Guests say
Croft Cottage 1 in York is praised for its exceptional cleanliness, comfortable furnishings, and friendly owners. Its proximity to local attractions and historical sites makes it a convenient base for exploring. Guests appreciate the nearby pub's delicious food and the helpful suggestions for dog walks. Some guests missed having a garden and noted occasional noise from the pub.
Guests consistently mention the cottage's exceptional cleanliness, describing it as one of the cleanest they've stayed in, spotlessly clean, and ready upon arrival.
The cottage's location is highly regarded for its easy access to York and surrounding villages, historical sites, and dog-friendly cafes. The presence of a nearby pub and village shop adds to the convenience.
The comfort of the cottage is well-received, with mentions of a super comfy bed and comfortable seating. However, some guests suggest improvements in lounge seating and mention the sofa not being the best for an evening's relaxation.
Facilities are generally good, with a well-equipped kitchen and good bathroom facilities. However, some guests noted issues with the shower handle and the absence of a DVD player and freezer, which affected the score.
While guests mention a welcome pack and a homemade hamper, there is not enough consistent detail across reviews to assess the overall thoughtfulness of the hosts regarding gifts, and thus the score is set to null. It should be noted that such gifts are a kind gesture and not guaranteed.

Gorgeous cottage in very quiet village, it is one of cleanest cottates we have stayed in . The bed was super comfy , sofa was comfy to chill at night . The only thing we did miss was a garden for the dog as we never usually book cottages without a garden . It is only short drive to some gorgeous villages with lots of history and dog friendly cafes . It is a good base for visiting York, Helmsley, Knaresborough , Easingwold. The owners were very friendly and told us some lovely walks to take the dog round the village . Would not hesitate to recommend to friends 😊
