“Booked for a week but wish it had been longer.”

We had three generations of our family plus two dogs and the cottage was just perfect for all our needs. Very friendly , helpful host and well equipped cottage which was so cosy and warm. Loved the orangery, sitting round the table at mealtimes. Couldn't fault anything and would love to stay again.

We love the cottage and the welcome basket is a lovely start to our holiday.

“The cottage had everything you could want on your holiday and more.”

Very convenient for exploring the surrounding areas.

Robert August 2024

“Wold cottage was fantastic.”

It was so well set and equipped. We had 2 elderly relatives and a dog within the group of seven and it was perfect. We spent so much time in the conservatory we hardly used the TV, which is strange in this day and age. The location for all the places we wanted to visit was also excellent.

Caroline July 2024

“We had an amazing week staying at Wold Cottage, it was spotless, very well equipped and a great location.”

John was easily contactable, friendly and extremely helpful. We couldn't of asked for more, one of the best cottages we have stayed in. We hope to be back soon.

“Stunning cottage.”

For our family of 5 plus dog there was plenty of space. Cottage had everything we needed and more. Great base for exploring north yorkshire. Nice outside space which our dog loved. No complaints at all would love to return.

Margaret September 2023

“Wold Cottage was perfect for us, my elderly dad was able to use the comfortable downstairs bedroom and bathroom, which gave us peace of mind him not needing to use the stairs.”

The orangery provided us with family time around the table and easy access to the enclosed garden, perfect for our dog and family, spending lots of time in the evening sun. Wold Cottage is a beautiful, spacious property and we spent the most wonderful week there, the sunrises were spectacular. Looking forward to returning in the future.

- Margaret, September 2023
Sheilagh September 2023

“Two of our group have disabilities and would have liked a grab rail in the showers.”

The bolt on the upstairs bathroom was misaligned so we couldn’t lock the door. One of the dining room chairs was broken but we were only 4 so didn’t need it. We didn’t use the cooker, washing machine, dryer or heating. We assumed we would need to provide everything but found a welcome basket with coffee, tea, biscuits, dog treats, wine and there was a pint of milk in the fridge. The cupboard underneath the sink had washing up things and dishwasher tablets so we didn’t need to bring those, or drying up towels. Every room was spotlessly clean and comfortable. We filled the week going to different places all within a few miles. There are numerous good places to go for meals or coffee and cake. We enjoyed Chinese takeaways and fish and chips. The local church services were 10 am and 5 pm and we found it was very welcoming and friendly. We loved everything about the cottage and location and have booked again for next year.

- Sheilagh, September 2023
Michael August 2023

“A wonderful cottage, clean and comfortable with everything you need for a perfect holiday.”

We have just had our third year there and loved each one.The owner is near if help is needed and the enclosed garden is ideal for the dog.

- Michael, August 2023
Daryl June 2023

“Tastefully furnished and well appointed; excellent accommodation for our group (2 couples and 2 singles) and plenty of parking.”

Cars pass on the adjacent busy road very fast; the car-noise did disturb some at night.

- Daryl, June 2023
Tony June 2023

“Exceptional property and spotlessly clean , very well equipped .”

Plenty to visit within a few miles

- Tony, June 2023
John May 2023

“The property is spacious, clean, well-equipped and ideal for a multi-generation group.”

The welcome pack, including a pint of milk, was much appreciated. Dishwasher and washing machine Tablets were also provided. The enclosed area was ideal for children and a dog. The location was in peaceful countryside but just a few minutes drive from a good beach.

- John, May 2023
Kevin May 2023

“We were worried about the proximity to a fast road, we need not have been.”

The garden was safe and secure, as we holiday with Janice's retired Guide Dog that was imperative. The road was busy and noisy, we live in a very quiet area, but NEVER intrusive and we did not notice it after the first night. The cottage is immaculate and 2 of the 4 who stayed run Airbnb so know what goes into keeping a property this well. Location is great, easy access to many attritions, walks, beaches and wildlife, though we did not have to go far as we saw, Partridge and Hares galore from the Orangery ! RECOMMENDED

- Kevin, May 2023
James May 2023

“The cottage was beautifully presented and served as the perfect base for our golfing week.”

One small suggestion would be to add some blackout curtains or, curtain liners in the bedrooms that face East. We were blessed with some sunny mornings, and the sunlight woke a couple of us up early as it penetrated the curtains quite easily. Having said that, we would all consider staying at Wold Cottage again when we next visit the area.

- James, May 2023
Kyle April 2023

“Absolutely lovely cottage.”

Immaculate throughout and lovely owners. Would highly reccomend and will be back!

Helen March 2023

“An exceptionally clean, warm and spacious house.”

Everything we needed and more. Ground floor bedroom and bathroom was much appreciated. Great views across farmland from all rooms. Well located for walks in the countryside and a short easy drive to the beautiful coast. Plenty of places to visit nearby.

Susan February 2023

“We've used this property before and so know what we are returning to - cosy, super clean, well equipped .”

Wold Cottage is well maintained and in a position to easily access local beauty spots and activities . Always a lovely stay, hats off to Pickering family

Eva December 2022

“A fantastic cottage with everything you could need .”

Fantastic safe outdoor space for our dog . Wonderful views including sunrise . On a clear night you get to see lots of stars as light pollution is minimal . The owner is fantastic . our family of 8 plus 1 dog had a wonderful time .The bedrooms are roomy and very comfortable with the exception of the mattress to the downstairs room which is a small double and quite uncomfortable . The cottage has plenty of parking with easy access to Hunmanby ,Filey and the surrounding areas . We Visited the Piebald inn during our stay and had some of their fantastic homemade pies ,they were superb . We would highly recommend a stay at this cottage .

“Well equipped house wonderfully clean and comfortable.”

The location is ideal for visiting the nearby seaside towns.

- James, October 2022
Michael October 2022

“Lovely cottage everything you could wish for in a rural setting but not far from Hunmanby and East coast attractions.”

The owner is helpful and available if needed. We have stayed here twice and are coming back next year, need I say more!

- Michael, October 2022
Donna September 2022

“One of the nicest cottages we've stayed in.”

Only down side is busy road. But it didn't spoil our stay. Panaramic veiws from bedrooms gave amazing sunrises and sunsets.

- Donna, September 2022
Gillian August 2022

“Delighted with the cottage once again.”

As good as new with everything we needed and more. Thank you very much for providing a fantastic place to stay.

- Gillian, August 2022
Hannah August 2022

“Beautiful cottage: spotlessly clean and very spacious.”

Everything was perfect. The welcome pack provided for us was much appreciated. We had a lovely time and the accommodation was first class, John and Irene were very helpful and nothing was too much trouble. Yes we would definitely recommend Wold Cottage.

- Hannah, August 2022
Ross July 2022

“Lovely cottage, great facilities could not fault it.”

Only one issue on a busy country road, but have an enclosed garden.

- Ross, July 2022
Louise July 2022

“Wold Cottage is beautifully presented, furnished, and spotlessly clean.”

It is in a great location with easy access to the coast and inland attractions. Hunmanby village is just down the road with useful shops and some nice pubs. We are a multigenerational household so the downstairs bedroom and bathroom worked well for the senior members of our party, whilst we and our children were upstairs. There’s plenty of space to not feel on top of each other. It’s a house for all seasons as the orangery is a beautiful spot in summer to sit and have meals and the huge lounge would be lovely in the winter with a log fire going. The snug and lounge also provided some welcome coolness during the heatwave! Our boys enjoyed the selection of games provided. In terms of equipment, we had everything we needed. We knew there wasn’t a BBQ so we took our own portable one and checked that John, the owner, was happy for us to use it in the courtyard garden, which he was. While we were there the dishwasher broke down so we informed John before we headed off for the day and when we got home he was there to show us the new one he had installed! We really couldn’t fault the service. For us the only downside was the road noise, which others have made reference to. It’s situated on a fairly straight bit of road with a 60mph limit so the noise can be quite intrusive, particularly with the bedroom windows open at night, which was a must during the hot weather! It really is the only negative and not something the owner can change, so as long as you’re aware when you book (which we were), you are prepared for it. Overall, a super week in North Yorkshire, thanks John for sharing your beautiful cottage.

- Louise, July 2022
Julie July 2022

“The cottage is absolutely beautiful.”

It was immaculate on our arrival, spotlessly clean. Everything we could have needed was there. The owners are lovely, communication was excellent. The area was a great base too , so much to do and see just a short drive away. We didn't want to leave!

- Julie, July 2022
Bob June 2022

“Immaculatley clean property with everything you needed and more, lovely welcome pack which was well appreciated,owner very friendly and at the end of a phone if we needed him [ which we didnt ] very comfortable beds.”

- Bob, June 2022
Susan June 2022

“One of the very few holiday cottages we revisit, I think this tells you everything .”

The location is excellent for us and the cottage itself superb, well equipped, spotlessly clean and spacious. Credit to the owners, care and welcome on every visit.

- Susan, June 2022
Lester June 2022

“First class cottage with more than enough space to accommodate a multi generation family of 8 (6 Adults and 2 Children).”

Very useful welcome pack to make best use of a wonderful part of the country and welcoming hosts made this the perfect week away.

- Lester, June 2022
Lucy June 2022

“As others have stated in their reviews the pictures really do not do this place justice!”

It is a stunning property, spacious but homely. It was home for a week to 6 adults and 2 babies and never felt cramped. The house is well equipped, everything we could have needed for our stay and more. Yes the property sits on a busy trunk road but you soon adapt to the passing traffic which is never constant and in my experience is to be expected on an A-road in rural locations. The hosts were on hand to greet us and nearby if we needed them. The grounds are shared with a smaller cottage but the placement means there is still privacy for both properties. Would love to stay here again, highly recommended.

- Lucy, June 2022
Louise April 2022

“Superb property in a great location to explore the area.”

Cottage was so comfortable with everything catered for, and a lovely welcome from the owner John. So happy with our stay that I'm about to do a repeat booking for 2023!

- Louise, April 2022

“Absolutely Perfect”

Joanne February 2022

“Had a wonderful stay in this character cottage with all mod cons, the showers are powerful, the beds and bed linen are of a high quality which gave the stay a hotel luxury feel.”

The conservatory was perfect for family meals and the lounge seated us all - the log burner made it so cosy. Many pubs in driving distance and plenty of beaches to visit within a 20 minute drive. Would definitely recommend and will stay here again when next on the East Yorkshire Coast.

- Joanne, February 2022
Susan February 2022

“Second visit to this lovely cottage, February 5th - 11th very cosy , welcoming place after dog walks and beaches .”

It really couldn't be cleaner, such care taken by the owners of this place. Well equipped kitchen, not that we cooked as there are many good places to eat in this location. Special little touches throughout that make it a great little place, actually it's not little!!! Oh and good mattresses, fair comment would be absolutely everything is good in Wold Cottage. Well done to John and family, I expect we'll return

- Susan, February 2022

“Wold cottage was beautiful, the pictures couldn't do it justice!”

All the facilities that we could ask for. Clean and well furnished. We had a lovely stay !

- Rebekah, November 2021
Sandra November 2021

“Lovely cottage in a fantastic location to explore the Yorkshire coast.”

Wold has everything you need for a home from home holiday,it’s fully equipped,with a lovely cosy wood burner perfect for a chilly evening,and large smart TV. It would comfortably sleep 8,with 4 bedrooms,two bathrooms,and the lovely orangery.Our favourite part of the day was starting the day in the two comfy chairs in the orangery with a cup of tea. The cottage is on a busy road ,we found you’d get traffic during the rush hour times,but the evening was very quiet.Hummanby is a great village with a selection of shops including a wonderful butchers. Would definitely come back if in the area again.

- Sandra, November 2021

- Debra, October 2021
Anne October 2021

“Extremely spacious clean and comfortable holiday home.”

Lovely conservatory for dining in and pleasant country views. A good dog walk just opposite the home and central for visiting so many places by car. Only downside was the extremely fast road with traffic starting early morning but this didn’t detract from the overall enjoyment of the holiday.

- Anne, October 2021
Susan September 2021

“Beautiful large property, extremely clean and inviting.”

Very well maintained. Yes it was next to a road but didn't impact our stay.

- Susan, September 2021
Samantha July 2021

“The cottage had everything we needed.”

Beautiful and clean and spacious . A lovely welcome basket was such a special touch. John was a lovely host where nothing seemed to much trouble. A wonderful week. Thank you

- Samantha, July 2021
Philip July 2021

“We had a fantastic family holiday at Wold Cottage.”

The owner, John, was there to welcome us and was available if necessary during the week to ensure that we had a perfect stay. We really could not fault the cottage, it was very clean, very comfortable and provided for all of our needs. The welcome pack was a lovely gesture and ensured that our holiday got off to the best possible start. We would highly recommend this cottage for a holiday!

- Philip, July 2021
Robert July 2021

“Such a beautiful cottage, loads of space for us and the dog.”

It shares the very large garden with a smaller 2 bed annex but did not matter at all as also has private shingle garden space off the double entry orangery with garden table and chairs for 8. The kitchen and cooking space was spacious and fitted out with quality freezer, oven with induction hob, microwave and dishwasher. A utility room housed a washing machine and a tumble drier. With a double bedroom and full bathroom downstairs, a king size, a double and 1 twin bedroom + bathroom upstairs comfortably sleeping 8 would not be a problem. The conservatory/orangery was a huge space with bench table that would easily seat 10 with plenty of space left over for a bistro table and chairs. The huge lounge area with log burner and must be 55” smart tv had again enough seating for at least 10. The lane it sits on is probably used as a cut through to Hunmanby and therefore you do get some traffic noise but did not effect us. Hunmanby is a minute by bar with pubs take-always and small co-op and shops. Hunmanby gap beach is wide and stretches north to Filey and south to Reighton sands, dog friendly and safe. Visited Yorkshire Whiskey Distillery the home of ‘Filey Bay’ single malt. All together had a very relaxing and extremely comfortable week here. The owners should be very proud to own such a beautiful cottage. All together

- Robert, July 2021
Susan June 2021

“What a lovely surprise, larger than we'd expected and the bathrooms and kitchen were superb.”

Crisp white bedding, windows sparkling it was a joy to use this cottage.

- Susan, June 2021
Denise June 2021

“This is our second visit to Wold Cottage and we loved it just as much.”

The cottage is fabulous, the hosts are so welcoming and we couldn't ask for anything better. Very spacious accommodation, spotless, clean and tidy with great access to everything Yorkshire has to offer. We hope to visit again in the future thank you.

- Denise, June 2021
Ken May 2021

“Wold Cottage was fabulous - we will certainly be back.”

We like watching old films on DVD so adding this facility to one of the TV's would be good. The attention to little details and obvious pride the owners took in all aspects of the cottage was really impressive. All the decor and furnishings were luxurious and tasteful. The care taken over cleanliness and the covid threat were exceptional. This is a top notch destination within 15 minutes drive of some unspoilt beaches. A really great place to stay!!

- Ken, May 2021
Hazel October 2020

“Everything was fine.”

We did have difficulty getting to the right property. We went to the farm on the opposite side of the road which apparently others also have done according to the lady there. Clearer final instructions may be needed. The house itself was lovely.

- Hazel, October 2020
David October 2020

“This a lovely cottage in a great location.”

There is loads of space and we felt that it was probably one of the best equipped places we have ever stayed in. It was comfortable, warm and generally really nice all round. If there was one downside it was that we found the noise from the road was a little obtrusive. Communication between us and the owners was first class. This is somewhere I would highly recommend.

- David, October 2020
Paula September 2020

“A real home from home - this was our second stay at Wold Cottage and it certainly won’t be the last!”

Even with the current pandemic and inevitable restrictions, the homely and luxurious feel of the property wasn’t affected at all. The quality of the fixtures, fittings, furniture and furnishings is of a high standard - nothing is cheap or poor quality. The garden is very secure for dogs once the entrance gate is closed and you have the added advantage of the enclosed gravel garden around the cottage. Plenty to see and do in the area and Hunmanby Gap beach is a hidden gem.

- Paula, September 2020
Lorna August 2020

“Great location, fabulous property.”

Would definitely return.

Marge March 2020

- Marge, March 2020
Wendy March 2020

“We have had a lovely family break at Wold Cottage.”

The house was absolutely spotless, very comfortable, extremely well equipped and modern. We received a nice welcome from John and the welcome pack containing tea bags, coffee, sugar, a bottle of wine, biscuits and milk was a lovely touch. We would love to return.

- Wendy, March 2020
Joel February 2020

“The house is great, really well equipped and very comfortable.”

The owners are really lovely and John showed us around in creat detail;there was a welcome hamper for us which had tea/coffee milk, sugar and cookies - there was a bottle of wine too which was most appreciated. The big downside was the proximity to the road which, although its classed as a "B road" was really noisy for us, especially for us as we live in the middle of nowhere whith very few cars around, night time was especially difficult for me. On balance this didn't spoil the holiday but I would probably choose somewhere further from a busy road, if you live in a town or city I guess you wouldn't even notice it though.

- Joel, February 2020
Neil February 2020

“Wold Cottage is without doubt the best holiday cottage we've ever stayed in - and we've stayed in dozens over the past twenty five years up in North Yorkshire.”

Everything about this holiday cottage was perfect, from the ease of booking, the communication from the owner, the friendly warm Yorkshire welcome (and welcome pack, which included a bottle of wine!) The cottage was wonderfully spacious, very comfortable and superbly equipped; we especially enjoyed the large conservatory/orangery and the fabulous wood-burner (which we only used for effect because the central heating was wonderful too, even in the depths of an English winter!) The off-road parking space was brilliant and there was plenty of room to manoeuvre our two cars, and nothing was too much trouble for John and Irene who proved to be perfect and very patient hosts despite our technophobia and failure to understand the clear instructions for the use of the smart TV and the ultra-modern touch control hob! Wold Cottage has everything that one could desire for a relaxing holiday and we would heartily recommend it, especially for families and those (like us) with pets, it was refreshing to let our small dog out to roam around the garden knowing that she was completely safe and couldn't get out because the boundary fence and gates were all secure and well maintained. Wold Cottage is ideally located about a mile or so outside the lovely historic village of Hunmanby with its excellent shopping facilities and eateries, and is just a ten minute drive to the coast and five miles of the best sandy beaches in the area stretching from Filey Brigg down to Reighton Gap and beyond, and for us it is the ideal holiday location. We will be back in the summer!

Property was very nice with nice touches like pint of milk on arrival, tea bags, coffee, tablets for dish washer and washing machine, clean nice towels and more than enough cutlery, cups and plates which were all to a quality standard, very impressed with the place, only downside was the road traffic which was outweighed by all the positives

- Colin, October 2019
Beverley October 2019

“Fantastic cottage.”

Very very clean. Loved everything about it

- Beverley, October 2019
Lindsay October 2019

“A great stay.”

Excellent cottage. Very clean, spacious, comfortable and well maintained. Well equipped and plenty of off road parking. Layout excellent. John is a great host who took the trouble to pop over and run through things. Would certainly look forward to booking again when we return to the area.

- Lindsay, October 2019
Howard September 2019

“Second time in this property and it was just as good as last year.”

Very clean, comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. The welcome box was most useful and a lovely touch. I’m sure we will be back. Thanks.

- Howard, September 2019
Sylvia September 2019

“Cottage was amazing.”

Very high spec. Clean, comfortable, spacious. John the owner was very welcoming and very kindly unloaded our roof top box when we arrived and packed it up again when we were leaving. Loved the area. Filey really lovely. Visited Bridlington, not too impressed, very run down. The Abbey at Whitby was well worth a visit, Scarborough ok, but Filey definitely our favourite. All in all we had a great holiday here and the weather was pretty kind to us.

- Sylvia, September 2019
Andrea August 2019

“Friendliness of owner and nothing was too much trouble.”

Very nice cottage that was convenient for all the attractions we wanted. Garden area was secure so children could run around safely.

- Andrea, August 2019
Adrienne July 2019

“This has got to be the best property we have ever stayed in.”

We couldn't fault it in any way and it was superbly decorated and well equipped throughout. Have booked again for this year but for the smaller property as two of our party can't make it this year.

- Adrienne, July 2019
Karen July 2019

“Wold Cottage is a beautiful home from home with every need catered for.”

Our family of 9 had a fabulous time and I would definitely recommend this property.

- Karen, July 2019
Paula June 2019

“The accommodation is superbly well equipped - the fixtures and fittings are all of good quality and the furniture is of a high standard.”

Loved the outside space and the conservatory was a beautiful place to enjoy meals with the vaulted ceiling being perfect for stargazing!

- Paula, June 2019
Gary June 2019

“Would Cottage is very clean, spacious and well maintained; everything worked as it should and it is in a good position for exploring the coast and Yorkshire.”

The additional touches, such as the provision of dishwasher tablets, washing powder, wine, biscuits etc was unexpected and welcome, as were the beach towels. The close proximity of the Wold trail was great for dog-walks and there was ample parking. Main road very close, so. might disturb very light sleepers, but I am quite a light sleeper myself and it was no problem.

- Gary, June 2019
Judith June 2019

“Great location to visit all of the East Yorkshire Coast and Wolds.”

Friendly and responsive hosts......thank you. The cottage is so well equipped and beautifully appointed, the mix of old and new is another feature which gives it great character and charm

- Judith, June 2019
Michael May 2019

“A lovely cottage, one of the best we have stayed in.”

It had all we needed and is set in a wonderful location. The owner came to greet us and show us where things were and how they worked.We had a great holiday in 5 star luxury.

- Michael, May 2019
Peter May 2019

“Superb well appointed accommodation with everything provided.”

The beds were very comfortable and we enjoyed sitting in the conservatory looking over the fields when having breakfast. The owners are close at hand if you need anything send are always willing to help. There is plenty of room in the property for eight people and more than enough parking. We had a great time exploring the nearby coastal towns and the North Yorkshire Moors, there was always plenty to do without having to spend all day in the car.

Nicholas November 2018

“Once again another fantastic stay at Wold Cottage.”

This property has everything you need for a cosy and comfortable stay. The location is excellent and since last year John has fitted some extra security on the gates for smaller dogs meaning the entire property is completely safe. The weather wasn’t too kind to us but it didn’t matter, as well as a beautiful cottage to come home to there are some excellent pubs nearby. Most notably are The White Swan in Hunmanby and The Ship Inn in neighbouring Muston which has excellent food and wonderful staff. A little further is the Bull Inn in Gristhorpe which is definitely worth a visit especially for Sunday lunch. We can’t wait to return in the future- Thank You.

It was a beautiful cottage had everything we needed the only down side was the shared garden as from the pictures it looks like wold cottage garden but its outside field cottage and not all dogs get on but a short walk to a field

Sharon August 2018

“A beautifully decorated spacious cottage with very modern amenities, a lovely unspoilt view across the fields , which is great at night with no light pollution, so you can gaze at the stars and through the skylight.”

Loads of parking and shared lawn garden. Also plenty of seating at the back and side of house. Great location for Whitby, Scarborough, filey, flamborough head, Flixton for great food at the foxhounds pub, gets quite busy at be wise to book. Just an all round great place to stay. Would definitely recommend.

- Sharon, August 2018
Jacqueline August 2018

“Fabulous holiday from start to finish.”

Excellent facilities. Definitely has the wow factor. Very spacious. Ideally located for visiting Whitby, Scarborough, Filey and Bridlington. Lovely meals at 'The Swan Inn' in Hunmanby. Large grassed area for the kids to play on with the outdoor games provided. Welcome pack was much appreciated, especially the wine! John met us on arrival and showed us around. Very helpful and friendly. There is quite a bit of traffic noise as the cottage is situated at the side of the road and with it being hot we had the windows open at night, but we got used to it. Already booked again for next year.

- Jacqueline, August 2018
Barbara July 2018

“Wold cottage is beautiful,pictures on site dont do it justice.”

It has everything you need for a perfect holiday.the host was extremely welcoming and explained what we needed to know. The area is beautiful and within easy reach of lots of places of interest. Plenty of places to eat out,just be aware that most serve yorkshire size portions!!

“Beautifully presented cottage with plenty of space for 3 generations to spread out, conservatory being the favourite.”

There is some traffic noise but with the roadside windows closed this is minimised.

“Lovely cottage.”

photo's don't do it justice. very spacious and lovely touches eg. tea, coffee, milk, dog treats, biscuits, washing and dishwasher tablets. lovely large lounge and log fire. we really enjoyed spending time in the conservatory. Very clean and warm cottage all you need to make your time enjoyable. We would return.

“When we arrived we were greeted warmly by the owner who then showed us around.”

The cottage was lovely and warm and very comfortable. We were a group of friends who met together for a sewing week, the cottage met all needs for this, especially with the large table in the conservatory. The outside area was completely safe for the dogs who enjoyed their walk on the nearby beaches. We will certainly be back.

“Cosy , spacious, lovely and warm .”

Lovely log fire but don't need to light it with the warm heating already there . The owners are very friendly and can be called at any time for anything you need. Big sitting room and conservatory. Easy to get to Filey , Whitby ,Bridlington and Scarborough and many other places to visit.

“John and Irene are first class holiday landlords.”

Nothing is too much trouble for them. We met up with them a couple of weeks after our break to recover some 'forgotten' towels. They were extremely hospitable over coffee and a chat. Towels were washed and aired. Super people. Super accommodation.

“Wold Cottage is probably the best cottage we have ever stayed in and we’ve stayed in a lot!”

We were a little concerned at first that it might not be warm enough in November. However our concerns we’re unfounded as the property was warm and cosy throughout our stay- and it snowed! We loved the out of town location as we had no neighbours to worry about which was also a bonus for our little dog. The large driveway and garden are enclosed but again because our dog is a smaller breed he would have probably got under one of the gates and onto the main road but the gravelled area outside the conservatory is completely safe for dogs and children alike. The kitchen has pretty much everything you need if your foodies like us and there is plenty of seating areas throughout. All the bedrooms have views and are very comfortable. The bathrooms are beautiful also. The whole cottage is spotless throughout- clearly the owners take very good care of it. We will definitely be back next year! Thank you to John and Irene for their friendly hospitality

“We were amazed at this lovely cottage as soon as we walked in the door - there was a lovely welcome pack of tea - sugar - coffee and milk and even a treat for Oscar the dog!”

The owner came round and kindly showed everything we needed to know and said to ring anytime if we had any queries- which we had none as the Cottage was perfect. It was well equipped for all our needs and so lovely furnished and decorated to a high standard, I would highly recommend this lovely cottage and it was well placed for visiting resorts on east coast and lovely villages. Thanks for a lovely week here.

“Perfect property for a large family group.”

Beautifully presented and warm friendly welcome from owners which included a much appreciated welcome pack. We cannot fault anything and would thoroughly recommend to anyone. We would definitely return in the future. Many thanks for a great holiday.

“This is a beautiful cottage, warm, cosy, lovely welcome from the owner.”

Everything we needed and more for eight adults! Plenty of room for all our family. There were lovely touches such as milk in the fridge and tea, coffee and biscuits - it makes all the difference and is appreciated - thank you Mr & Mrs Pickering.

“Thank you to John for looking after us so well.”

We had such a wonderful weekend away and the cottage was perfect for what we wanted. It was really easy to get into Filey and the cottage was very well situated. The facilities were fab and any problems we had John was really good and helped us with. The bedrooms, lounge and kitchen were all really lovely a great house for a family get together- so pleased to have stayed and we would definitely come and stay again. Thank you again.

“This is a fantastic cottage and the hosts were brilliant and couldn't do enough for us.”

A few more comfy sofas and we'll definitely be back again. Fabulous cottage, fabulous hosts, fabulous views, fabulous area!

“Wold Cottage is beautiful, we were the first to stay here since the new owners took over and it has been fully renovated to a very high standard, with high spec fixtures and fittings.”

Irene and John the owners phoned with key safe and arrival information and John met us just after we arrived to give us an overview of the cottage and answer any questions we had. The photo's do not do this lovely cottage justice, it is very spacious yet retains a lovely cosy feel. The kitchen is so well equipped for preparing and cooking family meals, the orangery has generously sized dining and seating areas, the bedrooms are lovely, the outside space is large and secure, with even a poo bin being provided for our four legged friends, it is perfectly placed for easy access to the surrounding resorts, and a two minute drive to Hunmanby village and a few minutes further to Hunmanby Gap with its great beach, perfect for our dog. The Foxhounds at Flixton serves lovely meals but make sure you are hungry because the portions are massive. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the extra touches provided by our hosts like the welcome basket with tea, coffee, sugar, milk and delicious shortbread, along with little added extras like washing machine/dishwasher tablets etc just added to the thought that has gone into making this cottage stand out. We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Wold Cottage to our family and friends and the only negative we could find, was that a week wasn't long enough.

The property

Hunmanby 1.5 miles.

An exceptional detached, whitewashed cottage, set in open countryside between Filey and Hunmanby.

Adjoining the Wolds Way, this immaculately presented property has been beautifully renovated to the highest of standards, to delight the most discerning of guests.

Well placed for enjoying both the seaside and the Wolds countryside, it provides the perfect holiday home for families or friends to spend time together in a wonderful corner of the country.

Retaining much charm and character, from the painted white beams to the exposed stone walls, there is a spacious sitting room with a feature brick fireplace housing a cosy woodburning stove - relax on the squashy sofas and toast your toes by the fire!

Additional comfy seating is in the small snug, a peaceful spot to sit and curl up with a book.

The dining table is situated in the bright and sunny orangery, where you can throw open the doors and let the fresh country air in.

With a well-equipped modern kitchen, there is plenty of scope to prepare wholesome family meals.

Upstairs, there are three very tastefully furnished bedrooms, with quality beds and the flexibility of a zip/link twin to convert to a luxurious king-size double, while a ground floor double has French doors opening onto the garden.

The impressive and contemporary shower room is on the first floor and there is an opulent bathroom on the ground floor.

Outside, there is the choice of two enclosed areas to sit and enjoy the sunshine in; a sheltered gravelled garden and a lawned garden, both overlooking open farmland.

Nearby Hunmanby is a popular historic village, with excellent amenities, including pubs, eateries, independent shops, tea rooms and a lovely deli.

Just five miles away is Filey seaside town, always a big hit with the children.

The long, sandy, safe beaches are truly magnificent, whether it’s building sandcastles, crabbing in the rock pools, or riding a donkey.

Amble along the two promenades, hire a beach hut for the week, or take an exhilarating cliff top walk on Filey Brigg.

With the stunning countryside to explore and the larger coastal towns of Scarborough and Bridlington just a few minutes’ drive, this superb property provides a wonderful base, anytime of the year.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.
