Wonderful family holiday

My whole family enjoyed their stay. The pool was a big hit, as was the tennis court, and croquet lawn. Facilities were excellent, friendly owners who went above and beyond our expectations. Would highly recommend and plan on another visit.

Enjoyable retreat

Enjoyed the spacious house and the amenities , the kids and younger adults enjoyed the pool although it was only 18 deg outside and a bit windy, good list of local eateries all were good. Away from all the hustle and bustle of the city but also only 10-15 minutes car drive away. Park and ride close by also. Enjoyed our family get together.

Lovely place with great facilities

Lovely spacious property. The surroundings are so peaceful. We loved having the horses all around. The croquet and the swimming pool were great and so good to have them on site. Really close to York and lots of things to do. The hosts were very quick to answer questions, show us where we could play football and cricket and provide us with things we needed for the house. Overall very happy with our experience

Great stay

Just stayed for a week in August and had a great time. The house is very nice inside with good size rooms and bathrooms. In a lovely quiet spot which is great for walks. There is also the use of a good size pool. Good location to visit the surroundings areas in Yorkshire. The owners were also very helpful and assisted us with all our queries. Recommend.

fantastic Christmas stay at Prince Rupert House

We had a family get together for Christmas at Prince Rupert House and had a fabulous time. The house is a real treasure, set in a wonderful location. The rooms are all lovely and spacious. The kitchen very well appointed which was important as we were doing our Christmas dinner for 10 people. The dining room was lovely and easily would sit 12 people with ample room. We will definitely consdier another stay.

Wonderful property. Spacious and comfortablewith excellent facilities. Extremly well equiped even the barbaque is very big. The swimming pool is fantasic with a good shallow end and a very good size for a proper swim. Property owners lovely and quick respond to any quires.

Family holiday

Prince Rupert House is just an amazing propety. We thoroughly enjoyed our special family holiday together, and our newly born grandson arrived in time to join us too! Our grandchildren, aged 19mths to 7, loved the space for running around, secure garden for us, outdoor swimming pool used every day, great fun and such a relaxng time for us all. We hired a hot tub and so pleased we did for our stay. The house was perfect in every way, and so was our family holuday.

Great property

Prince Rupert House is a very beautiful house on a country estate. It has an outdoor pool which our grandchildren loved. Also croquet, tennis court and lots of walks. We had no issues with the house … it slept 10 comfortably and would accommodate 12. Great place to go and relax. 25 minutes from York and 30 minutes from Harrogate. All in all a lovely time together as a family. No complains at all. I can heartily recommended this place. They also have smaller properties too.

Wonderful countryside stay

The experience at Rupert house was amazing from start to finish! From the welcome basket to the communication with the host and then back to the cleanliness of the property. It’s set in an idyllic bit of land filled with horses, a croquet lawn, grass tennis courts and an outdoor swimming pool with fields for miles, all of which is readily available to you with all the equipment. The garden to the side of the house is also stunning with plenty of seats for everyone and such a sun trap for the majority of the day (literally 8am - 7pm). York is only a stones through away if you fancy a wonder round the town but that’s not something we needed! None of this compares to how well we were treated by all around us! Consistently helpful and a pleasure to stay with. Would 100% book again and hopefully we will. Thanks again Lucy! You’re a wonderful host

Excellent weekend with friends

Stayed with 10 friends on a stag weekend. The property and grounds are beautiful and steeped in history. A bit out of the way, but if you have a car, it's not too far to get into York and see the sights. Amazing for stargazing on a clear night. The hosts were incredibly kind, welcoming and accommodating. Nice comfy beds. Showering in the bath took a bit of getting used to but we managed! A note for any disabled guests: there is a bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor but there is a step to get into the shower and there are no handrails. This ended up not mattering to us as the member of our party who used a wheelchair was unable to make it. Overall, a lovely weekend. Thank you!
