Nice place, convenient spot, everything worked fine, no complaints.

Great location, house was functional and equipment did the job.

We had a lovely stay at this cozy cottage. The kitchen may be a bit compact, but its really well stocked with everything we needed. The furnishings are a little worn, but super clean and tidy, which is what matters most. The bathroom looks fairly new, with a nice shower over the bath. The downstairs loo is small, so might not suit everyone, especially those with mobility issues. Heating and cold water were straightforward to operate and the induction hob came with clear instructions. All in all, a great little place!

Lovely cottage. The kitchen is small but well equipped. The furnishings are used but clean and tidy. The bathroom has a shower over the bath and appears to be newly installed. The downstairs loo is small and might be an issue for people with mobility problems. The heating and cold water was simple to use. The hob is induction but there are clear instructions given in a manual located inside the cottage. There is also a number on your site map for additional help.

Overall, we had a decent stay. The cottage was comfy and the beds were really nice, though a bit noisy sometimes. The main issue was the seating downstairs - only enough for four people, even though five of us stayed. Also, there werent enough sockets in the rooms, with just one per bedroom and nowhere near the seating areas. Still, it wasnt too bad!
Georgina

The property we stayed in was okay, but the seating arrangements downstairs didnt match the sleeping capacity - 5 of us comfortably slept in the cottage but on an evening, the sofas only comfortably sat 4. Distinct lack of sockets in all the rooms, too - only 1 per bedroom and none near the table or seating areas. Single beds a little noisy, but very comfortable.

We recently stayed in Cottage 37 and overall, it was a pretty decent experience. The place was spotlessly clean and obviously well cared for, which we appreciated. The only minor issue on the cleanliness side was the shower curtain in the upstairs bathroom - it could definitely do with being replaced and the sealant around the bath is starting to look a bit mouldy, so that might need some attention soon. It made us smile to see all the sheets marked with the cottage number in permanent marker - quirky little detail! The fitted sheet in the master bedroom was a bit small for the mattress, constantly pinging off the corners, so maybe a bigger one would help. We also found the hanging space a little limited; a few extra coat hangers would have been useful, especially since there was still plenty of room in the wardrobe. An ironing board would be a handy addition too, especially for longer stays. Inside the kitchen, there's a folder with instructions for the appliances. Some of them, particularly the induction hob, could do with clearer guidance - once you get the hang of them, theyre quite straightforward. Also, itd be helpful to know when the hot water booster kicks in in the mornings. Initially, the WiFi was a nightmare - wouldnt load anything - but after restarting the router, it surprisingly worked much better than expected, letting us browse social media and surf the web without issue. All in all, a nice place with just a few tweaks that could make it even better!

Really enjoyed our stay here. The cottages layout and views were lovely and its well equipped and cosy. Only downside was the parking bays - wish they were a bit larger!

We stayed at this cosy little cottage in a quiet holiday village and loved the stunning views. Its perfect for a relaxing break, though do remember to stock up beforehand since theres no shop on-site. The hilly terrain might be tricky for some, but overall, a lovely spot!

We had a lovely, chilled weekend by the river with the dogs. Whitbys cafes and bars are great!
Emily Clarke, Wakefield
Date of stay: 7th March 2020
We had a really nice stay at this cosy cottage. Its situated in a lovely spot, perfect for exploring. The place was spotless and had all the essentials. The only thing we found a bit odd was there's no reception, just a maintenance guy around during the day, so check-in felt a little awkward. Still, wed definitely come back. The locations close enough to town, though walking isnt easy because of the busy roads and no footpaths. Plenty of parking, which is a bonus!

Emma, Grimsby
Date of stay: 9th December 2019
We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin. Its small but cleverly designed, perfect for a quick weekend getaway. The bed was super comfy and it stayed warm even in December, plus the views were lovely. The showers okay for quick rinses, but not ideal for long hair washing. We did find it odd that basics like tea, coffee, sugar and washing up liquid werent included, despite the description saying to bring your own towels. Still, wed definitely come back!
