The cottage is situated just a 15/20 min walk out of the centre of York. We never had to move the car after parking up at the cottage. Great outdoor seating area. Cottage was toasty warm on arrival. We had 3 good nights sleep too. We would definitely recommend if wanting to stay slightly out of the hustle and bustle. Would definitely return.
