  This is our second visit to this lovely cottage, having thoroughly enjoyed the situation and peaceful setting, well away from the road.

  It is set within extensive grounds, including a beautiful garden available for visitors and areas for families to sit in the sunshine while the children play. As per the description, this Grade II cottage IS rare and quirky, absolutely NOT modern, but totally enchanting. If you are looking for a state of the art upgraded place to stay with all mod cons... this isnt it. This is not an ultra-modern property, and that really IS part of its charm. It doesn't have a dishwasher, as noted in the cottage description - but it's easy living and very relaxing. It is absolutely a family letting, for those with children, and although it would be possible to provide for more than two adults, the single beds really are for children. The description is clear regarding the lack of WiFi - in that there isn't any, or at least barely any signal - so be prepared for a holiday without the trappings of technology [wonderful!]. It also clearly describes the bathrooms as having hand-showers [no overhead showers] over the bath and that is also true. Sloping ceilings make it difficult for tall adults to shower, so bathing would be preferable. The location makes this an ideal place for visiting other local attractions as well as being approximately 15 minutes from Bridlington by car. Nearby Rudston and its unique monolith is the next village, and Sledmere isn't far. Apparently, somehow a full complement of six 6'5" National basketball team booked to stay this year, each one arriving in their own car [it clearly states that there is room for two cars] - and of course the facilities were totally inappropriate for a letting of this kind. The property is of course clean - in the countryside there is good reason for the the odd spider - and they are also resident.

  Property in beautiful setting.

  House clean and beds comfy. However, Need heated towel rail permanently switched on in bathrooms and extra heaters in bedrooms as the fixed heaters gave off very little heat. Extra heaters provided on request. Hester in dining room failed on 2nd night but was quickly replaced when reported. Large kitchen fully equipped for home cooking but cold. Electrician attended twice to fix bathroom heater. Plumber attended once to fix plug in bath, not holding water. Lamp in lounge and tv tripped twice. Had to go to fuse box to trip switch. Use of beautiful garden, ideal for dog. Friendly host. Very apologetic for unforeseen faults. We visited last year and had no hot water for 24 hours or so. Plumber attended and resolved. Whilst we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday in a beautiful setting, really would have preferred not to have encounter the plumbing and heating problems.

  Some negatives: I was disappointed by the fact that I could not cancel once booked.

  I don't understand why there is no cooling off period. (When I re-read the small print and discovered no wifi I tried to cancel within 10 minutes. If I had it was clear I would have lost my money altogether.) The interior decor etc is a bit below the standards you would normally expect. However, the positives of the cottage hugely outweighed any negatives. We adored our holiday. The setting is idyllic. The people on site were warm and very friendly. The key to our happy holiday was to adapt ourselves to fit in with the property - not the other way round. We really had a fabulous time.

  Everything about the cottage was true.

  Stay ruined by next door long term tenants whose children kept my wife and I awake until early hours of morning by shouting and playing on games consul. The owner spoke to them this did nothing to stop the noise. A beautiful historic setting that during the day was tranquil but if you cannot sleep then your stay is ruined. The tenants will prevent another booking which is a shame as we loved the location and can only be described as a part of old England,steeped in heritage and history that was ruined by thoughtless long term tenants.

  Warm welcome .

  Quirky comfortable cottage. Beautiful view from lounge window on to large lawn and front of hall. Kids and dog loved playing with ball in the very large garden available to us. Decor etc in keeping very with the periid of property. Like walking back in time. Very spacious. Woodland walk nearby. Muddy dog enjoyed a swim in the stream, Washing mud off before entering cottage. Have booked again from next year. Lady from the Hall popped in to see if we were OK. Very kind.
