Very nice cottage. Well stocked with all the amenities you need, including stuff for the kids. Sue was very welcoming on arrival and had even baked some brownies for us. Being on a farm also kept the kids interested with animals and a small play area. Would stay here again.

Spotlessly clean and well equipped. We were a party of 6 and certainly had enough space. Cottage is well situated and very quiet. There is a Woodland off lead dog area about ten minutes away which is worth visiting if you have a dog.

First of all A big thank you to Sue, she is a great host, very helpful and friendly. The Fox Cottage was very cosy - very peaceful and relaxing with everything we needed, including a very nice welcome basket with home made brownies which we enjoyed when we arrived after a very long drive. The Fox Cottage is spacious, very well equipped and well situated not far from York and the North York Moors. The appliances in the house are modern and work very well. We found the beds comfortable, clean and well maintained. The cottage itself was very easy to access with a nice private accessible drive leading to it, off of the main road. The only minor downside was that the Wi-Fi did not reach all areas of the property, and there was no phone signal, but that was not a priority during our stay. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience with great service from the host. I would highly recommend it and would definitely stay again!

Just as wonderful as last visit

This is our second time staying with Sue. We have now stayed at both cottages and both are equally lovely. Very clean and tidy and a feeling of home away from home. Very easy to book and check in. Sue is a top notch host who is very friendly and willing to help us with any questions we had. Overall, our second stay was as delightful as our first stay 5 years ago. Thank you!

Lovely, clean cottage which was convenient for day trips to York and Scarborough. Sue provided essentials such as milk, butter, bread as well as yummy brownies, an unexpected treat! Kitchen had everything we could need. We had plenty of room for our family of five and easy access to nearby towns for groceries and restaurants. Would definitely stay again!

Lovely stay at Fox cottage - highly recommended!

Stayed at Fox Cottage for 2 nights with my partner and her immediate family for her 30th birthday. Sue was the perfect host before and on arrival. She kindly put our celebration banners up ready for our arrival and arranged the home baked cookies along with our welcome basket, which were delicious! The cottage was lovely, spacious and immaculately clean with all the appliances, crockery etc needed for a home from home stay. The availability of the DVD player, wii and games trunk outside in the court yard area were perfect additions that kept the children happy and occupied during our stay. Overall excellent accommodation that made the perfect family break away, all family members would love to stay again! Thanks Sue x

A lovely stay in Yorkshire

We had a lovely time. The cottage was perfect with all the home comforts. On arrival there was a lovely little hamper to get us going including some beautiful cupcakes. It was very comfortable and perfect with great outdoor space, including a some sports equipment including swing ball that our kids loved. The local town of Pocklington was lovely with everything in it along with a lovely market on a Wednesday, and you can walk there along the canal though it is quite a walk. It was also close to York yet the coast wasn't far off either.
