  Beautiful cottage in which to spend Christmas

  Left on 01/18/2013 for a stay in December 2012
  
  

  After a dismal journey from Hertfordshire, my daughter, son-in-law and I arrived at the Cart Shed feeling tired and jaded. We were met by the owners who welcomed us cheerily. The cottage was even better than we had expected with every possible convenience and real luxury. The heating was more than adequate so that we were soon warm. Unfortunately the dishwasher had been out of operation for a while and the previous visitors hadn't washed up very well so we had to wash cups before we could have a drink and plates before our evening meal. Nevertheless the kitchen was very well fitted and spacious enough for us all to be involved in the cooking. The beds were extremely comfortable and we all slept well.
  
  My son-in-law's family live in and around York so we were able to see them all from our comfortable base at the cottage.
  
  All it lacked was an open fire to compensate for the awful weather, and some recognition that it was Christmas. Other cottages we have rented at this time of year have had a Christmas tree and some holly - a small expense to make it extra special.

  Lovely peaceful weekend

  Left on 01/17/2013 for a stay in November 2012
  
  

  We stayed at the cart shed in early November for a long weekend. It's pure luxury! Lovely spacious bedrooms,nice open plan kitchen,fantastic views, would definitely recommend.the only gripe I had was when my 5 year old son saw a swing in the garden and went on it and suddenly a very unhappy and grumpy man appeared saying its his garden ! Well how was my 5 year old son supposed to know that ?! I'm sure we can't have been the first to have had this problem and I think it needs addressing , apart from that it was a fantasic weekend.

  Little relaxing gem in the countryside!

  Left on 05/17/2012 for a stay in February 2012
  
  

  The cart shed was furnished to a very high standard, with good views over fields. Easy 20 mins walk along a not too busy road into the nearest village, which has lots of history, great walks, great cafe and even better whisky shop! Highly recommended!
