm has been lovingly transformed by owners Guy and Tracey into a charming collection of five beautifully appointed holiday cottages. Combining rural character with modern comfort, every detail has been carefully considered to ensure a relaxing and memorable stay.
Drawing on his background as a skilled joiner, Guy has handcrafted many of the property's unique features, including the stunning bespoke headboards found in the master bedrooms. These thoughtful touches can be seen throughout the cottages, adding warmth, character, and a true sense of craftsmanship to each home.

The Cow Kennels
The Cow Kennels is a spacious and stylish single-storey cottage, perfect for families, couples, or groups of friends looking to explore the historic City of York and the beautiful Yorkshire countryside. Accommodating up to six guests with the addition of a sofa bed in the lounge, this welcoming property offers everything needed for a comfortable getaway.
At the heart of the cottage is a generous open-plan living area, providing the perfect space to relax after a day of sightseeing. The well-equipped kitchen includes everything you'll need to prepare anything from hearty breakfasts to special holiday meals.
The property features two luxurious bedrooms, both of which can be configured as either twin beds or exceptionally comfortable super king-size beds, offering flexibility for a variety of group arrangements. There are also two modern bathrooms: one with a walk-in shower and the other with a bath and shower over.
Step outside and enjoy your own private outdoor space, complete with comfortable seating, a dining table and chairs, and a charcoal barbecue- ideal for al fresco dining on warm Yorkshire evenings.

Why You'll Love Staying at Brecks Farm
The owners have finished these beautifully converted cottages to an exceptional standard, complemented by immaculately maintained grounds and ample on-site parking. With the perfect balance of peaceful countryside surroundings and easy access to York's historic attractions, Brecks Farm offers an ideal base for exploring the very best of Yorkshire.
Many guests find themselves returning year after year, and we're confident you'll understand why.

Electric Vehicle Charging
Each of the five cottages is equipped with its own electric vehicle charging point. The charging points provide a dedicated 16A supply and can be accessed using a standard UK 13A three-pin plug.
Guests are welcome to charge their vehicles during their stay. We kindly ask that a contribution towards the electricity used is left in the cottage upon departure.

Dog-Friendly Stays
Well behaved dogs are welcome at a charge of £20 per dog, per stay. We kindly ask that dogs are not left unattended in the property at any time.
