Excellent location for all the surrounding area e.g. Whitby, Robin Hood Sands, Staithes, Goathland. Will definitely come back and would happily book this cottage. The Forge Inn, Aislaby is excellent too and only 200 yards away

E. toilet rolls, kitchen rolls, cloths, hand soap, dishwasher tablets etc. We were lucky to have reasonably quiet occupants in the apartment above us, would be wonderful for a big family get together. On the downside for us, a bit of chain link fence across the bottom of the garden would of been helpful, as we have a curious doggy and had to keep her on a lead incase she decided to go off exploring.

Turning on the radiators and towel rails made no difference. So the apartment felt cold, towels did not dry, the shower rooms remained damp and we had no means of drying wet coats and other outdoor clothing. The apartment was fairly clean but the carpet needed vacuuming. On the other hand, the beds were comfortable and the view from the apartment was amazing.
