Set on the cusp of the medieval city of York and completely surrounded by the stunning countryside, this gorgeous cottage is the perfect base for families. Offering cosy sleeping spots for four humans and two hounds, the property is tucked down a quiet country lane on the fringes of a chocolate-box village, placing you close to an abundance of exciting walks and activities. The friendly owners have thought of everything to make your stay extra special, including a welcome pack brimming with goodies and some tasty treats for Fido.

Cosy, spacious and equipped with lots of special extra touches, the property has been lovingly decorated in a traditional country-cottage style. Wake up to hearty breakfasts in the welcoming kitchen/diner, planning the day’s itinerary with a pot of fresh coffee and your faithful pooch by your side. The light-filled lounge is an idyllic spot to relax in front of the television, and there’s a stylish downstairs bathroom for long soaks and refreshing showers. Upstairs, the two bedrooms are wonderfully snug with bright decor and soothing views. Rex will love playing in the safely enclosed garden, and there’s ample furniture for you to unwind with afternoon tea on the lawn.

Spend your days sniffing out adventure, venturing into York, 18.5 miles away, to learn about the city’s rich history by wandering cobbled streets, exploring the castle, and feasting like royalty at one of the many friendly eateries. Closer to home, the Lower Derwent Valley National Park is a beautiful place to visit, 0.5 miles away, where you can stroll along the meandering River Derwent, spotting the resident wildlife and watching Rover sniff for rabbits in the tall grass.
