"The Hayloft was just perfect, spacious for the 6 of us."
Kitchen was well equipped and great to have a washing machine and dishwasher. The hot tub was such a great addition for the evenings to chill together and chat. Nice to have the garden to play as well. Location great for exploring the North Yorkshire Coast, a car is needed as the location is rural but lovely as so peaceful.My only suggestion would be to have another toilet, there were many occasions where the children were crossed legged!! A great holiday, would definitely recommend.

"Amazing property, stunning views."
Central location for places of interest and some lovely pubs for food. Didn’t want to come home!
Only comment which may be a little petty, one of the kids dropped a piece of jewellery on the settee. Whilst rummaging between and behind cushions to retrieve was a little disappointed to come across a very large accumulation of crumbs and other bits, never a good feeling plunging hands into the unknown, this was a little shocking. One good swipe of a hoover nozzle would clear this.
Hi.

Comfortable beds, nicely furnished and the log burner added extra charm on an evening. The kitchen had everything you need, plenty of cutlery and crockery but if you are planning on making a casserole etc, take your own larger pans. The hot tub was a good size and serviced daily.

"Had an amazing time at Hayloft."
It's a fantastic cottage in a great location, perfect for walking along the coast to Robin Hood's Bay, and very short drive to Whitby and Scarborough.
The cottage itself is perfect, with a fantastic hot tub to unwind after a day's walking.
We (group of 6) had a brilliant time.
Fully stocked kitchen, and wonderful dining table meant we could cook full meals and enjoy them together in the evening.
Lovely large living room with log burner (we didn't need to use), and plenty of comfy seating for us all.
Three immaculate bedrooms, comfy beds, provided a good night's sleep.
Can't speak highly enough and will definitely return again (for a third time).

Lovely location on a farm which was nice to see the horses each day. Fantastic views from the garden, kitchen and hot tub across the fields. So quiet and relaxing too. Plenty of parking, nice walks starting at the bottom of the garden which was a bonus. Good quality facilities. Some people may want a 2nd bathroom as barn sleeps 6 as there's plenty of space for one, but it was fine for us. All in all we would definitely recommend Hayloft.

"Hayloft is in a beautiful setting and so close to many places and has a huge garden."
The house was clean and well looked after and having the hot tub was great. There is only one bathroom in the property, which for the 4 of us it was fine but as it sleeps 6 this might not be so good. I advised to Ben the owner that the bathroom needs some shelf space as there was only the sink to pop toothbrushes on and it was a squeeze and also pop something in the shower to hold shampoo ect, he did welcome the feedback. Hubby loved the bed, but for me it was too firm but thats something that cant suit everyone. All in all a lovely barn, in a lovely setting and we would return. Thanks Ben & Wendy it was lovely to meet you.
Hi Denise thank-you for your feedback I have now fitted shelves in the bathroom as you suggested we always welcome feedback and try to improve all the time many thanks for your custom and hope too see you again

Barn is better than the photos show. It is very homely and cosy and we didn’t want to go home. Hot tub is fab with beautiful views but definitely could be enhanced with a roof of sorts to protect from the wind/rain. Log burner was wonderful, bedrooms comfortable, lovely farmhouse style kitchen (could do with extra serving dishes, pizza cutter/full cheese grater and other utensils you may use for making quick food whilst away). We went to the ‘Hayburn Wyke Inn’ for food which was very cosy on a wintery day. Scarborough was a seaside treat. Would definitely return without a second thought. Go on and book!

There’s plenty of animals and a big garden. There’s an open fire which at first I was worried about with my little girl being so into everything but the living room is huge and spacious enough that there’s no reason to be near the fire.

"This property could be fantastic."
The views are spectacular in an amazing location. Its potential could be made better by the following;
Get a new TV and upgrade your Sky box.
Why are all the plates chipped in the kitchen? This is a health hazard and chipped plates should be thrown away. The frying pan was shocking and had to be thrown.
The patio doors in the living room did not lock and the whole thing was loose. When the wind blew it was a little noisy for the two sleeping above the lounge.
Having a holiday home is an investment and I would recommend that you put some investment back into it.
Otherwise we had a great stay.
David
thankyou for your feedback .
the sky box is just to receive the free digital channels upgrading this would not benefit either party .
any chipped plates are usually thrown away these were probably just missed on the actual day you arrived but any others will be replaced .
the frying pan was replaced immediately for you .
i have looked at the patio doors they lock fine with no issues maybe you didnt lift the handles to lock them ? and they do not seem loose at all .
the bedroom as all the bedrooms are upstairs so you do get some wind noise ?.
we always try to keep all our cottages to a great standard and re invest continually .
thankyou for your feedback and we are glad you enjoyed your stay with us

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.

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!

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 kitchen is well equipped and we ate in for the two evenings we stayed, there is no bbq however the owners were happy with us bringing a disposable bbq. The only small issue was that the blinds did not block out the summer evening light entirely and this meant that sleep was affected, however as I said, this is a small issue in an otherwise lovely venue!
