After reading some reviews, we were a little unsure about our visit. we needn't have worried
the family and staff soon made us feel at home. there is a regular bus route to york or the coast
should want to have a break from driving. the accommodation must have improved from other

We chose this place because York was very busy and the accommodation left was too expensive.
Although a short drive from York it was advertised as having a village pub that did meals nearby, however the pub was closed so we finished up having to go into York anyway.
The accommodation was adequate; en suite was clean, bed comfy and...

We stayed at Orillia house in the one bedroom cottage for a weekend getaway. I'll start with the good because it's quicker. Close to York, Friendly locals, Quiet location and Helpful staff. Now the bad. The cottage obviously hadn't been cleaned close to our arrival. The bathroom bin had not been emptied from the previous guests and all I'll say...

We would certainly recommend this lovely B&B. Our room was large and clean, breakfast was hearty and the surrounding countryside beautiful. York was but a 10 minute bus ride away. It was a wonderful weekend!
we were welcomed by a helpful member of staff who gave us directions on route which was useful as property was actually 8miles from York not 3 as the website suggested!! room ok warm and cosy but curtains were hanging off the rail and wouldnt close properly.breakfast was ok would have liked beans and a choice of sauces would have...
