A cosy house right in the centre of Helmsley. It was comfortable and easy to access. But it's due a proper clean. There are quite a lot of unclean items in the kitchen and the limestone in the kettle made it unusable. Also, it's a shame they don't provide anything to light the fire with. I couldn't find anywhere in town selling kindling and wood so couldn't use in fire.

A great place to stay for the start of the Cleveland way. Very good kitchen with lots of equipment for cooking. Easy to walk into the centre and to visit shops and the two lovely bakeries.

The description suggests business owner. There was an impoverished amount of toiletries which given 2 night stay was inadequate. I body wash sachet and 1 shampoo for 2 people for 2 nights - in summer!!! Felt like a token gesture/statutory amount. I contacted host as maybe an error. Apparently not “starter amount” - but given no more was supplied I would have preferred no suggestions in the advertised brief for toiletries as I based my packing around the photograph. I would have brought my own. Description also suggested tea and coffee but again a minimum amount. Again had I known I would have packed accordingly. I felt v underwhelmed for more than £190 a night. I understand making a profit but in doing so there may be an element of missing the brief on delighting the customer. We have never stayed anywhere before that was so obviously budget focused

Helmsley is a great little town. Willow Cottage is the perfect place to stay. A really homely and smart 2 bed cottage. Everything has been thought through. A lovely little enclosed garden too. Perfect for dogs as well.

Great location within easy walking distance to the shops, bars and restaurants in Helmsley, all just a couple of minutes down the road. It was spotlessly clean with a lovely lounge, kitchen and decent sized bedrooms and bathroom, we even managed to enjoy breakfast in the garden which gets the sun. Great communication from the host and would recommend

Lovely cottage in a great location. Easy to check in. We were able to park outside the cottage everyday but there’s a large car park round the corner if you can’t park on the street.

Location is good for the town centre and the surrounding area. It is a small cottage with a secure garden for our dog. A problem with the heating was reported and whilst we had a call back. Nobody came out to fix it. So cool I. the lounge at night and in the back bedroom. Good job the weather was mild. Disappointing nobody called back or came out. Would we use again no. The balance is own space and cleaning cooking etc or hotel and the care that comes with it. Hotel next time. Third time using air bnb Spain, England and in Wales and we have decided it’s not for us. Minimal basics left for cleaning etc but high end prices.

Enjoyed a lovely long weekend at Willow cottage. Beautiful house, very homely and welcoming. Cozy lounge with log burner and very comfy beds and nice bed linen. Nice garden where you can sit out and enjoy a coffee or a glass of wine. Felt very at home. Loads to do and see in and around picturesque Helmsley and lots of pubs, restaurants and cafes and all are dog friendly as is the cottage. We very much enjoyed our stay

I rented this property as a Christmas gift for my parents so we could have a lovely mini break in Helmsley. The accommodation did not disappoint. Free parking, well equipped kitchen, comfortable living area and beds, quiet in the evening, lovely and warm, close to village centre for walking and easy access to key when arriving to the property. My parents loved it as did my husband and I. We hope to be back!

It was a really great home in an amazing location. The house was a good size for 4 people (and we also had 2 dogs). It had a lovely garden which was especially nice in the good weather. It had everything we needed - we will definitely be returning!

We decided to stay for a few days on the way back from Scotland with our dog to do some walking before heading back to London. We ideally wanted the option to check in a little earlier but when we enquired about this we had no response. The cottage was in a great location to pubs and easy to go on long walks. Annoyingly there were quite a few light bulbs out downstairs and in the bathroom. The shower had quite a bit of mould in it and the shower doors either got jammed or didn't close properly which was frustrating. Alongside this the temperature gauge in the shower didn't seem to be working properly which meant it was either cold or very hot. The kitchen was great and had good amenities. I think we have been used to having a few nice extra touches though which were missing at this stay. Often we have arrived to Prosecco in the fridge, a few bits of local produce and fresh milk, small things but make a difference. Nice cottage but felt lacking on the TLC for us.

Great little cottage, plenty of room and particularly nice to have a garden to enjoy the sun. Would also be nice and cosy in winter with the wood burner on. Highly recommended.

Willow Cottage is perfectly fine, and situated right in the centre of the pretty tourist hub of Helmsley. No complaints about the accommodation. The kitchen and rear garden were particularly enjoyable. I did have a bit of an issue about the fact that the property is operated by a management company, so there was a lack of the usual personal contact we have become used to with the usual Airbnb home. I also objected to having to make a security deposit, and to be charged a fee to have it returned. If you are happy to accept this corporate approach to staying with Airbnb, then you'll be happy with Willow Cottage.

The cottage is deceptively spacious and in a perfect location in Helmsley. It's equipped with everything you need and has a very cosy, homely feel. A perfect stay in the country! I'd agree with some other reviews that the shower needs attention as it was a bit fiddly to find the right temperature for the water. We also had some minor issues with cleanliness but Host & Stay we're very responsive. Overall, a lovely cottage and we'd definitely be back!

Lots to look round in Helmsley, decent places to eat and great dog walks. Lots of on road parking near the cottage too. Would definitely stay again.

It is a lovely cottage and very well equipped and maintained. The instructions are a little out of date - we spent 10 minutes looking for the thermostat in the front bedroom as instructed and we could not find any major channels on the television (BBCITV and C4) or any instructions. I don’t know what you can do about this until they move out, but the next door neighbours have seven dogs that live in the yard and whine and bark intermittently throughout the day and night. They also had a large dead animal under a tarpaulin in the backyard within view of the bedroom window. It looks like a large hog or a deer and based on the fact that also a dozen pheasants strewn around the back passage way we can only assume It was a country person living in a town who had brought home some roadkill to feed his dogs with. The woman next door told us they were going away on Monday and subsequently by Monday morning the carcass had disappeared. We wondered having heard a chainsaw that morning if he had butchered it in the shed for the dogs to eat while they were away. Not particularly appealing to live next door to this for the weekend and we left on Monday instead of Tuesday because of this.

Perfect little cottage in a great location for walking in and around Helmsley. Well supplied and very comfortable. The back door is difficult to figure out- locking and unlocking was a bit challenging, even for my husband who installs locks like that for his job. This did not detract from our stay, however. We wished we could stay longer. Very sweet unit and our pup enjoyed the back garden.

I would highly recommend Willow cottage and Helmsley for a stay. The cottage is central & walking distance to all of Helmsley. Lovely little market town with lots of great restaurants. Overall the cottage was a nice size with the decor nicely reflecting Yorkshire. Great communication and management for check in/check out & had all the essentials needed within the cottage & very clean. If you’re looking for a cozy getaway or just somewhere to lay your head after a day out exploring the beautiful Yorkshire - this would be a perfect choice!

Willow cottage was a wonderful place to stay. It had everything we required and the house was to a very high standard and nice and cosy. It's perfectly located for trips to the coast and surrounding areas with space to park for free outside. We loved Helmsley itself which is a quaint place with lots of fabulous shops, bakeries and restaurants. The food we had was superb. In all this was a fabulous place to stay and I would definitely return.
