“Fabulous cottage had a wonderful stay set in a beautiful village.”

Cottage was immaculate with everything you could need, very comfortable, and a great enclosed garden for our two dachshunds to run around safely. Great location to head to the coast or into York, thank you

“Fern Cottage is beautiful and has everything you could need for an enjoyable stay.”

The beds are so comfortable, like sleeping on clouds. The sofa not so comfortable but to be fair we sat outside when we were in as the weather was kind to us. Local pub is very friendly and welcoming but doesn't serve food between 3pm and 6pm, and not at all on bank holiday. Despite this we had a lovely relaxing break, thank you.

- Karen, August 2026

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at Fern Cottage and hope you visit again soon. There are a few pubs in the area, with the Wolds Inn a short drive up the road in Huggate. Or The Wellington at Lund and The Pipe & Glass a little further out, maybe 10 minute drive. The Star Inn is a 2 min walk, in the village. Between them they have eating times covered but I’m sorry the Star wasn’t serving on the bank holiday. Very glad it didn’t spoil your stay. Property Owner

“Lovely cottage!”

We stayed for a week with our dog and found it to be the perfect place to explore from. We were very comfortable and the cottage had everything we needed.

Thank you so much for your feedback. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you again in the future Property Owner
Gaynor July 2026

“Perfect property for the two of us and our small dog.”

The garden was properly enclosed so our dog could enjoy it safely. The cottage was clean and well furnished and equipped for two people. Some more crockery, cutlery etc would be helpful if more than two people staying. The beds were comfy and the shower was super powerful. It is an end terrace cottage so you are in close proximity to neighbours when in the garden though this didn’t cause us any issues. The cottage is on the main road through the village and the traffic can be noisy especially when few stick to the 30mph speed limit but we only noticed this when in the lounge during the daytime which wasn’t very often. The village is lovely with loads of walks to choose from straight from the door. It is well located for visiting other parts of East Yorkshire. The Star Inn in the village is dog and people friendly and the food and ambiance are great. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Fern Cottage and would recommend it highly.

- Gaynor, July 2026

Thank you for your kind feedback! We are glad you enjoyed your stay and loved the village. There are ducks and wildlife crossing from the village pond. Despite signs telling motorists to slow down, unfortunately (and sadly for the ducks) a minority abuse the quiet country roads. We hope you visit again soon. Property Owner
Alison December 2025

“A beautiful clean, well looked after little cottage with comfy beds.”

Much appreciated goody pack and milk on our arrival. A lovely welcoming atmosphere and good walks for the dog. Everyone we met around the village was very friendly and said hello. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much for the lovely feedback. We are glad you loved Fern Cottage and the village. We hope you visit again in the future Property Owner

Richard October 2025

“Fern Cottage delivered on all levels - comfort, contents & location (not to mention secure garden for the dog).”

A perfect find for a terrific few days in the Wolds…

- Richard, October 2025

We’re so glad you enjoyed Fern Cottage and the beautiful Wolds. And that you found “The Welly”. It’s one of our favourite places too! Property Owner
Jo October 2025

“Really lovely cottage in every way.”

Newly updated throughout and very good quality bedding. The shower is powerful and the house is nice and warm. Would thoroughly recommended and very happy to book again. Thank you

Christine September 2025

“Fern cottage is a lovely place to stay.”

It was beautifully presented and really cosy. We had everything we needed for our short stay. The outside space was nice and secure for our two dogs. The village was lovely and the Star Inn down the road is worth a visit.

- Christine, September 2025

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We are so glad you enjoyed the cottage and the village. We hope you visit again soon. Liz Property Owner
John August 2025

“We enjoyed our stay at Fern Cottage it was very clean and well equipped.”

The sofa we found a little uncomfortable, but that may just be us, and what we are used to. The garden was secure for our dog and she enjoyed her stay here as well. Parking at the rear of the property was no problem.

- John, August 2025

Thank you for your feedback. I’m sorry the sofa wasn’t as comfy as you’d have liked. We’ve actually found it quite difficult to find one that fits the room without making it too cramped. We are very glad you enjoyed your stay otherwise. Kind regards. Liz Property Owner
James August 2025

“Lovely little cottage, had everything we needed”

- James, August 2025

Thank you for you lovely review. I’ve just been and bought a new pan set! We hope you come back to give it a try. Liz Property Owner
Joanne August 2025

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Fern Cottage.”

The house was stocked with all of the necessary supplies that made it a home away from home. The bed and bedding was so comfortable (it was just the two of us so we did not use the second bedroom). The location was perfect for all of our day trips and situated nicely to a local pub. Thank you to the owners that put in so much effort to this gorgeous home.

- Joanne, August 2025

Thank you for your lovely feedback and for choosing Fern Cottage for your stay. We hope you visit again. Safe onwards travels! Liz Property Owner
Alice July 2025

“Lovely cottage in a beautiful part of the countryside.”

A great base to explore the surrounding villages and towns. Not the biggest, but it has everything you need and is reflected in the price. With one dog and one toddler we were more than comfortable. The place was very clean, the beds were super comfortable and toiletries a nice touch. 5 stars!

- Alice, July 2025

Thank you for the lovely review and for choosing our cosy cottage for your stay. We hope to see you again in the future. Property Owner
Janet July 2025

“Lovely cottage, very clean and comfortable.”

Nice walks and pub just a short stroll away. Welcome pack with milk, cake, tea and coffee. Dog friendly with secure garden. Visit Bridlington South Beach endless clean sandy dog friendly Beach. We had a lovely time. Thank you Jane for your assistance when we misplaced our door key.

- Janet, July 2025

Thank you for your lovely feedback and for your stay. We are so glad you enjoyed Fern Cottage and hope to welcome you back in the future. Property Owner
Sandra July 2025

“We had a great time at the cottage it was beautiful lovely enclosed garden for our dog and the bed was lovely and comfy.”

The only things we could fault was no iron and no baking trays apart from that everything was great will definitely book again

- Sandra, July 2025

Thank you for your lovely feedback. We are so glad you enjoyed Fern Cottage and the beautiful Yorkshire Wolds. I have an iron and ironing board on order, so they’ll be here for your future stay. I can add more baking trays but there is one in the oven, plus a ceramic non-stick one in the cupboard (which makes the best oven-cooked/grilled bacon). Look forward to welcoming you in the future.

A lovely relaxing break This cottage is very comfortable and has been done to a high standard We were lucky with the weather so spent a lot of time in the colourful garden North Dalton it self is well situated for the wolds and the coast Would definitely recommend and hope to be back

Thank you for the lovely feedback and for staying at Fern Cottage. We look forward to welcoming you back Property Owner
Chris April 2025

“Lovely cottage, recently refurbished to a very high standard.”

The bed in the main bedroom was very comfortable and the whole place was spotlessly clean. We would definitely return. No need to publish this bit, just for the owners info: A couple of coat hooks on the back of the kitchen door and bathroom door would have been really useful, as would a coffee table (even a tiny one) in the lounge as there's nowhere to put drinks when you're on the sofa.

- Chris, April 2025

Thank you for your lovely feedback and we are so glad you enjoyed your stay. We’ve now added a couple of coffee stands in the lounge and will add coat hooks when Fern Cottage is next empty. We hope you come and stay again soon! Property Owner
Peter April 2025

Back garden and parking space a real bonus. Will certainly plan to return in the future.

Thank you and we’re glad you enjoyed Fern Cottage. Look forward to welcoming you back. Property Owner

“Gorgeous cottage, immacutately clean and in a perfect location for exploring York.”

The beds were super comfy and it had all you could need for a comfortable stay. Except perhaps a microwave. Would stay there again.

- Sue, March 2025

Thank you so much for your feedback and for appreciating Fern Cottage and the area as much as we do. Following your suggestion, we have now added a microwave. Hope you can visit again. Liz Property Owner
