Danby Cottage

Set deep in the heart of the forest, this cottage has been completely modernised. It is spacious, comfortable in all seasons (central heating and log-burning stoves), welcoming to disabled people (one of the owners uses a wheelchair), families, pets, and older people all in a way that respects the environment. We have been awarded four stars, Mobility 2 by Visit Britain, and a gold rating by Green Tourism Business Scheme. There is one bedroom downstairs with wet-room, and two upstairs with shared bathroom, and a generous living room with folding glass doors opening onto decking and a large garden. On this site you will find all of the information you will need about the accommodation, location, bookings and activities.

Originally one of a pair of forester’s cottages, set deep in the forest but only half a mile from Yorkley  village with two shops, a Health Centre and bus stop. No 2 has been in the hands of the same family since 1976.  Recently a complete rehabilitation was undertaken, including the addition of an entirely new (6m x6m) living/dining room and an accessible bedroom with en-suite. Great attention has been paid to using sustainable materials and to minimising the carbon footprint of the building and its usage. One of the owners is a wheelchair user;  the cottage is accessible to those who need help with mobility.  (The cottage complies with M2 accessibility).
