“Most enjoyable stay in clean comfortable cottage.”

Although can see how some people would have problem with stairs, these presented no problems to us. In fact, quite liked them. Cottage in good area for visiting the Moors, Kirbymoorside being a good location. Handy parking right outside the cottage door, easy access to the town/village for shopping or eating out. Would definitely recommend.

Lesley October 2023

“Crooked cottage was a lovely place to stay.”

Beautifully fitted out, and exceptionally clean. Ideally situated. The steps were a problem and would be for people with mobility problems, however it was worth it to go and get in the lovely bed and shower. Also next level up a beautiful lounge with open fire.

- Lesley, October 2023
Ian August 2023

“Lovely cottage with all amenities.”

The three levels are a bit difficult however, the listing was clear in pointing this out. The cottage was very clean and comfortable throughout. The area is perfect for walking and a great base to explore the national parks and woodland. Locals are really friendly. Definitely would be back!!

- Ian, August 2023
Ian August 2023

“Comfortable, cosy cottage in excellent location to explore the Yorkshire moors & coastline.”

Beautifully presented and spottlessly clean - exactly what you look for when going on holiday! Dog walks from the doorstep, Castle Howard, National Trust properties and English Heritage days out - all within a 20 or so minute drive. Pop along and see the Yorkshire Auction House or nip to Thornton Le Dale for a visit to the Bangers & cash garage! Lovely village - plenty of pubs - thoroughly recommended. Thank you for a wonderful holiday!

Colin May 2023

“Crooked Cottage was a great place to stay, which we all enjoyed.”

The amenities catered for all, cleanliness and the Cottage standards were first class. Location was just off the main part of the village, 4 pubs, 2 cafes, local independent shops. The wood behind the Cottage gave a wonderful opportunity for walks and the local's were very informative. Excellent, we would use again.

- Colin, May 2023
Barry May 2023

“The only thing that I can post a negative comment on is the f Act that there is only 1 small pan to cook with.”

The fact that the smoke alarm was minus a battery, so didn't work, I hope that was just an oversight. Cottage was clean and tidy, we enjoyed the stay

The cottage was lovely, the only drawback was the 2 sets of steep stairs.

Suzanne October 2022

“Beautiful cottage, very tastefully decorated.”

Lovely location, within easy walk of pubs, shops. Fantastic dog walking location.

Sue August 2022

“This was a last minute booking and I'm so glad we decided on Crooked Cottage.”

It is such a charming cottage and it's obvious a lot of thought has gone into the furnishings etc. We loved the quirky features. The stairs and layout took some getting used to but that was part of the fun. The little garden was lovely. Some guests seem to have had problems with the next door neighbour but the house has a sold sign on it so think they may have moved. Just one criticism, I couldn't work out how to use the cooker, even with the instructions, and wasn't prepared to spend any more time of my holiday trying to figure it out. A simple oven with "old fashioned knobs" would have been better. Would definitely recommend it although people with mobility issues may find the stairs a bit troublesome.

- Sue, August 2022
Mark August 2022

“Describing the cottage as having a garden (approx 2m x 2m of concrete) was misleading, particularly since the next-door neighbour was very difficult about our using our access right - "you do have access, but I am letting my dogs out".”

But for the fact that the cottage was very close to a wooded walk, so that we could exercise and relieve our dog without using the "garden", things would have been very difficult.

- Mark, August 2022

- Chris, May 2022
Derek May 2022

“Great location.”

We knew the ‘garden’ area would be small but it seemed larger in the photos. I know nothing can be done but the view along the back of the houses was not good. But overall we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you!!

- Derek, May 2022
Brenda April 2022

“Excellent stay.”

Lovely and clean Stairs a bit daunting at first but we got used to them! Ideally situated for plenty to see in the area. Would happily recommend

- Brenda, April 2022
Anthony April 2022

“Excellent holiday / break and facilities much better than we expected , one of the best we have stayed at and there have been many.”

Minor points: We felt uncomfortable using the rear patio area as the next door neighbours and her dog seemed to dislike our little pet dog and holiday visitors so we did not use it ( shame as we did try and engage with her maybe having a bad day ) Accessing the key on arrival was unusual having to walk through other peoples back space and washing lines , we felt intrusive to there private space. The area and location was perfect with lots of nice walks close by and the people in the village were super friendly. Would absolutely recommend this highly as a holiday break, superb cottage.

- Anthony, April 2022
Annette S April 2022

“Very well kept - love the quirky eclectic nature of the property.”

Spotlessly clean and bed really comfortable. Lounge upstairs was superb - my husband wants the sofa !! Would definitely recommend the cottage to couples with a dog - especially if you like good walks and great food - all of which are within easy reach.

- Annette S, April 2022
Ann April 2022

“Though the property is very nice, we felt the property is upside down,IE the bedroom should be on the top floor, when you have been on along walk climbing those narrow stairs is difficult for the over 70s, otherwise first-class stay in a beautiful village on the Yorkshire Moors.”

Victoria February 2022

“We had a great short break at Crooked Cottage.”

It’s a lovely location near the shops, pubs etc. parking is available right outside the property. The neighbours are lovely and friendly. The property is super quirky in its set up due to the age, you can see many of the original features which help make the property so appealing. We had everything we needed for our stay. It was all kindly provided in the property. A great selection of local info was also provided with leaflets and in the visitors folder.

- Victoria, February 2022

- Harry, December 2021
Sonia November 2021

“The property was everything we hoped for.”

It had everything you needed for a weekend break. You could make the top floor in the cottage another bedroom and then 4 could stay. We tended to use the kitchen/dinner more due to it being downstairs. The location was fab enjoyed the woodlands nearby whilst walking our dog Ozzy. Also people were so friendly in the village. Great pubs, butchers and bakery. What more do you need. Definitely recommend staying here and we will be back.

Judith November 2021

“We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage.”

Lovely comfy bed and quality bedding. Kitchen had everything we needed for our stay. We would definitely return. The only improvement I would have wanted would have been another chair downstairs as there was only one armchair. Delightful cottage with lovely walks from the door.

- Judith, November 2021
James September 2021

“Lovely, quirky and historic cottage in a nice location to be able to visit surrounding attractions.”

Very clean on arrival and comfortable bed and living area. Kitchen was modern and has all the required appliances to be able to self cater. Plenty of parking near the cottage, which was a bonus. Would highly recommend this cottage.

- James, September 2021
Lorraine July 2021

“We loved the cottage.”

We liked the layout and while there was no TV downstairs, we were prepared for this and took a laptop with us. The living room upstairs was very comfortable and we enjoyed our evenings in the space. I also have to note that the bed was very comfortable we are fussy so this is important to us. Kirkbymoorside is a nice village and is well placed for enjoying the beautiful countryside and surrounding villages. Highly recommend this cottage.

Lovely homely, comfortable place to stay and the cottage was so quiet and peaceful at night time. Would definitely recommend anyone to stay here and would return again ourselves at some point in the future.

- Shirley, September 2020
Simon August 2020

“This is a lovely traditional cottage in an ideal location to explore the north York moors.”

Surprisingly spacious and incredibly cosy it had everything we needed to make our week away special. The tight, steep staircases and low ceilings only added to the charm of the place.

- Simon, August 2020
Annemarie August 2020

“The cottage was lovely and clean and liked the welcome milk and biscuits, loved the kitchen/dining area and we spent most of our time in there.”

It was unfortunately 2 floors down to the fridge if you were in the lounge in the evening. The location was really good, very close to pubs and shops/takeaways and was an ideal base to explore. I was disappointed with the outside space as it was much smaller than expected and as the plants were overgrown and full of mosquito's and flies it was impossible to sit out without being bitten, also it left no room to use the BBQ which was provided.

- Annemarie, August 2020
Sonia August 2020

“Excellent location, walking distance to shops and pubs.”

Excellent food at the George & Dragon pub with friendly staff. Comfy cottage, immaculately clean and welcome milk & chocolate biscuits on arrival!

- Sonia, August 2020
Chris August 2020

“Lovely quaint cottage, so close to the centre of town.”

Really enjoyed our stay here. Town is lovely and the cottage is the perfect base if your want to travel further. Milk, biscuits and even whisky left out for us on arrival. Thank you. Top marks!

- Chris, August 2020

“Beautiful cottage.”

Very comfortable and a lovely cosy fire to enjoy after a long day of walking. Everything was there that you could require for your stay and perfectly clean. Great location with pubs and shops nearby - not that they’re open anymore, but thankfully they were during our stay. Definitely a great place to stay.

We couldn't fault it. Our only disappointment is that we had to come home. We shall certainly return.

- Mark, December 2019
Hazel December 2019

“The Crooked cottage is fab!”

Central for shops or a stroll to the pub with good walks across the woods behind the house. The bed and sofa were both very comfy and the Christmas tree was special. With extras such as fab fruit cake and a full decanter with cute little glasses just added the finishing touch to a great beak away. Would highly recommend to anyone.

- Hazel, December 2019

Hilary September 2019

“What a fabulous cottage.”

Loved how quirky it was. We only stayed over a couple of nights so that we could visit the North York Moors Railway for their Steam Gala. Enjoyed coming back to the cottage in the evening. It was well equipped, cosy and surprisingly spacious.

- Hilary, September 2019
David September 2019

“Lovely cottage, comfortable (especially the bed).”

We hardly used the lounge, not because it was not comfortable but two flights of stairs if you want to top your glass was a bit of a pain, however the upside was that we watched little television and spent time reading and doing a jigsaw which is what a holiday is for! The sitting out area was smaller than I expected and even though it was pleasant it does not get the sun. There is are lovely walks behind the cottage into Manor Vale Woods for long or short walks, handy for an evening stroll for the dog. The village had excellent amenities, a butchers, greengrocers, bakery, Indian, Chinese and chip shop as well as a Spar and Co-op and there is a larger Co-op and Lidl in Pickering (7 miles) for a bigger more varied shop. Lots to do in the area which makes the cottage ideal as a base. Jane (the owner) left us milk, cake and eggs, changed the linen after the first week and left us another 6 eggs.

Ruth May 2019

“Very Comfortable,welcoming and quaintly rustic cottage .”

Steep windy stairs may not be suitable for anybody elderly or inform. Owner had left several lovely welcome touches including free range eggs, milk and fruitcake . Lovely area with pubs and tea shops just around the corner and some very good local woodland walks. Area new to us and we enjoyed exploring York and Whitby and highly recommend the North Yorks Steam Railway at Pickering.

- Ruth, May 2019
Peter May 2019

“Spent a smashing week in Kirkbymoorside as we have done for the last four years, unfortunately we had more than our fair share of rain, but it did not spoil our holiday or dampen the reception we received from all the local folk.”

We will be back next year................. Next year we will be looking closely at the staircases in the cottages, at our age it became a pain to go up and down two staircases to access the lounge from the kitchen dining area, especially as the staircases are narrow and twisty. (I can understand why there is a trap door in the ceiling.}

- Peter, May 2019
Lee April 2019

“Excellent little cottage, close to town centre but fairly quiet.”

Good facilities on offer in both the cottage and Kirkbymoorside. Parking not a problem - plenty of space in street outside.

“Lovely Quaint little cottage, reminded us of our first home together with the steep windy stairs.”

Couple pieces of fruit cake left for our arrival, was delicious. Lovely place to stay easy access to explore nearby towns and villages, good walk just round the Corner in Manor Vale Wood. Would definitely come back again especially as its dog friendly. Thank you Lewis, Victoria & Blue the Whippet.

Very comfortable and everything you could want from a country cottage. Back yard is ideal to let dog out into and a lovely space to sit too. Neighbors all friendly and helpful. Nearby walk for dog in woods. All pubs and shops very near. Lovely villages and towns in surrounding area. All rooms are spacious. Staircase is on the narrower side but did not concern us.

“Convenient location for North Yorkshire’s attractions.”

The cottage was lovely and cosy - comfy bed after all the hiking! Nice little touches like a glass of port and fruit cake welcome, milk tea and fresh farm eggs were all appreciated.

- Lorraine, September 2018
Ken August 2018

“Crooked Cottage was quirky, as advertised, and that was part of its charm.”

It was very well prepared for our arrival, and we appreciated the fresh-cut flowers and the food and drink offerings that welcomed us. It was ideal for two, with a small back yard and table and chairs, surrounded by a bank of container flowers and some stone walling. A great retreat, and an opportunity to meet the neighbours, if you wish. Our one reservation about the cottage was the two flights of narrow stairs - plenty to hold on to, but possibly a challenge for the elderly, infirm or disabled. The Cottage was ideally located in a quiet part of the village, but only two or three minutes' walk from shops and the King's Head Hotel, a friendly venue which serves excellent meals. Everyday needs are well served by the local shops, and the local pharmacy even sells "medicinal" wine! Kirkbymoorside is a delightful, characterful, historic small town with a Wednesday market. It attracts visitors, but is not inundated with them! It's also an ideal base for touring the North Yorkshire Moors and Whitby, where we commuted to the Folk festival a couple of times, and were able to park centrally - in peak season! - by arriving early and breakfasting there. It's a 45 minute drive, but passes quickly and pleasantly enough with so much moorland scenery to enjoy en route.
