Lovely cottage, quality furniture and fittings, spacious, everything you need provided. Lovely garden! Parking was difficult - a very narrow road. We had a van which would have churned up grass at side of property and a car was already parked immediately opposite the property, despite understanding there was space for two cars. Glasses in kitchen cabinet too high to reach without standing on a chair!!

We had a great stay here, the cottage was everything we needed and more for the short time we were here. The cottage itself was very cosy, comfortable and modern. The surrounding area was quiet and beautiful and only a 20min drive from York city centre. The guidebook provided beforehand was a nice touch, very informative and clear instructions about the cottage. I would highly recommend this cottage and will definitely stay again in the future

We stayed at Fawcett Cottage for 5 days. The cottage was lovely - modern, clean, cosy and comfortable. It had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. The guide book was very informative and gave us lots of help for our visit. The village of Tollerton is small and quiet with not a lot to do but we were aware of that before we booked so we were prepared to drive to our activities. The cottage isideally located for what we wanted to do including an action packed day in York! We will definitely stay again!

I am extremely disappointed by what happened with this booking. As we were about to board the boat at Belfast we received a phone call to say our Airbnb had cancelled our stay. First of all I thought it was a scam as they left it so late to inform us. When we arrived in Cairnryan we spent an hour trying to find other suitable accommodation. We asked you for similar arrangements and what you sent us was a down right disgrace. In face it was an insult to suggest we would stay in a tent!! The other two properties consisted of a one double bed room in someone’s house. What a distressing time it was at the start of our holiday. Here we were sitting in Scotland not knowing where we were going. I had also spent time before we left of working out mileage etc from Tollerton to various places. It was an absolute nightmare and I wouldn’t recommend this service to anyone. I also paid £25 to cover us with insurance and I’m still waiting for this to be refunded. I hope this payment will come soon.

Spacious, clean and comfortable Only an issue as we have a small child. A travel cot and highchair would have been super helpful so we didn't have to bring these with us ?. Also some salt and pepper in the kitchen. Otherwise cannot fault anything and would definitely stay again

The house is absolutely gorgeous, we felt right at home and loved that we had parking. All of the locals were so lovely as well. There isn’t much to do in walking distance but a 20 min car ride and your day is filled. My whole experience with Host & Stay has been wonderful. The communication was great and the welcome package they send on checkin was exceptional, it contained everything you could possibly need about the property and the local area too. We would definitely stay again.

The location is lovely, very quiet and friendly village and easy access to York city centre. The homes decor is beautiful and felt very comfortable. Some disappointing aspects though. I had sent a message asking if there was a real fire, was told yes but would need to take my own logs. Was very disappointed to arrive to find a fan heater and no log burner. The other real let down was the tv. I had assumed the home had wifi, however, there is no wifi and a smart tv which couldn’t connect to our mobile data. It worked for a few hours using the Free View via the aerial but then that stopped working and we had no tv for the weekend. So our plans for Christmas movie night by the fire were well and truly scuppered. Other issue was that the well stocked kitchen didn’t have any kitchen knifes. Neither of the mirrors were secured so very dangerous with little ones running around. No restrictors on low level 1st floor windows which was unsettling with kids. Easy fixes to make 10/10
