Andrew

We had a superb holiday in excellent surroundings. There was a terrific view from The Escape, and plenty of great walks from it. Nothing was too much trouble for Jane. As we were there for a fortnight she changed the laundry after our first week, giving us further supplies of Cava, brownies and flowers. Despite it being remote, we didn't feel cut o ff, with people in the other two cottages and family farm. We are already thinking of returning to this well-furnished, delightful, comfy cottage!

Nicola

This cottage is in the most beautiful location, perfect for walkers. Approx 1.5 mile to walk to nearest village, beautiful scenary, so cosy and quiet. If you are wanting to get away from it all this place ticks all the boxes, the bed is very comfortable and the oven and grill works great for cosy nights in cooking. The large log burner is a must on chilly nights. Highly recommend the Royal Oak pub for lovely food and a glass of wine by the fire, beautiful food and atmosphere.

Diane

Loved our time at the Escape. The cottage was really well equipped, warm and very clean. The Welcome Pack was an added bonus. The owner Jane was so accommodating when we had to switch dates at the last minute due to snow. Would love to return in the Spring/Summer.

We had a fabulous stay at The Escape, and Jane was a really lovely host. Nothing was too much trouble, and the home grown beans we were able to pick were the cherry on the top! The cottage is perfectly located in the midst of stunning countryside, yet only a few minutes drive to the lovely little town of Kirkbymoorside. Our primary reason for choos ing to stay in North Yorks was to go to Ryedale Festival - The Escape is within easy reach all the main venues, including Hovingham & Castle Howard.
