JANETTE F.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Direction for finding the property and for check in were absolutely perfect.This property is beautiful. Parking was ideal for our 3 cars, and the location to York is great.Nearby Pocklington has some amazing coffee shops and delicatessens which will be ideal if you want food in the property.Just a couple of things would have made it 100%…No connection to the furthest bedroom for Internet was an issue, as was the lack of TV signal….easily rectified with a signal booster in the hall.Perhaps leave a few more logs for the log burner as we ran out…you did need this lit for the colder weather as the air source heating isn’t the most effective. Also the bedrooms became really condensated too, especially in the mornings. We didn’t use the hot tub as it was a log burner type and as we were only there for 3 nights, it was too much of a hassle to fill it with water (it’s left empty) and then heat it…not sure if there were chemicals there though?On a positive note though, the welcome hamper was amazing and really thoughtful, the cottage was lovely and each bedroom wasn’t a step down from each other…they were all amazing rooms with their own bathroom. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place..
