Guests say

Cartwheel Cottage receives high praise for its cosy and clean accommodation, set in a peaceful and beautiful location ideal for exploring the countryside. Guests appreciate the warm welcome from the hosts and the thoughtful touches, including a homemade cake and wine. While one review mentions barking dogs at night, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many guests eager to return.

The cottage is consistently described as immaculately clean, with multiple reviews highlighting its spotless condition. This suggests a very high standard of cleanliness maintained by the hosts.

The location is frequently praised for its tranquillity and proximity to local attractions, making it an ideal base for exploring the North York Moors and surrounding areas. One review mentions barking dogs, but this does not seem to detract significantly from the overall positive perception of the location.

Guests find the cottage comfortable, with special mentions of a cosy atmosphere and a comfortable bed ensuring a good night's sleep. The property seems to cater well to guests' comfort needs.

The cottage is well-equipped with high-quality facilities, though one review notes the absence of Wi-Fi within the property. However, the addition of a microwave upon request and the presence of other amenities contribute to a positive rating.

The hosts are commended for their thoughtfulness, with several guests mentioning the welcome gifts of wine and cake. While these gifts are warmly received, it is important to note that such personal touches, though likely, are not guaranteed for every stay.

    Perfect hosts in John and Marian who helped make our stay so enjoyable. If you enjoy wildlife and wonderful countryside this is the place for you.

  • Susan

    The cottage was spotlessly clean, couldn’t fault it. Very importantly the bed was very comfortable. Situated to many tourist attractions. We had a really lovely stay. Would stay again when visiting the area.
