    “After a long journey up from Kent it was a joy on entering the property to discover a very handy welcome pack, flowers and a lit side light in the warm sitting room.”

    The cottage is very cosy, comfortable and spotlessly clean. Plenty of local information provided to help you plan your days out. Large car parking area so easy to unload and load right by the front door. We visited Whitby, York and Harrogate for an exhibition but the weather turned wintry so we were unable to complete our wish list of things to do. An excuse to return again one day! Many thanks to Margaret for making our stay so memorable.
