Easthorpe Lodge Visitors Book - page 4
Thank you for providing such a lovely cottage for us to stay in. It is certainly worth at least the 4 stars. The information you provide for places to stay/visit etc is the best we have seen anywhere. At this time of year I fully recommend visiting Castle Howard to see their Christmas decorations. However, word of warning. Tuesday this week was the busiest day for coach parties. If visiting York, I would recommend The Biltmore Bar & Grill in Swinegate. Food and service was excellent. Rebecca, it was great to meet you and the welcome was superb. We even visited Sally Middlewood’s for coffee and cakes (chocolate meringues divine!). We would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone wanting to visit the Yorkshire area as it is so central and very comfortable. The provision of the cot and high chair was a great help, as we travelled with a seven month old baby. Hope to be back again soon and my sister might even bring her husband. Thank you so much. J & F, J & N – 5-12 Dec 2008 * * * * Wow!! This is a fantastic cottage! We have stayed in quite a few over the years and this is by far the best. Everything you could ever want or need – so comfortable and homely. We have thoroughly enjoyed our relaxing break. Thank you, Rebecca, for looking after us so well, especially at such short notice. We have been walking round Dalby Forest – beautiful with the frost on the trees. Saw the Xmas lights switch on in Malton, and can recommend the Thai House at Cross Keys for food. Going to Castle Howard today to see Xmas decorations. Very sad to leave the cottage, though, it’s such a lovely place – so peaceful and tranquil. We will definitely be back again soon! Many thanks. K & B – 27-30 Nov 2008 * * * * Wow! What a fantastic holiday cottage! Very child friendly and brilliant to have everything we could have needed or wanted here! Had wonderful time visiting family; will definitely be visiting again! Thank you, Rebecca, for providing all the required information we could have needed. Definitely best break we have had for a long time! Thanks again. Love S, A, V, J & E – 31 Oct to 7 Nov 2008 * * * * Had yet again another lovely break in this beautiful cottage. Really sorry to leave!! Managed to have a dry, albeit cold week visiting loads of great places. Hope to come back again as we have all become attached to this lovely little haven! C says thank you, Rebecca, for the meringues again! Yummy! Hope to be back again. L, P, C & A – 24-31 Oct 2008 * * * * It has been good to be back in Yorkshire, and have enjoyed our stay at Easthorpe Lodge. You have certainly put some thought into making this a very comfortable house to stay in. We would just like to thank you for your hospitality. We will certainly recommend the lodge to our friends, as it has all the home comforts. Hope to come back in the near future. Thanks again. D, N & S, Coupar, Angus, Perthshire – 10-14 Oct 2008 * * * * Rebecca – Thank you ever so much for letting us stay in your beautiful cottage. There wasn’t a thing we could have wanted for, and in such pretty surroundings to boot! Well we’ve had a busy week visiting all our family up here, and it’s been fab to see them all. If ever we’re up this way again, we hope Easthorpe Lodge is free! Feel we should recommend a pub, in keeping with the last entries, so … the Royal Oak at Nunnington’s pretty good – proper portions too! Castle Howard is definitely worth a visit, York’s beautiful and there are numerous villages to visit. Beach isn’t far off either. Thank you again. J, D & G – 6–10 October 2008 * * * * We have had a very enjoyable stay – the cottage is so well provisioned. I think you have thought of everything! Although only here for a long weekend we have managed to visit Castle Howard – well worth a visit - and the coast. An additional treat was seeing Fountains Abbey by floodlight on Saturday evening. Of course the break wasn’t long enough and we will be back to stay in this beautiful accommodation with the rest of the clan very soon. I will definitely recommend to friends and family. Thank you, Rebecca. M & D, Great Bowden, Leicestershire – 26-29 September 2008 * * * * We have had a lovely week in one of our favourite parts of the country. The cottage is really well equipped and everything worked perfectly – even the weather behaved itself and we hardly had any rain at all. Thank you for all your help and for the provisions on our arrival. We found some really good eating houses not too far away – the Blacksmiths Arms in Swinton is excellent, and we renewed our previous acquaintance with the White Swan in Ampleforth. Thank you for all your help. Like many of your previous guests, we were sorry to leave! N & E, Cheshire – 19 – 26 September 2008 * * * * Very nice cottage, well refurbished and, most important, spotlessly clean! Have had a lovely week. Great location – loads to do. Recommend Castle Howard and North York Moors Railway. Thank you very much, Rebecca. The C & D Families – 15 – 19 September 2008 * * * * We were up in the area for our friend’s wedding and decided to treat ourselves to a long weekend. The cottage is so well equipped (just about the best we have come across) and the folders answer every and any question we had! Thank you for giving us a home from home. PS – Wonderful fish ‘n’ Chips along Malton Road! The F Family plus Granny! – 5 – 8 September 2008 * * * * |
