What could be better?!

The annexe was beautifully clean - carpet in the main area rather than the hard flooring that many properties have these days - (although I understand why as it's probably easier to clean than carpet) however, that made it very cosy & so warm. Everything was lovely, I can't think of anything that was missing, the attention to detail was 1st class. Jean, George & not forgetting Buddy -were lovely hosts, available if you needed anything but not intrusive. If I'm up that way again for any reason, I'd love to visit again

Excellent!! Nothing else I can say!

Second visit to the Annexe and once again, everything was perfect. Incredibly clean, everything you need is supplied, direct access to the garden. Jean is on hand if you need anything. The annexe is very close to York and the park and ride is superb. We visited the Christmas market which was really good. Thank you Jean, George & the lovely Meg 🐶 for a lovely relaxing stay despite the weather! We will definitely return.

York Trip

The stay was excellent with lovely hosts. The annex provided the perfect base for us to explore the area. Modern and very well prepared, the kitchen and bathroom were ideal for the two of us. The bedroom/sitting room was comfortable and allowed us to relax when not out and about. The garden is lovely with a nice view across to the fields. Recommended to any couple wanting to see York, Harrogate, Whitby et al...

I had a lovely week here. The annexe is very well equipped, incredibly clean and in amazing condition. The bed was very comfortable as was the sofa & chair. I stayed on my own with my dog and it was a perfect escape. Jean, George and of course, Meg the dog are lovely. They are on hand & don't interfere The garden is beautiful and although the weather was cold it was nice to sit outside. I highly recommend the annexe and will definitely return. Thank you Jean & George.

Wonderful Stay at The Annex

We had a wonderful 4 day stay at the Annex last month. It was very well equipped and had everything we needed. Dunnington is a beautiful village and the Annex is in a residential area, a short walk from the local shops, pub and bus routes. We took the number 10 bus into the centre of York, which only took 20 minutes. The hosts were on hand if we needed anything, but they were not obtrusive, We loved York and visited Robon Hoods Bay and Whitby while we were there. I would definitely stay at the Annex again.

Most wonder Hosts. Jean, George and Meg.

This annexe is home from home. Has absolutely everything you could ask for, and superbly clean to a high standard. The garden is beautiful and you can relax out there at anytime. The owners were fabulous, greeted us on arrival and showed us around. Lovely gesture also was milk in the fridge, along side a lovely bottle of wine and a bowl of fresh fruit. Jean and George are always available if you have an issues or questions, but they also give you your own space which was great. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone for a getaway, and would definitely come again.

Our first visit but won't be our last!

A warm and welcoming check-in from Jean, George and Meg. The Annexe is beautifully appointed, set in a lovely garden setting and has everything you need; the fruit, milk, tea, coffee and wine was a lovely and unexpected touch. Dunnington is a friendly little place. Plenty of interesting walks from the door if you bring your four-legged friend - Belle, our black Labrador loved it. Good food and a cracking pint at the Cross Keys. Highly recommended!

Excellent stay at Dunnington

Our hosts, Jean & George, made us welcome to their spotlessly clean, comfortable accommodation. An unexpected touch was a large bowl of fruit and bottle of wine. The only small concern was that the internet was sometimes unreliable but Jean reassured us that they are trying to address this issue.

Charming, peaceful, well equipped holiday let in a quiet rural location.

We stayed for a week over Christmas, visiting family nearby. The owners are very friendly and helpful. The accommodation was warm and cosy and extremely well equipped. It was very quiet, with a rural view from the garden. Will definitely stay here again.
