About this property

An exceptional, detached cottage nestling in the grounds of the owner's home in the small rural village of Ferrensby, 3 miles from Knaresborough. Exceptionally well-presented, with superb attention to detail, this outstanding cottage boasts first-class, ground floor accommodation. Featuring an open plan living area with underfloor heating and feature Velux windows, the cottage has a bright and cheery feeling throughout. The delightful kitchen is stylish and well equipped, whilst the cosy sitting area features a gas fired woodburning stove. The bedroom is stylish and with the modern bathroom, this is an ideal cottage for a romantic retreat. Outside is a small mature garden, including a 'well', and from the doorstep it is a short walk to the local pub serving fine ales and a renowned food menu. With beautiful countryside to explore, and heritage houses and castles to visit, this is the perfect cottage base for a romantic and relaxing break!

    Cosy and warm, ideal for our short break away. The owners are lovely, helpful when collecting the key, showing us around and how everything worked. Which is always good. Really enjoyed our stay, and will love to go back in the future.

  • Susan

    It should be noted that the local pub 2 minutes away has shut. Easy driving to Fountains Abbey, Harlow Carr RHS and Salts Mill (for David Hockney exhibitions), Brimham Rocks.

  • John

    A charming cosy cottage well placed for a multitude of sightseeing excursions. A lovely central gas stove for cosy evenings on cooler days. Easy access shower in fully tiled bathroom. A sunny cottage garden in the morning and a courtyard which catches the evening sun.both with table and chairs. Mark and Fiona made us very welcome ,and it’s obvious how hard they try to make your stay comfortable. We would certainly recommend anyone wishing to spend time exploring this part of Yorkshire to spend a week at the Sun House. The only constructive criticism we have ,would be to be able to open both access doors ,especially if you have limited mobility. It will not however deter us from visiting this excellent cottage in future.
