    “After previously booking the Cow Shed accommodation on the same site a few years ago which I enjoyed, I booked East Cottage.”

    East Cottage was comfortable, clean & tidy! Also it was nice being able to come & go as you please without feeling being observed by the owner. There was a complimentary bottle of wine waiting for us on arrival which was very welcoming. The location made it a more easy journey to visit York & Scarborough or take a longer journey to Richmond, Knaresborough & Grassington. Would definitely recommend to other potential customers!

The property

West Cottage is delightful, a first-floor apartment is accessed via a set of external stairs that lead into the light and airy kitchen.

Cook up a storm with assistance from the electric and hob, microwave and fridge/freezer, before settling down at the dining table to enjoy the fruits of your labour.

After a day of exploring, kick back in the sitting room as you lounge on the sofa, tuning into the TV in search of your favourite programmes.

As the night rolls in, wash away the day in the bathroom, offering choice of bath and shower over, before discovering the double and twin bedroom to catch your rest.

To the outside lies a private patio where you can dine alfresco style or simple unwind on a balmy evening.

West Cottage, a delightful retreat for exploring North Yorkshire.

About the location

RILLINGTON

Malton 4.7 miles; Scarborough 18.5 miles; York 23 miles.

Rillington is a small village and civil parish located on the A64 road in North Yorkshire, with easy links to the historical city of York and the bustling coastal town of Scarborough. Rillington was mentioned in the 1086 Domesday Survey and is now home to a Post Office, two pubs, The Coach and Horses and The Fleece, and a church. The rural community was developed many years ago due to the presence of fertile soil and the village is still home to an active farming community. Nearby attractions include the Scampton Walled Garden, a contemporary garden open for visitors throughout the year, and the Wolds Way Lavender, a lavender farm and visitor centre. Further afield into the city of York, you can discover the incredible York Minster and grand city walls. Heading towards the coast, the seaside towns of Filey and Scarborough offer a good selection of shops, pubs, restaurants and cafés, as well as gorgeous promenades, water sports and golden sandy beaches.
