Old Peak Reviews

A wonderful house in a beautiful location. Would 100 book again, and tried to, but it looks like Old Peak is no longer available to rent which is such a shame, we had a wonderful stay.....
We stayed at Old Peak last year and enjoyed it that much that we booked again for this year. Upon arrival we found the gardens very run down and overgrown with weeds. The house itself was clean and tidy. Also up for sale as is the neighbouring properties which is probably why we cant book for next year. Next doors dogs do bark a lot for no reason but you get used to it. Hot tub was lovely to relax in even though the weather was terrible. Overall we enjoyed the stay and found it very relaxing.
Old Peak Cottage was a fabulous place to stay. Very homely and modern, cleanliness was outstanding. Owners were very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend a stay here.
Philip
Fantastic base for long walks on the Cleveland way.
Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful home, we really enjoyed it and the hot tub was fantastic.
Andrea
The property is in a lovely location and is very tastefully decorated. It is well equipped and has everything you need. Some great walks from the property and was nice being help way between Whitby and Scarborough. I notice from previous comments in the guest book that there were batteries missing from the TV remote the back was missing so we bought some cellotape and popped it over but small things like this should have been addressed. It would be useful to have instructions for the heating as we were trying to turn it down but it was still showing on the thermostat at 21 degrees which was way too hot for us. Also, instructions for which day the bins needed to be put out would be helpful. We relied on watching for the neighbours to put their bins out but the recycling bin was already full when we arrived so we assume it had not been put out the week before. Again, a lovely property and we would definitely stay there again. Thank you
Stacey
This was a last minute find and what a find it was! Absolutely stunning home extremely comfortable definitely home from home decor so beautiful, so much space! Kids loved it it's definitely a golden find! The view was breathtaking, shops abouts 15 mins drive away, supermarkets, petrol stations, takeaways! Hot tub what a bonus! Nobody wanted to leave if I'm going to be picky at the cons the floor boards and the marks from tiny hands everywhere and attention to detail, light bulbs gone, back of remote snapped the heating being on timers
Been twice now and thoroughly enjoyed both times. Very relaxing. Lovely walks with dog straight from door. Spectacular views. Nice that owners have rectified bathroom fixtures from last break, they were hanging loose but all feel sturdy now and look great too. A few more cups would be nice and some cheap sparkling wine glass flutes would be a nice addition. This time used the hot tub and was a very nice experience. What a beautiful holiday let it is and at this time of year reasonably priced. Hopefully we will be back. Jill, Vicky & Milo
Andrew
Old Peak was a great home from home which provided us all of the practical features needed to enjoy life away from your day to day setup. There were a few snags that could be resolved to help improve the experience and elevate the property, but these are minor points and certainly nothing to prevent an enjoyable stay. We had the unfortunate timing of the house next door being refurbished and severe roadworks out front.but this encouraged us to get out and enjoy the Yorkshire coast in glorious sunshine, all week long. Its a fantastic location and an ideal base to explore the coast from. I would class the property and the facilities as averagetogood, they were clean, tidy and well presented.but need refining to achieve a premium experience.
Very clean and comfortable cottage. Welcome pack on arrival was a lovely gesture. The hot tub was great after days out.
Lovely house. Nicely furnished. One massive downside is floors upstairs. Unfortunately they are just too creaky! Otherwise a lovely stay.
William
We loved our stay at this holiday cottage. It was so homely, clean and well provisioned. The welcome basket was a lovely touch too. The hot tub was spacious and easy to use. Beds comfy so got a good night's sleep. Kitchen has all the basics you need, including stuff you wouldn't expect toasty maker and slow cooker!. Floor boards are hilariously creaky but doesn't impact your stay unless you are trying to play hide and seek!. Highly recommended. And in a great, quiet area too. Lovely walks from the cottage and right in the middle from Whitby and Scarborough so it's a perfect location.
We had a great time at the cottage, had all the necessities we needed, location is beautiful with just 20 mins to scarbourgh or whitby. Dog friendly and very modern cottage. Floorboards are a bit creeky when moving around upstairs but other wise a great place to stay for families wanting a quiet location.
Rachel
Great cottage can highly recommend. Location is great for travel and walks. Very clean and comfortable. Hot tub was great for chilling after a walk and was clean.
We had a lovely holiday at old peak cottage it everything we wanted and would highly recommend the view from the bedroom window is wonderful and would love to return in the future. Ian Sam Josh Megan Lando and dog Leah
Matthew
Loved staying at the property and can't really fault it. Aside from the creaky flooring which wasn't an issue for us personally, the only slight negative I can think of was the lack of a toilet brush really.
A very clean, modern and beautifully furnished holiday home. Located a short drive from Scarborough, or Whitby, you can plan plenty of fun activities to do around you. We stayed here for two nights, and honestly wished we had booked longer. The home housed two toddlers and two couples 6 of us in total and was the perfect size. The hot tub was clean, spacious and definitely a big hit amongst us all. We will be back for sure. Thank you.
A Lovely welcoming cottage. With everything you need for a relaxing stay. Cannot fault the accommodation or location. Perfect for walks with the dog. Cant wait to visit again. Looking already for 2024. Unable to write in the guest book as we didnt have a pen.
Natalie
This property is amazing. Absolutely perfect for a relaxing getaway. There are numerous walks around Ravenscar and it's a very short drive to Scarborough, Whitby and Goathland etc. After a long day walking you can relax in the hot tub. The house was very clean and has everything you need for a short stay. The only thing is you only get one dishwasher tablet, binbag and laundry detergent so I would recommend you bring some yourself. There's also a draft from the window in the master bedroom so we both went home with the sniffles but the cottage is amazing and we definitely will be staying again. There's enough room for your dog and they provide a bed, toy and some treats. The garden is enclosed and is well kept and neat. There was no room left in the recycle bin so unfortunately we had to put our recycling in the main bin but I'm sure if you brought your own binbags then the housekeeper cleaner would be able to sort. I've recommended to friends and family and they've already booked! Fantastic stay thank you
What a find! The property was extremely clean. Lots of extra touches. Surrounded by lovely walks and areas to visit.
Beautiful property. Warm and comfortable. Had the best relaxing week. Great walks from the front door. Just a few maintenance bits need seeing to with bathroom fixtures hanging loose. We were worried they would fall off with use. Very well equipped home. Had friends staying on Saturday plenty of room. Had very enjoyable evening. Owners left a very nice welcome pack of goodies. Fantastic location and views. We definitely would like to go back next year. Absolutely loved it one of best properties weve stayed at. Thank you so much.
Stacey
Excellent cottage in amazing location. Having a hot tub was great and little touches like dog bedbowls made this a great stay. Would come back. Only reason for 4 stars is the floorboards are really creaky and this might annoy some people.
We really enjoyed our stay however felt the property was lacking some essentials that could have really enhanced the quality I. E Only 1 tea towel provided Only 1 bin bag Only 1 dishwasher tablet Few toilet rolls No kitchen roll No olive oilcooking oil No foil With a remote location like this and no shop, the kitchen should really be better equipped with basic essential items. Also on arrival the thermostat was set at 12 degrees, so we arrived to a very cold property rather than a warm and inviting one that we would expect. For the money paid, I would expect the above aspects to be met.
Elaine
The property is very clean and well equipped in a beautiful location. Lots to see and do. The only reason I didnt give 5 stars is the floor boards upstairs are really creaky and the property needs somewhere to dry wet towels and clothes. A clothes airer or towel rail. This would not stop us stopping there again as it's a beautifully decorated, well equipped property.
Phillip
Fantastic base for long walks on the Cleveland way.
Nicola
Lovely cottage, well presented with everything you need away from home. Great location with plenty of places to visit nearby. Nice added touches with the welcome pack and goody bag for the dog. Hot tub was amazing after a long day out walking. Only thing I would recommend is a long handled sweeping brush for the laminate flooring downstairs. The floor boards upstairs also creak a lot! Didnt spoil our stay though and wed love to return.
Amanda
Great property & incredible location. The cottage was so clean, nicely decorated & lots of nice appliances to make family life easier. The location is amazing beautiful views & walks in the area & close to many attractions. The hot tub was fabulous made the holiday that much more relaxing. The only thing that was missing was a bottle opener, apart from that it was the perfect holiday & loved the considerations for our dog providing a bed, bowls & treats.
Trevor
Fantastic house, everything you need was supplied and more. a welcome pack and even a doggy welcome pack, would recommend this property to everybody. Also thanks to Jonny for his help. really great holiday, thanks again. Trevor
Peaceful! Wonderful! Ive never felt so relaxed. !!! Ravenscar is an area Ive not visited in the 20 years Ive been holidaying in Yorkshire such a wonderful area beautiful scenery I will certainly come back and recommend a weeks stay!! So much to do and such wonderful walks.
We had a wonderful stay at Old Peak, the property is immaculate and the views across Robin Hoods bay are stunning. The property catches the sun all day long and the hot tub is a nice treat after walking along the Cleveland Way. Short drive to WhitbyScarborough and plenty of country pubs along the way.
Michelle
A really lovely cottage with everything you need for a home from home holiday. Spotlessly clean with really comfortable beds. The view was beautiful and lovely but hilly walks in a gorgeous part of the country.
Top notch property with everything you will need , very clean and comfortable , the hot tub was brilliant after doing a lot of walking most days , would recommend and what a lovely sea view .
Russell
Amazing place in a lovely quiet location. Decor is superb and we would definitely recommend this property to others.
Stacey
Wow Old Peak is beautiful! Not only are the views amazing but the house itself is so looked after. Would highly recommend anyone to book this, we stayed here for bank holiday weekend, 4 adults, 2 children and it was perfect! We are already looking to book again
From stepping inside this beautiful holiday home we were wowed. It has been renovated to a high standard & very thoughtfully done. I go away often & have stayed in some beautiful cottagesholiday homes & this one is at the top of the list. I will definitely be re booking. I brought my parents & it's their first holiday in about 40 years,they had an amazing time here at Old Peak. The added bonus was the amazing views too.
