  Excellent accommodation, First Class hospitality from Carol and Rob.

  There was nothing wanting in the Barn cottage. Home from home! Treats for adults and treats for our dogs! Location ideal for visiting lots of interesting places. The Wolds and surrounding area had some lovely Pubs. Highly recommend The Fox & Hounds at Kilham for Sunday Roast, and between Mon-Wed, 5pm-8pm is the Early Bird menu. Trisha's Steak & Ale Pie delicious. The Bull Inn, Gristhorpe, makes a cracking Fish, Chips & Mushy Peas. 2 for 1 between 12-3pm. The food is piping hot and the plates are hot too! All food homemade not frozen! Just up the road is Cayton Beach lovely! For dog walking you will find Hunmanby Gap is the best place to visit. Parking fees apply, so have change handy. I would definitely recommend the Barn to everyone, if you're looking for a relaxing, or walking holiday, this is the place to stay! 5***** Thank you again Carol and Rob, you are the best hosts we have had the pleasure to meet, thanks for sharing your lovely Barn cottage with us!

  The property is lovely.

  As described. Very clean and spacious with excellent facilities. As this was for three friends with a small dog each, it was perfect as the owners accept three dogs at a small cost whereas many other properties only allow one or two. The fully enclosed garden was ideal. No small gaps for our dogs to escape from. Plenty of kitchen facilities and gadgets. A vehicle is needed as it is very remote so need to drive even to reach a shop or pub. But it is an excellent, peaceful base for visiting places along the East Yorkshire coast and lots of nearby interesting villages. Sadly for me my holiday was cut short due to a fall and ending up in Scarborough Hospital with a broken hip! But as our plans to see Whitby Robin Hood’s Bay and Goathland did not happen, if I did return to this part of the country, I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again.

  Well-furnished property in a quiet street very close to Scarborough Castle and walking distance to all amenities.

  Friendly neighbours who are happy to advise on tourist spots to visit. The kitchen is supplied with very good quality crockery and saucepans and a Tassimo machine. The only ingredients available were salt and pepper shakers, a small bottle of olive oil would have been helpful. The beds are extremely comfortable although the smaller room was a tight squeeze with two large single beds. Washing machine and clothes horse in the utility room is a bonus, although a laundry basket would have been handy here. The only real let down was the bathroom. The cheap-as-chips one-ply toilet roll only lasted a couple of days which meant we were improvising by day three! The malfunctioning liquid dispenser needs to be replaced ASAP and where was the bath mat? All these things could be rectified easily and would have made the holiday rental 5-stars.

  The Barn was excellent in every way.

  Very clean with great facilities. They had thought of everything and also provided a small store of condiments and other things to complement food you had taken with you. I cannot think of one thing that I needed that wasn't already provided. The bed and sofas were very comfortable and the whole ambience of The Barn was cosy and homely. The owners were very friendly and let you know you could easily approach them if you needed them but were never intrusive despite being right next door. Location was quite out of the way which we liked because it was quiet but also in easy driving distance of coastal areas and other local attractions. There is a campsite and caravan storage close to the barn but these didn't intrude on the privacy at all. All in all we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

  The barn is the perfect holiday home.

  It really made our family holiday special. It was warm, cosy and a felt like a home from home. The barn had everything we needed. It was spotlessly clean and decorated to a high standard. My children loved the games and puzzles! The Barn had plenty of tourist information so we were able to plan our days out easily. Our favourites being Filey Bay, North York Moors Railway to Whitby, Bempton Cliffs and a day in York visiting the museums and York Minster. Just be aware that there are a lot of caravans on site. When we arrived they were stored behind the property but as we were leaving they had been moved to the fields in front. Fortunately, we were aware of the caravans and they didn’t affect our stay in anyway.
