We loved the garden, it was quiet and private.
The walk alongside the railway line to Whitby was easy and enjoyable for us and our dogs (who were well served with local adventures).
The traffic noise outside the cottage was constant and loud and particularly impacted the front bedrooms. We felt that the cottage was very compact and far too small for the advertised six people. The parking was a long way away during the five trips needed to unload the car and carry everything uphill. Overall we felt the cottage was overpriced given its size and location.

Lovely cottage with beautiful garden. It was comfortable for 4 adults but a bit cosy for 6 adults in terms of the kitchen and bathroom facilities. Parking in the designated parking space was a bit tight for an estate car but there was plentiful on street parking. Yes, it’s on a busy road but that is clear when you book. Location is perfect for town and country. Would be happy to return.

If ever there was a cottage of charm, quirkiness and comfort then this was it. Ivy Cottage was a delight to stay in, it really was given up to all the comforts of home, the owners should be praised for their sympathetic restorations, decor and colour, not to mention heavenly beds and bed linen.
My sisters said, "anyone would think this was your cottage, it is so like what you would do". No wonder I felt so at home.
Obviously there is no parking outside, but the delights of an open fire and all home comforts far outway such trivia, and any way when the village was built it was by foot or horse and cart. So use your imagination magic away the vehicles and enjoy the delights of a virtually unspoilt village, we did and had a positively perfect few days away. Just what I needed, thank you.

Lovely cosy cottage excellent base for exploring Whitby and the East Coast. Great Pub and Butchers in the village. We have had an amazing time with our family and we will be back soon.
