2nd time we’ve booked one of the cottages. Everything you need. Super clean. We never took advantage of the tennis court or the fishing. But intend to next time.Short walk from the pub. Close to Thirsk and a short run to York .Beautiful local surroundings. Jeff the owner very friendly guy. I highly recommend.

From the very warm welcome by Jeff until our departure we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this very well equipped and decorated cottage. Centrally located for many enjoyable and interesting National Trust and English Heritage sites, not to mention the North Yorks Moors, Dales and coast. Many within just 30-40 minutes drive. Would thoroughly recommend for anyone wanting a relaxing holiday in this part of Yorkshire.

What a fabulous place to stay. 5 star converted barn, extremely clean and you didn’t want for anything. Jeff was such a lovely gentleman and we loved our visits from Tangles and Steve, 2 very adorable dogs. Will definitely be returning and once again thank you for an amazing stay.

3rd time visited this lovely cottage. Easy access to York . Northalerton’ and Thirsk . Dog and Gun pub only 15 mins walk along the country lane. Stopped for a drink and meal. Spotless and has all amenities required. Played tennis on their own court as free racquets and balls available. We meant to do a little fishing this time in their own little fishing pond but never got around to it again. We are planning on returning again next year and again with my sisters. Worth every penny.

Had a wonderful break here, couldn’t fault anything. Hubby happy with the fishing, the dog enjoyed his walk & I enjoyed just chilling out… Central for visiting many places. We will be booking again…. Thank you Jeff.

Recently stayed in The Shippen at Old Lower Moor Farm, the accommodation is exceptional clean, decorated to an extremely high standard in keeping with the surroundings and finished off tastefully. There was everything you need for a relaxing stay self catering if this is your choice, but also nearby is a friendly pub serving excellent food that is dog friendly. Old Lower Moor Farm is located in a very quiet picturesque location. Jeff the owner is always at hand to help and offer advice when needed. We had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend and stay again.

Old Low Moor Farm is the perfect place to stay if you are looking to get away from it all. Jeff, the owner, is very accommodating and everything was spot on from the moment we arrived. The cottage we stayed in (The Byre) was renovated beautifully and had everything you would need for a comfortable and stress free stay. The bonus for us was Netflix of an evening when we put our feet up with a beer and just relaxed on the comfy sofa after a hard day shopping in York or a day out at Whitby. The local pub (Dog and Gun) serves amazing food and is a short walk away. It was especially good for us as one of us is a vegan. We have booked to go back soon.

Once again great place to stay,great for fishing walking and great pub down the road, beautiful views of the country side,have stayed a few times ,jeff is a great host just leaves you to settle in,but should you need anything happy to help,WE WILL BE BACK.

We have just returned from a three day break at this wonderful place. This was our third stay, with each one as enjoyable as the last. The Shippen is ideal for us, as my wife has limited mobility, and everything is geared up for ease of use. The entrance door is wide enough to pass through with a wheelchair, with plenty of space inside for manoeuvring. Everything is on one level. If required a shower seat is provided, along with a grab handle which secures with suckers. The kitchen is fully equipped, the sitting area is comfortable and especially cosy with the log burning stove blazing away. On arrival, the property was lovely and warm from the underfloor heating, and we were greeted with a a lovely Christmas tree and some seasonal decorations. Really welcoming. This really is a lovely place. Jeff, the owner, is the friendliest and most helpful host. If you are looking for somewhere to stay, in a convenient place for visiting the East Coast, or the North Yorkshire National Park, you really should try it . You won’t be disappointed.

This was our second time of staying here and it was just as lovely as the first time we stayed. Very clean and cosy. Will definitely be booking again! Love it here, it is somewhere you can just go and relax. Whitby is only an hours drive away as well and Thirsk town centre is lovely to visit. There is a pub down the road which we haven’t been to but looks nice. Would definitely recommend here.
