Just returned from 4 wonderful nights at Toftly Retreat to celebrate our Ruby Wedding - although we really didn't want to leave! Having stayed at The Old Vicarage last year we thought we knew what to expect, but the cottage exceeded all our expectations. We were warm, comfortable, so well catered for (with one of Neville's mouth-watering cakes plus every... More

Chose this B&B after reading the glowing reviews on Trip Advisor and want to add my own. Everything about this place is wonderful, all down to the hard work and attention to detail from Barbara and Neville. It's not the cheapest B&B around, but in life you get what you pay for. We stayed in the Garden Room which was... More

I have stayed in many B&B's over the years and none have been able to match the comfort, friendliness or quality offered by Barbara and Neville at Toftly View. The beds were large and comfortable, the room was spotless and the en-suite in my room was exceptionally well appointed. I can't recommend staying here highly enough.

We had previously stayed at Toftly View and decided that we couldn't go wrong with a stay at Neville and Barbara's cottage in Pickering, Toftly Retreat. We were right. The cottage has everything you could wish for and is a luxurious home from home. The hot tub was ideal after a long day of walking and sightseeing. The location is... More

We've just returned from a 3 night break at this most wonderful Guest House. We felt as if we had been away for ages - so had obviously totally relaxed whilst we were there. And why not? Absolutely everything is done for you. Endless trays of tea with scrumptious home made cake, the fire lit on chilly afternoons, fresh milk... More

Just returned from anniversary night away in this wonderful place, which is definitely the best bed and breakfast we have ever stayed in. The house was beautiful with luxurious furniture, bedding and towels. It didn't stop there though as the attention to detail; afternoon tea with Neville's scrumptious lemon drizzle cake, homemade chocolates in you room, premium toiletries and gorgeous... More

We have just returned from our third “annual pilgrimage” to Toftly View, and we will definitely go back. Barbara and Neville are wonderful hosts, the rooms are superb, the breakfast is divine, and nothing is too much trouble for them. We always stay in the Blue Room (beautiful views over open, rolling countryside down to the Yorkshire Wolds), where you... More

We have just returned from a two night stay at 'Toftly View' and have LOVED every second of it. I can not recommend this bed & breakfast enough. Everything we experienced was out of this world, by far the quaintest, beautiful place we have ever stayed. The room, the grounds, the area was bliss. The 'room with a view' was... More

We loved our three nights in Toftly View - Neville and Barbara were delightful and considerate hosts and breakfast was excellent. The room was most attractive and bathroom was stunning! Definitely a five star experience with all the personal touches you never have in a big hotel. We would recommend this to anyone. And there is a good pub and... More
