“Lovely cottage & cool in the heat!”

Very quiet village, the villagers were really friendly, as was the way with all we met in the area. Great walks from the doorstep for the dogs. Situation was perfect, not far from Saltburn, for the beach, food shopping (Sainsburys). We did the Cleveland Way costal path from Redcar to Whitby in stages. On hotter days we caught the local bus back to the car, which was brilliant. Loved Staithes, Saltburn, Runswick and Whitby Abbey (Whitby town was very busy ).

Lovely treats left and the essential milk plus dog biscuits for our four legged friends. Highley recomend Chaple Cottage. Thank you Neil

“A lovely, charming cottage that was perfect for us and our two dogs.”

Very cosy and comfortable and set in a beautiful little village with lovely walks for the dogs from the cottage. There was so much to do in the near vicinity with a choice of beach and countryside. The owner of the cottage was lovely and couldn't do enough to ensure we had an enjoyable stay. Very good value for money and ticked all our boxes.

“Chapel Cottage is a tardis - it looks tiny from the outside but is roomy and cosy inside with every amenity for a great holiday.”

Upleatham is a charming village and there is a great dog walk along the bridle way to the woods. We would love to stay there again.

- Simon, October 2025

“Great owner - issue with the tv but sorted by changing it the same day!”

Small freezer now in place after 1st visit - much appreciated. Looking forward to going again next year.

“The bathroom fan was noisy, we knew the cottage was going to be on the small side but it was ideal for us and the beds were very comfortable, the village is idyllic.”

No traffic at all on the road except for horses and walking clubs, lot's of local walks for the dog as well as Saltburn & Marske beaches.

- Mark, August 2025

Really loved the stay in the cottage The cottage was lovely and located in a marvellous location The village is located in a quiet location - almost in a different time - with horses being rode through the village and cows in the field opposite I come from the area and the landlord- Neil lives close by and is always available to answer queries and help Had a really long conversation with him about the surrounding areas I was reminiscing It actually made my holiday great

Diane March 2025

“Beautiful cottage in a very quiet village.”

Lovely walks from the doorstep onto open fields or bridleways. Visits to Saltburn, Redcar, Marske and Whitby within a short drive. Property needs a freezer - advised owner as this was the only issue as nowhere to store frozen items - ice-cream treats. Beds very comfortable. Would definitely return at a later date.

- Diane, March 2025

Thank you for taking the time to review Chapel Cottage, we’re glad you enjoyed your stay. You’ll be pleased to hear we took onboard your comment re: the freezer and have purchased a counter top size for ice cream treats! We look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Property Owner

“Such an enjoyable stay in Chapel Cottage.”

It was clean and really comfortable with a goody hamper provided. Would definitely recommend.

Jennifer September 2024

“We had a wonderful stay stay chapel cottage.”

We had everything we needed it was lovely and cosy. We met the owner who went above and beyond making us welcome. There's plenty of beautiful walks and also close to Saltburn and Marske. Would definitely recommend this beautiful little cottage especially if you have a dog because of the beautiful walks your four legged friend not want to leave.

Elaine September 2024

“The cottage was very clean, warm and the bed was extraordinarily comfortable: few snags (no bread knife/grater, bathroom door doesn't close).”

It'd be nice to have local up to date area info and local produce in the welcome pack but that's a 'nice to have', rather than essential. Garden needs to be explained to dog owners (shared space with next door on the pathway, big jump up/down to garden which isn't suitable for older or arthritic dogs, small dogs can get through the gate, the front wall is low, next door dogs can put their head through the gate into Chapel Cottage garden. There was no problem between our dogs and lovely dogs at The Chapel's during our stay but it would be tricky for people with tiny, less mobile, or reactive dogs - it'd be helpful to have a bit more detail about gardens where the property is marketed as being dog friendly with an enclosed garden (or be able to chat with someone who knows the property). Location was lovely, very peaceful and nice to have walks straight out of the cottage.

- Elaine, September 2024

We’re pleased to hear you enjoyed exploring the local area and enjoyed the peace and quiet of Chapel Cottage. I’m sorry to hear you had such an issue with the garden at the cottage though. The garden is secure for dogs as is the neighbouring properties garden. The path to both properties is a shared path with The Chapel nextdoor. Both gardens have gates keeping them completely separate and secure for dogs. I can only assume people weren’t keeping their gates closed which is unfortunately out of our control. In terms of the garden having a step to assess it, the property was build in 1670 as was the garden wall which is approximately 1.5ft high, we didn’t think this needed a step to access it as it’s only very small and we didn’t want to start changing any original features. I’m sorry the bread knife and grater seem to have gone missing, I will make sure these are replaced asap thank you for bringing it to our attention. We’ll also check out the bathroom door as this was closing fine, so we will check and rectify the problem if there is one. Although the welcome pack wasn’t “fresh produce” I do hope you managed to enjoy what was left for you. It’s a shame we didn’t hear from you during your stay so we could have explained these things to you. Our contact number is left in the cottage, we’d have been more than happy to help rectify/explain anything with some of issues you mention to help you enjoy your stay. Property Owner
Rachel August 2024

“We stay in holiday cottages a few times a year and this one was an absolute dream.”

There is usually a bit of an ick somewhere which you can pass off as being out in the countryside but nothing here. It was immaculate. The beds the comfiest we have slept in, the shower was great, furniture comfortable (now there are 4 comfy seats, not a 2 seater and 1 chair as shown in the listing photos), the woodland walk was great, takeaways did deliver which was sadly important (having 2 a giant 13 year old who cannot be filled). Saltburn is roughly a 5 minute drive away, Redcar and Marske are about 10 minutes away, Staithes is about 20 minutes and Whitby 40 minutes. All are great beaches for fossil hunting and the lemon tops in Redcar is worth the drive. (Lemon sorbet on top of Mr whippy in a cone). Fresh farm eggs around the corner, smallest church in England and plenty of Red Kites, kestrels, deer and a stampede of about 30 cows right outside the house on the road a few times which we found really amusing. The 4 of us and 2 pups had a great time and brilliant weather and will be back. Thanks so much.

- Rachel, August 2024

Hi Rachel, Thanks so much for reviewing Chapel Cottage. We’re so pleased you enjoyed your stay and had everything you needed during your time with us. Hopefully we can welcome you & the family back soon! Property Owner

A great base for days out. A lovely country retreat. Would return.

Gino July 2024

“Another comfortable and relaxing stay at Chapel Cottage.”

Had everything I could have needed throughout my stay, peaceful and quiet location overlooking the fields to the front with views of the cattle and even the occasional deer. Lots of walks from the doorstep and very close to the sea to visit all along the coastline. Very helpful host who made sure my stay went as well as possible

- Gino, July 2024

Great to see you (and the dogs) again Gino. Thank you for the positive feedback, it’s very much appreciated. Hope to see you again soon at Chapel Cottage. Property Owner

Susan May 2024

“Lovely warm comfortable little cottage.”

Location was very quiet just out of Saltburn. Could have done with a small step to be able to access the front garden . Other than that it was perfect.

- Susan, May 2024

Thank you for your comments. We’re so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Chapel Cottage. We hope to see you again in the future. Property Owner
Gino April 2024

“The property was immaculately clean and I felt very comfortable with everything provided.”

There wasn’t anything missing which would have made the break easier or more enjoyable. I think it was accurately described and if I had to make any adjustments I’d suggest a change of the tub chairs to something more comfortable and practical however I understand that it’s tight for space so they suit the space available but another 2 seater sofa would probably take up similar space? This is the only issue where I’d make an adjustment but that’s being really picky. I’m hoping to rebook when I come back to the area. I thought the cottage was very well presented and the owners should be proud of the work they’ve put into it.

- Gino, April 2024

Thank you for taking the time to review Chapel Cottage. We’re so pleased you enjoyed your stay and found the cottage cosy and comfortable. We’ll definitely keep your comment regarding the tub chairs in mind. We’ve tried a lot of alternative seating arrangements in the past and struggled to find a “perfect fit”. Unfortunately another two seater sofa would mean there wouldn’t be sufficient space to use the table and chairs. I guess the space restrictions are expected given the age and quirkiness of the cottage. Do let us know if you are visiting again in the future. We’d love to welcome you back soon! Property Owner
Jemma April 2024

“We loved Chapel Cottage!”

So cosy and comfortable and in a beautiful setting. Peaceful and pretty countryside, a perfect location for exploring other places. The beds were so comfy and the log burner made our stay even more cosy. The tea, coffee, biscuits and milk were a really lovely touch. We would absolutely stay again!

- Jemma, April 2024

Thank you for the lovely feedback Jemma. We’re so pleased you enjoyed your stay in our quirky “chocolate box” cottage. We’d love to welcome you all back in the future and hope to see you again! Property Owner
Luke December 2023

“Lovely cottage to stay at, so peaceful.”

Cosy feel with the log burning stove. Would definitely come back.

- Luke, December 2023

Thank you for the lovely feedback. There’s something about a wood burning stove to give cosy, festive feels isn’t there. So pleased you enjoyed your stay. We do hope we can welcome you back this year. I’m sure you’d find the cottage just as charming in the spring/summer. Property Owner
Sally October 2023

“Lovely cosy cottage for two.”

We feel the description of sleeps 4 to be misleading though. There is one downstairs room making up kitchen/dining/living room - absolutely lovely old range with multi-fuel burner. But seriously no room for more than 2/3 as furniture has to be moved for fold-up dining table. Also immersion heater would not support 4 people taking showers. Location fantastic for Cleveland Way, Saltburn Guisborough.

- Sally, October 2023

Thank you for taking the time to review Chapel Cottage. The cottage is very much a cosy “chocolate box” cottage which is over 300 years old. The layout of the property is as it stood years ago, which naturally makes it smaller downstairs. There was no separate kitchen/dining back then as all of the cooking would have been done on the multi-fuel stove. The fold away dining table just helps to maximise the space downstairs. The property description hopefully explains the open plan living area and dining set up before arrival. If you were looking for a larger property Chapel Cottage is situated nextdoor to The Chapel (Sykes ref ID: 1026640) which is considerably bigger and sleeps up to six people. Hopefully we can welcome you back to stay with us at The Chapel if this would be more suited to your taste. Once again thank you for your feedback. Property Owner
Rosemarie August 2023

“This is a very sweet, pretty property inside and out - with VERY comfy beds, very well equipped and spotlessly cleaned.”

The cooker is excellent! Initially, with 4 adults, downstairs felt a bit of a squeeze, but actually it was fine, and a lovely room. The complimentary milk/tea/coffee and biscuits were a lovely welcome, and the owner was very helpful. Thank you

- Rosemarie, August 2023
Emma July 2023

“We had a lovely stay at Chapel cottage.”

It had everything we needed and was in the perfect location for dog walks and the beach. We liked how there were multiple dog walks from the village. We did find the living area/ kitchen a bit cramped but it was fine for the 3 nights we were there. Thanks for a lovely stay!

- Emma, July 2023
Jane July 2023

“A charming cottage in a quiet, rural hamlet.”

The property was very clean and comfortable with everything we needed - bar possibly drying (inside or outside) facilities. The beds and sitting room were super comfortable and all set within the delightful character of a listed cottage. Sitting in the (intermittent!) sun on the front garden bench was a pleasure. Thank you to the owners for their super provision.

- Jane, July 2023
Robin July 2023

“The cottage was everything we wanted.”

In a super quiet location with only the moo of a cow and ab occasional horse and rider or walking going by ,it was perfect. Lovely walks right on your doorstep. Two miles from Guisborough for any shopping requirements and 2 miles from Saltburn-By-The-Sea for the beach or woodland walks . Perfect for a relaxing break

- Robin, July 2023
Mary June 2023

“Very dark Main.”

Catherine June 2023

“My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Chapel cottage very much.”

The place was exactly what we were looking for. The bed is so comfortable, everything we needed were there. The location was perfect for our dog too with the Woodlands just on the doorstep. The holiday was perfect, we slept so well just so peaceful. We love the place. Thank you Catherine & Danny

Stephen April 2023

“We had a lovely stay in this characterful cottage.”

Super location. The lounge/kitchen was very cosy, even in the snowy weather, with the multi-fuel burner and it was lovely to watch the birds in the garden and the wildlife in the field opposite. The owner was very helpful and attended to all our needs.

- Janet, March 2023
Maureen February 2023

“Cosy cottage which was spotlessly clean.”

Lovely comfy bed great location for walking and delicious seafood from the coast. Think of all the cottages we've rented from Sykes this was one of the best.

Graham November 2022

“We had a lovely stay at the cottage with everything needed to make it a happy one.”

Neil, the owner, was always discreetly at hand to deal with any minor issues and even cleared the leaves from the footpath halfway through the stay. The cottage is compact which made it cosy but the upstairs was bigger and comfortable and warm. Was keen to use the multi-fuel burner each evening but the heating was rather efficient which made it a bit obsolete! Walks for our two pups were great and varied but the freedom to run in an unoccupied field's was their favorite with detours into the woods. All in all a great stay and highly recommended.

- Graham, November 2022
Jacquie September 2022

“Absolutely fabulous cottage.”

It really exceeded our expectations! Perfect location in a lovely village and near to the seaside. Would definitely book again in the future. Thank you

Shirley June 2022

“Lovely , pet friendly cottage sympathetically restored, situated in very pretty and peaceful village, with numerous pleasant walks / cycling routes locally, Small front garden, but with there not being any access to rear of property from within the cottage, access to bins and storage shed situated at rear of cottage is via the garden of adjacent property.”

Ample roadside parking space. Beds very comfortable. Smart and spacious bathroom with bath and separate electric shower over which worked superb. Bath would benefit from a grab rail and a non slip bath mat for safety purposes. Lounge/kitchen area comfortable for the two of us with one settee and one arm chair. Unfortunately we did find the space somewhat limited when erecting the fold away dining table for meal times. Generally, we found the whole experience relaxing and most enjoyable.

- Shirley, June 2022
Josephine June 2022

“Chapel Cottage was everything we'd hoped it would be - beautifully furnished, cosy and spotlessly clean.”

It's ideally situated for both the coast and the stunning scenery inland. Thank you for the welcome packs for us and the dogs. The enclosed garden was ideal for our small dogs. We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely recommend it to others.

- Josephine, June 2022
Wendy May 2022

“We loved Chapel Cottage.”

It was old and cosy but has been renovated to a high standard while retaining much of its original features, and was tastefully furnished. It was very clean and tidy and the beds were very comfortable. We appreciated the thoughtful touches including biscuits for us and the dogs, tea bags, milk in the fridge. The kitchen was well equipped and it was warm and cosy. Lovely walks on the doorstep and easy access to Saltburn, Staithes and Runswick Bay. The owner was very helpful. Thank you!

- Wendy, May 2022
Dawn April 2022

“There is nothing i could highlight as wrong with this cottage.”

LOVED it

- Dawn, April 2022
Timothy March 2022

“We had a lovely week at Chapel Cottage.”

Everything was really well presented. The cottage was ideally suited for access to the coast where we spent much of our time walking with the dogs. The cottage would benefit from a second sitting chair in the lounge for maximum comfort when four adults are sharing but no comments otherwise. Would definitely recommend to others and return ourselves.

- Timothy, March 2022
Josephine November 2021
