The Fernery Reviews

John

Lovely, well equipped cottage in rural location. Decorated and furnished to a high standard. Lots to see and do in the area, but if you want to return to comfort, peace and quiet after a day out exploring, this is the cottage for you!

Simon

Fantastic location with ample dog walking routes on the estate as well as out to local villages and very friendly staff. Recommend The Crown Inn at Manfield an hours walk away which is dog friendly. The wood fired hot tub is great but it does take up your time to get to temperature. There is plenty to see and do in the area with Richmond and Raby cRead moreastles both worth a visit, as well as Hopetown Darlington the birthplace of the steam railway which has free entry and great interactive exhibits.

Diane

The cottage was beautiful and a lovely quiet location, which was exactly what we asked for when booking. The hot tub didn't work out for us unfortunately as we underestimated how long it would take to heat up each day, after we had been out all day visiting places of interest. The cottage interior was finished to the highest standard, a lovely baseRead more for a holiday. Hide

Nice cottage close to village of Barton. Overall very nice place to stay. Welcome pack was all local produce and very good. Beds comfy although pillows very hard. Nice doggy friendly place

Phillipa

A lovely stay for my birthday weekend with dog and my sister. We loved the fact there was a dvd player and loads of dvds in the snug. Loved the log burner fire and the extras for the dog.

Gillian

Had an amazing time beautiful relaxing scenery close to amenities

Valerie

Lovely cottage , comfortable and cosy . Lovely view from the snug . Quiet and secluded . Dogs loved it. We all enjoyed our week of walking then coming back and relaxing.

Neil

The interior decor was very well thought out, and felt fresh and clean. Situated in the grounds of the manor, along with a working farm, it was quiet and relaxing. The wood fire powered hot tub is a definite novelty!

Hayley

This cottage is beautifully decorated, well equipped, clean, with lovely soft furnishings & comfy beds. The location was quiet & fairly remote, right at the end of a long lane on a farm/estate, but a great base to explore the surroundings areas of Yorkshire. We used the wood fire hot tub once as it was quite time consuming to heat but our daughter enjoyed it. The only minor negative was the patchy WiFi, which affected us watching films of an evening. Overall we had a fabulous time here.

Kim

Arrived late due to bad traffic, no signage where to go once on estate, had to text/phone Jo who seemed apathetic to any communication. Not as clean as other reviews found, our dog didnt settle as lots of strong dog smells in cottage which I could smell. Lovely estate but no info on walks - basic ordnance map printed out, we ended up walking on theRead more Dales. Beds were very comfortable. Very expensive for what it is, as it is only 6 days! Hide

Trish

We loved our stay and were sad to leave after three days of exploring the spectacular Yorkshire Dales. The cottage location is picturesque, private and peaceful and interior beautifully appointed with spotless, comfortable spaces for eating, relaxing and sleeping. The welcome basket of goodies was much appreciated on our first night as the local pu b was not doing food. Our only regret was not having the time to heat up the hot tub. Hope to come back again some day.

Donna

Lovely cottage, great location. Felt very homely, everything I needed to cook an Easter dinner. I would stay here again.

Alison

A lovely cottage. Comfortable, well equipped in a perfect location. Clean, lots of helpful information provided. Very comfortable for 4, our dog also made very welcome. Hot tub was great. Lovely walks from the property and lots to do and see nearby. We will be back.

Melanie

Beautiful homely cottage. House was warm and comfortable. Bed and pillows were just right. Hot tub needed a good 4-5 hours to heat every day (longer on cold, windy days), but the owners provided plenty of logs to cover the nights we stayed. Lovely walks nearby and easy drives to Hamsterly Forest, Agarth falls and Bolton castle. We loved our stay.

Samantha

The cottage is in a lovely peaceful locations; with walks from the door all over the estate. The cottage is clean and well appointed; the beds very comfortable and the kitchen huge! All in all, a very relaxing place to stay.

Julia

The cottage was beautiful, such lovely decoration and very well appointed. It was great to have the outside space and for it to be so quiet around, really gives you the chance to get away from it all. Just perfect

David

Great location plenty of places to visit within easy reach ideal place to chill and have a relaxing few days away, would definitely return in warmer climate, well worth it

Charles

The cottage was lovely and cosy with a log burner. The only neighbours were horses and we hardly saw anyone else. The welcome from Jo was excellent and the welcome pack was a lovely gesture. No faults. It was a perfect getaway. Wouldn't hesitate in recommending.

Paul

Lovely cottage, very well maintained

Lynn

Lovely cottage set in rural location. Ideal for us to recharge our batteries. Driving distance to many local market towns, making it an ideal base.

Gaby

Absolutely fantastic cottage with everything that you could possibly need for a really enjoyable stay. We had a fabulous time and will definitely be making a return visit.

Margaret

A really beautiful cottage inside and out, country side and views lovely. We had such a lovely time just relaxing and taking in the sights. I would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a home to home stay in this holiday cottage, it had/has everything we needed to make us feel comfortable. Owners were welcoming and friendly along with other members of the family. Will try and come again next year, thank you to all.

Cheryl

Excellent accomodation clean, comfortable and very dog friendly. Lovely touches such as welcome basket and visit by Jo, all basic essentials provided even towels and toys for dogs. Highly recommended

Debbie

Absolutely fabulous cottage beautiful surroundings. So comfortable didnt want to leave. Great location for hikes and some breathtaking scenery. Owner and staff couldnt be more helpful.

Elaine

We had a very relaxing holiday with friends and dogs. The cottage is beautifully decorated and very cosy. It is very well situated in a country setting but close to all amenities.

Grant

The cottage was really nice and exceeded my expectations. It was quiet, relaxed and comfortable. The basket of goodies when we arrived was a very nice touch. The only problem was there was to much to see and do so we will have to come back as we did not cover off half of the things on my lists and we never got to walk round the estate or walk to th e local pub. Next time!

Emma

Amazing property, amazing location, amazing service! Would definitely return and recommend to friends/family. Jo was the most wonderful host, full of useful info and nothing was too much trouble. We were made to feel very at home. Highly recommend visiting Raby Castle, High Force falls and walking from the cottage to The Crown Inn on a Sunday - the Sunday dinner is the best weve had (the walk took approx 45 mins). The hot tub is a labour of love but worth the perseverance.

Roxanne

We had a wonderful time . Beautiful property and the owners and house "nanny" were so lovely and helpful. I will forever recommend x

Sue

Lovely warm, comfy cottage. Beautifully furnished with quality linen & towels. Great walks from the cottage. Would definitely stay again.

Rachel

This is a fabulous cottage. If you want to use the hot tub you need to get the fire going 4/5 hours to get the water to temperature from cold but it is well worth the effort.

Jessica

Really lovely cottage in great grounds. Everyone so friendly and helpful. Very child and dog friendly!

Tina

Very pretty cottage. Ideal for rest and relaxation. We had a lovely welcome hamper which is so kind, thank you. The cottage had fully equipped kitchen and everything we needed to cook meals. We had a lovely time and felt very at home as it was so comfy. Thank you for a lovely stay

Jennifer

We had an amazing stay and Olivia was very welcoming and helpful when we had questions for her. The cottage was clean and had everything you could possibly want. The garden and surrounding area was lovely and within walking distance of the local pub and shop. There was good information in the cottage about other amenities and recommendations for wa lks and places to eat. We particularly enjoyed the fish and chip van and Thai van that comes to the village. The hot tub was fab.

Situated in the Ripon area of North Yorkshire this popular theme park makes a fantastic day out for the whole family.
