Darcy's Cottages
Darcy's Cottages are set behind Holtby House, a beautiful Gentleman's Country Residence in the centre of the pretty village of Holtby on the edge of York City. Darcy's Cottage and Willoughby's Loft have one bedroom and sleep two. Dashwood has two bedrooms and sleeps four. Holtby House has a large walled garden with chickens roaming and an orchard, where occasionally there are piglets.

All the cottages have the creature comforts you would expect including Superfast broadband, LED TVs, Sky TV, DVD players, radios and dishwashers. Some have Nespresso machines. They have been described as York's finest luxury cottages.

I am not Yorkshire born or bred having moved here sixteen years ago for my two Deaf sons to attend St John's School for the Deaf. However, it is officially the longest I have ever lived in one place and I now feel very much like a Yorkshirewoman. It really is God's Own Country. So much to see and do; Coast, Moor, Dale and Wold.
Just 10 minutes from York city centre, yet miles away from the bustle. Darcy's Cottages - three beautiful, luxury cottages behind a Georgian Gentleman's Residence. Darcy's Cottage has one bedroom and a sunny aspect to the courtyard. Dashwood has two bedrooms and is accessed via an arched wooden gate in the wall of the garden.
By Car If you are driving and using satnav, the address is Holtby House, Main Street Holtby York YO19 5UD. This will take you into the village. If you are coming from the A166, Holtby House is on the right hand side, just after a bungalow set on a slight hill. If you reach the church then you have gone three houses too far.

I recommend Darcy's Cottage not only for the friendly welcome we received from Michelle but the standard of the cottage is exceptional. It is perfect, very quaint and cosy. The icing on the cake was the home made jam, lemon drizzle cake and Michelle being kind and thoughtful, a bottle of Prosecco in the fridge to help me celebrate my birthday. Can't wait for our next visit. Thank you Michelle for a memorable break.

Darcys cottage is a fabulous place to stay. Excellent attention to detail that really makes a difference - fresh scones on arrival. Very tastefully decorated and furnished. Well equipped kitchen. We've been a few times now and it is always a pleasure.

My family stayed at Dashwood Cottage within this complex in August 2019. The cottage was delightful. Very well modernised with a fab bathroom and nice open plan layout downstairs. Kitchen fully equipped. The owner, Michelle, was lovely and had even provided a welcome basket which was much appreciated! Easy access to York too. Highly recommend this accommodation.

A lovely cottage with great facilities and a friendly owner. Situated in a quiet village within a short drive of many Yorkshire 'things to do'. Our holiday there was fantastic.

I'm reluctant to say how wonderful this place is, I can't have it becoming too popular as we will definitely be returning!
Michelle is a wonderful host, Darcy's cottage really is a wonderful escape, perfect for visiting beautiful York and it's glorious countryside!
The cottage is well equipped and beautifully furnished, a lovely log burner, most comfortable of beds and the most relaxing bathroom!
Perfect! And the dog loved it too!
Thank you Michelle and family!
We will be back!
