The Calf House, Lingdale

Very good location with beautiful coastline within very easy reach. Cottage was clean and cosy. The owners (Bill and Sandra) were friendly and welcoming. We were a bit surprised at how close the cottages were to where the owners live - (about 3 metres from the end of our cottage). There was an open field adjacent to the cottages, but not really 'open fields'. We were also a little surprised that to access the 'private patio' entailed actually leaving the property via the front door and walking around the building to the other side. All in all, a good location, clean accommodation and welcoming owners, but not great for peace and privacy.

I've stayed at The Calf House previously on a couple of occasions. It never disappoints. High quality, pet friendly, well maintained and cleaned accommodation. Friendly hosts (Bill & Sandra) who live right next door but leave you to enjoy your break unless you need anything. Fast, free, wifi internet access. TV with freeview. Kitchen with all the pots, pans crockery and cutlery you're likely to need. Comfy bed and a very good bathroom with bath and shower. All tucked away from the main road with only farm animals potentially around to cause any disturbance. (you get used to the cockerel after a day or two!). Ideally situated to get to Whitby, Scarborough or Saltburn. Great walks from the doorstep or a short drive away in the moors themselves. Local shops in the village handy, with larger supermarkets available in Skelton, Guisborough or Saltburn. The property is largely on 1 level with 3 modest steps between the entrance and bedrooms/bathrooms. and the kitchen and living area being slightly lower. Ideal even with my older clumsy labrador.

The cottage had everything we needed to be a home from home. The grounds and garden were ideal for walking our pup. The open fields to the back of the cottage gave a real countryside feeling. We would like to return later this year.

The cottage had wonderful views and excellent dog walking facilities. It was clean, warm and in a quiet location. Lingdale is central to lots of attractions. Would definitely recommend the area and the cottage.

We really enjoyed staying at the cottage, there was an excellent dog walking facility and lots of room for the children. It was only a short distance from lovely Saltburn seafront. We would definitely book again.

The accommodation had a good homely feel. We felt very comfortable. Easy access to lots of places. Facilities for the dog superb, we look forward to going again.

Excellent accommodation, especially liked the large garden area. Had access to the large mowed field behind the property for walking the dog.

The owner was on hand to introduce himself and was very pleasant and accessible for any issues. The cottage was scrupulously clean and warm. It was very dog friendly plenty of parking space and fields for dog walking. It is situated centrally for sightseeing.

A very warm and cosy cottage, in a quiet area yet very convenient for lovely beach resorts and the moors.

A very good base to explore many seaside resorts. I was made to feel very welcome by the owner. A nice relaxing place to be.

An excellent property, relaxing and quiet, well heated and very clean. We will be going again.

Beautiful cottage which was very clean and tidy, and had everything it said it had. The owner greets you on the first day and then leaves you to enjoy your holiday. Will be staying again, and I would recommend this cottage to family and friends.

Super, warm cottage in a lovely, peaceful setting, just what we wanted. The owners were helpful and friendly. We were so impressed by the efficiency of the underfloor heating we would have liked to take it home with us!

We booked a 3 night stay at short notice over Christmas 2012. We called Bill (the owner) prior to arriving and were given comprehensive directions & key collection instructions. On arrival Bill came to greet us and showed us around the property, running us through the basics of the heating controls, wifi, TV etc. A useful book of local information described the local amenities and tourist attractions. The accommodation itself is comfortable, homely and tastefully decorated. A fully functional kitchen with oven/hob, fridge, washing machine and all the basics in terms of cutlery/crockery and cookware you might need. Small dining table, sofa and arm chair. TV with freeview finishes the living room. One double bedroom with a comfy bed. One room with bunk beds. The bathroom has both a Bath and a very powerful shower above it.. While the properly does have a couple of steps down to the living room/kitchen area it was more than suitable for my wife (who has mobility problems) to get around. The location is tucked away on a quiet lane and is incredibly peaceful and picturesque. Handy for local towns including Saltburn By The Sea and Whitby it's also right on the edge of North York moors. Overall great value for money, friendly hosts and comfortable accommodation. Ideal base for exploring the area or just lounging around in the cottage itself. We'll be back.

The cottage was just what we wanted for a quiet, relaxing holiday and it was near lots of places to visit. The owner was very friendly and helpful.

Lovely barn conversion, ideally placed for touring the area. Nothing too much trouble for the owner.

Quiet and peaceful location. Great accommodation in a lovely part of the country.

Tranquil, relaxing accommodation set in stunning scenery and the description was as advertised on the internet, spot on.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily stay there again.

Lovely little cottage, converted to a high standard. Owners very friendly and happy to help. Good access to main Whitby/Guisborough road that borders the moors. Also easy to reach the coast.

Nice warm underfloor heating, quiet and good standard of decor. Nice powerful shower and always hot water on demand. Good location for exploring the coast and moors. Plenty of space to park. Friendly owners always happy to help.

We loved the place of the property as it was central for all the local places to visit. We found that we had everything we needed regarding furniture etc and found the location very quiet in the evening.
