Was wonderful every thing you needed and lot to do and see in the area. Hemsley is one of the most lovely towns. You are also not that far from the sea. Would highly recommend. Hope to return next year.

Just had a three generation family break together here. Six adults and two toddlers. House was perfect for our needs. It’s large, well equipped and well organised. Secure outside garden space and in drive parking for our three cars a great advantage. The house is brilliantly located being only 5 minutes level walk to the centre/market square. Communication from the hosts was instant. By sheer luck the Round Britain cycle race stage started in Helmsley on the Saturday morning!! Helmsley has plenty of shops, pubs and restaurants all within easy walking distance of the house. Can recommend here.

We had a fantastic family holiday at Holly Garth. The property was absolutely spotless, and it is clear the hosts take great pride in maintaining it. The location is perfect - only a short five-minute walk into the centre of Helmsley. The kitchen was really well equipped with everything we needed, and the communication with the hosts was superb from start to finish. Highly recommended!
