Thank you for your lovely review — I’m so pleased you enjoyed the cottage. It’s great to hear you found it clean, tidy and well furnished, and that the welcome pack with biscuits and milk was a nice touch. I’m glad the books and games kept both children and adults entertained, and that the roomy bedrooms, TVs in each bedroom and extras like the washing machine and dishwasher added to your comfort. I note your comment about the hill and appreciate you letting us know it took a few days to get used to; we’ve noted that feedback. I’m also pleased parking wasn’t an issue for you. Thank you for recommending the cottage — we hope to welcome you back in the future.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're delighted to hear that you found the property faultless and appreciated the welcome goodies — especially the milk in the fridge! 😊 We're sorry to hear that Whitby wasn’t quite what you expected. It’s certainly not for everyone, but we do hope the comfort of the property helped make your brief stay a pleasant one. If your travels ever bring you back this way, we’d love to welcome you again.

Great property, well equipped, proper home from home. Lots of lovely decor and loads of space to relax. Very safe and secure. Dog friendly. Chippy straight across the road. Beware the narrow streets and parking.
