House vacation rentals in Heslington

This hidden gem was perfect for our family getaway, away from the hustle and bustle of day to day life. we were welcomed with a smile, and a beautiful home made cake and loaf of bread, as well as a fun "boo-basket' with hot chocolate, smores ingredients and a pumpkin to carve. cottage was exactly as described and clean and tidy. we loved the indoor swimming pool and games room, allowing us the holiday fun irrespective of the weather. The Coachman Inn pub only a mile away, had the freshest pint and one of the best steaks we've ever had. close to Pickering, were we took the steam train to Goathland, and Dalby forest to go swing at Go Ape and ride bikes. and only 30 mins from Whitby to get a dose of sea-side and fish n chips! the grounds of the cottage were beautiful too, for a lovely evening stroll, where we met the sweetest chickens and ducks. Truly a fab week away to recharge the batteries !! thanks so much!! and will definitely recommend!

Excellent accomodation. Just fantastic. The kids and us had so much to do and so much to see on The grounds alone which is extraordinary. Stunning fish pond with lots of massive fish. Impressive walks with space for a camp fire which was well utilised. Chicken to feed and tasty apples from a few apple trees. Then there's the indoor swimming pool, the main reason we chose this property and we weren't disappointed. The kids LOVED IT, we all did. You get about 2 or 3 hours swimming time in total a day which is just great. Can't beat the location either, lots to see and do in close proximity. Cottage was clean, tidy and had all we needed. The hosts were splendid also, easy to contact and respond promptly. They'll assist in any way they can. We're certainly looking forward to rebooking for our next holiday. Thanks.

One of the best places we have ever stayed in for one of our regular meets. The heated swimming pool was the main reason we chose it. It was also very spacious, clean and in a great location. Will be back soon!

Fantastic accommodation and great facilities. The whole family loved the pool, hot tub and the pizza shack! Beds really comfy. Definitely recommend!

Perfect location. Perfect house. Perfect host. I stayed in Orchard House with my husband, daughter, son in law and two grandchildren aged 12 and 14. The host was so kind and had left milk, bread and a home made loaf for us. One morning we found a bowl of peaches from her garden on our doorstep. Jacqueline is nice and friendly and is available if you need to know anything. We loved everything about the house. Plenty room for us all. Great sized living room. Kitchen come dining room was ideal as were the 3 bathrooms. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need. The appliances are new and of the highest quality. Also made use of the log fire when we returned at night. We all enjoyed the swimming pool and table tennis. These activities were such an added bonus. A quiet peaceful location close to so many beautiful villages. Visited Thornton-le-Dale, Malton, Pickering, Scarborough, Filey, Eden Camp, Flamingo Land, and went on the NYMR steam train from Pickering to Whitby.

We had a big family gathering with lots of coming and going over four nights. Sue was really kind - from unexpected dogs to over enthusiastic kids, we couldn’t have asked for better, more patient hosts. Really special weekend for lots of reasons and very grateful for such a lovely place to stay.

We had a magical stay at Apple Cottage. The garden, glass house, chickens and ducks were a cottage life fantasy, we did not want to leave! The pool was amazing. The local area was pretty and we would definitely recommend a trip to Thornton-Le-Dale.

Lovely accommodation great communications with host :)

Lovely house, great location very clean with everything you need. Nice and warm and easy to walk to from the station.

We have stayed at numerous Airbnb’s, finally we have found one that matches the description. In fact the lodge exceeds the description. Jo was friendly and approachable. Kept in touch prior to the stay and available throughout. The lodge is set in the grounds of the family home. The grounds are lovely and add to the experience. The lodge itself is laid out perfectly from the open plan living/kitchen area to the spacious bedrooms, large bathroom and an upstairs snug which overlooks the garden and park. Super clean! Not a water mark or dust anywhere. The bedding smells fresh and is ironed. Tasteful furniture and decor. TV’s in each room. Overall we felt the lodge had a lovely homely feeling. It was a perfect stay. We will definitely stay here again. Thank you Jo & Jules.

Great place for large groups! Very friendly and responsive host, will definitely be back for future weekends away :)

Very good stay, even when something was needed it was sorted quickly. Good location for pub and easy to get into town or other local areas.

Really friendly host, offered lots of help for our stay. Very clear communication. The house was great for a family stay, bedrooms were good sizes, very clean and tidy.

An absolute gem of a place! It's so close to all the amenities you need but feels so peaceful and idyllic at the same time. Christina was an amazing host and accommodated us in every possible way. Can't wait till we get to visit again!!

Very enjoyable stay. The property is really well located, and was warm and comfy. Thank you for the stay.

We had a lovely stay at this annex. We had pretty much everything we could need. The snacks and wine were a nice touch. The annex was clean and well-presented. It was a bit cold in the annex but there was a heater and an electric blanket in the bed.

Great place, does exactly what it says on the tin. Would definitely recommend. Great host, answered any questions promptly.

Well-presented house that matched the photos and replies from host were prompt and friendly; made us feel welcome.

Brilliant location and size. The property was very clean and the William and Ashleigh were very helpful and understanding.

Had a wonderful stay with friends. Lovely warm house with everything we needed. Would happily stay again. Thank you!

Pros Lovely big house great for groups Plenty living space and bedrooms Cons Location next to dual carriageway and McDonald’s. Fine for us as it’s winter so didn’t use the outside spaces but would have been disappointed if we’d visited in summer and wanted to sit outside. Bed in main bedroom was uncomfortable Garden was being used by nursery on the morning we were leaving before check out time

Amazing! well appointed and a great place for a nice get together with friends and family. really enjoyed the stay and would definitely stay again ! Thanks

Lovely well maintained place which was perfect for our group visit to Leeds. We’d definitely stay here again. Thanks Ewa
