  A beautiful gem of a property right in the heart of Whitby with gorgeous views on all levels overlooking the harbour and Abbey. Close proximity to the town and amenities, but still peaceful and calm. Plenty of homely additions to settle in whilst staying, as well as secure outdoor space that also makes the most of the beautiful view. Clear instructions and guides on how to get round and make the most of Whitby and the surrounding area, and overall very clean and welcoming. Would definitely recommend and book again if coming back to the area. However, it's best to be clear that some with accessibility issues may struggle with some aspects of this property/location. The parking may be tricky, there is a long stay car park just a few short minutes walk up a steep hill/stairs that costs just under £10 for 24 hours. The house is also over three levels with very steep stairs.

  Beautiful view, cosy and clean cottage.

  Warm welcome after no answer to the door, but he is a busy farmer so was understandable. Really enjoyed the dawn chorus and peace and quiet.log burner was lovely and plenty of kindling and logs provided by owner. Comfy bed with crisp clean sheets, fabulous waterfall shower and good reliable WiFi. Nothing we did not like. If I was to nit pick them welcome milk and some basic essentials would have been nice, miles from the nearest shop and after a very long drive the ability to make a cuppa would be appreciated by people less organised than us (we had taken our own). And instructions on using the oven etc( we figured it out after some faffing as we don't cook on electric ast home. Otherwise perfect and will visit again

  A lovely cottage, spotlessly clean and a warm welcome on arrival from the owner.

  Well equipped and plenty logs and kindling supplied for the woodburner which was fabulous. The bed was super comfy with crisp white linen and very warm and snug. Even though the cottage is on a working farm it is a very peaceful and relaxing location. The pub in the village at Clifford Chambers did a great carvery Sunday lunch but we preferred The Bell Inn at Welford for a couple of evening meals out. Plenty to do round and about or further afield. Bourton on the Water a favourite for us aswell as Stratford-upon-Avon itself and all things Shakespeare. The nearby garden centre made a great place for breakfast on our last day before our journey home. Overall an excellent cottage and on our "must return" list.

  Fantastic central property with a very home from home feel about it. Very spacious compared to others we have stayed in and really appreciated the lovely garden retreat at the back. Should be a 5 star Property! Whitby has it all and is our favourite seaside destination in Britain - Great shops the pavilion for entertainment buses to other lovely destinations such as Robins Hood Bay Staithes Eden Camp the moors. Loved the steam train journey to Pickering. Fantastic pubs and restaurants and would like to recommend the Duke of York and the Fisherman's Wife in particular. Can't rate Whitby or Yorkshire highly enough. We will be back next year. Friendly helpful knowledgeable staff.

  This cottage was a fairly last minute choice, which wasn't that expensive, so I'm not sure what we were expecting.

  However, when we arrived we were very pleased, as the cottage was actually more spacious and comfortable than it ;looked online. It had great views from the kitchen window and would be a really lovely place to visit in summer. The beds were very comfortable and helped towards a good night's sleep. Also the cottage is in a very convenient position for all Warwickshire has to offer and also for the Cotswolds. Perhaps the only downside was that the boiler seems to be housed in the owner's cottage next door and could be heard in the bedroom sometimes at night (may not bother you if you're not a light sleeper) Otherwise really good and enjoyable. Would definitely book again
