Wayside Cottage Reviews

Pamela
This is a lovely spacious house, which is well equipped and very comfortable. The hot tub was great and the children loved the gypsy caravan. This was our second visit, and had a lovely weekend.
Kathryn
The place was really lovely thank you
Tiffany
Me and my good friend of 20 years spent the weekend at Wayside cottage to celebrate our milestone. It was lovely. The cottage is in such a beautiful location with good transport links. The cottage itself is cute and quirky and we had everything we needed. We didn't want to leave! We are already talking about returning!
Graham
Fantastic holiday home in a perfect location. Very clean and well equipped throughout. Truly a home from home. Highly recommended to all and the hot tub is just amazing. Thank you for a wonderful weeks stay.
Our third visit to Wayside cottage! We love it here! The cottage is spotlessly clean. Facilities are brilliant absolutely everything you could possibly need. We really feel it is a home from home. Beautiful land around the cottage. My Son even got a little tour around the farm to see the animals with the farmer and he was absolutely thrilled. Thank you for another great holiday
The whole family had an awesome stay at the wayside cottage, the location was great to commute to all the places of interest in Yorkshire and the house itself was lovely with amazing facilities. We wouldn't hesitate to book again.
Fabulous cottage, very private & spotlessly clean. Fantastic facilities, everything you need. Ive knocked my review down by one point because the beds are described as 1x super King and 2 x King, whereas they are actually 1x king and 2x double, so not quite as described & not what we were expecting. However, that did not distract from the beautiful setting and our fab stay. Excellent place to stay and fantastic service support from Mike, the owner.
Beautiful cottage, beautiful location, nice and clean. Lots of places to visit around lovely hot tub, a little road noise but not too bad later at night very relaxing stay
Wayside Cottage is a fantastic property. The pictures dont do the space justice! It is spacious, clean, comfortable and the hot tub is fantastic. I would absolutely recommend Wayside Cottage.
Rachel
Lovely cottage. Great location for a visit in York. Our children, especially loved seeing all of the wild rabbits in the adjoining field. Will definitely be returning.
Melenie
Another excellent relaxing stay. Fantastic property that feels like home as soon as you arrive. Great base as well to get around. Beverley and York to name a couple. Lovely to see the rabbits and a wander through the pathway you will get to see the 2 turkeys. We even got to see a deer this time in one of the fields when looking out of the bedroom window. We will be back again to visit this lovely property.
Carole
Lovely clean and cosey cottage thank you
Super Cottage, very well equipped, good price and fairly central for discovering East Riding. Bit of road noise when in the garden but the windows are very effective when in the house. Hot tub was great. Private and secluded grounds with ample parking. Spacious inside. Really enjoyed our stay. Thank You.
The cottage was lovely and homely, perfect for 2 couples and 2 children. The facilities were excellent, clean and tidy and we thoroughly enjoyed relaxing in the Hot Tub and having the added bonus of Netflix. The parking was fantastic and location really good for going places like York and Beverley and National Trusts. Pocklington was nice and near and had plenty of EateriesTakeout's. The Plough Inn at Allerthorpe did a lovely meal and the Chinese Restaurant is within walking distance. We would definitely use Wayside Cottage if we returned to the area again.
Rebecca
This is a fantastic property, great value for money. Everything you could need for a short break, even has a hot tub! Great location for York and Beverley. We love it and will keep coming every year.
Georgina
Stay was amazing, warm and welcoming with everything you need. Beautiful cottage, will definitely be back again. Need to get a bigger sign and balloon as even with directions from our host we drove past....twice Only criticism was we requested twin beds but zip n link hadn't been split but we made do and didn't detract from our stay.
Michelle
A beautiful cottage, extremely comfortable and clean with all the necessary equipment you need. Very much a home from home feeling
Our second visit to Wayside Cottage and it didnt disappoint! Spotlessly clean again and everything we needed was included. Great value for money and a wonderful holiday. Thank you!
2nd New year stay here! We never usually stay in the same place twice but this was our second visit and whilst there booked for our 3rd New year stay! Cottage is lovely and clean spotless in fact, heating is on for arrival which is great!! Plenty of clean towels available!! A proper home from home has everything you could need!! Owners are great, they are there if you need them but just leave you to enjoy your break. thank you for a fantastic weekend we will be back!
Joanne
We were very pleased with the accommodation. Very clean, warm and welcoming. We hope to return.
Gillian
We had a lovely stay . We were very impressed with the cleanliness of the property the only thing it would have been good if there was some recycling bins in the house because it was very cold and icy.It would also have been nice if there was some sort of covering on the hot tub so we could have used it when it was raining .
We loved our stay here. The cottage is well kept, clean and comfortable, a perfect getaway, with everything you need. Our 3 year old grandaughter loved seeing the rabbits and chickens. Definitely recommended!!
Katherine
We had a great long weekend. The house is very large, well equipped and we loved the hot tub.
Nicola
We stayed for 3 nights but could only use the hot tub on our first night after that it wasnt heating adequately to use, we contacted the owner who said there was nothing he could do at the mo. Very frustrating. Choice of drinking glasses very slim, no 6 the same and the majority plastic which I understand should be used outside but if drinking inside glass is preferred. Overall I believe we havent received the facility namely hot tub we were told to expect when we booked and paid for the cottage which is not acceptable.
A lovely cottage that was very clean and tidy and the hot tub was fabulous. Great value for money
Richard
Everything was totally perfect and we hope to stay again in the future. Many thanks
We had a lovely week at wayside cottage. The cottage was cosy, clean and very well equipped. The hot tub was amazing after a day out exploring. This cottage is perfect base to explore York, Scarborough and Whitby. We would recommended this cottage and hope to return ourselves.
Holiday away with some friends and we had a fantastic time. All the amenities that we needed, plenty of space to chill and the hot tub was great. Couple of trips out to an air museum not far away and to Hull for The Deep aquarium which was really good. Would definitely stay again if we came up this way. Thank you!
Brilliant holiday at wayside. Cottage was so well equipped. Such a beautiful cottage and amazing land. We loved it and would love to come to back. Thank you.
Lesley

Hayley

Alexis
Really beautiful and comfortable place, was sad to come home!
George
Everything was as described and very clean. Just short of perfect, however as we were a party of all adults there being only one shower despite having a second bathroomen suite was a bit of a problem and time consuming in a morning. On vacating the property on last day there were no instructions as what to do regarding supplied bedding and towels. We stripped beds and placed all used towels in bathroom as we have been instructed to in previous rented holiday cottages. Despite the above we had a fantastic time and the hot tub was brilliant.
Melenie
Excellent stay, couldnt fault the property. Some general info on how to use oven, hot tub etc would be useful some people may need this but we worked it out and also wi fi codes could be left we found on back of hub. If you dont always want to drive the bus service was very handy being only 2 minutes from the property, took only 45 minutes to get to York. Hope to rebook for next year as we loved it and had a very relaxing stay.
Sandra
A lovely week, comfortable, clean house. Hot tub was a great addition and spotlessly clean. Lots of towels provided, and the milk and cakes on arrival was a thoughtful touch. Would stay again.
We spent a week here for Easter with my husband daughter and our 2 friends and there son we had a lovely week. The cottage is brill lovely and clean the kids had a brill time they lived the hot tub as did we they loved seeing the animals in the garden the little walk that is practically in the garden is lovely which takes you to the little farm with free roaming chickens and hens rabbits and 2 turkeys the kids loved seeing them. We had dinner at the Chinese it was delicious on the pricier side but was worth it for how nice it was. There isn't anything around that is the inly downside not even any walks really. Apart from that it was the perfect house for 2 families to enjoy a home from home and relax. I would definitely book again.
Our second visit to this lovely cottage was as enjoyable as the first! We will definitely be booking again.
Abolsutley brilliant would defo book again Huge place bigger than pictures
A very good place to stay all the facilities you need hot tub as well very Near York great surroundings enjoyed my stay will be back in the future 5star.
Great stay well equipped beautiful property
