Excellent accommodation, spacious, clean and very well equipped, there were 6 of us, away for an early Christmas get together.The cottage was decorated fir Xhristmas, and the kitchen was more than big enough to cook a full dinner.Shops and restaurants in Rasing wold, and very good pubs nearby ( the Durham Ox in Crayke was excellent).Overall a thoroughly enjoyable stay.
Lovely property , and electrical problems dealt with very quickly by the owner.Would have appreciated a couple of dishwasher tablets and a bin liner for when we arrived to start us off but otherwise well equipped and cosy in a beautiful setting.Drive to central York ( shambles ) was around 25/30 minutes ….
