  We have just returned home from a weeks stay at Cartwheel Cottage, Broadings Farm in Whitby.

  What a wonderful stay we had. The site is beautiful, extremely clean, and surprisingly quiet for the amount of guests staying. Our cottage was absolutely amazing. Beautifully clean, with everything we needed. Fully equipped kitchen, dishwasher, large fridge freezer and washing machine. The two bedrooms were both en-suite bathrooms. Full fee standing shower and huge bathtub! Shower was fabulous, and never short of hot water! Bedding and towels were provided and were crisp, clean and fresh. There was a very good size patio to the outside, which we spent many a night playing games and watching the sun set. The views are wonderful! The lady (apologies I didn’t get your name) who looked after the property, was absolutely lovely, nothing was too much trouble! We love Whitby and the surrounding areas, and Broadings Farm is an ideal location. Park and ride into Whitby is literally at the top of the road, less than 5 minutes drive away, and is so efficient and cost effective! Highly recommended. Dog friendly, we had two dogs with us, and there was two lovely large fields which weren’t occupied by caravans etc where we could take them for their final nightly walks. Whilst Broadings Farm is situated on a busy road, and the cottage we stayed in was right on the main road, the traffic didn’t bother us at all. We are booking again for next year, we have found our forever home from home at Broadings Farm! Absolutely superb! Thank you for making our holiday wonderful xx

  Abbey View has obviously been done to a very high standard and we found it very comfortable and really enjoyed our stay.

  However, a few minor details let it down slightly. The welcome pack was akin to a budget hotel with cheap coffee and UHT milk- this little detail on arrival can make all the difference, although the biscuits were really good. It’s not clear in the information that the house is situated next to a very busy and noisy road with a constant stream of traffic at all times of day and night. Although we did get used to it, it was wasn’t as peaceful as we would’ve liked. Situated on the outskirts of Whitby, it was a fair walk into the centre, but the park and ride was a few minutes walk at the top of the road, much handier than taking the car in. A local hotel was situated there too, which was excellent for food and drinks and a great place to sit out on sunny night. The house had great selection of kitchen equipment etc, but sadly lacking in enough dinnerware and glasses, ( no beer glasses) so meant constantly washing dishes as there wasn’t enough without putting the dishwasher all the time. More concerning was the washing machine. I mistakenly put it on early one morning, but had to stop if half way through as it tried to make a bid for freedom, jumping about during the spin cycle. I shudder to think what would’ve happened if we had put it on before going out!! All in all, a lovely holiday home. These issues are not complaints but for the cost of a week staying here, you expect certain standards. A few tweaks would make all the difference.

  The property was beautiful and in a great location, with a lovely view.

  just 5 minutes away from Whitby and 10 Minutes away from goathland. The kitchen was really well equipped and the beds/sofa really comfy. All new furniture and you could see a lot of detail has been put into this property. The waterfall shower was great. I would definitely stay here again. The garden was great however as a small dog owner I feel the gate could have been more secure as there are large gaps in between the wood which my dogs could escape from, nothing a bit of chicken wire wouldn’t fix to put me at ease. The toilet seat was loose in one of the rooms and the flusher didn’t work too well, and the shower seal is lose when she shower door is closed, just a note to look at getting fixed but this didn’t in anyway impact our lovely stay. Could do with leaving a bit more toilet roll and a kitchen worktop spray. Thank you for a lovely stay, the biscuits we got on arrival were a lovely touch and very tasty.

  The listing describes the cottage as “idyllic”.

  The definition of this includes ‘peaceful’ which definitely cannot be attributed to a cottage located 3.0m from the A171, the major unrestricted trunk road to and from Whitby! Though the cottage was nice the noise from this road is horrendous, with huge articulated lorries thundering past at all hours and motorcycles zooming up and down as though they are in moto GP. This road is not mentioned at at all in the property description and if it had we would not have booked it. It also does not show in any of the photographs. We believe that this is a deception and if it was closer to home we would have left after one night and asked for a full refund. The location and the traffic cannot be altered but the listing should be more honest. It’s not what we expect from a well known cottage company. VERY disappointed!

  We had a lovely week, the lounge, kitchen and dining area is a very generous space.

  The beds are very comfortable and the en-suite showers are very powerful. The negatives are, the cottage was dirty the tops were clean but the skirting boards and floors were filthy, cobwebs in the lounge and the rug needed a good vacuum luckily we took covers for the settee. The kitchen needs more glasses, cups and cutlery. We requested the bedroom was set up as a king size and cottage was clean as two of us have MS but unfortunately neither were actioned. The outside area has good parking for two cars and secure for our two small dogs. The road noise is loud but didn’t effect us plus we took two sun loungers. There is a great field for dog walking just around the corner away from the main road which has a hard surface suitable for our scooters. We would visit again but please address the cleaning.
