Snaptrip says

The Milking Parlour in York is highly praised for its cleanliness, spacious and comfortable accommodation, and serene golf course setting. Guests appreciate the thoughtful touches like cakes and milk, and the property's proximity to York and local attractions. The peaceful environment and friendly owners contribute to a delightful stay.

Guests that stayed at this property said

Guests consistently note the property's spotlessness and the fresh smell of linens, indicating a high standard of cleanliness that contributes significantly to the comfort of their stay.

The property's quiet, rural setting on a golf course near York is frequently mentioned as ideal, offering tranquility as well as convenience for visiting local sights and utilising the park and ride service.

Reviews often describe the property as comfortable, spacious, and well-furnished, with only a few minor comments about bed firmness and the lack of a plug for an electric toothbrush.

Facilities are generally praised, especially the golf course and clubhouse. However, some guests noted areas for improvement such as Wi-Fi connectivity and tennis court maintenance, which slightly affects the score.

The owners' thoughtfulness is highlighted by mentions of welcome gifts such as cakes and milk. While these gestures are warmly received, it is politely noted that such extras, though delightful, are not guaranteed.

About this property

York 6 miles. This contemporary, semi-detached cottage is peacefully set within the grounds of Swallow Hall Golf Club, close to the beautiful city of York. With the accommodation entirely across the ground floor, The Milking Parlour sits in a superb position for discovering the attractive towns and countryside of Yorkshire and historic York City, just a short drive away. Overlooking the well-maintained gardens, the cottage offers a sociable open plan living area - a light and airy place to relax together with a well-equipped kitchen and a comfy sitting area. Two bright and comfortable bedrooms provide a good night’s rest, and a family bathroom completes the accommodation at this lovely cottage. Outside is a front garden area overlooking the golf course, where you can relax on sunny afternoons with a picnic, planning tomorrow’s adventures. Practice your swing with a round of golf at subsidised rates. Take a peaceful stroll around the course or through the surrounding Forestry Authority woodlands, whilst within easy reach, the Yorkshire Wolds provide picture-perfect countryside to explore. A ten-minute drive takes you to the centre of York, with its ancient architecture, renowned restaurants, pubs and tea rooms. Make sure to take a tour of the city walls and the atmospheric cobbled streets, with quaint shops set along The Shambles. Return to this lovely cottage after a busy day, a wonderful base for friends and families seeking the sights of this rich area. Note: This cottage is next to Refs. 904237 and 931715, together they sleep 10.

The city of York needs no recommendation, for it teems with interest for the holidaymaker: the Minster, its medieval walls, boat trips on the River Ouse, York Races, museums (including the famous National Railway Museum and the Castle Museum), and the internationally-renowned Jorvik Viking Centre and its "time trip" experience. Summer and winter, there is something to fascinate the whole family.

    Warm, comfortable, excellent facilities. The owner gave us some milk and cake- much appreciated. We contacted the owner after I damages a concrete urn outside the property. Melissa set our minds at rest and told us not to worry, and to enjoy our holiday, which we did.. Thank you melissa
