    “West cottage was a lovely place to stay while holidaying with 2 adults and 2 young children.”

    The cottage was clean and well presented and had a kind welcome gift of a bottle of wine. The pool was a great hit with the kids with lots of toys and floats to play with. The outside area including our private patio and shared lawn area, were a great safe place for the kids to run about and also enjoy meals and drinks. The area the cottages are located in are very close to the village of Rillington with a local shop, chip shop, butchers and 2 pubs/ restaurants. We also visited Flamingo land ...

We also visited Flamingo land and Scarborough on days out which again weren't long drives away.
