    We had a fabulous stay in this cottage, it has everything you need for your stay and has so much history. Definitely home from home.The location is great for visiting many different beaches and the train from Whitby to Pickering was a great experience with stunning scenery. The village itself is lovely with nice dog walks from the door and so peaceful. I’m sure we will be returning.
