Guests say

Guests have had a delightful experience at Bartlett's Barn, praising its peaceful rural setting, friendly owners, and excellent on-site facilities including a swimming pool, sauna, and games room. The cottage's cosy atmosphere and the surrounding natural beauty, including nearby forestry walks and wildlife, have been highlights for many. While some minor feedback on furniture cleanliness and additional kitchen equipment was noted, the overall sentiment is one of eagerness to return for another enjoyable stay.

The cottage received positive remarks for its overall state, but there were suggestions for a deeper clean of furniture and carpets, especially considering it is dog-friendly. No other negative comments on cleanliness were noted.

The location is highly praised for its peaceful and quiet rural area, with easy access to local supermarkets and attractions in Scarborough and Whitby. The natural surroundings and wildlife sightings added to the charm.

The cottage is considered lovely and well-appointed, with a cosy and warm atmosphere. However, there were comments about the lounge not accommodating five people comfortably and the mattress not being the most comfortable.

Facilities like the swimming pool, sauna, and games room were highly appreciated and described as brilliant. Some guests suggested the need for more kitchen equipment, but overall, the facilities contributed positively to their stay.

While guests have expressed gratitude for the welcoming and helpful nature of the owners, there is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches in the reviews provided. Therefore, it is not possible to assess this category.

    A lovely base for exploring. So peaceful but within east reach of the east coast. An added bonus of the swimming pool and games room - ideal after a day of exploring. Thank you for a lovely stay.
