What our customers say about their holidays

  The cottage was ideally situated for walking into Whitby and for driving to other local areas.

  A welcome bottle of Fizz and a packet of crisps was a nice gesture. The cottage decoration was modern, bright and clean with the bathroom facilities being very good and there was always constant hot water. It was nice to have an outdoor space as gardens are not always available in Whitby. The sitting room was comfortable with heating available if required. The view from the upper bedroom which overlooks the harbour and town was stunning. The bedrooms had nice bedding and quality towels were provided. Overall we enjoyed our stay and felt the cottage was great for 4 adults. A few points to consider :- Parking was a daily challenge as it was on a first come basis in a very busy residential area. More than one car was an extra challenge. There are steep steps into town from the cottage and also inside the cottage. The kitchen and dining area were very compact making it awkward at times to prepare and cook meals and we found the table seating was not really comfortable. Housekeeping issues:- The outside area had a BBQ which we did not use as it was filthy. I am not sure who was responsible for ensuring the BBQ was fit to use. There were a couple of broken glasses in the cupboard, the fridge door didn't close properly which resulted in excessive condensation and the extractor fan was not working. While these were not major issues it was a little disappointing.

  We stayed in Hayloft cottage the last week in June 2021!

  It was a needed girls trip to relax and do some exploring. The cottage did not disappoint! It’s a lovely cottage with beautiful views and in a peaceful location. We couldn’t have asked for anything more! We did find the cottage a little cold at times and would have loved some comfy throws for the living room. This wouldn’t stop us visiting again! We ventured out everyday then relaxed in the hot tub before going out in the evening. This cottage is in a great location for exploring, Whitby is a 20mins drive and Scarborough beach is10mins drive. We would recommend the below while staying at the Hayloft; Trip to Ravenscar to see the seals - the walk to the seals is down hill so walking back is a struggle. Definitely worth it! Falling Foss Waterfall - great adventure with a lovely tea room hidden away for a coffee and cake. The Foulsyke - we went for Sunday lunch. Great value for money and great tasting food. They serve the biggest Yorkshire puddings I have ever seen. Alberts Eatery Whitby - beautiful seafood restaurant with a great atmosphere. High recommended! The plough in Scalby - great restaurant, amazing goat cheese pie and fantastic espresso martini.

  We have just returned from a lovely relaxing long weekend in this cottage.

  It had been refurbished over summer which was lucky for us, as we should have originally been visiting in May. The brand new kitchen had absolutely everything you need. And the new bathroom is beautifully done. There were lots of little touches that made our stay easier, like tea coffee and milk in the kitchen on arrival. There were a few dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid and washing machine detergent under the sink. And a full log basket ready for the log burner. Unfortunately the weather was not on board with the great service that the cottage hosts were providing, and 60mph winds and rain for the weekend meant that we only explored a small part of the area with our kiddies. But even when we were cold and wet, there was always time for a warm in the hottub, even in gale force winds The hosts recommended a couple of local pubs for Sunday lunch, and we went to the Bryerstones on their recommendation which didn't disappoint. Pros: Great cottage, beautiful location, hot tub a bonus. WIFI Cons: None really for us We will certainly stay again... looking for next year as soon as I've finished this!

  The hayloft is a lovely place to stay and i would recommend it to anyone.

  very clean and well maintained. Ben and Wendy, the owners are on hand to answer any questions and to carry out a water change of the hot tub if needed. the countryside is beautiful and there are countryside/coastal walks from the cottage. the farm has a few pet sheep, dogs and cats. there are also deer in the field behind the hayloft that can been seen if you get up early, and there is a toad that hops along the side of the cottage every night (loved him). the hayloft is homely, quiet and it was a pleasure to stay. if you want a restful holiday, where you can drive to the coast for the kids but relax in a tub overlooking beautiful countryside in the evenings, then the hayloft is defiantly for you. in fact we loved it so much we are going back next year!

  We have just got back from an amazing stay at the Hayloft.

  The Hayloft is ‘Home from Home’ and if you decide to ‘eat in’ has all the facilities you need. It is situated in a great place, ideal for Scarborough or Whitby or anywhere on the north east coast really. We had a few hours in Ravenscar which is just up the road and were lucky enough to see the seal colony. The kids (and wife) loved the hot tub and the views from this were great The place was really warm and even warmer with the wood burning fire. We took our own board games but it even has them. Ben (owner) was brilliant too and nothing was ever too much trouble. We loved our stay here and will definitely be booking again in the not too distant future. Can’t wait to come back. Thanks again for a great cottage
