Loved Forge Croft - perfect base to explore the beautiful Yorkshire Wolds The cottage contains everything needed and is tastefully and comfortably furnished. The log burner is a winner for the cooler weather and Kay and Peter were brilliant hosts, as well as travel guides.
Lovely cottage, friendly owners this was our 2nd visit
Lovely clean warm well thought out and equipped comfortable cottage. Well placed to explore Yorkshire and the east coast, with excellent hosts
Outstanding cottage with lovely hosts.
Just as we had expected it to be from the website, a fantastic property newly converted to the highest standards. A great place for a relaxing break for couples with plenty to explore in the surrounding area. The owners, Peter and Kay, had left a great welcome hamper and made sure that everything was perfect for our break.
Beautiful cottage, real attention to detail in all rooms, welcoming owners next door
Beautifully converted forge. It was the best equipped place we've ever stayed in. Peter and kat were lovely , so friendly and nothing too much for them. Comfortable, well situated and in a lovely part of the country.
Lovely peaceful cottage with all amenities.Peter and Kay were excellent hosts.Fresh sweet peas on the dining table was the icing on the cake..
A lovely cottage, excellent hosts , we had a marvellous stay and would recommend to friends and family.
We really enjoyed our stay at Forge Croft. A quiet location but offering really first class accommodation. The croft was equipped with everything you could need for a relaxed break. Because the location was quiet we tended to eat in most evenings and the kitchen was equipped to a very high standard. There were plenty of places to visit within the area and access to the coast meant some very scenic and quiet driving. Peter and Faye were very informative hosts. Our only criticism would be that finding the croft was not easy as it is not separately signed. A minor point as overall we would certainly visit again in the future. Chris and Liz
Very comfortable accommodation & well kept property. Friendly & helpful hosts who have thought of everything & the property is very well equipped. A lovely location with a nice area to sit outside.
First class in every department. Now looking to go back in Sept. Unique restoration of the forge. Superb location, and a short ride into York.
Forge Croft was really lovely, everythng we expected and more. Attention to detail throughout and comfortable bed and settee - 2 bathrooms nice as well. The outside space attracted full sun all day and into the evening. Highly recommended.
This was a lovely and comfortable property with wonderful hosts. It has 2 bathrooms which was a real luxury for 2 people. The lounge was comfortable and well equipped with a welcome log burner. Only 2 small criticisms: the kitchen was so cluttered with unnecessary items that we could not find anywhere to store our groceries. Also the bedroom space was tight with such a massive bed and the bedside tables too low.
Very well appointed, cosy accommodation in great location and friendly hosts
Lovely comfortable cottage in a delightful location where there is lots to do. Very friendly hosts. Great area for walking and cycling.
A beautiful cottage & stay. Really nice hosts. It was a perfect location and we look forward to returning.

As all restrictions have been lifted across the United Kingdom, you are no longer legally required to self-isolate upon a positive Covid-19 result. You won’t be asked to take daily tests or isolate following contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19. This means, if you would like to modify or cancel your booking due to Covid-19, our normal terms and conditions now apply.
If the restrictions are reintroduced and you are forced to cancel your holiday due to legal restrictions, please be rest assured that we will help you to move your booking within the same property, offer a voucher to be used within the same property within a year or cancel your booking in this instance and we will refund you the price you paid in full.
If you are concerned about the potential impact of Covid-19 on your holiday plans, outside of legal restrictions, we strongly advise you to seek out travel insurance which covers you in these and other eventualities.
