Property Details
The Space
Spread across three floors, Badger Cottage has sash windows, beautiful wooden floors on the ground floor, and masses of space. The house features four bedrooms, two bathrooms, two living areas, plus a kitchen diner.
Guests can unwind on the comfortable leather sofa or armchair in the main living room after a long day of sightseeing. In this space, you’ll find a Smart TV with DVD player, a log burner and coffee table.
If you fancy some time reading a book or playing a game, we’d recommend taking in the peaceful surroundings of the second living which has space for the whole family to relax.
The exquisite kitchen is also situated on the ground floor and here you’ll also find a large dining table with chairs and a bench, ensuring all guests can be catered for – Badger Cottage really is perfect for families and groups of friends.
The kitchen includes everything you need to dine in, with plenty of utensils, pots, pans, cutlery and glasses.
Just down from the kitchen is the back door that open into the backyard. Guests can enjoy a spot of alfresco dining here if they so wish (if the North Yorkshire weather permits).
All bedrooms at Badger Cottage are cosy and welcoming thanks to the characterful cottage design that has been maintained; a theme evident throughout the property. All rooms have space to store your belongings during your stay. The house features two king rooms on the first floor and two single rooms on the second floor.
There are two bathrooms in the property, one on the ground floor and one on the first floor, both of which are supplied with fluffy white towels and starter toiletries for every guest. Both spaces boast large walk-in showers, wash basins and WCs.

Very clean & well specified property with the bonus of a games room which is great for children. Great heating system which takes very little time to adjust to the desired temperature.<br/><br/>We booked through booking.com & requested a cot for a 2 year old which was confirmed. On arrival though, it didn't look like there was a cot so we called Host & Stay to be told the property doesn't provide a cot & this was a confusion between booking.com & Host & Stay. However, we discovered a travel cot in a cupboard (which was well stocked with DVDs, games , shopping bags, etc) which, once assembled, served the purpose perfectly. Phew!

I was reluctant to write a review, but badgering emails kept coming.<br/>Overall we had a wonderful time and the cottage was lovely. <br/>But we had two issues, one of which was resolved during our stay - the keys to the games room were not apparent, and we were informed where they were supposed to be. This was not the case, but the host eventually were able to explain that they were in an adjoining property and how to get to them. Thank you.<br/>The bigger issue was the downstairs shower/ loo plumbing. Right from the start it was not right with water rising in the loo and gurgles in the shower. Despite reporting this within 24 hours, nothing was done and eventually toilet waste was coming up in the shower!

Immaculately clean, had everything needed. Homely , comfortable. Great place to stay<br/><br/>No locks on toilets just a sign on the door to turn if vacant or not.

Lovely clean, comfortable home which has everything you need. Great beds and showers and well equipped kitchen. Parking is on the opposite side of the road or in nearby streets on a first come first served basis so you can't always park outside the house but we always found somewhere to park not far away. Great base for exploring the area.

Good location, well equipped, lots of space<br/><br/>Detail of cleaning not good enough. Boiler not working night 1 and no follow up or apology from the owners or management company. A little dark on the ground floor. Too many messages reminding me about breakages and check out time during my stay
