Welcome to the Luxury York Hen House Manor, a magnificent property located a stones’ throw from York with a real wow factor. Perfect for a hen celebration, this house offers a beautiful exterior the moment you arrive along the gravelled drive adjacent to the canal with plenty of parking space. Enter the large front doors and discover the sumptuous furnishings, and the attention to detail this property has been given. You will feel like you are staying in a home from home, whilst having the opportunity to enjoy all the luxury facilities, including the extremely comfortable bedrooms, immaculately finished bathrooms, and vast living and dining areas, fit for royalty. Treat yourself on the lead up to your big day, the Luxury York Hen House Manor will offer everything a hen party should and more.

Your luxury stay starts here, with a variety of activities to be enjoyed in all areas of this wonderful property. Book canapes and prosecco, or an afternoon tea on arrival, so hens travelling from afar can relax the moment they walk in. This is the perfect opportunity to catch up, and you can plan your night out in York while you all enjoy calming spa treatments offered by our experienced beauticians – these can take place in any area of the house. Why not arrange a three-course evening meal around the large dining table which will seat the entire group, and then sink into the hot tub on a clear night with a glass of bubbly?

The Luxury Hen House Manor is a beautiful detached house which boasts contemporary luxury throughout, and includes under-floor heating, a log burner and an open fire for the cooler months of the year. The ground floor comprises a large kitchen diner, three reception rooms, utility, boot room and wet-room. Outside there is a large patio area suitable for barbecues, extensive private grounds, and a wood fired hot-tub. This house can comfortably sleep up to thirteen guests, making it perfect for a larger group of hens. The house benefits from stunning views across the Pocklington Canal and the Lower Derwent Nature Reserve beyond. To make your stay unforgettable we offer many activities such as a clay pigeon shooting experience with tuition, including a fabulous dinner to enjoy afterwards where you can catch up on the day’s fun. Why not enjoy a cocktail class the following day in the well-equipped kitchen, followed by an hour or two in the bubbling hot tub under the stars? If you opt to go out into the local area during your stay you can either enjoy a country stroll with your girls, or travel the short distance into the historical city of York for some retail therapy, or even a night on the tiles, return transfers can be arranged for the whole group. You can relax the morning after in the large lounge with breath taking views out into the countryside and wait for our beauticians to arrive, and they can offer you an array of calming and rejuvenating spa treatments to revive your mind and body.

PLACING A NEW BOOKING WITH US DURING COVID-19

CORONAVIRUS UPDATE 18/01/21

Due to COVID-19 we have experienced an overwhelming number of cancellations in 2020 due to all the restrictions, as we proceed into 2021/22 there is every chance future cancellations may take place, therefore the risk is much higher to us as a company and indeed our guests of a cancellation taking place for bookings with more than one household. We are all hopeful restrictions will be eased by spring and with the rollout of the vaccine hope is in sight for everyone!

As much as we have been able to help hundreds of customers in 2020 with refunds and postponements, we have had an extreme amount of admin and as a small family run business this means ensuring our staff are working around the clock to offer the best customer service possible, which is great for all our customers but unfortunately we have not been able to take advantage of Furlough for many of our staff as it is important to us to make sure at all times we are looking after our guests as priority! It truly has been a challenging time!

After careful consideration in line with keeping our customer service to a high standard, we are only accepting new bookings for one household group + support bubble in 2021/22 under our normal terms and conditions & COVID-19 policy. Which means bookings made under these terms and conditions would only be entitled to a refund if the holiday let was closed by law. No refunds would be offered due to restrictions on households mixing as all bookings should be for 1 household/ support bubble only. This will result in less cancellations for us and our guests.

“Large Group Policy”

A special contract designed with large groups in mind

Bookings can be accepted for multiple households under our “Large Group Policy” for £75. This amount is non-refundable and covers the risks of cancellation involved by us in taking such a booking during the pandemic. Refunds/Postponements would be offered if your booking cannot go ahead due to restrictions by law (not guidance) on households/numbers or if the holiday let has to close by law. Refunds would only be for the accommodation and activities and would be less the booking fee paid and the Large Group Policy fee.

Our Large Group Policy is not insurance, this does not cover you if you had to cancel your booking due to contracting COVID-19 or any other illness and could not attend, it does also not cover you if you wish to cancel your booking with us and have changed your mind about wishing to stay. It does not cover you if you wish to cancel due to government guidance and not law.

We do insist that all our customers take out their own travel insurance to cover you in the event you have to cancel your booking.

EXISTING BOOKINGS

If you have a booking with us for more than 6 people / 1 household/support bubble our customer care team will be in touch with you when we know the restrictions in place nearer the time of your stay. Due to the volume of admin it is not possible for us to postpone / refund your booking until approximately 4 weeks prior to arrival

All January guests have now been contacted.

All February guests have now been contacted.

All March guests will be contacted in mid – February

It is not possible to refund or postpone your booking in advance of these dates.

Any premature cancellations will be subject to our normal terms and conditions.

All Balances do have to be paid on time to keep your booking in place, any balance not paid may result in your booking being cancelled and loss of any deposit paid. We ask that you wait for our customer care team to contact you to discuss your bookings and give you options nearer the time of your stay.

Due to the volume of admin we have to deal with imminent bookings as priority, so we kindly ask you for your patience.

If you have any questions regarding your booking please email customercare@celebrationcottages.co.uk
