We had a fantastic time at The Granary. Everything was as described and spotlessly clean. It is in a remote location but that is exactly what we was seeking – perfect peace and quiet. Sarah lives on site and was always available to answer any queries or questions we had. We would highly recommend this accommodation & hope to return at some stage.

Great house & location

The Granary was perfect for our family meet up. Lovely, homely property with everything we needed. The games room was great for keeping the teenagers entertained and we enjoyed playing rounders in the garden. The location was ideal for exploring the local area including York and Flamingo Lnd.

A good sized property with plenty of books, games and puzzles for quiet nights in and an attractive garden. The property was clean but dusty with cobwebs in corners.

Thank you for your review and your feedback. Due to the age and style of The Granary, it is a never ending job dealing with cobwebs but I now have a new feather duster and won’t be defeated.

Great property in an peaceful location

The property was beautifully presented. Well Equipped throughout with the most amazing views. It is well located for York and surrounding areas. Malton which is nearby is a great little town with everything you need. Castle Howard situated a 20 minute drive was a great destination for a day out. Hope to return later in the year!

After a 5 hour drive we were not disappointed when we arrived at the Granary. It’s very spacious and Sarah keeps it well equipped. The games room was a lovely addition along with the log burner. We had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend. Thank you.

Peaceful countryside stay

The property is a lovely old converted granary, once part of a farm. The owner lives in the house and there is another smaller rental property. It is set in beautiful Wolds countryside and is easily accessible to the coast and North York Moors. There are a lot of lovely places to visit and see in the area. The property is comfortable and welcoming. There is a large upstairs lounge and kitchen which is well equipped although there was a problem with the oven which was fixed. Some of the kitchen equipment could benefit from updating but provided all that was needed. The property was clean and well maintained although the dishwasher was dirty on arrival. Although we did not use it the upstairs games room was large and well equipped. There were lovely views across the countryside and it was delightful to sit in the garden for breakfast and dinner and the chairs has nice cushions which was much appreciated. Our host was very helpful and friendly and gave a good welcome. We really enjoyed our stay.

Idyllic adult family getaway in rural Yorkshire.

Loved this fabulous property. Great rural location with stunning views. The sunsets were amazing. Charming and very comfortable with plenty of space inside and out. Lots to do - tennis, croquet, ball games, BBQ outside, and table-tennis, pool inside. Loved the outside dining area and gardens too. Great location to explore Ryedale market towns and the Yorkshire coast. Highly recommend.

Beautiful location, excellent property and an ideal escape from urban mayhem!

"The Granary" is stunning, a really special place to stay! Immaculately presented and with many period features , the "Granary" is superb! The added bonus of views across the farmland and up towards the wooded hills are breath taking and really connect you with nature. To see a Hare in the field right outside your window and the joy of listening to birdsong in the morning makes you realise how special this place is. The peace and quiet throughout the day and in to the late evening makes for very calming , restful and happy times. The games room with a pool table and play station ticked all the right boxes too! Don't forget the stunning sunsets! Wow, so beautiful! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and cannot fault the property or the owners-they have done a stunning job creating an ambience and feeling of being at "home". The property is very well appointed and we found everything we needed. Ideally situated, with Morton only a short drive away and easy access to York, you couldn't ask for more. Highly recommended and we can't wait to come back!

Much needed home from home relaxing stay

The Granary had a rustic charm about it. A lovely welcome pack was left for us with a full basket of logs left for us to use on the log burner. Excellent covid 19 precautions put in place, plenty of hand gel, hand soap to use. Clean fresh bedding and towels. The house is roomy yet cosy. The country side is beautiful, local pubs very good. Lots of places to visit within an hour or less. A great place to stay.
