• "We had a wonderful stay at the cottage and would definitely return."

  It's spacious, clean, and the views are spectacular. The owner couldn't have been more helpful and left a generous welcome hamper. Some minor points to help make stays even better. We'd highly recommend the owner looks into a new bed (probably a divan) for the master bedroom as it was quite uncomfortable and made a terrible noise at the slightest movement. We'd also recommend adding instructions to the house book re what to do if pressure drops on boiler as it's likely a common issue. It might also be worth updating the directions to the property by referencing the turning to Mickelby (if that's the correct place) as we struggled to locate the property with the current directions.

• "This cottage is in a wonderful, peaceful position, overlooking a quiet and scenic rural landscape."

  The cottage was spacious, warm, and homely, and our hosts were welcoming and friendly. We were met with gifts of home made bread (still warm), jam, butter, fresh milk, orange juice, and white wine, which were all greatly appreciated and devoured. A gem of a cottage and excellent hosts.

• "Had a lovely stay at Longstone, host is lovely and super friendly, location is ideal for exploring the moors and the coast."

  Think the Cottage would benefit from a boot/coat area and a bigger shower to fill the huge bathroom. Overall a really great stay, thankyou.

  We made friends with the horses and so did the dogs, the lounge area is quite large and the beds are comfortable.all the facilities you could ask for in the kitchen are there and what a view from the windows. The whole holiday was magical and made by the cottage, sad to leave, but we shall return. Thank you Andrea, we’ll done Jo and Bob September 2023

  Thank you so much for your kind words, it’s alway good to make friends and have a good natter. Look forward to seeing you again in September. Property Owner

• "Just a couple of items 1 could do with a support handle in the bath area 2 ..."

  Just a couple of items 1 could do with a support handle in the bath area 2 the front step could be altered so irs not too much of a drop but overall we had a very enjoyable stay and Andrea was very pleasant and so were the horses and dogs

  After your suggestion of support handles I ordered some straight away, thank you for that. The hand rail is there for extra support but I worry that if the steps were altered they’d become too shallow and that could be a concern too. Feedback is always gratefully taken and I thank you for that. It was lovely to meet you all too and you loved the horses and dogs as they did you and you enjoyed your stay with us. Thanks once again.

• "Andrea is a fantastic host, and she made sure she checked in with us at convenient times and made sure we felt welcome."

  The cottage was lovely and so are the surroundings, with deer and barn owls to be seen as it is so quiet up there. Runswick Bay and kettleness beach are quiet but beautiful. Whitby Town isn't far away and the best place to park was the co-op car park. We will certainly be looking to return as soon as we can!

• "Andrea met us when we arrived and was very pleasant."

  We saw her from a distance on a couple of occasions, but didn't get to speak to her again. The cottage is in a lovely spot, very quiet and peaceful and we very much enjoyed our stay there. I would just say that some of the furnishings are looking a little tired, especially the large sofa, and we found the double bed a bit lumpy, nothing that a new mattress wouldn't solve. I don't know if Andrea knows, but one half of the four slice toaster is not working, which may make breakfast a little lengthy with a family of four. Other than that, if we decide to go back, we would choose to sleep in the two single beds, as we are used to a six foot bed and found the four foot six bed a bit tight.

• "Cottage could have been cleaner !"

  Cobwebs throughout and very dusty. Obviously not the owners priority to clean ! Woken early by dog barking outside door most mornings. Bbq rusty and so obviously not fit for purpose sitting area outside was a wooden bench that was rotting and plastic chairs. I accept it is on a farm but feel more effort could have been taken for the price paid. Certainly not value for money. No starter pack of fuel for log burner. Just a log !! Log burner had not even been cleaned out from last use !Feel very disappointed in the description given for the property feel it was not accurate. The best thing I could say about the cottage was it’s Peaceful location . Would definite not recommend

• "The location and spaciousness of the property were both great and it was a perfect environment (outside and in) for a dog."

  Comfortable beds/big bathroom - slept really well! Very friendly relaxed atmosphere/owners. It would be helpful to mention in your description that there are two quite deep stone steps up to the front door and one small step inside the cottage between the bedrooms/bathroom and the living area. I took my elderly mother with me as the cottage is described as 'all ground floor' and she did manage with assistance but it wouldn't be suitable for someone who relied totally on a wheelchair.
