Another vote for the lemon drizzle cake! Pity it wasn't one of the categories in the recent village Bake Off, I quite fancy one of those aprons. Maybe next year!
'We can't believe it's 12 years since we were last here! the cottage, and the setting is as lovely as ever. Loved opening the door and hearing the birds and the wind in the trees. Highly recommended a stroll through Tony Cragg sculptures at Castle howard, and the Monet in York Exhibition. We'll be back again as soon as we can - it definitely WON'T be another 12 years.
The lemon drizzle cake was divine, we wish we could have eaten more!'

This weeks guests are heading home after striking lucky with the weather after weeks of rain here in Yorkshire. The farmers are also happy as they can finally get the harvest in.
'Thank you for a wonderful week in The Old Forge. It really is a lovely cottage and had everything we needed. Very comfortable and luxurious and a great welcome pack, especially the lemon cake! The weather was kind so we explored the surrounding area in the sunshine. Thank you Caroline & Nigel for making us feel so welcome and hope to see you again soon. Amanda & family xx'

A fabulous long weekend at The Old Forge. A very comfortable home-from-home and so quiet. Listening to the birdsong in the morning was a joy. We would highly recommend a visit to RSPB Bempton Cliffs, great wheelchair access. So many photos to go through - will need another weekend just to edit them all! If you are looking for a place to eat we would recommend The Triton Inn (book a table before going) and The Coach & Horses at Rillington. Thank You. Paul, Barbara & Robert King
