Amazing review thank you !! I’m thrilled you all loved everything about your stay and found the property comfortable and well equipped. We would love to host you again.
Tithe Cottage is very clean and nicely equipped. We especially enjoyed the sunny sitting room that opens into the enclosed back yard garden.The location was perfect for exploring my family's ancestoral village and Spofforth Castle. We enjoyed a day York, plus a visit to Betty's in Harrogate.There is easy access to delightful countryside walking paths. The Kirkby Overblow local pub, Shoulder of Mutton, is within a quite short walking distance. It's very welcoming, with great food.Thanks to Charlie for hosting us at Tithe Cottage. We would come again!

Thank you for your lovely review.I'm so pleased you an your children enjoyed your stay and we would love to welcome you back in the future. Many thanks.
Everything was fine apart from what we thought was a safety hazard . In the twin bedroom there were 2 unsecured glass metal framed large pictures above the bed heads which had they fallen would of caused injury. We removed the one above my bed for the duration of our stay and left it on the bed with an explanation note otherwise we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Hi Anne
We will look into the safety hazard that you felt the pictures posed. We would never want anyone to be injured in one of our properties.
We're so happy that you thoroughly enjoyed your stay with us.
The house was very nice and the village as well. You definitely need a car since there is nothing nearby except for the local pub.
The TV was not working when we arrived but it was just a cable connection under a carpet that I could fix myself after some detective work. We didn't manage to get the towel dryers to work and couldn't find any book with instructions for the house.
We found two Atlantic sender units where one needed new batteries but they were not connected to the towel rails as they should be or possibly there was no electricity to the towel rails at all.
The kitchen was great with everything you needed and it was lovely to sit outside in the morning for breakfast when the sun was shining.
Very good to have multiple bathrooms and the car parking.
