  • Mr Atkin

    Lovely accommodation off the beaten track but in easy reach of Whitby and many small beaches. Good eating out locally

  • Mr Simms

    Quiet location close to the coast, field with track for walking the dogs, games room, clean and tidy accommodation and very helpful nice owners providing great local advice and tips. Will definitely recommend and use again next time in the area.

  • Mrs Wynne

    The cottage is in a great location for access to beautiful beaches along the coast all a few minutes drive away. The 3-4 cottages are tightly packed together around the shared games room, and adjacent to the owners’ property on a very quiet long narrow single track road. The setting feels remote but not private. The meadow opposite is lovely, and there are plenty of footpaths to explore. The enclosed garden of Catkin cottage is a small courtyard with a low wall, overlooked by other gardens and the road.
