Peacocks Rest Reviews

We had a lovely stay and would definitely come back. Beautifully clean. Kitchen is extremely well equipped. Comfortable beds. Having an ensuite in every room was fantastic. We understand why other reviews mentioned the hot tub. It wasn't as convenient as an electric one, but that is explained in the description we had no complaints about it, and enjoyed having it there.

Michael

Great property. We stayed with our 2 married sons, and finding accommodation with 3 double bedrooms all with ensuite is very rare. We arrange a family holiday once a year and this property has to be one of the best we have stayed in. All the bedrooms are nearly identical and good size. The middle bedroom with external doors was great for letting the dog out. It is very well situated for visiting York and within easy driving distance of many attractions walks villages etc.m We didnt use the hot tub as it does require in person attendance with several hours to fill and heat. Would have been nice to spend an evening in but as we were out each day didnt have the time to commit, so didnt really miss it. Used the logs for fire in the lounge instead. The property is kept in a very high standard, and the welcome basket is a nice addition. Great communication from owners. Ps for maintenance the lights & demist buttons on the mirrors in the first 2 ensuites dont work. Might be worth you considering offering hot tub fill and heat for an additional small fee for one day of choice. We would definitely come again if wanting to visit York

Amazing property in immaculate condition and very comfortable Highly recommended

Michelle

Had a lovely weeks stay at Peacocks Rest. Cottage was very clean, spacious and had everything we needed, perfect for a relaxing week away.

Jordan

A fabulous 2 weeks at peacocks rest. The property was lovely and clean. Everything was so comfortable and homely. Would definitely stay here again.

Elaine

Peacock's Rest is a lovely property. Very clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay and would happily return. The park and ride into York was easy to get to and provided good access into the City Centre and it's many attractions. We also visited Castle Howard and Burnby Hall Gardens.

Justine

Fabulous property! Very well equipped and extremely comfortable.

Louise

I cannot praise Peacocks Rest highly enough. Everywhere was immaculately presented & high quality furnishings & decor throughout. Attention to detail was everywhere & myself, my two adult children & sausage dog enjoyed our Christmas break very much. I will be telling all my friends & family about Peacocks Rest. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable!

Beautiful cottage, home from home comforts with everything you need, beds were so comfy and we all loved the pillows, we only got to use the hot tub one night as it took a long time to heat up and used a lot of wood, there isn't enough wood given for the hot tub and wood burner for more than one night if you want to use both, but all in all we had a great stay .

Phillip

We had a super stay at peacocks rest. The place was absolutely immaculate when we arrived. We loved the added extras such as the Christmas decorations being put up and the welcome hamper that was left for us. It really felt like a home from home

Lovely property, really good location for york, stayed here for a week just after getting married, only downfall is hottub is time consuming and took me a couple of days to get it warm enough to enjoy, other than that a brilliant place to stay.

Michael

Peacocks rest is a modern property that is very well maintained and spotlessly clean. It had everything we needed for a weeks stay. The beds were very comfortable with quality bedding. Fantastic stay.

Pieter

The only recommendation I would make is to use a What3Words reference to find the property whilst we didn't really struggle we find it makes finding anywhere much easier as the accuracy is much more refined than a postcode.

Gwendoline

Lovely clean and comfortable,hot tub was a bonus, we all enjoyed our time ... Lovely clean and comfortable,hot tub was a bonus, we all enjoyed our time together and on suits in each room, slippers and gowns and a lovely Complimentary basket

Lovely place to stay. We were made very welcome

Joy Helen

Visited early December Xmas tree & fairy lights greeted us on arrival. We had a wonderful stay, great welcome hamper, very peaceful & a good location for travelling around. Property was in good condition, well equipped & extremely comfortable beds & pillows. We knew the hot tub was wood fired as the property description clearly stated this but there were a few comments in the visitor book about it. Id definitely recommend & we would book again.

Lovely place to stay. We were made very welcome

Debbie

Great weekend stay. Property is definitely worth a visit. Ideally located for a walk into Pocklington or a visit to York. 3 great sized bedrooms , modern shower rooms and a living space big enough for 6 people to chill. Has all the cooking facilities you need and a dishwasher so no time wasted on chores! The welcome hamper was fabulous and a great surprise. Wood based hot tub took time to master and heat up so a small niggle and we'd know next time. We will be back x

Amanda

Absolutely amazing ! 6 of us have just returned after celebrating my 50th birthday at this property. Everything was amazing, from the Hot tub, a superb welcome hamper, comfy beds and plenty of space for relaxing. Would definitely return.

Superb, excellent stay at Peacocks Rest. A well appointed property with the owners leaving a superb welcome pack. Can highly recommend.

The place was perfect, but if some flowers or plants, be them real or artificial, would have been down the side or even near the hot tub, that would have given some colour when sat out. Other than that no problems and would go again.

Shelagh

This property is lovely! It is set in a rural location and the quality of the fittings and furnishings is first class. It's warm and comfortable and the hot tub is a bonus. There's lots to do in the area. I am happy to recommend this property.

Absolutely delighted with our stay in Peacocks Rest. The best cottage weve ever stayed in. Beautifully decorated with so many thoughtful touches. The lovely hamper for us and our dog was a lovely surprise and very welcome. We really enjoyed the hot tub! Situated in a quiet rural lane meant good dog walks. We really liked nearby Pocklington which had all the facilities youd need. It was also a good base from which to explore further afield York, Harrogate, Scarborough as well as beautiful wood and river walks. Thank you for our lovely stay.

Louise

The owners of this beautiful property had thought of everything and the welcome hamper plus other treats that they'd left for us were very much appreciated. We had a really comfortable stay in an excellently maintained property. We were a group consisting of three generations and it was suitable for all of us. The location was ideal for exploring the area. We hope to come and stay again sometime.

Stephanie

Beautiful property, built up to a very high standard. Peaceful setting and perfect for a family reunion!

Rachael

A lovely holiday house. Immaculate and very well equipped. We had a great stay.

Sharon

Amazing stay in Peacock's Rest. Welcome pack was great, including a cake which was such a nice touch. Very spacious. Very clean. Extremely comfortable beds. Everything we needed was in the cottage. Would highly recommend.

This cottage is absolutely beautiful and the owners are incredibly helpful. The design of the cottage is very well thought out with the kitchendiningliving area set up for real comfort for 6 adults and the bedrooms being separated from that space and all having ensuites means 3 couples can enjoy time together and still have their own separate comforts. Everything has been meticulously thought through from the really well kitted out kitchen and the layout to the beautiful decor. The garden is great completely sealed so the dog is safe from escape! and the hot tub is really lovely. Nice quiet setting and a short drive to Pocklington. Couldnt recommend this higher for friends or family wanting a break. Thank you Joanne and Steve

Absolutely lovely cottage. Facilities top drawer and superb array of little gifts left for our arrival. Lovely quiet, rural location and beautifully maintained. Strongly recommended.
