The location is ideal and parking is good. A holiday home we would like to visit again.
Allison
The cottage is extremely well equipped, warm, inviting and comfortable. The location is a very short walk to the square in Helmsley. It was lovely to meet Helen the owner of the property, her reassurance that if we had any issues with the property, we could contact her - no contact was necessary. We had a great holiday and would certain return to Castle View.

It was one of the few pet permitted places we have stayed that is genuinely pet friendly! It was exceptionally clean with lots of nice extra touches, and no skimping on the heating! Everything was well thought out, and all needs catered for. The owner Helen was lovely, and very attentive. We had a fantastic time and would love to return in the future. A little gem in a beautiful location.
