    Ideally placed, in a quiet setting yet within a 5 minute walk into Malton. A well equipped, comfortable and clean cottage. The hilly walk back to 1 School Lane wouldn’t suit everyone. We enjoyed our week’s stay here very much. Also, the people of St Michael’s Church, Malton were very friendly and welcoming.

    Excellent throughout. The owner sets a very high standard. The only comment I might make is that the sofa seating cushions could do with being renewed as they were not very comfortable.
