  We had an absolute 5 * experience and loved every minute at Plum Tree Cottage and it excedeed all expectations prior to arrival.

  The photo's do not do this beautiful Cottage justice. Can't wait to return. On arrival we had a fantastic welcome pack including Coffee, Tea, sugar, yummy chocolate brownies and biscuits and a bowl of chocolates in the sitting room. There were also treats for our dog Bella, doggy towels, poo bags and fresh water awaiting our arrival for her. The cottage was spotlessly clean throughout and the shower was the best we have EVER had!! The location was perfect and our enclosed garden was beautiful and perfectly maintained and a pleasure to sit in of an evening after lots of busy day's of walking and visiting our favourite places. Just 2 minutes walk at the bottom of the garden was a stunning little train station which took us to Whitby for a few hours. My partner loved the bay window in the sitting room and spent lots of time looking at the birds and other wildlife. One highlight was watching the ducks come waddling across for food at breakfast time. I honestly can't praise Plum Tree Cottage enough. The only downside for some may be having no WiFi, but for me it was rather nice not having phone calls and messages.

  A very peaceful location and lovely views.

  The cottage is comfortable and has three different areas to spend time in - useful for rainy days. The upstairs space is a nice one to relax in and the beds are also very comfortable. The seating area at the front is lovely to sit when it's sunny, amongst the flowers, and watch the chickens wandering around. Good little walk straight from the cottage up to the views from Danby Beacon and we did other good walks in the area. Sarah, the owner, was helpful and fixed a problem very promptly. The only thing I would change about the cottage is to add is a sharp knife for the kitchen and to fix a small problem with the shower mount. The visitors book shows lots of guests coming back repeatedly and it's easy to see why. We had a lovely week at the cottage and would recommend it.

  Having just spent a lovely week at Plum Tree Cottage, we wish to congratulate alan and Karen on getting it spot on.

  Set in scenic and tranquil Castleton, Plum Tree Cottage nestles in the hillside (even sheep occasionally wander by!). Its actually a lovely 2 year old one level bungalow with all home comforts thought of. Plenty of crockery and cutlery, lovely bathroom plus torches and binoculars for bird watching at breakfast too. the sitting room is cosy in the evenings whilst the little garden catches the sun for tea and cake. Alan and Karen left us newspaper, milk, cookies and chocolate which was a nice touch. The location is ideal for visiting the many picturesque villages (once you’ve driven over the gorgeous moors) such as pickering, Helmsley, goathland. a visit to Whitby is a must too. we shall return to this wonderful home from home.

  The location of the cottage is second to none.

  This was our 5th visit to the cottage and we never tire of it. Sarah is so friendly and helpful and her knowledge of the area is extensive. It is a perfect getaway with walks on the doorstep which our 2 Labradors absolutely love . It's also a great place to sit out on the patio and relax whilst listening to the bird song on a sunny late afternoon/evening. The track is not that hard to negotiate. Sarah let us take a look in dafodil cottage which looks extremely cosy and welcoming. These cottages are a true escape from the hustle and bustle of busy life but are also close to lively Whitby and other market towns of the North Yorkshire Moors. We hope to return for our 6th visit soon!

  Just returned from another totally amazing stay at Plum Tree Cottage.

  Once again everything was perfect. Clean and cosy and the biscuits and cake were most appreciated on arrival. The last review on here was quite unnecessary. The description of Plum Tree Cottage clearly states the steps down to the cottage. These are shallow and very accessible. We are in our 50's and had no problems what so ever. Alan & Karen just leave guests to enjoy their holiday unless you need them. We had no trouble with our Internet at the cottage at all and could make and receive calls without going to the top of the hill. Can't praise this place enough!! Thank you so much for allowing us to stay at Plum Tree, we'll be back next year.
