  Sorry but we felt rather disappointed in this cottage.

  For the money I expected a few luxuries, like tables beside the bed to put a cup on, not a dressing table with no access under the roof beams. It would have been nice to have a mirror with a shelf for makeup that was lit enough to see and/or a dressing table. The sofa was so slippery it was barely possible to sit on. The kitchen had the basics but I felt, as in other reviews sadly, that I had to wash things before use. The cupboard cupboard for food had sticky shelves which I covered in paper towel and the frying pans had to be washed before use to get rid of the grease still on them. One of the lamps didn’t work and had a broken plug. Thankfully the bed was comfortable and the shower worked well. The bathroom was very clean. Generally though, I’m afraid, it was not à comfortable experience and we did not wish to linger longer. I was shocked to find that the cottage that I had paid a lot of money for, for 3 nights, was definitely not the end to our holiday that I was looking forward to. I paid almost half of this to two other companies and they were well appointed and pristine- a hotel and a private accommodation.

  We had a lovely week at Swang Cottage and would highly recommend this property.

  This is a delightful, cosy cottage in the middle of stunning scenery. We were met by Rosie, the owner, who was lovely and explained everything to us. Rosie was always available for any help we needed. All covid precautions are taken at this cottage. The cottage was extremely clean and hand sanitisers were provided. The cottage is beautifully decorated and very well equipped. Rosie has managed extremely well to achieve a perfect balance between retaining the period charm of the cottage and including everything required for our modern lives. The icing on the cake is the lovely hot tub which was wonderful after a day out! The views from the cottage are exceptional, especially as the sun sets in the evening. Turn left from the gate and within 200 yards you are on the Yorkshire moors. Turn right from the gate and you are a short distance from the lovely village of Glaisdale. The cottage is very well situated to visit coastal villages such as Staithes, Sandsend and also very near to Whitby. It is also well placed to visit other areas of the moors such as Hutton-le-Hole. Thank you Rosie for allowing us to stay at such a special place.

  We have done many hot tub breaks, and this was the worst of them.

  Cottage downstairs was ok, but very small and cramped upstairs, back yard was very untidy with dead leaves and pine needles everywhere, first night there after a day out cottage was very cold and had to use blankets, when i spoke to owner I had to investigate the boiler which after a promt from me it transpired that someone had turned the radiator temp down, something that should have been checked before handover to us. No welcome pack upon arrival, a first for us, a a big no no. And first time in hot tub there is nowhere to secure the lid other than lean it up against posts, which to my surprise the wind blew it down and landed on my head, as i was on my own at this point, i perish the thought of what would have happened if it had knocked me out! Instead i suffered a very sore neck and shoulders for the duration, and even now, 3 weeks after it is still sore. Glad we only booked it for a long weekend

  A very sweet and amazingly well equipped little cottage out in the middle of nowhere in N Yorkshire.

  Inside, the ground floor is perfect. Cosy main room with comfy sofas, large fire, good furniture. Rosie clearly likes hearts. We counted 41 in this room alone ! Good kitchen with everything and more one could expect. And another (dinning?) room we never used. Unfortunately the much smaller 1st floor is not so good. 2 tiny bedrooms and a tiny bathroom is silly. Enough room for 1 reasonable sized bedroom and a bathroom? We used the twin room as a dressing room. Could never recommend as a 2 couples cottage. Getting in a hot tub in a hot tub at the end of a winter's day out is of course always sublime. The garden is ideal for a dog. Would we stay again ? Inside the cottage - definitely Yes. But it was just too isolated, meaning getting in the car every day. Loads of good walks around, but none close enough to set off directly from the cottage.
