• "Well located."

  Warm and comfortable. Well equipped kitchen, super shower. Only a few suggestions for improvement: could do with some coat pegs, rooms were a bit crowded, bed in main bedroom a bit firm for us.

  We’re so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. Thank you for your suggestion which are noted. Thank you for staying with us! Property Owner

  A good location if you want to go to Pickering and not too far from the coast. Very warm despite being an old cottage.

  The cottage was very clean and had everything you would need. The welcome pack was very appreciated too. The village itself is very welcoming and fresh eggs available from the neighbour, with several honesty boxes of different goods noted throughout the village. The swing park is great for kids.

  The cottage is fantastic, clean and comfy. Thank you for the cakes, wine, milk, chocolates plus the Easter Eggs!! We had a really nice time in the area, lots to do and see. A good day in Whitby and a day in Thirsk. Lovely Sunday lunch at The Crown in Hutton-le-Hole and good food at Cedar Barn. Both excellent if you need gluten / wheat free food. Our second visit to Chapel Cottage and have already booked again for next year. Thank you so much, Heather

  Nice quiet village but within easy reach of local attractions. Recommend use of the North York Moors Railway, buying the free returning ticket. Only very slight issues the washing machine is not a washer / dryer as stated (or not we could see). Overall a very nice restful stay, and no problems with neighbours what so ever,

• "A most delightful stay in the property."

  So clean and well cared for. The beds were extremely comfortable ,the shower was lovely and powerful. It would be really cosy in the winter with the open fire although it was not needed during our stay. Constant hot water too was a real bonus. We would be happy to stay in this home again

• "Described as having off street parking but didn't mention when booking that a neighbour owned the driveway and blocked access for the whole stay."

  He also found it amusing to wander around the back of the property almost every time we left the door open on sunny days

  Thank you for your comment. Our neighbour does own the driveway but we do have a right of way to park at the back. Sometimes if our guests park in the street where our neighbours usually parks he may park in the drive but this isn’t a regular occurrence and he will gladly move the car if asked. It is an end of terrace 17th Century cottage so if our neighbour uses his back entrance he has to walk down the drive to his gate beyond our garden but it isn’t near the back of our house.

  In easy reach of the Yorkshire coast and ideal for exploring the north York moors. Helpful and friendly hosts and a much appreciated welcome gift of wine, cake and chocolate. We could have happily stayed for a month!

• "Lovely cottage in a perfect location."

  Handy for both Pickering and Scarborough. Lovely welcome gifts for when we arrived. Plenty of parking on the road as we didn’t want to risk the narrow parking space. The steep stairs were not a problem and soon got used to them. We didn’t get round to using the open fire, the heating was plenty. Would happily stay again.

• "We had a lovely stay at Chapel cottage, the 17th century cottage has been renovated to a high standard but has kept all its character."

  It was very comfortable and homely, we didn't use the open fire but it would be lovely on a cold winters day. The kitchen is modern and has everything you would need for your stay. Ebberston has no shop, but Pickering is only a short drive away. As noted in the description the stairs to the bedrooms are steep so care is needed, and the parking space is tight, but we managed OK. The cottage is in a great position for North York moors and east coast etc. We were left a lovely welcome pack by sue, the owner, who was very welcoming and friendly. We would definitely stay again and would fully recommend.

  The Hostess is lovely and friendly. The only thing that you should be aware is the closest shop is about 10 minute drive away. But that is not a major problem All the appliances you need are on site. I would definitely be returning.

• "Lovely old cottage in one of Yorkshire's most attractive villages."

  Well appointed with some lovely touches including a welcome bottle of wine and home made buns! A great pub nearby serving good food and excellent ales. Would highly recommend. The only disadvantages are the village has no shop and the stairs in the cottage are quite steep if you have mobility problems. It is near many attractions including North Yorkshire Moors and coastal resorts Scarborough, Whitby & Filey. A car is essential although there is a bus service to Scarborough and Pickering ( Start of the fabulous North Yorkshire Moors Railway ). Nearest shops are in Thornton-le-Dale which is about 4 miles away which is another attractive village with plenty of facilities. If you are looking for a really fabulous country retreat then this is definitely for you!

• "This is a charming cottage and was greeted with a nice bottle of wine and some sweet goodies."

  We do feel that a little updating and brightening up is needed. Some of the decor is dark giving the cottage a very dark feel, maybe some local Yorkshire pictures could replace some of the very dreary ones around the cottage to help cheer it up. One of the living rooms windows leaked very badly during a downpour, resulting in quite a puddle on the floor so this needs seeing to. The beds are firm perhaps to firm for some and seating in the living room could be better, just a small 2 seat sofa and some old armchairs that have seen better days. Also there was no DVD as listed. The parking is tight but that was expected and was fine for us but didn’t realise it was a shared access, which felt a little bit invasive when trying to relax on a sunny day in the back garden. All in all not a bad little cottage but could be made better with a little thought.

  Thank you for taking the time to review of our cottage. Due to the cottage dating back to the 17th century we have put some thought into the colours we put on the walls All the feature walls are subtle heritage colours which we feel enhance the beams and panelling and the rest of the walls in the rooms are light if not white. The maximum size sofa we can get into the cottage is a 2 seater due to the door sizes and we have 2 comfy wing-backed armchairs too. We buy good quality mattresses and both are relatively new, obviously everyone can have different needs but in general guests say they are very comfortable. We had some exceptional downpours the week you stayed and we are sorting the window problem but with the property grade 2 listed this takes time. The cottage is an end terrace so there is shared access but the neighbour doesnt come onto our land or property. Most guests enjoy a typical English country cottage with character and a cosy open fire but we do realise it isn’t for everyone. We hope guests would contact us direct if they have any issues as we are always on hand to help and we enjoy welcoming visitors, a lot who return multiple times. Property Owner

• "What a fantastic cottage."

  The welcome pack we found on our arrival was really lovely. The cottage itself was impeccably clean and had everything you could need. Super cosy yet spacious and the beds were incredibly comfortable. When we stay in North Yorkshire we usually stay higher up on the Moors but we would definitely stay lower down again just to stay at Chapel Cottage. A couple of coat hooks on the back of one of the kitchen doors would be useful and I think it would be a good idea to state in the cottage description that it's a starter pack of fuel only for the fire that is included but really that's just nit picking. We had a fantastic stay and will definitely return.

  The cottage has an excellent gas central heating system, open fire is not necessaty even in the depths of January. The overall cleanliness of the property was very good. The only drawback for my wife and I was that the lighting in the living room was inadequate to read by. Hope to revisit. David & Janet.

• "We loved our stay at Chapel Cottage."

  It's a wonderful cosy cottage, nicely decorated with comfy seating, great shower & pleasant aspect in a lovely, sleepy village of stone cottages. We loved the cakes/welcome pack when we arrived, which was a surprise and a lovely touch. The cottage was immaculately clean (and I'm very particular!) Parking was on the road but it was very easy (the driveway is quite narrow). There is a very nice pub within walking distance serving food using local suppliers (Sunday lunch was great). The cottage is ideally situated for the coast and the Moors and there are so many places of interest within easy reach. It was great to spend the day out and about and then spend the evenings sitting comfortably in front of the fire. We met the owners Sue and Andrew who are lovely and were very keen to ensure that we were happy with everything. We had a great week in this gem of a cottage and look forward to returning soon. Thank you Sue & Andrew.

What a lovely touch. The cottage is very well equipped, with everything we needed and more. Steep stairs and some low doorways but all to be expected in a listed building full of character and charm.

  Easy reach of coast (Scarborough, Whitby), lovely market towns in the area, also Castle Howard and a national trust property and other places of interest. The cottage is attractive and well presented. As stated in the blurb the stairs are quite steep, but fine if taken carefully! The second bedroom has a double bed in it not two singles as mentioned in the blurb. We thoroughly enjoyed our few days in the cottage, just wished the local pub was warmer and more welcoming!

  Ideal for travelling to coast and York. Accommodation was very cosy and had almost everything you could need :). I would suggest possibly installing a small washing line for wet towels swimwear etc as there was no where to dry our stuff after the beach. The bedrooms were cosy and again had everything we needed. As our children are still fairly young sharing a double bed wasn’t an issue but may be worth noting as we were expecting 2 singles in the second bedroom!. Overall a warm and welcoming stay which we would definitely recommend!.
