The cottage was very well located, and having offroad parking was appreciated particularly as the flying Scotsman was running on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway and attracting admirers. There were a couple of things that could have been better, for example, two of the three shower heads were leaking badly from the rear and need replacing. Also it seemed that the duvet on the king sized bed was not big enough as it was the same size as the mattress. However these niggles aside i would have given it 5 stars. I would definately stay here again.
