Middlethorpe Cottages
The location and presentation of the cottage was excellent, a pretty location, close to our family in Bishopthorpe Rd, with off road parking, which was what I was looking for when booking the week's holiday.
However my daughter has Cerebral Palsy, and it was not obvious from the photos on the website as to whether there was a bath or a walk-in shower in the bathroom. I phoned to verify, and was told it had a walk in shower ,so I went ahead and booked no 6.
To our disappointment, when we got there, it had a bath with a shower over!
I had spent two or three long sessions on the website looking for a property with a walk in shower in the right area of York with parking nearby!!
Fortunately we had packed 2 suction grabs as a precaution and with a lot of trepidation and practice runs she was able to access the shower with my supervision.
Having said all that, the advantages of location, and the prettiness of the surroundings (but not the A64 constant noise) outweighed the problem of the bath and we would happily return again, with the suction pads!!
Also, the blind in the bathroom is broken and needs replacing and the hot water tap in the basin wobbles. We had to use the bathroom in the dark at night for privacy!!
I have kept the details of our booking and will definitely think about booking again.
Thank you
