Host & Stay - The Cobbles

Perfect location in a lovely village

Pros: The location, the space and lovely comfy principal bedroom. Plenty of towels, lovely bedding and enough coat hangers plus lots of power sockets and two hairdryers.

Cons: The garden needs to be tidied, walls need painting, a proper floor clean where you move furniture and not just clean around them so a deep clean, cutlery is cheap and nasty,. Advised by a villager we shouldn’t be parking on historical cobbles so notified Host & Stay who would take that on board for future guests.

Pros: The house is lovely, spacious, well presented. The open space downstairs works really well keeping our family all together. Good available parking. It is situated in a beautiful village with glorious view and lovely walks. Good communication.

Cons: It wasn't very clean. Very dusty in places and plenty of cobwebs. I would say it is only surface cleaned between each stay. Also some of the kitchen cupboards need a clean. The garden 'in my opinion' is overgrown. I think the wild flower look is trying to be achieved but it just looks messy and uninviting. 1 dishcloth, 1 tea towel, 2 dishwasher tablets and 3 toilet rolls is not enough for a family of 5 for a week. The bins didn't get emptied as the day we were told to put the bins out was the wrong day!

The Cobbles ..again...

Pros: Been here now 8 times...location is great and house has all you need.

Cons: It's feeling tired now and I feel we can make this as an objective comment..some of the fittings are decidedly old...the cleaning was not to a full standard...the garden needs work and the cooker hob is pitted...we tried to clean it....its a shame as we have happily paid top money for this place...lots of rental properties in the village now for sale...maybe the margins are not there now....and the investment cannot be made...we last stayed in Feb this year and made some similar comments...no real sign of moving forward and at £1000+ it's now a balance if the value is still there...we love it and will put up with it...just feel a bit sad tbh.

Pros: We had to move the sofa and it was filthy behind so not sure how deep cleaned it was...this our 8th visit.

Cons: As above

Quaint house in a beautiful village

Pros: Lovely spacious accommodation with comfortable beds & lounge area. Location was excellent with parking at the door & local pub/restaurants just around the corner

Cons: Overgrown back garden- no window covering or opaque glass in main bathroom & hardwood chairs/wooden bench at dining room table. Also all other bookings take credit card details only for deposit however on this booking I had to actually pay £250 deposit in Sept for an early November trip & still awaiting a refund at end of November

Pros: location was very good liked lay out of cottage plenty cups and plates beds very constable

Cons: tv to small need more kitchen utensils no logs provided for fire . kitchen seating old not comfortable touch up pain work required need more cloths hangers as only had 3 and one was broken

Beautiful and cosy cottage in the perfect location.

Pros: Beautiful cottage, comfortable and warm and in a great location in the centre of Osmotherley. So we were able to take full advantage of the village’s ample amenities.

Cons: Nothing to dislike. It was lovely. Just missing a cafetière and perhaps a bit of kindling and wood to start a fire at 4pm on a winter’s evening.

Perfect accommodation in a great location

Pros: Well equipped, cosy and located really nicely in a beautiful village

Cons: Nothing of note

Lovely stay in the centre of Osmotherley

Pros: Great location, lovely and cosy! Beds very comfy and great showers/bathrooms!

Cons: Just check as heating was on auto in summer which I didn't think to check, trying to reach 24 degrees! Very warm! Easy to use heating though so easily fixed, just check when you get there!!

We would definitely stay here again

Pros: The house is lovely and spacious, the location is perfect. We all slept great the beds are very comfortable. The garden is enclosed for dogs

Cons: We didn’t like the cutlery, it wasn’t in keeping with the property
