We arrived in York and were very pleasently suprised as to how beautiful the cottage was as well as the surrounding area. It was well furnished with a brilliant shower and all the comfort and style you could hope for, we were kept very warm and cosy and will be visiting again for sure. David was a great host, popped in when we arrived to answer any questions we may have had about the local area, and even left some biscuits for when we arrived. Thanks

We had a fantastic week. The cottage was wonderfully cosy and beautifully presented. David’s welcome was very warm, making sure we had everything we needed, and he was a great host, ensuring he was on hand to help if we had any questions or needed anything. It’s in a beautiful location and a great jumping off point to explore Yorkshire - with some great local pubs nearby!! Thanks again

I stayed at Fairfax cottage with 3 friends for a few nights. The place was absolutely spotless and David was so helpful. He made sure to check we’d settled in ok and lent us some local maps and walking routes. It was lovely to stay somewhere so peaceful. Would recommend David’s place to anyone staying in the area!

Thanks so much for a lovely stay and all your guidance!
David is friendly, easy to communicate with and always respond to enquiries timely. The house is clean, spacious, comfortable and well equipped. The furnishing is bright and cozy yet parts of it leaves a historic touch. It's located in a tranquil countryside, you can have leisure walks nearby, or it's good as a base to explore the bigger North York Moors.

Lovely comfortable, cosy cottage in great location.

Lovely semi detached cottage set in the farmland scenery. Really friendly hosts who own the nicest dog ever. There’s a little mini stall on the road towards there which sells fresh bread which is handy. If you need more bits then Easingwold has lots to offer. Tesco delivery found their way there no problem.

David is a great host. Cottage was immaculate and well maintained. We wanted to walk and David provided us with a great range of maps and was very friendly. The rooms of the cottage were all a good size. I’m 6ft plus had to duck a fraction, but didn’t bump my head the whole week so not an issue. Easy to park and a nice garden. Not David’s fault but the road near the cottage is quite busy and not that great to walk along other than that all good

Chomeley is a charming, comfortable, relaxing cottage. It’s rural location belies how accessible it is to a host of attractions, beautiful villages and of course York. It was great to be able to drive there on “B” roads, enjoying the views and still only taking around 25 minutes. Our hosts were welcoming, informative and accessible without being intrusive. A wealth of local knowledge worth tapping in to. The cottage was immaculate, not lacking in any amenities or equipment that we could identify. Lovely spacious kitchen, lounge, bedrooms and to end our sunny days, sitting in the garden enjoying bird song and sheep bleating was wonderful. I only feel guilty that we spent more time being tourists and less time simply enjoying being in the cottage but it really was a delight. Thanks again Pam and David, only wish we could have stayed another week. Thoroughly recommend dinner at The Durham Ox in Crakye.........for those with a hearty appetite! Top tip if you’re a blue badge holder. Parking in York is free.

Felt like home from the moment we walked in. Lovely cottage and so peaceful and restful. The only sounds were the sheep in the surrounding fields. The cottage was equipped with everything you need if you decide to stay in and cook. Our host was very helpful and David suggested some beautiful walks in the local area. All in all highly recommended.

A lovely place to stay and ideal for exploring the North Yorkshire coast, Howardian Hills and places of interest such as York, Fountains Abbey and Brimham Rocks ( a huge hit with our kids!). David was very welcoming and helpful with suggestions on where to go and allowing us a last minute extra person. The girls loved bottle feeding the lamb! The house was clean, adequately supplied with crockery and cooking items etc. and the beds comfortable. Would highly recommend as a place to stay and would return if ever back in North Yorkshire. Thank you David for a wonderful week!
Private feedback:
We have had such a lovely week. Thank you for allowing the girls to feed the lamb. Will recommend to others as your location is ideal for exploring the area.

A charming cottage with its own garden in a rural setting. Comfortable, clean and well equipped. Good for exploring the countryside. A range of places around half an hour away eg Helmsley, Byland Abbey, Sutton Bank and the White Horse. Just over an hour to the coast. Friendly and helpful host. Recommended.

We loved staying in Fairfax. Meticulously clean and very comfortable, it was a great base to explore the area: we had a fantastic time at the National Centre for Birds of Prey in Helmsley and the kids loved the boats, adventure playground and miniature train in Newby Hall's lush gardens. The bathroom and kitchen in the cottage have had a refurb recently - all sparkling new - but also with everything you could need. We had fantastic weather so sitting outside on the patio in the sun enjoying the flowers in the garden was a real treat too. We hope we get the chance to stay again!

What a great pleasure to find a great host and a lovely place for our family stay after a year of lockdown. The kitchen and bathroom are completely new , we were the first guests after the refurbishment. David is a real nice host , very easy to communicate with. We were his second French guest in 35 years. Hope we won’t be the last one cause it’s really a gem in nature.
