I had a lovely few days at Rusty’s with my hearing dog Gretel. Beautiful cottage, immaculately clean with every comfort needed and so much attention paid to detail. Generous welcome pack was appreciated and Sally, the owner onsite the perfect host. It was lovely to see the very friendly ponies, rams and chickens just over the fence in the paddock. Very convenient location, just a few miles to park & ride into York. I would like to stay for longer next time, maybe one week.
