Clematis Cottage is frequently praised for its cleanliness, comfort, and beautiful surroundings.

Despite some concerns over maintenance and nearby building works, the cottage's charm and the owners' attentiveness contribute to a generally positive experience.
Most guests found the cottage to be clean and well-maintained, with only one report of stains and a dog smell, suggesting an isolated incident rather than a common issue.
The location is appreciated for its quietness and proximity to Whitby and Sandsend, although some guests were inconvenienced by building works and access issues.
The majority of guests found the cottage comfortable, with very comfortable beds and a home-like feel, contributing to a relaxing stay.
While the cottage is generally well-equipped, there are reports of a tricky TV, a useless tumble dryer, and non-working TVs in the bedrooms and kitchen. The lack of a mop was also noted. Due to these mixed reviews, a precise score cannot be determined.
Guests mentioned a welcome pack and other added touches that made their stay comfortable. However, as these gifts are subject to change and not guaranteed, they should be considered a bonus rather than an expectation.

Vanessa
Great location and very relaxing. Everything had been thought of to make your stay comfortable and the added touches of bed linen, towels, welcome pack, tea towels, to name a few things, were greatly appreciated. Owners were clearly very keen to know if there were any issues, and wanted everything to be perfect for our stay. We were very sad to leave, and would love to return.

Plaster fell from ceiling. TVs in bedrooms kitchen did not work. Insufficient bins per number of cottages. Distance to beach understated. No access. To grounds and gardens which were in fact a building site with a number of checkpoints. Clearly there was noise from building works.
