About us

The family behind Osgoodby

Osgoodby Cottage is our family home, and we look after every stay ourselves — from the first enquiry to the moment you leave.

We built Osgoodby to be the kind of place we would want to escape to: a bespoke country house with an indoor heated pool, sauna and hot tub, set amongst acres of open North Yorkshire countryside.

Because we host every stay personally, nothing is off the shelf. Tell us what you're celebrating, who's coming and what you need — cots, dogs, a longer stay — and we'll make it work. We usually reply the same day.
