MUST STAY! The most wonderful cottages, hosts and area
Wow! These cottages are BEAUTIFUL. Helen and Dave were the most wonderful hosts and couldn’t have been more helpful both in the run up to and during our stay.
The cottages are beautiful, clean and cosy and have just what you need for a week/ weekend away. The set up is fantastic too - each house has its own living space, bathroom and kitchen but there’s enough space to congregarte in one living room if needed. In summer the outside would be perfect!
In terms of things to do in the are - there’s plenty from walks to the quaint village centre with pubs and shops. We went to the White Swan, Ampleforth and La Trattoria, Helmsley for dinner and Barkers Cafe - which I’d highly recommend. We also booked Anne Little for a Zumba class in Harome village hall too - great laugh for something a bit different!
Really highly recommend Sproxton cottages and would definitely return ourselves!! Thanks to Dave and Helen
