A lovely place with absolutely everything that you could need! So well stocked and the kids were pleased with individual spaces to watch tv or play games. My son was particularly impressed with the x box and getting up early to play it! All the beds were comfy and we all slept so well. Absolutely no outside noise at all. Such a well thought out place, the owners must be proud of their achievements with this one! A lovely touch with the bottle of prosecco too!

We wanted a comfortable dog friendly cottage in a quiet location but with easy access to visit surrounding areas. Church view was perfect. The cottage is very spacious and has absolutely everything you would need a proper home from home. It was clean and comfortable. The village is quiet as it is a dead end so no passing traffic which was ideal for us with a dog. Lots of different walks were easily accessed from the village and enjoyed good views along the river. The village pub is an Italian restaurant with a lovely dog friendly beer garden. Good quality food. Although no village shop the pub stocks some essential items for sale. The town of Howden is less than 10 mins drive away which has plenty of shops for stocking up. We needed to contact the owners on the first day to clarify something and they responded quickly. We had a perfect week and would not hesitate to book again.

Excellent Thought of every little comfort that anyone would need to make their visit special. Dogs loved the garden and playing with all the toys that were left for them.
