Beautiful tranquil location with stunning views and the garden was simply gorgeous. The kitchen was well equipped and all rooms were spacious but cosy and there were plenty of board games etc for entertainment. The beds were comfy as was the living room and we’d hoped it might be cool enough to put the log burner on but we were graced with warm weather. Owners next door were very friendly and welcoming. Being picky, I’d say both en-suite showers weren’t great, the downstairs one a bit lightweight and upstairs very small, however there was a perfectly good one in the main bathroom. It is quite remote, so car definitely needed as the village shop isn’t always open so make sure you arrive with provisions. Again, being picky, there was no milk in the fridge upon arrival for that well needed cuppa which we have had in most other houses we’ve stayed in but thankfully we had purchased some on our way. A lovely cake was provided however which we very much enjoyed. There are some nice pubs in the area, The Wheatsheaf in Egton being our favourite for dinner. The house is close to Whitby, Goathland and the Moors for some stunning journeys and highly recommend Sandend beach, Runswick Bay, as well as Robin Hoods Bay all within a 30 minute drive. Would definitely stay again. It was so peaceful.

Cottage was lovely, especially the garden, which we all enjoyed. Cottage well equipped, but cooking and serving a meal involved steps when carrying food, and with two rather older people, and one tall whose head hit the lintel, this needed careful negotiation, particularly as the steps had no hand rail. There were delightful walks from the doorstep, all easily negotiated and enjoyed by people and dogs; a meal at The Board in Lealham also enjoyed by us all. Post Office and village shop in Lealham useful and helpful. Trips out to Staithes, Whitby (very crowded), Danby Lodge National Park centre (excellent information, art gallery, cafe, children's area), and coastal walks all much enjoyed.
