Well equipped little cottage
Perfect location for us, the cottage is very well equipped with lots of games and dvds. The garden is enclosed so we weren’t worried about the dog getting out.

Lovely place.
Second visit with my family. The barn is in a quiet location, but only a short walk to the beach. Whitby is only a 15 minute drive. The barn is lovely and plenty of room for a family (4 in ours). The beds are come with fresh bedding.

Idyllic
Beautiful cottage with all essential amenities. Placed in a quiet, exquisite area just outside Newholm. Lovely garden and we were blessed with outstanding weather! Good selection of DVDs, boardgames and beach toys. Owners live next door, not remotely over-bearing, but always happy to help. Nice walk into Whitby and Sandsend. If you can't face the hills on the way home, taxis were all dog friendly we found. Would definitely return again.

Lovely cottage in great location
We had a lovely time in the very clean and well equipped cottage. The setting and garden were lovely, only a mile or so down to the beach at sandsend which was dog friendly even in July. Very convenient for getting into whitby too, Lidl only 5 minutes away by car. Loads to see and do and easy to access coast road to visit other places nearby. Cottage was well equipped for visiting with small children with stair gates, a cot and a high chair. Only downside was very see through blinds on the velux windows in the two upstairs bedrooms, we rigged up some towels to make the rooms darker but there was still quite a lot of light coming through so would bring travel blinds if we came again.

Lovely quiet location.
The barn is in a quiet rural location, but within 20 minutes drive to whitby and robin hoods bay. The barn is clean, tidy, and has comfortable beds. Lots of board games, books, and DVD's to keep you entertained after a busy day on the beach or walking. Pauline and Bob the owners are friendly and helpful wirh any questions you might have about the area. They have alpaca's near to the barn and took the children and us to feed thrm carrots. There was also a pint of milk and eggs waiting for us on our arrival.

Lovely Hidden Gem
Just spent 2 nights af the cottage, with our 2 dogs. Our friends joined us for the second night. It was perfect, so peacefull and comfortable. Had everything you could possibly need in a house, and was made even better by being super dog friendly. Lovely walks on your doorstep, and only a short walk to the beach. Will definitely be back
