  May Cottage is a truly beautiful place to stay.

  So much attention to detail and beautiful styling, a real pleasure to be in. Everything about this Cottage has been done to a very high standard and the result is a relaxing place to stay. The appliances and heating were simple to use and all instructions provided. The courtyard rear is a real sun trap and although small it is secure and private and even in March we sat outside and enjoyed eating Al fresco. The bed in the master bedroom is supremely comfortable, we did not use the second bedroom but everything about this Cottage is quality so I would imagine it would be of the same high standard as the master bedroom. The whole cottage was spotlessly clean. May Cottage has private parking which is a real bonus being on the high street. The Cottage is on the main road but noise is not an issue, yes you can hear the traffic but it just melts into the background and does not detract in any way from the overall lovely ambience of staying here. Micheal and Julia the owners live next door and they are a really lovely couple. On hand for anything if needed and a friendly Good Morning but never obtrusive. I would highly recommend staying at May Cottage as a base for any reason and would definitely book here again.

  We had a thoroughly enjoyable week at number 25 , with our 2 spaniels .

  The gardens front and rear were totally enclosed which was brilliant. We have stayed in many places where they advertise the garden as being enclosed but in reality they are not which is a total disappointment. Because it was early March we couldn’t sit in the gardens, but the sunshine streamed into the kitchen and dining area and it was warm enough to have the patio doors open.The rear garden is secure , private and pristine. Also the front garden is raised and if it had been a little warmer we would have enjoyed a coffee with the view to Peasholm Park. On arrival there was a super welcome pack for us humans and treats for Zara and Bella our spaniels . Also 2 doggy fleeces, a towel and dog bowls to use during your stay. So many interesting walks from the doorstep….and the beach just a ten minute walk away. As you get to the beach there is Taylor’s bar and Kitchen. A super place, great staff, lovely food and dogs very welcome. Also a 2 minute walk from the house , an excellent fish & chip shop ,the tastiest ever . We can’t recommend number 25 highly enough and will definitely return. Many thanks for making our holiday perfect.

  Wow first impression spotlessly clean and smells lovely, inside and out has the wow factor.

  Parking literally just outside the enclosed back patio perfect for our furboy met by Julia owner who went through need to know basics welcome gift basket of tea coffee milk and biscuits and fresh flowers a very nice touch. Upstairs 2 very large bedrooms and bathroom also separate toilet downstairs which was perfect for us oldies.

Beds are super comfy best I’ve slept on beautiful decor throughout with gorgeous soft furnishings very cozy. Luxurious m&s towels sheets and top quality pots pans cutlery lots of books games and Netflix the area is perfect for touring Scarborough Whitby Pickering and beautiful villages May cottage is just stunningly beautiful credit to Julia and Michael if we had one comment it would be the settees are a little low down for us oldies but don’t take that away from everything else and thank you so much for letting us stay in your fabulous cottage we will definitely return. Booking through Sykes always a pleasure.

  This is the most beautiful house in a pretty village .

  It is lovingly furnished with period furniture and artefacts befitting its age . It was very comfortable both in the seating areas and the bedrooms . The bedding and curtains were luxurious and spotlessly clean . Our family of seven adults and four children had plenty of room to play and relax both inside and outside the house in the fabulous garden . The spotless kitchen was certainly well equipped and had everything you need to cook a meal for eleven people and we enjoyed the seating area in the garden while having our barbacue . If you appreciate an historical setting surrounded by period furnishings, then this is the house to stay in .The house is a credit to the hosts Heather and Kevin . The location is great for the coastal towns nearby and also the water park which is just down the road. (The water park hosts the weekly Parkrun as well as water activities ) A most memorable time was had by all . Celia Gibson

  This is an amazing holiday home.

  The standard throughout is excellent. The beds are all extremely comfortable, the welcome pack was brilliant, the location is ideal. Communication with the owners was effortless. They were readily available and genuinely dedicated to ensuring our stay was as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The standard of cleanliness was impeccable. We enjoyed the log fire and the comfortable lounge, including the lovely view over Peasholm Park. The kitchen was well equipped and the dining room was ideal for family meals. Although our stay encompassed January and February – the property was warm and cosy. There are lots of very thoughtful touches throughout the property – the owners have genuinely tried to think of everything. This holiday home stands out as one of the best we’ve had the pleasure of staying in. We would have no hesitation in returning.
