A charming, double-fronted cottage, with a log burner for cosy nights in, it's set on the outskirts of the picturesque and popular village of Sleights on the edge of the North Yorks Moors with lovely walks nearby and the coast and Whitby a five minute drive. A lovely cottage, very tastefully decorated, the charming village of Sleights has a very popular cafe and garden centre located on the river bank which is a two minute walk from the property. The village also has two inns, a bakers, traditional butchers, grocers, hairdressers, antiques emporium, church and a fish and chips shop plus a small railway station.

The cottage was in a lovely location, was clean and very well equipped

When we had an electrical problem it was rectified very quickly. If I was being picky a new non stick frying pan wouldn't have gone amiss, but this was a home away from home. Loved it.

Mr Morbey

Nice location if you like a walk or train ride into Whitby.

Mrs Ward

Arden House is a fantastic home from home. The house contains everything you need to have a great time. We ate in each night, and all the utensils we required, were to hand. All appliances worked perfectly and there were plenty of sockets for our own electrical devices. The furniture is of good quality and all the beds were extremely comfortable so all eight members of our party, slept well each night. The location of the house, in a quiet residential area, means noise levels are to a minimum, even though the house is on a through route for the area. All in all, we had the best time that will be remembered, for all the right reasons, for years to come.

Mrs Shackleton

Great stay . Enjoyed by all our family .Arden House more spacious inside than it appears in photo's and location lovely . Small village with great butchers and chippy !.

Mr Dyson

We felt that the house was very welcoming and well resourced, except for oven gloves and strangely a dustpan, plenty of brooms. Sleights exceeded our expectations as a lovely area. Great walks, two very food pubs, we particularly lovedSalmon leaps which had just re- opened but the staff went above and beyond. Fantastic garden centre and boating, steam train at Ruswarp. Only downside was unreliable buses.

Mrs Hart

It was a warm week and it would have been good to have an alternative to the thick duvets, e.g. lighter duvets or a sheet. It was a real negative to be asked to return the keys to the office in Whitby. It added 30 minutes to a journey home of 6 hours and at that time (9.45am) there were no parking spaces in Skinner Street. Could they not be left in a key safe at the property or with a neighbour? The basket of provisions was really great! Excellent quality and most welcome. Thanks. We enjoyed the holiday very much indeed.

Mr Buckler

Thank you for helping us find a lovely cotage at the very last minute. Diane at Yorkshire Coastal Cottages - you were a star!

Ms S Yates
