Lovely stay in a great location. Everything we needed for a visit to north yorkshire.Cottage could do with another set of 4 plates, bowls, cutlery and mugs/cups to fill the dishwasher each day. Outdoor cushions could do to be replaced.Idyllic location in the village with lovely enclosed garden which caught the sun at various times throughout the day.
