Manor House Farm Cottage is the cosier cottage section of a refurbished Grade II listed farmhouse set in the heart of the picturesque North Yorkshire countryside.
Located between the seaside town of Scarborough and the village of Snainton, in the North York Moors National Park, it is ideally situated for peace and tranquillity, as well as for plenty of activity in nearby towns and villages.
Practically no light pollution means amazing dark skies for all you stargazers too!
Beautifully renovated, this cosy cottage comprises a Living Room, dining Kitchen, two Bedrooms, two Bathrooms, an outdoor patio area and garden.
Layout:
Ground Floor front door brings you directly into a dining Kitchen, which includes a fridge, freezer, electric oven and hob, microwave, kettle, toaster, dishwasher, and washer/dryer. The kitchen is well-equipped for preparing, cooking, and serving meals for four guests.
A door from the entrance leads to a twin bedroom with two single beds, wardrobe, bedside cabinets, and dressing table. French doors from this bedroom open out to the patio and back garden.
There is a bathroom next to this bedroom comprising a shower, wash hand basin and W.C.
Through an open doorway from the kitchen is a cosy living room with a sofa, armchairs and coffee tables, and a fireplace housing an electric stove.
First Floor (up steep steps from living room) is a double bedroom with king-size bed, bedside cabinets, wardrobe, and dressing table. The en-suite bathroom comprises shower, wash hand basin and W.C.
There is a small garden at the side/front of the cottage, through a gate, which is enclosed with a low wall. There is also a long back garden, up a couple of steps from the patio area at the back of the cottage. Plenty of parking space is available on the gravel area at the front.
Up to two well-behaved dogs are welcome.
Heating and electricity included in your rental. We provide all bedding, bed linen and towels, TV, and WiFi (subject to fair usage policy).
Please note: Gardens/Outside areas not necessarily dog proof, even if fenced/walled, so dogs must be kept under control at all times, especially near farm animals.
Love the grouping of cottages which makes taking a party but giving family privicy so easy

The cottage has been done up to a high standard, is really comfortable and cosy. We particularly like the underfloor heating and individual thermostats in each room. The location is perfect for a quiet get-away but close enough to amenities. The guest information folder is well presented, with comprehensive details. We particularly liked the supply of photocopied OS maps. Communications with Country Cottage Holidays were excellent, and we felt we'd had good but unobtrusive personal service. We would certainly recommend it to friends.
There wasn't a calorie in the cottage on arrival! Some milk in the fridge and some tea and coffee bags would have been welcome. (I suppose this is what we had expected, as we always leave our holiday cottage guests with a 'welcome pack' of goodies for that first cuppa and cake).
The downstairs loo seat was wobbly - we tightened it up the best we could without tools, but that might need attention if you've not already done so.
The vacuum cleaner wasn't picking up - turned out the filters were clogged so we gave it a quick service. Not brilliant at picking up do hairs, but adequate.
These are just small points which are easily sorted.

Great location and usual standard of accommodation from country cottage holidays
Set of champagne flutes and some matching wine glasses. Some extra crockery would be useful so dishwasher does not have to run on half amount

Generally an excellent short break, spoiled only by the poor seating in the living room, which was rather past its best.
The location is wonderful and really quiet….not easy find these days.
Lack of hot water for a couple of mornings, but resolved quickly and with no further problems.
Small leak from kitchen tap reported.

We've stayed at this cottage twice, and both times, we've been hugely impressed by your customer service (many thanks for sorting out the bright light in the downstairs bedroom after our first visit, and for providing us with the missing towels so quickly this time). The location of this cottage is excellent, and it's very comfortable.
I wonder whether the oven in this property is starting to play up. We put it on to pre-heat once and found that it failed to do so; the only way we could get it to start to heat was to turn it off and on again on the wall. On two other occasions, the oven refused to turn off once we had stopped using it. It wasn't just the fan staying on for a while; it continued to belt out heat for another half hour after we had turned it off. Again, the only way to stop it was to turn it off on the wall. All other days, it worked fine. Perhaps worth keeping an eye on this and seeing if anyone else reports a problem.

Ideal location for relaxing and chilling out.
Only 2 tea plates. Small frying pan too small to fry for family of 4! All mattress protectors stained. Did not use 1st floor shower due to worrying safety issue. Water not only poured down sitting room wall, but it poured into a “live” double 13amp electrical socket! Armchairs and sofa….dog hairs, stained and in need of replacing!

We have stayed at this cottage on several occasions. We enjoy the peaceful location, the view and the standard of accommodation.
As the cottage and house are sometimes rented to a larger party, perhaps checking that both have got the correct equipment.
Cancellation: The Holidaymaker is liable for the total hire charge unless written notice of the intention to cancel the booking is received at least eight weeks prior to the commencement of the holiday. The deposit paid to confirm the booking, and other monies paid, will only be refunded if the Owner is able to re-let the holiday cottage for the period of the holiday let. In the event of re-letting, the Owner will retain the sum of 100GBP to cover administrative costs and (subject to deduction of that sum) refund to the Holidaymaker the balance of monies received from the Holidaymaker, or the sum received from re-letting whichever sum shall be the lower. Every effort will be made to re-let a cancelled booking, but the Holidaymaker is advised to take out holiday insurance to cover that eventuality.
