Wonderfully relaxing and refreshing visit once again

The cottage is clean and comfortable. Rachel and Rory are excellent hosts. The scenery is magnificent and there is so much to do in the surrounding towns and countryside. Do not miss a trip to Whitby on the train! I did this because it is better than having to concentrate on driving and parking.

Wonderful place and spotlessly clean due to efforts of owner!!

I came here because I had found out that my gg-grandfather lived and worked here before his marriage in 1945. I enjoyed exploring the area and trying to find out more about my ancestors.

Lovely cottage , welcoming hosts , beautiful setting

Cosy little cottage with all you need for a stay in the North York Moors and Coast . Rachel was lovely and had good local information. Beautiful location- just a shame that the cottage is laid out to see the courtyard rather than the lovely countryside when you are sitting on the sofa .

A lovely cosy cottage with fabulous views.

The cottage was warm, comfortable, spotlessly clean and well-equipped. The owners were friendly and welcoming, and provided a lovely selection of treats on arrival. The views from the cottage are beautiful, and there are several nice walks from the door. A great central location for exploring the moors and coast, with shop, pubs and bakery/tearoom all only a couple of miles away.

An invigorating and calming stay in a clean and comfortable cottage run by superb hosts.

The cottage is very clean and comfortable, has spectacular views and is convenient for local amenities and countryside. The train ride to Whitby is not to be missed. The area is peaceful and everyone very friendly. Rachel and Rory are wonderful hosts and have good suggestions for things to do and places to go should you be short of ideas at all. If you wanted to you need do no more than relax in the cottage or garden and take one of many short local walks, but it is just as good for going furthe

A relaxing week in a super cottage with friendly hosts set in beautiful countryside.

Gorgeous clean cottage with all amenities. Plus the bonus of a wood burner with plenty of wood left by Rachel and Rory the hosts. Enjoyable walks on the doorstep and ease of driving to Whitby and other seaside locations. Plus a train service from Danby to Whitby. We enjoy our nightly walk to St Hilda’s church opposite and a sit in the serenity of the graveyard. North Yorkshire must be one of the most beautiful places to be in England.

An excellent base for our stay in the Moors - thank you Rachel and Rory

The cottage was just right for us - it was clean and well laid-out (very useful entrance area!), everything worked as it should. We had everything we needed - and the views were great too. Thank you for the bonus cake and biscuits! We were the only residents at the time we stayed, so it was especially peaceful, and only our own car to negotiate at the front. One minor thing, which wasn't a problem in the warm weather - the door between the entrance and the living area doesn't shut properly.
