Old Oak Cottages are situated in a delightful rural location, just outside the pretty village of Little Thirkleby, on the edge of the North Yorkshire Moors, boasting spectacular views across unspoilt countryside towards the White Horse of Kilburn.
This wonderful cluster of 8 luxury holiday cottages have been beautifully converted from Barns, Stables and an old Potato Store and retain many original features.
Each cottage offers the highest standards of comfort and design, and we ensure our standards of maintenance and housekeeping are of the highest level and it is also good to know that a significant proportion of our guests is based upon repeat custom and recommendation. Our number one priority is customer satisfaction. We have many, many outstanding guest reviews including Trip Advisor, Certificate of Excellence.
There is exclusive use for our cottage guests of our superb indoor heated pool, spa bath and sauna together with an all weather tennis court. This haven of relaxation is surrounded by 400 acres of well kept farm land, walks and duck pond. Children can enjoy the Climbing Frame, Swings, Slide, Football Net, Play Fort, Trampoline and See-Saw in the large fenced play/picnic field.
Great base in the heart of Yorkshire with lots to see & do all very near by. Fantastic to have exclusive access to the swimming pool during a heatwave; kept us cool & calm. Visible but not intrusive/ overbearing hosts that were accessible if you needed/ wanted. Considering a follow up visit in multiple cottages for extended family. Would heartily recommend if peace, quiet & countryside is what you are looking for with a short journey to lots of local amenities & attractions.
Spent time here with our daughter and young granddaughter. Stargate provided as it's an upstairs apartment. Nice to fine plastic cutlery and bowls etc. A beautiful location with good places to eat not far in the car. Having the animals for company was lovely. We used the pool everyday but could have used it more if there was an optional booking system to maybe pay for extra as the week we were there no one seemed to use their slot. Remember to bring pool towels too. Towels in the apartment are not very big. Bath sheets would have been nice.
A lovely family friendly location with gorgeous view...more
Lovely cottage situated in a brilliant location to visit West and East Yorkshire. Very comfortable stay, cottage very clean. The onsite pool made the holiday, time slots given so you can have the pool to yourself.
We had the most lovely stay at Old oak Cottages. Owl cottage was beautiful, our host Amy couldn't have been nicer. My Grandson absolutely loved Griff the pony who is the sweetest little Pony he also loved feeding the chickens. The views of the white horse are amazing. Just a really lovely place to relax also brilliant base for visiting various places. Sutton Bank is a must as the views from the top are breathtakingl.
Our second stay at Old Oak Cottages, a beautiful, spacious and spotlessly clean lodge with every amenity you could possibly need. Three good sized bedrooms, large lounge/dining area, kitchen, utility room and hallway. Two bathrooms to use and a downstairs cloakroom with a toilet and shower.
Whilst staying at Old Oak Cottage’s guests have the use of a large indoor swimming pool, each lodge has their own private time ( we needed to change our time on a couple of days and Amanda accommodated us on both days) there is also a communal time too. Lovely fresh towels are provided as is a welcome ham...more
This was our third visit to Old Oak Cottages and the welcome was as good as ever.
We had one minor problem around EV charging but that was fixed promptly
This is the 4th time we have stayed at Old Oak Cottages - it's one of our favourite holiday locations. Amazing value for money, the cottage is absolutely lovely - spacious and well fitted. The swimming pool is the children's favourite part of the cottages, it's a brilliant facility and well maintained. The owners are friendly and helpful and it's the ideal get away. The farm is beautiful - we will absolutely be back.
