The Cottage Reviews

We had a lovely stay at the cottage, although it is smaller than we usually go for it was very clean and comfortable. Every thing that you need your a brilliant holiday.

We had a relaxing stay in this cosy cottage situated on a quiet lane in the village. Made to feel welcome by owners who are on hand if anything is needed. We took our dog who loved the large garden which is where the hot tub is but a private enclosed yard with a pretty sitting area is also provided directly from the back door of the cottage. We would return as miss hot tub and comfy bed already!

Lovely property, exactly as described and the perfect hosts! Very friendly, offered some lovely day out options and were very welcoming.

The cottage itself was absolutely lovely nice and clean lovely welcome gift as ... The cottage itself was absolutely lovely nice and clean lovely welcome gift as it was Christmas, what really let it down was that you had to park on a grass verge which is not good in the winter and also for a dog friendly cottage until we got there the back garden was completely open so could not let dog off of lead which I feel should be in the cottage description this is the first dog friendly cottage we have had over the last 10 years with Sykes that you can't let your dog out on its own

Richard

Lovely cottage with everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Owners greeted us and explained everything we needed to know, most importantly how to get the log burner going and how to work the hot tub

Annette

The carpet in the lounge had lots of hair possibly dog on it and as we had a toddler with us it wasnt ideal. The hot tub appears to be 2 gardens away which is at the back of the owners home, therefore not giving you total privacy. There was no light to the hot tub in the dark and there is a small step as you walk along the path to which I stumbled off. The location is lovely and quiet and central for visiting other locations.

Lovely owners, great place

Lovely cosy cottage, hot tub was hot and roomy, comfortable beds, wood burner was perfect, could do with some trays for the oven and a chest of drawers in the bedrooms would have been better as nowhere to put anything, bedside cabinets not ample enough, other than that cannot fault the property and landlordlady, would definitely recommend.

We had a lovely stay here for a week as a family of four. The cottage was clean and comfortable, parking was easy and the location was excellent for exploring the local area. The kids enjoyed using the hot tub and the owners are friendly and on hand being just next door. Only a couple of minor improvements would make this cottage better it's own dedicated WiFi rather than sharing from next door which has patchy coverage and is quite slow, and also some extra coat hangers in the wardrobes as there is limited storage upstairs. Overall we had a very pleasant stay and would be happy to return

Lovely cottage which suited our needs. Being clean and comfortable and close to the coast supported our chilled and relaxed holiday. The hot tub was fantastic. The bee hive in the insecure garden were both issues for my young dog, but I really should have checked garden security before booking. Tim and Sam were excellent hosts, proving everything we needed whiist remaining unobtrusive. The lovely dog friendly village pub provides meals and is a short walk away. A lovely stay in a quiet and peaceful location.

We spent a lovely relaxing weekend here, the hosts were very accomodating without being intrusive and the hot tub was the biggest I've been in. Beds were comfy and location was excellent for visiting the surrounding coastal resorts. Would highly recommend and would book again in the future.

A lovely little cottage, cosy and clean. The owners have ensured everything you may need is in the cottage. The hot tub is a great size. We will definitely be returning! Great stay

Loved the property. Clean, comfortable and great location for exploring neighbouring seaside towns. Hot tub was also an added bonus. Would definitely come back to this cottage again. Can also highly recommend the local pub in Kilham village.

Everything was spotless when we arrived. The cottage had everything we needed. The hot tub was great and having a real fire was a nice bonus which made the place lovely and cosy. Our hosts were easy to contact as they are just next door when we needed a couple of small things sorting.

Lovely cottage with excellent hot tub. Pam and Tim, the hosts were friendly and helpful and made sure cottage was spotless before we arrived, even fogging the premises to prevent any covid problems.

We all enjoyed ourselves especially my mother who celebrated her 88th birthday on the day of our arrival. Thanks again.

Enjoyable stay in a cozy cottage. Owners and locals very friendly. Nice local pub. Nice area and beaches to explore.

Beautiful, well equipped and cosy cottage in an idyllic rural setting. 10 minutes walk to country pub which also served delicious food. Within easy reach of the coast and some lovely market towns. Hosts were extremely helpful yet unobtrusive. The hot tub was a lovely bonus. Overall we had an amazing week at The Cottage and hope to plan a return visit soon.

Wonderful location, wonderful hosts, fantastic cottage, plus a lovely hot tub to soak away the aches and pains acquired touring this beautiful part of the country.

Jennifer

Warm welcome. Clean, warm and comfortable cottage ideally located for visiting the east coast. Hot tub is spacious and despite Storm Dennis we managed to relax in daily after lots of walking. We left a pair of walking boots and owners contacted us to arrange collection thanks.

Isiasha

Absolutely amazing hosts, couldn't be more helpful. Wonderful people. Myself, the children and my pomeranian Bear had a great time. The cottage was cosy, clean and well equipped. The hottub was fun, well placed and a great added extra. The fire brung a real cosyness and the selection of games and dvds went down well with the children. We cooked every night and didnt fail to find anything we needed for food preparation. The kitchen had everything. We visited Scarborough, York, Filey, Bridlington and had some lovely scenic drives. 1010 Best cottage we have ever stayed in
