Beautiful property in a gorgeous part of the world. Loved the amazing views - so peaceful to sit outside with a cup of tea and a book and just sink into the view. The cottage was very well appointed and the welcome basket was much appreciated. Would highly recommend.
Had a wonderful day at Five Acres. The area is spectacular, especially enjoyed the recommendation of The Owl at Hawnby. The property did not disappoint at all and was extremely comfortable for me and my family and our two little dogs. The host was great and really appreciated the little welcome back. I’m sure we’ll be back.
