"2nd stay at this cottage, in a perfect location, decorated nice throughout, bed was comfortable apart from the bottom sheet which was some flannel fabric, absolutely horrible, however did find some cotton sheets under bed so we put it on."
Also a spring summer duvet would have been better as the one on was extremely heavy. Pillows also extremely hard, my own preference maybe?
The next thing was the hairs all over the rug, and the reason why is your shark hoover was blocked, so whoever cleaned before we got in hooves up next to nothing as the brushes were jammed on your hoover, I do have pictures of the wedge of fluff I got out of it, whoever is in charge of the cleaning or bed changing needs to be more thorough.
Hopefully if we decide to come back you will have sorted these issues out, because it is a really nice cottage.
Thank you for your feedback. I will certainly look into the issues you mentioned and see what we can do to improve.

"Lovely cottage, comfortable warm and just as described."
Very welcoming. The two of us and our 2 border Collies were very comfortable here. Fantastic position close to lovely walks and the train station was also a bonus. Car parking was great and only a very short walk from the house. We enjoyed the pub who were very friendly with good food, and 10/10 for the butches offering great products. We would book again.

"Fabulous little cottage, the pictures don’t do it justice, it’s so much nicer in reality."
The room is so cosy, with a huge tv(bonus), kitchen had everything we needed, shame it didn’t have a freezer, even just a freezer box in fridge, but we did manage okay, especially when it’s right next to a fabulous little butcher’s. The bedroom was spacious, bed comfy, pillows too hard for me, perhaps give an option?. Lovely bathroom, if there’s a way to shower that would be good, like one of them hoop curtains?, we made do so not a major issue, just a little issue for people with back problems getting out of baths. The car park space was a real bonus, only a few minutes down the street as the streets filled up pretty quickly, just unload at side of butchers then park down the road, we did get neighbours looking, however lots of people doing it down this street all day. Ruswarp is a perfect location, only 30 minutes walk to Whitby via train track trail, perfect for our little cockapoo. If it’s available for our next holiday we will be back.

"The property was perfect for us, with everything we needed ( apart from a freezer section in the fridge)."
A lovely butchers within yards of the property, and a twenty five minute or so walk into the town centre beside the railway and river.Was also a perfect hub to travel to other towns and cities. We would highly recommend anyone to stay there , and would happily visit there again…. Andrew and Tricia from Swansea

"Fantastic cottage for a short break."
It was very spacious and well appointed. The butchers next door sold a lovely bacon sandwich which set us up for the day. The parking provided was a two minute walk from the cottage which was fine. We used the butchers car park to unload and load our car to save carrying everything too and from the car parking space. My only very slight suggestion would be to have a curtain round the bath so you could shower standing up. But all in all a great short break.

"Absolutely loved our stay and we have already looked to stay again but sadly its booked up on the dates we are free."
Easy to park, across from a very nice and friendly village pub. Lovely little front terrace just enough space for us to sit have breakfast and our 2 spaniels to walk around. Very comfy sofa and bed. Nice touches in the bathroom like bubble bath and muscle soak, also milk, coffee, tea and biscuits provided. Iron, ironing board, hairdryer and well equipped kitchen. The only thing missing was a proper mop, there was a bucket but no mop, there was one of those mops you attach a floor wipe too which is no good on an bumpy slate floor especially with dogs. Enough drawers and space to hang clothes.
Will stay again.

"What a lovely little cottage with lots of special features."
It even has off road parking.
The owners are very thoughtful, leaving every day items for your use eg: washing up liquid, loo rolls etc, as well as milk, tea and delicious chocolate cookies.
Dogs are made very welcome with their own blankets to use and welcome treats.
Its location is perfect for walking and trips to the coast and surrounding countryside. The Bridge Inn does excellent meals. 2 doors away is Jackson’s butcher that do breakfast rolls (egg & bacon etc), takeaway meals and a freshly cooked pork pie is a must.

"From the first minute we arrived was greeted by unfriendly niehbours who did not like the fact we was just unpacking the luggage it was exactly the same when leaving the property."
parking was a major problem as i am disabled and find it very difficult to walk any distance. the so called spar next door to the cottage was practically empty of any kind of groceries. this is not a property for disabled or elderly as the bathroom is as far away from the bedroom as you could imagine,so at night was a nightmare.

"Beautiful cottage in a quiet area just outside Whitby, easy walk to Whitby by the railway line and river or the train station is literally just down the road."
Well equiped and really cosy, clean and comfortable. Despite previous reviews the parking was'nt a problem we unloaded at the side and parked just a little down the road round a corner and did'nt move the car again. Welcome basket and treats for the dogs made it just perfect. Thank you, we will be back

"The cottage was well equipped and clean and tidy but the parking was a nightmare."
We had to park a long way from the cottage up a very steep hill. Definitely not suitable for an elderly couple.
There was no mention in the adverts from Sykes that it was not suitable for elderly or disabled.
We pleased to say we now have access to a private parking space. It is located close by, no need to park on the hill.

"Property was as described and very comfortable."
Some Prosecco and other goodies left for us which was a nice touch. Depending on when you arrive/depart you’ll either need to unload in the butchers car park or if that’s closed, in the side road but it is quite busy so you need to be quick. Once we parked up we used the train to get to Whitby or we walked in along the path that runs alongside the railway line (takes about 30 mins). Road outside it quite busy but we soon got used to it so it was no problem. I did feedback to the owners that a privacy curtain would be useful on the back door as you have to pass it to get from the bathroom to upstairs. There is a curtain on the front door. A lovely cottage in a lovely setting and a really good alternative in price to actually staying in Whitby.

"The property was lovely and just perfect for me and my husband and our two pooches."
The owners thought of everything from treats for us to treats for the dogs. They even left bubble bath which I always forget. The main bedroom was lovely and quite quirky. The baby gate was handy for keeping the dogs from going upstairs or for keeping them in the kitchen at bedtime. Good enclosed garden but not suitable if your dog is a jumper, ours safely stayed within the garden and greeted everyone who went by. We took a big waterproof blanket for the living room as a preventative measure. The rug is cream so we found it was helpful at avoiding any marks on the rug. The owner also provided dog blankies which we found were useful for keeping things protected. We would stay again. Lovely walk to Whitby and lots to do in the surrounding areas.
Thank you for the feedback. Glad that you enjoyed your stay. We hope you will come again soon.
