A hidden little gem in the heart of the Yorkshire countryside. Spotlessly clean, well equipped with a lovely lady owner. Judy is warm and friendly, she can’t do enough for you. Highly recommend this idyllic place.

Super cottage in a lovely location
What a fabulous stay! Curlew Cottage is lovely, set in the gardens of the farm. Immaculately kept with everything you need for a relaxing break. Weather was glorious so we were able to take advantage of the outside space and enjoy the sunshine in the evenings. Judy is a warm and welcoming host , making us feel at home with milk eggs and a cake when we arrived. We were able to connect our electric car to the outside power supply for a quick recharge which was a great help between day trips . Overall a super place and will book again. Thank you Judy, and Brutus the friendliest and funniest dog ❤️

Amazing place
We loved staying at Curlew Cottage. It was in a beautiful spot with stunning views. Very rural and peaceful. Just what we wanted. I loved just sitting out and listening to the birds. The cottage itself was clean, with a well stocked kitchen and books and games to choose from too. The private patio was lovely to sit out and have breakfast. Judy was a lovely host and was friendly and very helpful. She gave us some milk and eggs on arrival which was lovely. We were also greeted by Brutus, such a friendly cute dog. There is a great pub at the end of the road for food and drinks. We will definitely be returning. Thank you Judy for a lovely stay

Idyll in Thorganby
Perfect. From the minute we arrived at the pub at the start of the lane everything was perfect. Pub was lovely. Friendly. Cottage at the end of the lane. Just beautiful. The flowers! Stunning display. Our 11 month old labradors quickly settled in and became best friends with Brutus. They had the best time and the most freedom they've ever had. Perfect base for York. Judy was great. We will return. A holiday we will never forget. Just lovely. Thank you.

Excellent facilities with a friendly reception
The cottage presentation and layout was perfect. The bedroom, bathroom and kitchen were first class, clean & tidy. Made a perfect base for our short 4 day visit to Yorkshire. Judy made us very welcome and had provided fresh milk in the fridge, fresh eggs, tea/coffee and biscuits when we arrived, very thoughtful. Would highly recommend these cottages to any potential visitors.

Exactly what we wanted!
The accommodation was lovely - the perfect size for a small group! We were 3 (2adults,one toddler) using the cottage as a base for exploring York and the surrounding area for 4 nights - but we wished we'd had a longer to explore more and spend a day chilling out at the cottage! Our little girl especially was a massive fan of all the chickens and doggies roaming around,and Judy is so lovely and friendly - even kindly giving us an extra 4 pints of milk when we arrived and I realised I'd failed to pack ours from home (oops!) lovely little holiday! Thank you! X

Very welcoming, comfortable and excellently equipped for the perfect and worry free holiday.
Though slightly out of the way it is still close enough to shopping outlets for day to day supplies. Excellently positioned to visit York, Whitby and Ripon.
