Set nearby the city of York, this charming cottage possesses 200 years of character and is ideal for family and friends to enjoy quality time together in a beautiful setting. Two canine holiday seekers and a group of up to six of their favourite people can make the period cottage and its large gardens their country bolthole, which has been beautifully and sensitively finished to retain its original features. The property is ideally located for exploring the stunning North Yorkshire Moors, coast and beyond.

 

The cosy dining area comes complete with terracotta floors, wood burner and ample dining space for six. In the lounge, find deep, comfy sofas, a second wood burner and antique organ, where you can snuggle up with four-legged family and loved ones to watch your favourite film. Cook some home-crafted fare in a well-equipped modern kitchen, next to which lies plenty of space to store your outdoor gear. A downstairs shower room provides added convenience for tidying up mucky pups. Up the cottage stairs are three spacious bedrooms, the master bedroom sporting a TV, dressing table and built-in storage. Soak a long day away in the free-standing bath in the chic bathroom. Outside, a gorgeous garden welcomes you to pick seasonal fruit, enjoy the clear night skies and indulge in al fresco dining. For extra convenience, find plenty of off-road parking for four cars.

 

Stillingfleet village is steeped in history, with lovely walks on the doorstep spoiling curious canines. Located on the village green, it is just 6 miles from York, where there’s endless opportunities for shopping and dining.

Very pleased with the Ivy Cottage. perfect for dogs with a large garden. A period house with an updated kitchen and bathroom. Perfect for dogs as the house has hard floors throughout. We found a lot of lovely walks.

A really nice cottage in a superb location and with a massive garden. It will accommodate 6 people but probably more suitable for 4/5 people.

We had a lovely week in Ivy Cottage - its a great location and we enjoyed the peace and quiet.

We had so much fun here and made some wonderful memories. It is a beautiful period cottage steeped in history and I love how the decor has been sympathetic to the cottages past. We loved the pictures of the former inhabitants on the walls and the pamphlet explaining the history of the cottage, we went out and found the mass grave of the victims of Read morethe christmas tragedy in 1833 and this for us added to the experience. Some nice biccies and tea was waiting for us on arrival which was a nice touch Hide
