Description from owner

Description

Manor Croft is a quaint and very old Cottage off a picture postcard village green in an attractive Village just ten minutes from Harrogate and between the bustling city of Leeds and Historic York. Being ten minutes from the A1(M) makes the Yorkshire Dales and Moors within easy reach to enjoy this beautiful and impressive countryside.

The cottage is situated in the heart of the village of Spofforth adjacent to the village green. The 12th century (English Heritage) Castle is a three minute walk from the house and footpaths lead in all directions to nearby villages which all support excellent pubs for food or drinks.

There is an excellent village store which is also a three minute walk and it stocks all your basic needs as well as take away coffees, bacon sandwiches and home made pizzas on a Friday night.

“Manor Croft” is an old crofter's cottage which, although set at the bottom of the garden of Manor Cottage, enjoys complete privacy and is detached. There is easy access to a spacious drive which is available to guests for the duration of their stay.

It is reputed to be one of the oldest houses in the village, thought to be at least 250 years old, and has been tastefully refurbished and modernised.

It sleeps two and comprises of a bedroom with King-size bed and shower room upstairs on a mezzanine floor with open plan living downstairs.

There is a smart TV which enables you to sign in to your netflix or google account etc. Original beams are exposed downstairs and the character of this ancient cottage is evident throughout.

There is a gas fired 'Wood burning stove effect' fire set into the hearth and the chimney breast forms an island in the room behind which is a fully fitted kitchen with modern appliances including dishwasher, microwave, gas hob and electric oven as well as the equipment you would expect to find in a well stocked kitchen.

The cottage has Gas fired Central Heating and is fully double-glazed, with French Windows that lead out onto a fully enclosed and private patio area. Free Wi-Fi is included.

Nearby activities include:

Golf. Spofforth has its own golf a few minutes from the house and there are two other golf courses with a ten minute drive.

The Races. Wetherby horse racing track is within a quarter of an hour drive from Spofforth. York race course is half an hour away.

Walking. Footpaths lead in all directions from the village to neighbouring villages with plenty of loop walks available of varying lengths as well as the wonderful walking country of the Dales and North Yorkshire Moors being an easy drive away.

Cycling. There is something for everyone, including a disused railway track which has been converted to a cycle track which joins Spofforth to Wetherby and beyond.

Harrogate and Wetherby both have Cinemas and Swimming Pools.

You can visit Concert Halls and Theatres in Harrogate.

Harrogate also hosts the renowned Conference Centre and Manor Croft is an ideal place to stay if you are attending a conference.

“Manorcroft Cottage”

Reviewed 21 Jun 2021

Had a lovely week in Manorcroft Cottage, perfect for two with everything you need supplied. Lovely cottage garden to enjoy the sunshine in. Great base for exploring quaint towns around , would especially recommend visits to Knaresborough, Wetherby & Harrogate. Very nice country pub in the village with fab beer garden, if a little pricey.

“Perfect Location”

Reviewed 5 Sep 2020

Tucked away at the end of the drive behind the main house is the property. Ideal for the two of us, with everything we required being provided. Nice to be able to sit out in our own little garden and enjoy the peace and quiet. Ideally situated between Wetherby and Harrogate, Spofforth has a local shop and a couple of pubs. We didn't bother using the car for the three days we stayed, choosing to walk to Wetherby and catch the bus to Harrogate. Overall excellent and would highly recommend.
