What a beautiful location with wonderful homemade food! A large group of us stayed and commented on the comfy, clean rooms, the garden was also a pleasure to sit in. Brett & Alix were extremely welcoming, we thoroughly enjoyed our Thai dinner. Will definitely return!

What a wonderful find! Our large family group was perfectly accommodated in a real haven of peace and beauty. Alix and Bret were wonderful hosts who were attentive and kind, they have thought of everything to give the guests a good experience. We ate at Park House one evening and it was perfect, from the pre-dinner drinks and snacks in the cosy lounge, to the meal itself - so tasty and great quality. We will definitely be back when we next visit family in the area and will certainly recommend Park House to others.

We stayed with our toddler in the family room and it was lovely. Great service and the hosts really make it out of their way to make you feel so welcome. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. Our toddler slept so well all night. We had dinner and it was amazing. Brett is a wonderful cook and the dessert was delicious. We will be coming back for another stay again.

Brett and Alix are at the start of their journey but they are getting things right that's for sure. Nice 2 course dinner with a glass of wine on Saturday evening and a nice cooked breakfast the following morning. Having some background music while dining would be nice.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Brett and Alix went above and beyond to make us feel at home. The evening home cooked meal was a very welcome and tasty change from pub food and nice to enjoy around a shared table with other guests. Likewise with the hot breakfast. Also, soaked boots were perfectly dry in the morning and we made full use of the laundry service. Located 20 min walk outside Ingleby but further along the C2C so allows you to get a head start in the morning.

We had a great stay here. Was a bit apprehensive when told about eating dinner with the other guests but the hosts made it very warm and welcoming. We had such a great night with lots of laughter and the food was brilliant. The bed was really comfortable too. The massive inclosed space was great for tess(puppy) to run around in

We only stayed over night but it was just so peaceful. The room was clean, warm and cozy. Andy and Victoria were great hosts too, we had a good chat and met little Dave too. Thank you for making us feel welcome.

One of the cheaper of the 17 accommodations I booked for the C2C. A nice old rambling building in a beautiful setting. Brett, the new manager, was very friendly and we checked in early and wandered through the cosy downstairs rooms and up to a nice bedroom. Nicely furnished, clean and with comfy beds. It had a small walk-in shower which seemed to lack a little oomph and heat. The nearest eatery was the Blue Bell pub just under a mile away – but Brett was just beginning to serve evening meals. Breakfast was plentiful and a good variety; the hot breakfast was local produce and very tasty.
