Delighted to note that the cottage has had 13 returning customers booked in for 2024 plus 2 recommendations from regular guests, also 4 returning customers for 2025 - many thanks to everyone.
Not all guests leave reviews, especially if they are repeat customers. VRBO only publishes reviews from bookings taken on their site so reviews from other cottage sites are not displayed. Entries from my visitors' book can be viewed in the cottage photo gallery.
Please contact me if unsure of dates/prices. The total price for short breaks does not always display correctly. It will only allow a nightly/weekly price which does not always apply! The VRBO system will not allow hosts to display discounts so please contact me on the portal to request. The total price displayed now includes the taxes/fees to VRBO so our prices can look inflated.

About the host
Hosted by Mrs Vivienne Mills
Having run my holiday cottage successfully now for 38 years, I have gained many new friends through returning visitors to the cottage.
I am now semi-retired and enjoy living in Stainforth.

Why they chose this property
I moved to Stainforth in the Yorkshire Dales 40 years ago and loved the area so much I decided to buy a cottage in the village and offer it as a holiday cottage to holidaymakers so they could appreciate the wonderful scenery and numerous walks in the surrounding countryside.
Stainforth is easily accessible and far enough away from the hustle and bustle of a busy town. It also provides a perfect base for touring the Yorkshire Dales and visiting the Lake District.

What makes this property unique
2 Hollies Cottages is completely pet friendly to enable visitors to take advantage of all the lovely local walks with their pets. There is no extra charge for pets, all I ask is that pet owners are responsible for their pets' behaviour whilst on holiday!
Stainforth has all amenities within 3 miles.
