  114 Westgate is a fantastic property the photos on Sykes really don’t do it justice.

  It is really tastefully decorated , furnished and equipped to a very high standard. Modern but also in keeping with the age of the cottage. The bathroom is brilliant and so relaxing loved the lighting around the bath. The shower was also excellent. The icing on the cake with this property was the hot tub . It was absolutely fantastic to relax in after an afternoon out walking with the dog. The whole back yard was really well thought out with benches artificial grass and colour changing lighting . Although NOT mentioned in Sykes description a parking permit is provided by the owner, it is on the sideboard in the dining room. This made parking easy most evenings we were able to park right outside. Guisborough itself is a lovely town with really friendly people. It has everything you could possibly need, Aldi,Lidl, Sainsburys , M&S and independent shops, pubs including Wetherspoons, restaurants, multiple takeaways all within easy walking distance from the cottage. We particularly liked Shurovi Indian takeaway / restaurant. Danny the owner is a really nice genuine chap and he will go all out to make your holiday at Westgate enjoyable and one to remember. I can’t recommend this cottage enough and will definitely be returning. Thank you Danny for a wonderful stay.

  We stay in holiday cottages a few times a year and this one was an absolute dream.

  There is usually a bit of an ick somewhere which you can pass off as being out in the countryside but nothing here. It was immaculate. The beds the comfiest we have slept in, the shower was great, furniture comfortable (now there are 4 comfy seats, not a 2 seater and 1 chair as shown in the listing photos), the woodland walk was great, takeaways did deliver which was sadly important (having 2 a giant 13 year old who cannot be filled). Saltburn is roughly a 5 minute drive away, Redcar and Marske are about 10 minutes away, Staithes is about 20 minutes and Whitby 40 minutes. All are great beaches for fossil hunting and the lemon tops in Redcar is worth the drive. (Lemon sorbet on top of Mr whippy in a cone). Fresh farm eggs around the corner, smallest church in England and plenty of Red Kites, kestrels, deer and a stampede of about 30 cows right outside the house on the road a few times which we found really amusing. The 4 of us and 2 pups had a great time and brilliant weather and will be back. Thanks so much.

  The cottage was very clean, warm and the bed was extraordinarily comfortable: few snags (no bread knife/grater, bathroom door doesn't close).

  It'd be nice to have local up to date area info and local produce in the welcome pack but that's a 'nice to have', rather than essential. Garden needs to be explained to dog owners (shared space with next door on the pathway, big jump up/down to garden which isn't suitable for older or arthritic dogs, small dogs can get through the gate, the front wall is low, next door dogs can put their head through the gate into Chapel Cottage garden. There was no problem between our dogs and lovely dogs at The Chapel's during our stay but it would be tricky for people with tiny, less mobile, or reactive dogs - it'd be helpful to have a bit more detail about gardens where the property is marketed as being dog friendly with an enclosed garden (or be able to chat with someone who knows the property). Location was lovely, very peaceful and nice to have walks straight out of the cottage.

  We really enjoyed our stay here. The cottage was better than expected and well maintained. All the personalised decorations demonstrated how well taken care of the cottage is. We really appreciated the bottle of wine left for us and our dog enjoyed sun bathing on the dog bed in the garden. The kitchen had everything you could need and we were left with plenty of towels and dishcloths. Redcar was a great spot for our break. The cottage was a short 5 minute walk from the beach which was beautiful but for being so close, the street was still really quiet. We also had day trips to Scarborough (1hr 15mins) and Whitby (45mins away) which the cottage was well placed for. We highly recommend this cottage and would stay again.

  Fantastic cottage with plenty equipment and goods to meet all your needs. Lots of quirky interior design features that were very interesting. Welcome pack and bottle of wine was a lovely gesture on arrival. Situated on the edge of Redcar which is sadly in need of some local regeneration ( like most towns) however beautiful beaches on your doorstep,dog friendly. Excellent for trips to Saltburn, Kettleness for fossils , Staithes and Whitby. Hartlepool royal navy museum and marina is a short drive. Nearby villages of Yarm ,Guisborough and Stokesly for markets all available. Main town of Middlesbrough just down the road for shopping. All in all a lovely cottage, close to lots of things to do at every level.
