  Brilliant holiday to Mill Cottage Hinderwell.

  The owner telephoned us 3 days prior to holiday to explain how to get the key and to answer any questions we may have had, this I thought was excellent as we were going to phone the day after. On arrival we were pleased with the accomodation and with a welcoming pack which included wines. The cottage was just as the pictures and write up stated on your website we were not disapointed. As this is our second time in a Sykes holiday accomodation we did not expect anything less. The cottage was clean and well laid out with all the essentials on hand very well equipped. Hinderwell is a good base for sighseeing in the area with places like Whitby, Redcar, Middlesborough. Scarborough on hand as well as the Steam Engines where we were able to view in the engine sheds and the home of Heartbeat where they carried out the filming. The Brown Cow over the road where we were able to take the dog and we ate there on several occasions as the food is good and the people very friendly, as with the butcher in the village who supplies the pub with meat which resulted in us bringing a good selection of top quality meat home. All in all we were extremely satisfied both my wife and I and her nephew as well as the dog who also enjoyed herself. Once again many thanks Pat & Dennis Casement

  For 3 adults and 2 teen boys this was a beautiful property that serves as a great base for visiting nearby coastal towns. One neighbour was very welcoming, another not so much. The local beach is not accessible. Although it’s close, the very steep stairs to it are being upgraded and are blocked off. The parking is not suitable for suv or large cars. We had to get out of the car before being parked to allow for a very tight squeeze into the space. We visited lots of nearby towns and historical sites, wonderful if you are an English Heritage member. The shower is really great, and the beds were comfy. The hob and oven were lovely to use and thank goodness for the dishwasher. It gets very breezy at the rear of the property - something to be aware of if you need/want the windows open. The fish and chip shop in Hinderwell was great. If you want to eat in the nearest pub I recommend booking. The second pub wasn’t as pleasant inside, although the barman was lovely. Overall a good base, but parking made it awkward.

  The cottage was really lovely, clean, warm and very tidy.

  The garden was a bonus with us having a dog and we could let her out without any problems. The only thing i would suggest would be to have either a freezer or a freezer compartment within the fridge as we struggled to keep what we had frozen wise frozen. The 2 pubs which we thought we were near only on served food and the other was only open 3 nights in the week which ment we had to travel further afield for meals out. All in all it was perfect place to stay, just enough room and everything to hand. I think it is relatively new to the owners so it does take time to get everything right but so far they are doing a wonderful job. We would recommend the cottage to our friends and family and Sykes have done us proud once again.

  We have stayed in quite a few Sykes cottages and this is one of the best.

  A very clean and comfortable cottage with a well equipped kitchen, sweet shower room with a lovely view and a most comfortable bed. The added bonus is the a south west facing private garden with superb wooden chairs and table. Big thank you to the owner for her thoughtful welcome gifts, particularly the delicious homemade jam! As we enjoyed mainly good sunny weather we spent quite a lot of time relaxing in the garden and it was great knowing the dog couldn't get out.. Hinderwell is a friendly village and a great base for visiting the many delightful beaches and tourist favourites near by.We enjoyed our week very much and would like to stay there again. Eleanor

  The location is great. Just be aware that only 1 parking space and stifle to get the second car parked close by we had to leave it on the road at the end. It’s a shame you cannot get down to the port now, as this was one of the reasons we booked here but the Cleveland path is great one to start walks from still. The view from the back of the house is amazing, it’s the main point of the cottage for sure. It’s worth noting that the pictures do seem to make it look bigger than it is and for a family of 4 adults and 1 teen is was just big enough as the teen and old child kept to their rooms when in .
