    “Great house, very clean and comfortable.”

    unfortunately we stayed, and the weather was cold, and the house heating could not keep us warm, it ran constantly, but did not heat the house well enough to remove the chill, we left early

    I'm really sorry to hear that. We will have the heating checked out as we have never heard about the heating not being enough from previous guests nor experienced this ourselves when we have stayed so there must be something wrong. If you had called us as we would have called the heating engineer out immediately. Also, we do keep some electric heaters in the garage and you could have used the gas fire in the lounge. If you find something wrong with a cottage you are staying in it's always worth calling the owners as the majority of times it will be something they are unaware of and would welcome being informed so they can correct it.

Just along the road is the well-known Cinder Track, a disused railway line, twenty three miles long, for walkers, cyclists and your four legged friends!

An enjoyable walk of 2.5 miles brings you to the ancient smugglers village of Robin Hood's Bay, with its sandy cove, rock pools and fossil hunting opportunities.

Just over 2 miles in the other direction is Whitby with its famous Abbey, reached by the 199 steps.
