“Cottage was warm and comfy.”

Heating was easy to alter if you needed to. Furniture and beds all good. Kitchen well equipped. Great garden. Nice little village with pub, garage shop and great cafe. Cottage is well situated for towns/cities or coast. Our only issue was gaps at gate post (our dog is small and skinny) but we sorted by just placing garden chairs in front of these. Even with heavy snow we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and could well be back. Thank you

- David, November 2025
Catherine November 2025

“Church Barns is a very comfortable,well equipped cottage.”

The owners were very helpful when we struggled to adjust underfloor heating. Small details gave it a 'hotel' vibe. The edible treats were much appreciated. We weren't able to take our dog as she had a torn cruciate ligament however the garden was secure and big enough to pop out and some nice walks locally ( better without rain and fog!)

- Catherine, November 2025

Thankyou for your lovely feedback hopefully you can return when the sun is shining . Hope your dogs recovering well. Property Owner
Jane October 2025

“A lovely holiday base, tastefully furnished for a cosy and comfortable stay.”

Its location is ideal for glorious walks in the beautiful Yorkshire Wolds. You can literally step outside Church Barn, and walk into the Wolds. The local pub serves good food and you can all enjoy a good ale without having to drive. We can thoroughly recommend a stay here. Jane and Peter

Annie September 2025

“This cottage is amazing, so well equiped and everything you can think of provided.”

Its beautifully presented and spotless. Fridayrhorpe is a picture perfect village, garage had all the basic's you'd need. Around 25min drive into York so a perfect base.

- Annie, September 2025
Carol September 2025

“The property is in a great location for exploring York and over to the East coast.”

The cottage was well-equipped and furnished, and most things had been thought of. We did feel (although only a small thing) that the baking sheets/trays in the kitchen were in a poor state and needed replacing, We also had to buy washing up liquid (we couldn’t find any), bin bags (2 provided for a whole week) and dishwasher tablets (only 4 for a whole week). Overall the property was very clean- we found only one place in the bathroom where there was dirt at the bottom of the shower screen in the corner where it joins to the bath, otherwise, it was perfectly clean. Bed was comfy. The outside space was very pleasant. It’s a great place if you have a dog. I would recommend this property.

- Carol, September 2025

Thankyou for your feedback. The washing up liquid is stood next to the kitchen tap in a glass bottle holding approx 500ml and topped up each visit as we feel it looks nicer than having a half used plastic bottle stood there, maybe we should add a sticker to the bottle for the avoidance of doubt. I will have a word with the cleaning team regarding the corner of the bathroom shower screen and also to provide more bin bags and dishwasher tablets for longer stays. Property Owner
Rebecca August 2025

“We had an amazing week at number 1 church barns, it was a very comfortable stay we had everything we could have possibly needed, we had a few nights where we cooked our own meals.”

All the utensils we needed were provided. It was certainly home from home.the welcome of milk, prosecco and biscuits were a lovely touch. And very much enjoyed, plenty to do at close by surrounding areas, we visited a different place each day.we particularly enjoyed bridlington and york! We used the park and ride for both places, which i would highly recommend. We enjoyed a meal at the local pub the manor inn, which is a stones throw away from the barn The staff were very friendly, and the food was beautiful. We would 100% like to return someday it was the perfect week.thank you

- Rebecca, August 2025

Thankyou for your amazing feedback so glad you enjoyed your stay and we hope to see you again soon. Property Owner
David July 2025

“Overall the property was exactly as described.”

It had everything we needed and was comfortable both inside and in the garden. The location was ideal for exploring the beautiful area. The only minor suggestion would be to have a box to recycle packaging etc.

- David, July 2025

Thankyou for your feedback. Sadly as we are a rateable property and therefore pay for our bin service we are unable to have a recycling system in place. We did previously offer to take recycling for guests but as you can imagine this became very onerous particularly at festive times etc. I have added a note to the guest handbook advising where local glass recycling bins are located. We hope you can join us again soon. Regards Property Owner

“Very comfortable property with high quality fixtures and fittings.”

This was our first visit to the Yorkshire Wolds. The countywide is stunning, the people are friendly and we will definitely return one day.

“Lovely 'cottage' in a quiet village.”

Good facilities. We enjoyed our stay very much - thank you! We also enjoyed 2 meals at the Manor Inn in the village - easy walking distance, so no car needed

- Fiona Patricia Mary, May 2025

Thankyou for your great feedback so glad you enjoyed your stay and the wonderful hospitality at the local village pub too. Hope to see you again soon Property Owner

Philip February 2025

“Lovely barn the beds were very comfortable and the location was great.”

Visited Malton which was very close and very dog friendly. The only suggestion for improvement would be new saucepans and utensils for the kitchen as we it difficult to cook.

- Philip, February 2025

Thankyou for your feedback, could you please let me know which additional pans you would have liked adding to the kitchen. We currently have a wok, 2 frying pans, egg poacher, baking trays, pizza tray, yorkshire pudding tin, cake tin, rolling pin, pyrex dishes, collinder, glass bowls, knives, tongs, wooden spoons masher, spatulas, bread knife, tin opener, grater and many other utensils along with electric oven, hob, microwave and toaster. We also have a large number of serving platters etc but Im always happy to add something else if people have suggestions. Please advise, many thanks. Property Owner

“Lovely property, comfortable and ideally situated.”

Suzanne November 2024

“This is our second visit to Church Barns.”

The cottage is immaculate with a few select pieces of interesting antique curios to make it homely. The kitchen has plenty of equipment for those that like to cook. As two friends on holiday we love that we each have an equal size bedroom with plenty of space. There is a lovely private garden and the driveway had plenty of room for two cars. The cottage is set in a lovely village overlooking the village pond and is located close to a number of popular tourist sites. We walked down to the local pub The Manor for a meal and were made very welcome. The meal was delicious. The correspondence from the cottage owner is really helpful and Sharon is just on the end of a phone if we had needed her. The milk and biscuits were also most welcome. We would certainly use this cottage again in the future.

- Suzanne, November 2024
Andrew October 2024

“Stayed for 4 nights over October half term with my daughter and our dog.”

The cottage was fantastic and had everything we required for a relaxing break. 30 mins from York and the same from the coast it allowed us to vary our days out and relax in the evenings watching a movie. Garden was lovely and also secure and the EV charger was very handy.

- Andrew, October 2024

A June 2024

“Nice accommodation but not so easy to access as front door can only be used if there is someone inside.”

The rear access is fine and where the parking is but the kitchen dining area has no natural ventilation other than opening the bi-fold door. Not sure why it was important to keep light on for the outside. To save electricity and to reduce night light we switched them off. For us the big positive was that as a wheelchair user it was excellent once we altered a bit of furniture positioning. The large settees did restrict space. Finally, we had to provide our own bedside radio, and the streaming TV - modern and no doubt in vogue was quite annoying at having to first access the guide to find the station required. Isn’t modern tech meant to be easier to use?

- A, June 2024

Thankyou for your feedback. Had we been advised you required wheelchair access we would have happily left a front door key for you., however following your comments I will now add to the keysafe.Most visitors prefer to use the private rear drive and back door and the front door is opened with a thumb turn from the inside.We leave outside lights on only for the convenience of our guests who may be arriving home late, they are on a dark sensor and timer which is disrupted if switch is turned off. We do provide an Alexa that can be moved to the bedroom if you require a radio/ alarm . We have one large comfortable amazing sofa for guests to use along with 2 comfortable armchairs ( again had you asked I would have removed one of these to give you more space).Our tv is a smart tv as this is what 99% of guests now expect and prefer as allows access to not only the traditional channels but also any apps they may be familiar with.

Suzanne June 2024

“We had a lovely stay at the Church Barn.”

We visited Burnby Hall Garden, Castle Howard, The Robert Fuller Gallery and Pocklington. The location is easy to get to and is in a lovely setting overlooking the village pond and the church. Facilities in the barn were ideal for two friends meeting up as we each had a very spacious double bedroom. We were lucky enough to be able to sit out each even in the garden area which is fully secure. We each reversed into the drive and managed to fit a mini and a Yaris behind the gate. I would highly recommend this cottage which is very comfortable and well equipped for a very relaxing stay.

Thankyou for your great feedback so glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again soon. Property Owner

Angela April 2024

“Beautiful well presented cottage in a quiet location.”

Comfortable beds, lovely sitting room to relax in, everything we needed as regards kitchen equipment/utensils. Having milk in the fridge and biscuits for when we arrived was a nice touch. The ducks from the pond came to visit us in the garden each day!! We will definitely book again.

- Angela, April 2024
Linsey February 2024

“The owners have beautifully decorated this barn conversion , furniture is quality and classy, the living room is much larger than the pictures look, lots of nice little touches, , like washing up liquid, handsoap salt, pepper etc.”

.. The log supply was great ,the burner kicks out a lot of heat so didn't need to be on for long periods The handbook we received by email from Sharon before was great ! So useful We also were appreciative of the biscuits and milk on arrival, We sleep in King size and super king at home so for us the double beds were fairly small,and we also missed radiators , and not being able to control our own heating as sometimes too hot or too cold, and you don't want to bother the owners constantly , we have never ever stayed in a cottage where we can't adjust heating ourselves . The village is quiet , peaceful and not a lot around but short approx half hour drives to York, the outlets, malton, and about 15 minutes to Driffield which was great . Lovely garden which would be great in the summer.

- Linsey, February 2024

Thankyou for your feedback. Sorry to hear the temperature was not always correct for you at this time of the year temperatures can vary so much it is hard to suit all requirements. The barn is underfloor heating which is set to a constant temperature. The living room and the kitchen can be adjusted by thermostat as you require (using the instruction card in the kitchen) however due to the nature of underfloor heating it is a slow process to change temperature as not so instant as radiators. We do also provide the log burner should guests require further heat. We are looking to replace one of the double beds with a King size bed as by moving furniture around think we can fit one in sorry you didnt realise we only had doubles but it does mention this in the listing. Pleased you enjoyed our little touches. Property Owner
William February 2024

“Church Barn is such a welcoming and comfortable place to stay, it was so warm, cosy and clean and it had been very stylishly renovated.”

We felt totally at home from the moment we arrived, and the owner, Sharon, could not have been more helpful and friendly, always on hand to answer any questions and a font of knowledge about the local area. We kept our bikes in the garden shed and one of my favourite things was to sit just outside the patio doors with a mug of coffee, in the morning, before we set off for the day, enjoying a bit of early Spring sunshine.The area is so tranquil and peaceful, proper rural Yorkshire. And Fridaythorpe is a delightful village with a church, a pub and a duck pond. What more could you want!

- William, February 2024
Helen January 2024

“This is a fantastic cottage, which looks exactly like the photos (not always the case) and we had a truly wonderful stay here.”

It’s beautifully renovated, well-furnished and equipped and extremely comfortable – our week included the sudden, drastic fall in temperature to -5C and snowfall but we remained warm, owing to the underfloor heating and very effective wood burner. The owners have thought of everything – for example, the kitchen is better equipped than any we’ve encountered in the many cottages we’ve rented for holidays - and little touches include a lovely welcome pack, generously supplied toiletries in the bathroom and very tasteful décor and soft furnishings. The cottage is detached, all on one level and spacious, standing in its own grounds and with access to excellent walks on the Wolds Way. It’s very dog friendly indeed and our dog Claudia realised very quickly that she was warmer if she lay on the floor rather than on her bed, because of the underfloor heating. It’s a small but very pleasant village, where amenities include a pub that does food and a petrol station that also serves as the village shop – this is surprisingly good and cater for your needs extremely well. The owner made contact before, during and after our visit to ensure we knew all that was necessary, that we were enjoying our holiday without problems and to ask for feedback which might help them improve the cottage further (this was hard to do – the place is, in our opinion, faultless). We most definitely want to return!

“This beautiful barn was absolutely perfect in every way!”

It’s furnished to a very high standard & has everything & more than you need for a very comfortable week away at Christmas. There was a beautiful Christmas tree & lovely goodies left for us all of which were greatly appreciated! There are some lovely walks from the doorstep & we had a wonderful trip to Castle Howard on Christmas Eve. We would not hesitate to highly recommend 1 church barn, it’s now become our favourite place to be when visiting Yorkshire!

“Such a lovely cottage decorated and finished ti an extremely high standard.”

Facilities are fabulous, mega clean, dog friendly with a bonus enclosed garden for the dog to run around safely. Well located for Yok, seaside and further a field. The seaways cafe was good for breakfast and home made snacks. We would absolutely stay again and recommend without hesitation.

Carol September 2023

“Lovely cottage which was very clean and comfortable.”

The garden was fully enclosed, so good for dogs unless you have a very small one which might be able to squeeze between the gate and the gatepost. Location was good - close to the village green with the duckpond, and some nice walks right on our doorstep. We found the fridge a bit on the small side even for just the 2 of us - with just a small freezer compartment, so don't take lots of food with you - eat out instead! We ate at the Wellington Inn, The Wolds Inn and the Old Star Inn, all of which were good. The cottage could have done with a few more coathangers or drawers in the main bedroom, and also for a person of my height (5'0") the bathroom mirror was too high and I could only see the top of my head! Other than that, we had everything we needed. The cottage maintained a good even temperature and we didn't have to change any settings or light the fire. Would definitely recommend this cottage.

- Carol, September 2023

Thankyou for your feedback and so sorry you were unable to see in the bathroom mirror. We do provide moveable vanity mirrors in the bedrooms, I will add one of these to the bathroom too. There are 6 drawers in the main bedroom along with the large wardrobe so I am surprised there was not enough storage space for a 4 night stay but i will look to add more hangers we try to leave 12-15 in each wardrobe but Im sure a few more wont harm.

“What a beautiful clean cottage.”

One of the best ones we have ever stayed in.The garden was enclosed which was good for our dog.it was very warm and comfortable and thankyou for the goodies that were left we actually could not fault it at all the village was very nice only problem was there were not many amenities and the pub on the corner was closed while we were there so we had to go to a different village to have our evening meal as we like to eat out while we are away but we were not disappointed and it was dog friendly.

- Susan, July 2023

Thankyou for your kind feedback, so glad you enjoyed your stay and we too wish the village pub would reopen they did say they were going to so fingers crossed. Property Owner
Colin May 2023

“We received an E Mail when we returned from our holiday which outlined one or two details about the property.”

This was sent on the day we left for the cottage and we did not see it as we did not take any devices with us as we wanted a break. It would be good for this to be sent a couple of days earlier

- Colin, May 2023

Thankyou for your feedback, we send all guests an email with check in details but for security reasons we dont send until just prior to your stay as we dont want to share codes etc too early in case guests have to cancel their stay. Usually we send them out a couple of days prior I can only apologise if you didnt receive yours until after your stay. All the information we send is available in a printed version in the property.

Ian October 2021

“The property was lovely, very comfortable and well equipped.”

A welcome basket with milk, bread and jam awaited us with a supply of coffee sachets and teabags also available. However, the milk had reached its use by date and was slightly off , the bread had also been left a bit too long. Perhaps the property had been cleaned a few days before we arrived. It was a kind gesture however. We were unsuccessful in our attempts to keep the log burner working , probably due to poor quality logs bought at a petrol station, and as the weather was atrocious during our week there, it was missed. The living room just needed an extra touch of heat in the evening. The bed was comfortable and well presented. Perhaps more hangers would be useful. The bathroom is beautiful and the owner provided everything you could possibly need to use in porcelain containers. One item missing, possibly due to Covid issues, was a bath/ shower mat. I felt the surface of the bath was slippery and with no grab rail, a bit unsafe for someone, like me, who has stability issues. We bought a mat to use. However we do recognise that that might be due to Covid issues . The little enclosed garden would have been lovely in better weather and was well enclosed and safe for our dog. The village is lovely and the area is nice, central to lots of other areas of interest. We had to cut short our stay due to illness, but would ordinarily have wanted to stay longer. The cottage has been put together very thoughtfully by the owner, for which, many thanks.

- Ian, October 2021

Thank you for your feedback I am really sorry to hear about your bread and milk, these were both purchased from a local farm shop on the morning of your stay we will in future take more notice of the dates shown on their products when purchasing complimentary items for guests. We will add more hangers to the wardrobes as you mention I'm sure these will be useful and I'm sorry to hear you were unable to keep the log burner alight, I will check the air vent at the bottom was not closed as it usually lights no problem with the logs and firelighters we leave in the shed, had you called I would happily have talked you through the thermostat or popped up to the property if you were unable to follow the instruction card left in the kitchen which would have increased the underfloor heating temperature. Due to covid we did remove rubber bath mats, we do provide a material bath mat for the floor as these can be laundered between guests but the rubber bath versions unfortunately are not covid compliant.

Vicky July 2021

“Place was a amazing to stay at - the utensils though are old and dated.”

The tin opener was pretty much broken and could do with a masher. Apart from that, the location was fab, the barn was comfortable with everything you need. Shop just round the corner for essentials and walks on the doorstep. The neighbours do have dogs, just to bear in mind if you have a reactive pooch like me, but was easily managed.

“Place was wonderful and done to a very high standard-we were very comfortable!”

Would highly recommend! The only thing that let this cottage down was the crockery and cutlery-they were both very old and in poor condition znd there wasnt enough for 2 people to use comfortably so that was the only disappointing part - all in all very happy

- Mark, September 2020
Caroline August 2020

“The cottage is a very comfortable base for walking and enjoying the beautiful local countryside.”

The facilities in the village are thin (normally we would look for somewhere with a local pub within walking distance) but under the current circumstances this did not impact our holiday.

It was clean, comfortable, quirky and lots of little touches we didn’t expect, like some bread, butter, eggs and other little items left for us on our arrival. There was even shampoo and conditioner for us if needed. The cottage was cozy and so comfortable. The owner kept in touch with us via email due to Covid 19 to check we were satisfied with everything. Even the gardener worked round us time wise to tend the garden on the Monday. Wouldn’t hesitate to come again

About the location

POCKLINGTON

York 13 miles.

The pretty little market town of Pocklington nestles at the foot of the Yorkshire Wolds in the Vale of York. It is perhaps best known for Burnby Hall Gardens - 8 acres of gloriously beautiful gardens with two large lakes which are home to the National Collection of water lilies. There are several world famous attractions nearby - majestic Castle Howard, beautiful Sledmere House, and of course the historic city of York. The town boasts a leisure centre offering a wide range of sports, including swimming, a Civic Centre and the Pocklington Arts Centre, which shows various films and stages live shows throughout the year. Pocklington is also home to Madhyamaka Kadampa Meditation Centre, known worldwide for its meditation courses and retreats, plus the KP Golf Club is situated approx. 1 mile away and offers wedding and other event facilities, a stylish bar and a restaurant, as well as an 18 hole championship golf course. Just a few miles away is the village of Warter, which is where David Hockney produced his 'Bigger Trees Near Warter' painting. Nearby are various cycle ways including the North Sea Cycle Route and walkers will love either the long distance walks along the Wolds Way or one of the many more circular walks in the area for all abilities. For those who enjoy touring by car, Pocklington forms part of the Pocklington Round, a lovely scenic drive which takes in some of the area’s prettiest villages.
