2 bedroom accommodation in Harrogate

My wife and I really loved our long weekend break at the Dovecote. The cottage was warm and cozy and the welcome hamper was a nice touch. It is very quiet and away from the bustle of modern living. We are planning to return early next year.

The Dovecote is a very cozy and well equipped cottage with lots of good walking routes for our two golden retrievers which were warmly welcomed. Harrogate is only a 15 minute drive away and it offers easy access to the Yorkshire Dales. There are a number of excellent dog friendly pubs close by also offering excellent food.

Lovely location, Dovecote is nicely presented. Very warm and cosy. We were 4 adult staying there. The settee is very comfortable however the 2 chairs were not as comfy. All the amenities required for a stay at Dovecote are there. Lovely welcome pack and a special welcome from Sir James too.

Lovely estate, good for walks. Cottage is quiet and peaceful perfect place to unwind and recharge. Several National Trust properties close by, Harrogate is close by and York is not far.Would recomend it to anyone looking for an peaceful break.

A delightful cottage in a beautiful setting. It felt very homely and is well equipped. Ideal location to explore the surrounding area.

A very relaxing holiday in lovely surroundings.If you like walking your dog,birdwatching and great scenery.A contrast is offered by nearby towns of Harrogate and Knaresborough.If you stay during winter,pack the wellies and waterproofs.The local village of Birstwith has shop for essentials and a great dog friendly pub.

What a lovely find !!! In the grounds of Birstwith Hall gorgeous little cottage everything you could want for a stay in this wonderful area. Beds were comfy. Kitchen well stocked and the lovely present of eggs, bread, a lovely cake and milk. The bottle of Prosecco was a nice touch too. Flowers in vases just lovely old world charm. Would definitely recommend staying here if you want a quiet place to stay yet not far from all Yorkshire has to offer.

Well appointed, clean and quiet, this cottage is in a lovely albeit isolated position but not too far from a small village. The owner visited us personally even though we were there for only 3 days, and provided an excellent welcome pack of local produce. There’s even a local cat to fuss if you’re a cat lover like us!

Beautiful cottage with amazing grounds, kids loved feeding the ponies very traditional, lovely and relaxing. Definitely love to stay again

Spent a long weekend in October at the Dovecote and enjoyed ourselves despite the wet weather. The accommodation was warm and cosy and very well equipped. The welcome was equally warm and friendly and the welcome basket the best we've ever experienced, bread, butter, milk, honey, marmalade, eggs, biscuits plus a bottle of prosecco- everything you would have needed for a breakfast the following morning! The surrounding countryside was beautiful and the lanes although narrow at points were easily navigated to main road for Harrogate, Rippon etc. We were attending a Wildlife Tourism event at the Harrogate Convention Centre so just a 20 minute drive away. We spent the other day walking around Fountains Abbey and the parkland - again beautiful and were lucky to see the Deer very close. Can definitely recommend the Dovecote for a long weekend at anytime of the year. Thank you for a lovely stay and being so welcoming - special hello to Scrappy (black cat) always there in the morning to say hello!
