Overview
Property code: OC-93898

Tollerton, a charming village near York, is an ideal base for holidaymakers exploring the surrounding attractions. York, with its iconic Minster and historical charm, lies a mere 11 miles south. Harrogate, renowned for its elegant spa town ambience, is a scenic 22-mile drive west. Easingwold, a market town with a bustling market square, is just 7 miles away. A short distance from Tollerton is the majestic Castle Howard, 16 miles, an impressive stately home surrounded by breathtaking gardens, making it a must-visit destination. The Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, encompassing Castle Howard, offers enchanting landscapes for hiking and exploration. Travellers can immerse themselves in the region's history, culture, and natural beauty while enjoying the convenience of Tollerton's peaceful setting.

As you step through the entrance, you're welcomed into a spacious hallway that’s been thoughtfully designed with hooks for coats and a convenient spot to leave behind muddy boots. Venture further into the open-plan living space, where high ceilings and characterful beams draw the eyes upward, and floor-to-ceiling windows invite natural light to flood the area. This expansive space seamlessly integrates a well-equipped kitchen, a charming dining area, and a lounge adorned with a cosy wood burner – an inviting sofa to relax on while watching a film on the smart TV. There is a ground floor WC and a utility room housing a washer/dryer. Ascend the stairs to unveil three bedrooms – a versatile super-king zip-and-link, a luxurious super-king with an en-suite shower room and WC, and a snug double room. Each bedroom features ample storage space, USB power sockets, and a Smart TV for leisurely lie-ins. The family bathroom boasts a bath with an overhead shower and a WC.

Slide open the glazed doors from the lounge to access your private patio, where a bubbling hot tub beckons beneath a star-studded sky. Complete with outdoor furniture, it's the perfect setting for summer BBQs, creating a seamless transition between indoor comfort and outdoor relaxation. Parking for two cars is also provided in the shared carpark by the cottages.

This is a modern, cosy and well appointed cottage. The welcome basket of local produce and bubbly was appreciated, as was the basket of logs that ensured warm evenings around the fire. The hot tub in January is a lovely treat too. We really enjoyed our stay.

This was our second visit to this property this year. Everything about the property was just as good this time as it was back in May. Thanks to Claire and the family for all the effort put in to make our stay as comfortable as possible. We used the cottage as a base from which we could visit York. The Park and Ride scheme is excellent, the ChristmaRead mores market hell on earth but a special mention goes to Lucia Italian restaurant for one of the best meals we have had in a long time. Hide

This cottage is one of the best we have ever stayed in. It is really well equipped, beautifully decorated and clean. The beds were very comfortable. The hamper was a really nice touch with much of the produce having come from the local shop. We only stayed a few days and wished it could have been longer. The York park and ride is just a few miles dRead moreown the A19 and very useful for getting into the centre of the city. Hide

We enjoyed a fantastic stay at Broody Barn. The accomodation was extremely comfortable and of the highest standard. The kids loved the hottub and it was great having the village shop nearby for supplies. Really good spot for exploring York and the surrounding area. The owners were most helpful and we'll definitely look to book again in the future.

Fabulous property, well presented and very clean and comfortable. A nice touch was a welcome hamper on arrival with essentials like bread, milk and eggs from the local village store. Property is in a quiet village location but within easy reach of York.
