  We love This place!

  Left on 09/13/2012 for a stay in July 2012
  
  

  This lovely cottage is really comfortable and ideal for less abled people as it is all on one level. All rooms are nicely decorated and plenty of towels provided in the bathrooms. There is parking and also a small seating area outside where you can catch the sun. We have been here before and would return. It is in a quite location a short distance from the village centre (which can get quite busy) and so its peaceful and not on a main road. I dont want to make it sound too good otherwise I will not find a free week next year to book again.

  Spacious, relaxing, great location and warm welcome

  Left on 12/08/2011 for a stay in October 2010
  
  

  The welcome was friendly and relaxed. The converted barn was very spacious and the beds really comfortable. We had everything we needed (except that we forgot to bring towels and had to buy some). Apart from needing a new set of saucepans, the barn was well equipped. The furniture and some utensils are a bit old fashioned, but this added to the charm. The location was absolutely fabulous, just a roll on your bike downhill to Thornton-le-Dale, really close to the Dalby Forest and easy traveling distance to the dramatic North Yorkshire Moors and stunning coastline. A fantastic place to stay for an action packed family holiday. We would love to come back.

  Great place to stay

  A very immaculate 2 bedroom property everything is of the highest standard a credit to the owner.
  Thornton-le-Dale is very picturesque village and is an ideal place to tour the West Yorkshire Moors only 2 miles from Pickering and well worth a steam train ride across the Moors is also nicely position for visiting Scarborough Filey Briddlinton and the coast we would not hesitate in returning in later years.

  Very relaxing comfortable and welcoming place to stay

  Left on 12/03/2009 for a stay in August 2009
  
  

  We really enjoyed our stay at the property Ref 1754
  at Thornton le Dale.
  It was very relaxing and comfortable.
  The only problem we had was my mother being disabled she had a problem going up and down the step to and from the kitchen.
  The bedrooms were very comfortable and peaceful.
  We found Thornton le Hole very pretty and laidback and would deffinatly return.
  We would recomend this property to anybody who would like a base to stay while traveling the North York Moors and surrounding area.
