Set in Middlethorpe, you’ll be surrounded by countryside and just a ten-minute drive from York. When in the country though, take the leisurely option and spend the morning walking into town through parks and along the idyllic river – it only takes about forty minutes to get to the heart of the medieval city. Back at home, you’ll find a renovated cottage that was formerly old stables for the village manner. It’s been finished with luxury and comfort in mind – plush sofas, a convenient kitchen and a round dining table by the window. The bedrooms are both welcoming and cosy, with soothing lavender walls. End the evenings with a long soak in the built-in tub, ideal after a day on your feet.
