  We had an amazing time at Borough House. A great house in the middle of the old part of town but tucked away from the crowds and noise. We loved being able to step out to the shops and explore without having to use the car. We had great weather and most days would eat our lunches overlooking the harbour - just a stone's throw from the front door. The beds are very comfortable with excellent linen and everywhere was incredibly clean and tidy. The rooms are very large - given the position of the house. The bathroom is up some stairs - but not much more than at home. My 86 year old Mum managed ok. We are all a little fitter than we were - which is a good thing! I highly recommend Borough House. Thank you for a great stay - and the wonderful welcome basket!

  Just wonderful.

  Sunnyside was spotlessly clean. The telly was better than my elderly flat screen one ( I'm going to replace it now!). The garden was a haven of peace and tranquility. We slept well in the comfortable beds and it was lovely to hear a tawny owl at night. There are many books in the property great for reading outside on the little patio set provided. We breakfasted outside every day. Now for the best part...Loki! Loki is the owners young working cocker who fast became my little dogs best friend. Charlie has been quite bereft since his return home. We have promised him that this time next year we will return for a two week stay. Thank you Sue for providing such a comfortable and peaceful retreat to return to after a days sightseeing.

  We had an enjoyable stay.

  The property was warm and comfortable and good for 2 people (+ our small dog). There’s a pub opposite and a local store too which was handy. Parking is on the road which worked out fine for us but it was quite full occasionally. We always managed to get a spot directly outside near the bus stop, It’s a great location for visiting Robin Hoods Bay(15-20min walk) Whitby and the surrounding area. If you don’t want to drive then the bus is a good option with the bus stop virtually on the doorstep. £4 each (as of Oct 2024) gets you right into the centre of Whitby and back. It also runs past other coastal attractions both north and south.

  We spent an enjoyable week in this self-contained cottage annex.

  When we arrived we found that the owner had left a lemon drizzle cake on the table ... it lasted us most of the week, having a slice at the end of each day with a cup of tea. The owner is very nice and accommodating ... unobtrusive, but there if we wanted to ask any questions. The annex is well designed, clean, well maintained and contained everything that we needed to make our time there comfortable and homely. We went for many long walks and mountain bike rides during our stay, sometimes directly from the Annex and sometimes driving to nearby areas. We would definitely recommend this accommodation.

  Sunnyside was a lovely, comfortable property and very well equipped.

  Sue made us feel very welcome and was so helpful. She also bakes the best lemon drizzle cake! It's situated in a great area with lots to explore locally and within a short drive. We went to Castle Howard, Yorkshire lavender, Helmsley and Bolton Abbey was close by. Our dog enjoyed the local walks and the garden. There are lots of villages with lovely, dog friendly pubs. Easingwold had a lovely café called The Olive Tree. Unfortunately didn't get the chance to try the pub just down the road, but it looked very nice. Would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to explore the area.
