We hope that you will enjoy your stay in this unique cottage with stunning views and spacious layout for 2. Holly cottage has under floor heating throughout which is powered by a ground source heat pump ,hence no carbon monoxide alarm is required. Holly Cottage was built in 2015 but our main house was built in the 1880s. We feel the character of the cottage compliments the main house. Gringley is a fabulous place to walk and explore, the pub is only 300 yards away.

We are looking forward to meeting new people and sharing our unique space. Holly cottage is attached to the main house but we have interconnecting doors that will be locked at all times during your stay, there are no shared rooms. The garden areas are shared with our family who live in the main house. We wish to ensure that guests are aware that: a) We will provide cereal ,milk, tea and coffee for you to make your own breakfast. b) Whilst no pets are allowed we do have a small dog that will not be allowed in the cottage during your stay. We request that guests use the plastic tableware /glasses for outside dining so we don't get broken glass outside. c) There is a small selection of travel toiletries for if guests have forgotten anything. d) It's a maximum of 2 overnight guests. e) For insurance purposes we ask that guests set the alarm when going out. We look forward to welcoming you.
