Beautifully Renovated Rural Period Cottages, 3 Miles From York, Sleep 2-6, Pets Welcome, Parking

Originally built as farm cottages, Orillia Holiday Cottages have been completely renovated and refurbished to provide superb and luxuriously comfortable accommodation, full of character and charm. These delightful period cottages retain many of their original features, yet contain all modern conveniences and facilites. Situated in the centre of Stockton on the Forest, a picturesque village set in peaceful countryside, they are just three miles from the historic city of York. The cottages enjoy a quiet, rural position, tucked away behind a 300 year old farmhouse, which, under the same ownership, provides bed and breakfast accommodation.

Stockton on the Forest is a beautiful Yorkshire village with a facinating history. It was originally a clearing in the Forest of Galtres, a forest that Henry VIII had cut down to use the wood to build a fleet of ships. Now Stockton on Forest is a quiet country village, complete with shops, a pub and a convenient frequent bus service to York. The cottages have either one or three bedrooms and can sleep 2 to 6 guests. All bedlinen, towels and tea towels are supplied and cots and high chairs are available on request. There is a residents' payphone and ample car parking space provided. Pets are welcome in the cottages by prior arrangement.*7 nights minimum booking between June and September*
