Excellent holiday cottage in a beautiful area with sea views across to Robin Hoods Bay. Ideally situated for visiting both the North Yorkshire coast and moors. Everything we needed for our weeks stay and on the couple of days that the rain forced us to stay in we were warm and comfortable. Large enclosed garden, great for our dog, and easy parking within the garden area. Welcome gifts much appreciated. Highly recommended and we hope to visit again in the future.
