“Perfect for us”
Reviewed April 2, 2018 for a stay in March 2018

This is our second year at The Old Forge and we enjoyed it just as much as ever.
If you want a lovely holiday come to Great Ayton, have a Suggets ice cream a pork pie from the butchers, a walk up Roseberry Topping and stay at The Old Forge.

Perfect

“Great Christmas Gathering”
Reviewed January 12, 2018 for a stay in December 2017

The house is in a lovely location with plenty of amenities ,shops and Pubs within the village with plenty of open spaces for dog walking and hiking.
The house is of a good size and was clean warm and comfortable with a well stocked kitchen.
We were warmly welcomed by the owners who had thoughtfully provided a decorated Christmas tree and a beautiful seasonal welcome food pack, which was gratefully received.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay as did the whole family thank you very much.

“Perfect!”
Reviewed January 11, 2018 for a stay in December 2017

Lovely clean and comfortable property, in a very nice area. All amenities just a stone's throw away from the door. The owners have thought of pretty much everything. We loved our few nights here with the open log fire. Would highly recommend! Thank you.

Wonderful cottage in a central location near to village shops and pub. Lovely open fire. Fantastic for larger family gatherings. Excellent walk from the cottage to the top of Roseberry Topping with amazing views. Comfy beds, two good showers and kitchen very well equipt. Nice touch with welcome provisions on arrival. Thanks for a great weekend.

Thank you for your great review - we try very hard to make our guests comfortable but we can't help the North Yorkshire weather unfortunately! Hopefully you will have some sunshine on your next visit to The Old Forge.
