  Lovely apartment and great location.

  We enjoyed exploring Barnard Castle and nice hikes in the surrounding area. Apartment was very clean & comfortable and had good facilities (pans, tea towels, etc.). In particular, nice river view and we enjoyed listening to the sound of the river. Didn't really notice the road noise that other reviewers mentioned. The view down to the cellar from the lounge is cool (you can get down there too)! The main issue was the poor internet. Smart TV and the Alexa device were effectively non-functional as a result. Don't come here if you want to be able to watch your favourite series or a movie in the evening, or come prepared with them pre-downloaded. We resorted to using our own mobile data to download things, but some networks won't have signal at the apartment (EE did but Vodafone didn't). Would not come here if expecting to do any remote working. If the owner upgrades the broadband then we could happily recommend others staying here.

  We really enjoyed our stay here. The cottage was better than expected and well maintained. All the personalised decorations demonstrated how well taken care of the cottage is. We really appreciated the bottle of wine left for us and our dog enjoyed sun bathing on the dog bed in the garden. The kitchen had everything you could need and we were left with plenty of towels and dishcloths. Redcar was a great spot for our break. The cottage was a short 5 minute walk from the beach which was beautiful but for being so close, the street was still really quiet. We also had day trips to Scarborough (1hr 15mins) and Whitby (45mins away) which the cottage was well placed for. We highly recommend this cottage and would stay again.

  Fantastic cottage with plenty equipment and goods to meet all your needs. Lots of quirky interior design features that were very interesting. Welcome pack and bottle of wine was a lovely gesture on arrival. Situated on the edge of Redcar which is sadly in need of some local regeneration ( like most towns) however beautiful beaches on your doorstep,dog friendly. Excellent for trips to Saltburn, Kettleness for fossils , Staithes and Whitby. Hartlepool royal navy museum and marina is a short drive. Nearby villages of Yarm ,Guisborough and Stokesly for markets all available. Main town of Middlesbrough just down the road for shopping. All in all a lovely cottage, close to lots of things to do at every level.

  We had a wonderful stay at the property.

  Only negatives are the misrepresentation of the view of the river and bridge. From the photographs on yr website it looked like you had a superb view of the bridge and river - this was not the case. Possibly from other properties but not this one. Also not easy Parking - mainly due to roadworks but even so I think this should be pointed out. The property itself is stunning, it had everything and more that you would need for a very comfortable stay. The cleanliness was also superb. Would highly recommend if you didn't mind not having a view and the parking isdue.

  A lovely clean apartment in a superb location -close to town and castle as well as some lovely walks .

  As avid tea drinkers it was great to find a teapot as well as a milk jug -rarer than you would imagine! Beds were super comfortable and we found ourselves sleeping in way past our normal getting up time! Would have liked a mirror near a plug point for blow drying hair and dining chairs were incredibly uncomfortable but they are the only slight criticisms , apart from maybe a welcome pack of some sort would have been nice.Even post -Covid we have always found something has been left for us in other places even if it was just a pint of milk and some nice biscuits.
