• "The cottage has everything you need it was very clean, cosy, warm and plenty of hot water."

  It’s set on a working farm but there was no disruptions. Nice field for dogs to run in all fenced off. It’s in a good place for travelling to different locations in the area and supermarkets just down the road.

  Lovely little cottage. Comfortable, everything you need for a stay. And since above photo, they have some planters with tall plants that give private little sitting area.

• "Nice cottage and good location."

  We had everything we needed. Dog friendly and peaceful. We walked into Robin Hood's Bay, hiked over North York Moors and explored the beautiful coastline then relaxed in our cosy cottage. A really great holiday!

• "Enjoyed our stay as a base for walking the Cleveland Way coast and playing some golf."

  There was plenty of room for two in the bedroom and lounge/dining area. The kitchen although well equipped is a little small for two at the same time! We were somewhat disappointed with the views from inside the property. We wrongly assumed we would have an open view. As we didn’t spend a lot of time at the property this wasn’t much of an issue.

  Ideally placed for all the great North Yorks towns and villages. Only one disappointment was the absence of the lovely seat and picnic bench that are in the photos as I was looking forward to enjoying a coffee or glass of wine on them.

  A good location for touring the area. Had everything I needed. The only downside was the door lock. It took me a while to figure out that you have to push the door against the frame. Several times I thought I was either locked in or out. Possibly a new fridge/freezer with the fridge at the top?

  Lovely warm little cottage with all the comforts you need, just what we were looking for. Although it's only a mile away from the nearest pub and shops access is via a single lane track with no lighting, so if you meet someone coming the other way you could have a bit of a problem! so we only ventured out during daylight! which suited us anyway.

  we found the cottage immaculate well equipped for our needs and comfortable .The bed was kingsize which was comfy and warm and there was plenty of room to put your clothes . As it is on a farm there are no street lights so the night light in the kitchen is a very good idea to give some light if you need the toilet at night . Abbey view will be our first choice when we go back to Whitby .

• "Overall, a small cosy cottage with a comfy bed and seating."

  Good facilities and kitchen. A quiet rural location, but not far from Sainsbury's, Whitby etc. However it did not merit the euphoric comments in the visitor's book (Best ever etc etc ) For the price, I would have given it 5/5, but a few niggles lower it somewhat. We made fair comment in the book, but left a separate note for the owners along the lines :- No one ever enquired '' Everything OK? " We arrived on a very cold afternoon. Suspect no one in previous week, as the cottage was not warm. The extra electric heater ( mentioned on line ) was not working. We used our own fan heater to warm it up. Next day, all was cosy. One bedside light was not working - too small and low anyway. Grill pan handle not complete. One pan lid and handle had loose fixing screws. Kitchen taps very stiff Hardly any washing up liquid. Not much food storage space. Why 9 wine glasses(some dirty)? Tourist info! 2012 bus timetable !!!
