The cottage was clean, there are a lot of amenities available and the bed was very comfortable. We would love to go back.
A beautiful, warm and cosy cottage.
It was excellent quality, very comfortable.
Absolutely perfect.
We liked the situation of the cottage. The owners were very helpful and the cottage was very spacious and attractive. Not too far from Whitby and handy for touring N.York moors and Coast. All in all to be recommended. We will go again.
Fantastic property in a really great location. Had lovely owners who were really helpful, will definitely return to this gem of a place.
The cottage suited my husband's lack of mobility perfectly. No steps/stairs, a walk in shower, high bed & lounge furniture that he could get in & out of with ease. Parking was just a few paces away. The cottage has high ceilings which created light & space & was enhanced by the morning sun (when we got it). But in the evenings the cottage was lovely & cosy & warm (we were there in October). Overall an excellent property.
Great location- Whitby just a 5 minute drive, Robin Hoods Bay and Fylingthorpe a 20 minute walk away.
Easy access to Whitby and lots of restaurants. Holidaying in April with dogs is great as the beach restrictions are not in force until May and there are lots of lovely beaches to walk them. Walked for miles even though the weather was cold.
Everything was perfect!
Lovely Barn Cottage; quiet, clean and very tastefully decorated. Everything you could need for a peaceful break.
The cottage was lovely and, when our holiday was over, we didn't want to leave. It was a home away from home.
This was a beautiful cottage, warm and cosy, we had a perfect restful week there. We would love to be able to return there. Both the countryside and Whitby were lovely.
This was an excellent cottage, very clean, comfortable and beautifully furnished. The site was very quiet, and was within walking distance of the local pub (1 mile) and Robin Hoods Bay (2 miles). Thoroughly enjoyable stay.
Excellent quiet rural location for both Robin Hood's Bay and Whitby. Barn Cottage was well equipped, spacious and comfortable.
Lovely and quiet cottage which had everything we needed with very good weather. We enjoyed a lovely visit to the north Yorkshire moors railway and Scarborough museum.
This cottage is very snug and cosy, and has lovely interior beams that the pictures don't do justice to. We visited during a particularly cold spell, and the heating was excellent. Kitchen stocked with tea, coffee and sugar, which was very welcome and a nice touch.
The cottage was in a good position to access Whitby and the surrounding areas and it made a comfortable and cosy retreat to return to each day. The owner was very welcoming and advised that she was nearby if needed. All in all, we felt at home straight away and we didn't want to leave at the end of the week!
Friendly owners, peaceful location and excellent standard of accommodation.

Being out of town and able to go back to somewhere quiet - very relaxing.
Excellent access to Robin Hood Bay and Whitby, fabulous coastline. Lovely and clean, spacious, nice and warm, private parking and plenty of towels.
