It is spotlessly clean which is so important to us.It is so very comfortable and has a brilliant safe enclosed garden which our little puppy loves to play in. Every thing you need for a relaxing break is in that cottage,itâs good for our wellbeing before going home to plan the next stay there.

It was spacious and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The enclosed rear garden was great for the dogs. We didn't get to sit in the garden, but it was very pretty. The driveway was big enough for two cars and had gates for security. The location was great for exploring Yorkshire. Would highly recommend Midsummer cottage and we look forward to revisiting this gem again soon. Thank you

We arrived in mid Storm Bert,weather absolutely awful but we were so comfortable with the amenities of Midsummer Cottage.Having such a safe and interesting garden for our little dog,Rosie,made it so much easier for her to exercise in the rain and wind.Will definitely be back for another short break soon.
