Cherry Tree house is in a great location just a ten minute walk from the centre of picturesque Helmsley. The owner is onsite and popped in regularly with items we felt should have been there when we arrived. There is no welcome pack which would have been nice if only with some essentials in. The house is in need of some maintenance especially oRead moreutside and upstairs as it is very tired and a lot of things didnt work. We thought this house would suit a family with children better than a group of mature adults who want a bit more luxury accommodation. On the plus side the beds were very comfortable, lovely quality bed linen and bedding and the house was clean. The kitchen was a good size for a group and was adequately equipped. Hide

The key safe system worked perfectly and the owner stopped by to advise on lighting and with recommendations in Helmsley.

Its a 5 minute walk into Helmsley and my 82 year old parents with hip and knee issues both found it easily walkable. The owner, who lives next door, popped in most days to ask how things were going despite giving his number out to contact him if there were issues. A fantastic stay in a great house ! Hide
