New Year stay
We had a wonderful time staying here with friends over new year. The upstairs living space was fantastic for the two families of four to hang out in (children aged 12, 13 and 14). The views are wonderful and we managed a great walk. The kitchen was well equipped and the owners were really helpful when we needed to get in touch. Would highly recommend staying here as a group.

Amazing Property
We absolutely loved our stay here! We loved that it was out in the country and we had beautiful views to wake up to each morning. We were completely charmed by the home and the property. There is nothing to compare this home to back where we come from, and we felt lucky to have had the experience. Thank you so much!

Great 3 days
The photos of this property do not do it justice. It’s so much nicer than it looks in the photos. So much space for a large family to spread out and the views are spectacular. If you’ve got children with you a visit to Forbidden Corner is a must.

Stunning location
The property was spacious and set in a stunning, quiet location. The view from the patio was breathtaking. It was very well equipped with everything you may need and more. The pool table was a bonus. We visited Bolton Castle and Forbidden Corner. Both were great family fun days out. We even travelled on the North Yorkshire Moors steam Railway and visited Aysgarth Falls. The owner was very helpful and answered our queries promptly. They kindly left chocolate and wine for us to celebrate my husband’s 70th. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning.

Fantastic
Beautiful property, perfect for a family get together. Shame not to be able to enjoy the outdoor space so much in January but it would be lovely in the summer. Lots of space for big groups to spread out, lovely bedrooms and enjoyed both log fires. Really clean and prompt response to a couple of questions. WiFi also great, which is brilliant for those working from home. Thanks for a great stay!

Mile House East
Great house with good facilities. Lovely location near a nice community pub. 5 miles or so from a good coop supermarket. Great walking and sightseeing country. It is dog friendly, but not upstairs, and the second lounge is upstairs. Understandable, but its not explained on the listing. We had a great stay.

About the host

Host profile image
Mile House East is a cottage that has been in our family for nearly 50 years. It is a home from home to my brother and I and our families. The children adore it..

Why they chose this property

Mile House East is a cottage that has been in our family for nearly 50 years and is currently owned by brothers Peter and Andy McKinlay. We have been able to refurbish and upgrade the property but retain the original features in this lovely old house. Last year we were able to extend the first floor into the old barn and create a large second living space as well as a fifth bedroom and second bathroom. Our families regularly use the cottage ourselves and we now have plenty of space. With three growing children in each family every corner of the dales becomes our adventure playground.

What makes this property unique

Wonderful countryside at your front door. Close to both Leyburn - a thriving market town where you can pick up anything you need for your stay. Community owned pub - The Foresters Arms - witin walking distance. Forbidden Corner - voted Best Family Day out 2012 - a few miles away.
