Wheelhouse Cottage, Wheelhouse Farm, Sowerby, Thirsk, North Yorkshire, YO7 3AG

We arrived for my wives 40th Birthday - 6 Adults in total.

on arrival we had been left a bottle of Red and a basket of eggs - lovely touch

Sharon and Andrew are brilliant - everything from the pleasant hello's to making sure the log stock was filled up (for the Fire Pit).

very close to Thirsk and the local supermarkets

I cannot recommend this place enough and really hope to book again soon

Truly fantastic

This was a fantastic find with a lovely atmosphere and exceptionally clean. A great base to explore Yorkshire.

On arrival we were greeted by welcome gifts of wine,eggs,fresh flowers and even some milk . Inside the cottage is very spacious with a lovely open plan living space, the bedrooms are all good sized . This cottage has all the home from home things you will need and is in a good quiet location we found the large parking area very useful when our friends and family came to visit. Thank you again to Sharon for a great relaxing stay and also for being so helpful

The cottage is a beautifully converted, and very spacious. On arrival it was lovely to have fresh yellow roses in the house, a little Easter egg on our pillows, wine, milk and fresh eggs from the farm - lovely touches. Overall the cottage was very pleasant. Owner rang me back with recommendation for a local taxi service as we were attending a wedding locally. Lots of board games the children enjoyed playing.

One of the things that many past guests mentioned was the wonderful Yorkshire welcome - but we didn?t have one, we didn?t really meet the owners - we?d have liked to. On arrival we had a technical difficulty connecting to the free WiFi running on a hotspot, and asked for assistance with this. The gentleman came over but wasn?t too welcoming when trying to resolve and our only experience of the owners in person. Consequently, we didn?t want to bother them again over a couple of other issues we experienced - mainly the hot water supply running hot and cold in the bathroom/shower for our stay, which we put up with for the duration.

The double beds were very, very hard - single beds were fine (I know beds are personal taste, but this was one step up from camping!).

I?d also suggest that the kitchen equipment be looked at as for a family of 5, we struggled for larger pans and lack of casserole dishes, and some equipment.

Overall, a nicely converted cottage, well furnished and warm, close to amazing attractions of York, Byland Abbey etc, but we won?t return here when we return to the area.

Wonderful welcome with very nice owner . The house is very well rebuilt and has all the amenities we need and even more. Very clean and ordered, I found it one of the best I met in England.

It is very well settled in a quite place not far of everything.

Actually, I liked everything concerning the house, the place, the area I visited several times and I intent visiting again, if possible using the same cottage.

When we arrived at Wheelhouse, we were immediately met by our hostess who could not have been more helpful. On opening the door to this immaculate cottage, we entered a spacious hallway and with billowing curtains...it was a hot sunny day the 1st week of June, so Sharon had opened the windows and patio doors to let the air circulate for us. It was perfect! a welcome, balloon, bottle of wine and other goodies were left for us. It was The nicest cottage we have stayed in. All 3 bedrooms were big, airy and comfortable. Excellent bathroom and kitchen facilitie

the service that the young couple gave us was fantastic it was close to the market in the village. it was really nice just to have that break as i didnt have to do anything. the little touches just finished it off. we will be definately be visiting it again in the near future.
