Rosemary Cottage

Lovely little cottage, not suitable for small dogs as mine ran under the gate onto the road and very nearly got run over by a car, could tell a lot of dogs have stayed there, has everything you would need although I did not use most of it as there were only 2 of us, needs a bit of a good cleaning and maintenance repairs, but only really slept there as the weather was so lovely that we were out all day.

We had a wonderful stay!

The location was perfect for exploring the surrounding area, and having a fantastic garden centre and café just a five-minute walk away was an added bonus. The cottage was comfortable, welcoming, and had everything we needed for a relaxing break. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend it and would happily stay again.

Stayed here before, cottage is in need of a bit of TLC re paintwork and carpets.

Otherwise delightful cottage with all you need . A home from home really and plenty of lovely places to visit within a very short drive.

Second time staying at this lovely cottage and had a lovely stay.

Best nights sleep guaranteed.

Our 3rd stay here,home from home, clean and everything you need for your stay Beautiful cottage in a beautiful village, lots of local amenities Getting ready to book our 4th holiday here.

Thankyou for having us rosemary cottage See you again soon.

Lovely quiet cottage in a lovely village.

On arrival found lots of dog biscuits on rug in living room. Cottage was comfy and cozy, sadly the central heating wasn’t working and with temperatures of 4 deg it was cold in a morning as you couldn’t light fire. Even with this the stay was very nice .

Whilst the cottage is lovely clean and nicely decorated we found that the garden is not securely enclosed especially for small dogs that can get through so my little dachie had to be supervised when let out.

We also found the fridge to be very small and as we went over Christmas found getting all the food into the fridge a challenge, could also do with an oven glove.

A well equipped, warm (in November), clean and welcoming cottage in a quiet location.

Very comfortable bed and a good shower. Parking directly outside and 2 minutes walk to the station. The village shops are excellent.

Our second visit to this beautiful cottage, just booked our 3rd one, no complaints, but would love a small TV in bedroom just to top it all off love it here

A lovely little cottage in a quiet location.

its got a good feel which added to our break. I’d stay there again.

Rosemary cottage was lovely and comfortable and had everything we needed.

Set in a lovely village close to some wonderful eating places you must go to Bothams in Sleights buns, pork pies and such helpful staff. Very friendly neighbours and down to earth folk. We will visit again

Such a beautiful cottage in a lovely village.

Very well maintained and everything and more we needed. Very nice welcome pack. Very peaceful and comfortable. Would highly recommend this cottage.

We loved the cottage it had everything we needed and is in a great location for exploring the area.

We will hope to book again in the future. Thanks

Beautiful cottage in an ideal location for exploring one of our favourite places in the country.

The lovely weather was a bonus too! The cottage was very clean, comfortable and well equipped. The only improvement we would suggest is to make the garden a bit more secure for dogs. Sleights is within easy walking distance for shops - can highly recommend Bothams bakery and Radfords butchers and delicatessen. Perrys garden centre (less than 5 minute walk) has a good range of plants at reasonable prices and the cafe is ideal for breakfast, morning coffee etc by the river. Plenty of dog friendly eateries in the area - we had a delicious meal at the Forge in Aislaby. We would definitely recommend Rosemary Cottage.

Excellent on all fronts, quiet attractive village, near to Whitby.

Cottage was quaint and in a lovely quiet village.

Appeared clean on arrival but on closer inspection could do with deep clean it also needs a touch up with some maintenance issues.

What a beautiful cottage would love to come back if you'll have us

Our 3rd visit!

Each visit brings back memories of the Steam era when we see the engines passing almost at the end of the street! (Hint - you get a better view from the bedroom window! ). A lovely comfortable cottage in a homely environment.. excellent close parking so it only takes a few minutes to unpack.. pleasant local walks in most directions and a Park and Ride about a mile away.. Thank you Alex and Rachel for all your help and kind hospitality.. again!

Beautiful cottage in a lovely location.

Everything that we needed (except coffee pods, a minor detail). The Christmas tree was a nice touch! Would definitely recommend this cottage as a great place to stay

Really lovely little cottage, very clean and tidy, Ideal position for visiting Whitby and North york moors and surrounding area.

A Great place to eat was the Salmon Leap Hotel, good food and drink and really friendly locals. Great walks in the local arera.

The property was lovely and cosy just right for us with an adjacent parking space very important, good location easy access to all the places we wanted to go.

Only downside was the sofa which seemed to want you not to sit on it as the seat cushions slip forward. otherwise we had everything we needed and a lovely welcome box to boot

Great little property verything you need away from home.

Best shower, perfect position to explore, plenty of walks from front door. 2 pubs within walking and nice Spar shop.

Really nice cottage.

Great location and really nice village. Pub near by, butchers, shop and bakers. Short drive into Whitby too and surrounding villages such as Runswick Bay. Good facilities in cottage, clean and well equipped. Only thing would be couch was uncomfortable and could possibly do with a pouffe or something. Not major as always out all day, just for at night when in cottage.

Rosemary Cottage is the ideal bolthole for two - very comfortable and well equipped.

It's beautifully decorated and furnished with everything you need and in a great position between the coast and the moors. The village of Sleights also has everything you need - butcher, baker, pub. The only slight niggle we had was the weedy state of the garden in front of the cottage. That aside, we had a wonderful stay - thank you

Cosy cottage in lovely location

This is a lovely cottage in a great location.

It’s very peaceful and easy to get to all the great surrounding locations. The cottage was clean, well furnished with everything you need and more. The was a lovely welcome pack and milk on the fridge on arrival which was great after a long journey. Comfy bed. We had a great week and would highly recommend this cottage.

Been at this cottage twice now.

Its such a lovely place to stay. Already booked again for next year, but staying at the cottage next door .I'm sure this will be at the highest standard.

Lovely cottage nicely located and convenient for many places around about.

Nice quiet location and very helpful neighbours. The only mark against it is it could do with a new settee. Other than that no complaints and definitely recommend.

A very clean, comfortable and well equipped cottage which we look forward to booking again in the future.

A generous welcome basket for us and Jak [the Lab] was much appreciated. The nearby Park and Ride is very convenient ---- only 5 mins away. many thanks. Bernard, Pam and Jan

Great location,quiet and peaceful our second visit here.

Within easy reach of the areas many lovely towns and attractions.

The property was as listed, when we had arrived thr place was clean, and as described on the listing.

The owner had left some biscuits, cake and prosecco which was a lovely touch. Whitby was only a short drive away, there are some lovely walks around the area and had everything that we had needed

Great holiday cottage, very well-equipped and comfortable with tasteful decor.

Convenient location to access the coast or North Yorkshire moors inland attractions.

This one bedroom cottage is in a nice quiet location.

It is fitted out well with all the appliances you would need..however as an older couple ..(late sixties) the stairs were narrow ,quite steep with a turn in them ,making them difficult to negotiate. The Bed albeit very comfortable was extremely low and again difficult to get out of.. for us older clients. The welcome pack was a lovely gesture and much appreciated. One criticism would be the attention to detail in cleaning..there were a number of areas that could have been cleaner..the drawer in the wahing machine..(now cleaned by us)..the rack in the oven needs a better clean..cobwebs on lights in Bedroom. But the general tidiness was good. On the whole we thought that it was lovely but probably better suited to a younger couple.

We had a fantastic stay at Rosemary Cottage for a long weekend.

It was lovely and peaceful yet with great accessibility to local attractions. The cottage is very homely with gorgeous decor throughout. The kitchen is very well equipped including branded appliances. A perfect property for a couple, or couple with a baby.

Fabulous cottage great location.

Great welcome . Warm and cosy. We love Whitby and would love to revisit the cottage.

Had a really nice week place was lovely Whitby is a really nice place to visit and Robin hood bay lots to do will be back thankyou

A nice cottage situated in an area that we know and like - fantastic butcher (Radfords) and bakers (Bothams) close by.

And also close to all the places we love - Goathland, Whitby etc. Neighbour was friendly and welcoming. Quiet area, no disturbance. The cottage was comfortable and looks to have been well equipped. However some things were a little tired - frying pans worn out, poor knives (all blunt), loose taps. Oven was a bit greasy and smoky when we first used it. The outdoor wheely bin was full on the day we arrived (Friday) with collection not being until the following Thursday. Also no black rubbish sacks in the kitchen. The bathroom was probably our biggest disappointment - noisy fan (as per previous reviews), very low pressure in the shower and worst of all the bathroom smelled very damp and musty. The cottage wasn't brilliant for us as we do a lot of outdoor walking in all weathers and there was no outside tap to clean boots and very little space inside the front door to take off/dry footwear and coats. It all got a bit busy and complicated! Overall though it was 'good' and sufficient, just not very good or excellent. It could be a lot better quite easily with just a little effort.

The cottage was lovely with plenty of light and fresh air in a lovely village setting.

Comfortable apart from the sofa which was too low. Instruction would have been useful for the shower as it seemed to be either too hot or too cold. Local shops very good bakers and butchers and the general store well stocked. Good walking and close to local attractions. North yorkshire moors railway. Whitby etc

We really enjoyed our stay in this lovely cottage with its own parking space.

We found it very comfortable and well equipped for our needs. The welcome pack was much appreciated, such a nice touch. We would have liked a broom to sweep up with, and maybe a lamp downstairs to provide softer lighting of an evening, but otherwise all good. Sleights is delightful, we especially enjoyed sitting in the garden of the Salmon Leap pub of an evening with the dog. The cottage is very handy for the local buses/trains and all our usual haunts ie Whitby, Goathland, Ruswarp. We would definitely stay here again as it was so very quiet and peaceful (we loved hearing the birds sing in the morning, the owl in the middle of the night, and the steam trains as they passed).

On the whole a lovely cottage in a peaceful area.

The welcome pack is a lovely gesture and the cottage is well equipped. The only negatives are: 1. The settee isn't very comfortable and is a bit low. 2. The bathroom fan is very noisy and goes on too long We would definitely recommend this cottage to others and hope at some point to return ourselves

Very good cottage, with a couple of negative comments.

Cups in the cupboard were unwashed….we always bring our own fortunately. The cottage is “dog friendly” but has no area in which a dog can perform its toilet functions. We also felt a lighter weight duvet (10.5 tog in use)would be more appropriate in early July,

Excellent cottage extremely well kept and very clean .

It is just three miles from Whitby and well placed to explore such well know places such as Staithes and Runswick Bay . Given the opportunity to book again we would have but having looked at the at the dates available we found it was fully booked , a testament I feel to the quality of the cottage .

Clean, comfortable and well equipped.

Nice quiet area, ideal location for visiting nearby towns and attractions.

Lovely place and will definitely be back again.

An absolutely lovely cottage will definitely be going back

We enjoyed a very comfortable stay in a lovely quiet area.

The property was ideally located for trips out to Whitby, Sandsend, Goathland and more of our favourite places.

Lovely home away from home, relaxing and chilled getaway.

Will book again.

Nice cosy cottage with a modern touch.

In a good position for visiting several places.Everything you could need was provided.Only thing we couldn’t find were cereal bowls.Lovely fish and chips in the vicinity and nice pub grub.Would visit again.

Really enjoyed our stay, we didn't feel confident in using the log burner so we were slighty cold at night in the living room.

But the house was well stocked of all essential s which was a really nice touch and surprise.

Lovely place.

Really comfortable bed. Decent pillows. Thank you especially for that. Great kitchen, had everything we needed. Perfect for 2! Please thank the owner.
