Cottage to rent with a log fire / woodburner in Elvington

Accommodation details

Discover this impressive wing of a Georgian Manor House with immaculate grounds in Elvington, a North Yorkshire village. This magnificent four-bedroom property makes a memorable retreat for eight guests and occupies a handy location for day trips. After a busy day exploring, make your way up the tree-lined driveway to marvel at your wonderful holiday home.

Just as attractive on the outside as it is on the inside, this majestic accommodation invites you inside to get stuck into evenings of board games in the drawing room or catching up with loved ones in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. A fantastic, fully equipped kitchen is ideal for self-catering, thanks to its two electric ovens, induction hob, and ample room to shift from one appliance to the next.

Enjoy formal dinners in the elegant dining room or gather around the wood burner for bowls of buttery popcorn and nights of cards. The first floor hosts all four uniquely designed bedrooms, including two king-size and two twin bedrooms. On sunny evenings, watch as the children and happy hounds bound around the extensive garden while the adults strike up the BBQ or toast marshmallows around the fire pit.

The blend of beautiful social spaces with modern facilities makes this a brilliant choice for celebrations and family gatherings. If you can drag yourselves away from this marvellous property, you'll discover many fantastic day trips on your doorstep. Stroll the myriad of cobbled streets in the city of York (8 miles) and discover independent shops and famous tearooms.

You can even wander in the footsteps of warriors at the Jorvik Viking Centre. From the property, follow the walking route through the private woods and find yourselves at Yorkshire Air Museum (1.5 miles). You will also be near York Maze (2.5 miles), the largest maze in the UK.
