Visitor comments: We have shared our house with visitors to Helmsley for more than 20 years, and consistently receive favourable comments. Here are a few of them: * ...the perfect home away from home. We've walked for miles, eaten too much and quaffed a few ales. All-in-all the holiday most dream of. * Helmsley is Heaven ! Helmsley and area is like dropping into another world - so beautiful, peaceful and friendly. * A dream of a holiday! We all wish that we could stay longer in perfect Helmsley. ...we were always delighted to be returning at the end of each days' adventures. * We stayed here for one week last year... this year we returned with my parents and spent our whole two-week visit here in Helmsley. The house, as before, was perfect. * I want to thank you most sincerely for the level of comfort you provide to your guests. Every possible convenience has been thought of and having stayed in other self-catering homes over the years, I can say how much we truly appreciate it.

Other Activities: Great scenery everywhere - walking, visiting castles, abbeys and plenty more.

Wonderful place and perfect vacation area

Colleen and JP Upstate NY, USA
Review Submitted: October 22, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
First off let me say this was the best vacation we have ever had. The cottage was everything we dreamed of and more. There was plenty of room and it was VERY clean and quiet. We were given a very nice introduction and tour as well as a guide written by the Mason's. The guide had a ton of helpful information about the town, surrounding area and cottage itself.

We could not ask for a more charming town and area filled with things to see and do. A car is a must...as there are many things in the neighboring towns to see.

As stated before the Mason's and George (local contact) were very helpful and responsive to all questions no matter how small. I highly recommend this location and more importantly this cottage for a pleasant vacation. We are sad its over, but we will be booking again.

Richard, Eileen, and George...Thank you very much!

Very nice holiday!

D. + A. Franz Germany
Review Submitted: August 20, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
The described house was a very good place to stay. We were there with our 3 children at age 22, 13 and 9, and we all enjoyed the time. Helmsley is a little but very nice town, and you get everything you need. When we arrived the house was clean and all bedrooms were prepared. There were even fresh flowers on the table! It makes sense to have a car in that area because there're a lot of nice places and towns to visit. With 100% good conscience we can recommend this lovely place to other families!

excellent holiday rental property

middle aged couple Hedon, east yorkshire
Review Submitted: August 1, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
we stayed here for 4 days in july, you couldn't ask for a better location, very quiet yet only 4 mins stroll to the market square with all it's charming shops, deli's, 3 or 4 nice pubs and small supermarket.
The house has everything you need, comfortable and clean, it is ideally situated for sightseeing trips to whitby, scarborough, the moors etc. include a trip to eden camp if you can.great value for money
parking is good, right outside.Also a nice sunny private rear garden. We would not hesitate to book again.
