Old country charm
Clean & tidy house with basic facilities. No internet provided & limited cooking equipment.
We stayed 2 nights and used York as a steppingstone to Wave Rock etc. house was perfect for my family and close to the Main Street in Town. Would recommend!!
Layout is good, a 20 minute stroll into the town centre, close to Mt Brown worth the effort for a beautiful sunset. In need of a good spring clean, the basics were fine just don't look too close. Only the very basics supplied in the kitchen. Yard needs some TLC.
Three bedroom house in York. The beds were good. Nice starched sheets. House was relatively clean inside. The outdoor furniture and verandah needed a clean . There wasn’t any detergent to do the dishes or wash your clothes . The basics were provided such as tea and coffee . The lamps only worked on one side of the bed. We enjoyed our stay in York .
This property is a 2 kilometre walk into town despite it being advertised as a short stroll which was disappointing and misleading for us as we wanted to be close to town, and we paid a lot of money for two nights which was grossly overpriced for the property which was very basic. There are lots of other much more appropriately priced places to stay in York. The backyard was just sand so there wasn’t even anywhere nice to sit and enjoy the property, including no fireplace inside or outside or any bath. Disappointed.
This was a lovely property. The house was well looked after, nicely decorated and absolutely spotless. Comfortable beds, good shower, simple check-in/check-out process. Also enjoyed the 20 min stroll to town via the Avon River.
Very neat and tidy. Loved all the small things like coffee, milk and hand wash.

Delighful Cottage!
We had a fabulous stay! Cottage is beautifully restored, comfortable, and equipped with everything you need. The amenities were good and the cottage was very clean. The host Kerry was very helpful and the little thoughtful details were appreciated. One of the guests in our group had family ties to the previous owner of the cottage and was delighted to see how the cottage had been renovated. Would recommend to friends and family and would definitely love to stay again.

Gorgeous holiday home!
Loved Percy's Cottage. It epitomises York in every possible way. Great location and close to all of York's treasures. It really is like home away from home. Kerry, was absolutely delightful and easy to liaise with. Will definitely recommend to friends and family and look forward to another stay.

Great place to stay has everything you need.
We had a great stay. I would like to let you know Kerry only thing we thought you need to know is the shower floor is quite slippery maybe you could get a non slip mat to put into shower. Thanks for letting us use your beautiful house would recommend it if anyone asked for somewhere to stay in York. Rhona
