A lovely little cottage for 2,lovely peaceful location which we wanted,but a 5 min bus or car ride into Hornsea The bed was comfy with excellent linen,the kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed.We loved the log burner,however a little more wood could be provided. The log tub was excellent, specially with a full moon outside.My only little criticism is it could have a better sign post ,as we thought it was a farmers field,overall an excellent stay,would return and recommend.

This is a really good place to stay. It’s in a quiet little hamlet, but has excellent public transport links to Hull, Hornsea and Beverley. The place itself is cosy with a log burner, well equipped kitchen, comfy bed and hot tub which overlooks a massive field. It is only 5 minutes from Hornsea which has lots of pubs, restaurants and takeaways and a Tesco superstore. I would highly recommend staying here

A fine cottage in a great location for exploring this part of the world. Our highlights were walking to the Spurn Lighthouse, Bempton Cliffs, the Hornsea Museum and the many long walks along the beaches. Would definitely recommend the cottage.
