Great location for travel into York, Knaresborough and Harrogate, the cottage had a proper rustic feel to it and was very cosy whilst remaining practical. The owners were friendly and didn’t mind us going to visit their farm animals each morning, llamas, goats, ponies etc, which was a lovely touch.

Lovely place to stay. Everywhere as tidy but bathroom could do with some love. Would definitely recommend staying here we only stayed the one night wish we could’ve stayed longer.

An absolute treasure! We stayed in No 8 which had 2 double bedrooms and a single, which was perfect for a family of 5 with 2 teens. The exclusive hot tub to the property was wonderful both in the evening and early morning after a short stroll exploring the small farm. Didn't need anything from the owners and only saw one person whilst we was there, so whilst there are a few properties on site it still feels very private. We will be back next year purely for the cottage!

No.8 is a lovely cottage in a beautiful setting. We loved the hot tub. Unfortunately we could only stay one night as would have loved to have stayed longer. Thank you

We had a lovely stay only one night, well-equipped cottage. Some road noise but we all slept well my daughter loved the cat. 10 minutes drive to York it is a nice base to explore from and return to.

Beautiful cottage and space, unfortunately didn't get to explore the rest of the site. But I am looking at staying here again in the near future! Definitely a home from home experience. Fully functioning kitchen, decent bathroom and the most wonderful sleep. Living room had lots of light!

Nice night in a cosy cottage
Really nice cottage in a convenient location for York (20 minutes drive to the station). Most things about this were perfect. The only minor things that I thought could be improved are: 1) Better guidance when you arrive. We found reception which tells you which cottage you're in. It would be good to then have guidance on starting the fire, setting the central heating, etc. We worked the heating out after a short while though! 2) More clarity that you will hear the traffic as you're on a busy road (A59). Again, this didn't bother us but if you're looking for a silent, remote, countryside cottage then this might not be in. The three bedroom house could be different though as it was further from the road.

Fantastic place to enjoy some quality time.
We were pleasantly surprised! Unfortunately, we were only there for one night. It was really great to have our own space and my twelve-year-old daughter was elated when we were visited by one of the cats on the farm. Even more so when she looked out of her bedroom window and saw the Lamas. We really enjoyed our stay and have now decided that we will return in summer for a week or so to spend some time together in our own little cottage. At least for one week! Thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. We had a fantastic meal in Luigis Italian restaurant just a few miles down the road and, driving into York city centre from the cottage was also a breeze. We can highly recommend Skipbridge Farm Cottages to anyone, especially a family, looking for a great time while visiting and discovering the beautiful city of York.

The cottage exceeded our expectations and was very well equipped. My only problem being a bit handicapped and 85 was that the steps to the front door were rather steep. Otherwise we were deeply impressed.

Lovely farm stay
Lovely property, cottage was beautifully decorated, well equipped and very clean. We really enjoyed visiting the animals on the farm. Initially we were a bit worried about how close to the road it is but we really didn’t notice the noise much once we were in the cottage.

Trip 19th August till 21st August
We throughly enjoyed our stay and only wished we stayed an extra night, the cottage is a 2 stories, and only 20-30 minutes from York, the cottage itself is lovely with a good collection of books and artwork on the walls, would highly recommend for a getaway Would definitely go back again

quaint, cute, nice
Gil was extremely helpful and a pleasure to work with. My family of five enjoyed our stay at Skipridge Farm. The place we stayed was freshly cleaned, and had all the essentials. The animals at the farm were a plus for my kids, and the location of the place was ideal for exploring York, Harrogate, and places beyond.

NOT TOO FAR FROM THE CITY
The unit is big. There are 2 rooms on the second floor. However the flooring is very light so every step you take is resonated.

Exactly what we had hoped for.
We had a cottage room which consisted of a kitchen/laundrette, two bedrooms, a bathroom, and a lounge room. The 4 of us were very comfortable. The lounge room featured a lovely fire place. The beds were large and comfortable. Very clean. Nice hot water. The only thing that slightly put me out was that the blanket on the couch had dog hair on it.

one of the best places I have stayed!
I was greeted by a lovely lady called Gill who informed me of all the information relevant for my stay, just the right amount not overwhelming like some places I have stayed. The room well Minnie house/cottage was beautiful, the decore suited the cottage perfect every last detail was in place. The bed was comfy and actual real plump pillows ahhhhh. Fresh milk in the fridge is always a plus, free parking and super quick free wifi. Will defiantly return on my next stay in York.
