  • "The property as a whole is lovely and really enjoyed our stay."

    Our only gripe is that we found the double bed too hard and un-comfy - obviously it's our preference, perhaps get a memory foam topper to soften it a little for us sensitive souls :) The location is great, near the coast and countryside which worked well with our 10 year old and our dog. The courtyard does not have a fence, which meant we had to keep our dog on a lead in the back garden so that he didn't wonder out of the main gate and onto the road. A fence separating the carparking area and the garden area would take this property from a 4.5 start to a 5 star for me.

  • "A wonderful stay overall, very quiet and peaceful."

    Just a few observations-inaccessible socket near the mirror and nowhere to put things whilst doing my hair. A hook in the bathroom/bedroom and possibly a bath mat (we had to use one of the towels) would add to the comfort. A cheese grater was the only thing missing in the kitchen, otherwise everything had been thought of. These are minor gripes, though, we had a lovely stay and the owners are friendly and helpful. Thoroughly recommend and we hope to return.

    Finished and fitted out to a high standard, very comfortable and spotlessly clean. It is set in a quiet, peaceful location in beautiful countryside but only a short drive from amenities. The owners are friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend this property and will return in the future. Thank you Rachael and Jim for a wonderful holiday!

    The cottage was lovely, clean and comfortable with everything we needed including fresh bread, milk and Prosecco! The surrounding area was beautiful. On our first evening the owner told us they were combining the Wheat in one of their fields opposite so we went to watch and as advised had a really lovely walk through the field to the Beck. The owners were genuinely such warm, friendly and helpful people and cricket lovers as well!! We had a wonderful stay. Thank you.

Kelk Beck Cottages

Amidst the undulating countryside of East Yorkshire is a quaint working farm, home to Kelk Beck Cottages, three beautiful properties in the charming hamlet of Little Kelk benefiting from a peaceful rural location also very close to Fraisthorpe Beach. All three cottages were once former farm buildings and still retain their original features of high apex ceilings held up by rustic wooden beams as well as some original brick walls, adding a history and character to each home. Heated via Biomass powered underfloor heating throughout, as well as having solar panels to boost electricity, you will stay warm whatever the weather outside, enjoying the open-plan living spaces which have been decked out with quality furnishings and features. Plough Cottage and Kingfisher Corner both sleep two guests each, perfect for a romantic break with your other half, while The Stables sleeps four, ideal for a family or two couples, you can all come together in the shared patio garden seating to plan your activities or enjoy the individual patio areas and in the evenings return to your own space.
