Hello, I'm Joanne Wilcock and I own Westfield Farm Holidays consisting of three holiday cottages nestled at the foot of the beautiful Yorkshire Wolds.
Originally from Perthshire in Scotland, I moved to Yorkshire over 20 years ago and quickly fell in love with the area's stunning countryside, friendly communities, and rich history. Having hosted guests for the past three years, I take great pride in helping visitors discover everything this wonderful part of the country has to offer.
My aim is to provide a relaxing and memorable stay. I understand that most guests value their privacy and independence, so I like to let you enjoy your holiday at your own pace. However, I'm always happy to help with recommendations, local knowledge, or anything you may need during your stay.
When I'm not looking after the cottages, I enjoy spending time with my husband and children, exploring the countryside, and walking our much-loved Border Terrier, Tiggy.
I look forward to welcoming you and helping you enjoy a wonderful stay in Yorkshire.
