Manor Cottage

We had a wonderful stay at Manor Cottage.

The welcome hamper was a lovely touch. There was only one slight problem and that was stepping in and out of the bath when taking a shower. Other than that, the cottage was perfect. It was clean, tidy and comfortable. We had everything that was needed for a relaxing break.

Great base to see North Yorkshire.

Cottage has everything you need for a great stay. Beds were all comfortable. We enjoyed a meal at The Horseshoe Inn which is a stones throw away which meant you could have a last drink before bed! A bonus if you have been driving around all day. Very peaceful setting. Ideal for walks.

Beautiful get away from it all cottage - comfortable beautiful a real home from home - great location opposite the village pub and numerous walks from the door including the hole of Horcum circular - the cottage Is comfortable and very peaceful it’s idyllic every item you need they have it.

Our dog settled very well and enjoyed the enclosed garden - we hope to stay again soon

Perfect setting in a beautiful little village .

. Locals very friendly lovely to see little children on holiday playing with families on the village green outside

This was our first time staying at Manor Cottage in Levisham and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

The cottage was very clean, comfortable and cozy and was well equipped with everything you could possibly need for your stay. Pam rang the night before to let us know about parking at the cottage and places of interest in the area. Perry's garden centre was lovely! The Horseshoe Inn pub in the village was very nice and welcoming and we enjoyed some lovely walks. Would recommend Manor Cottage to anyone who wanted to experience a peaceful break on the beautiful North Yorkshire Moors.

A lovely cottage in a beautiful friendly village.

Perfect for a relaxing or walking holiday. With a pub next door serving excellent food and drinks you don't even have to cook yourself, but be warned, you need to book well in advance as it gets very busy. We are looking forward to our next visit Thanks to the owners for making it available. 5+ stars

The accommodation was good, ideal and quiet location close to lovely pub.

Great walking routes straight from the door and well placed for easy access to visit the coast, moorland and lovely towns and villages. The cottage was well equipped and comfortable, our only criticism was that the sofa was not overly comfortable and the interior could do with a general makeover. Having said that, we would definitely consider a return visit in the future as we love this area.

We go away every year in November to escape the fireworks, our dog is terrified of them.

We found Manor Cottage to be excellent, very clean, well equipped, comfortable and great location. The cottage is literally next door to the pub, which would have been very convenient if you could get a table! - it tends to be well booked up in advance, and I mean WELL in advance..... However this did not deter us from our time away as the the cottage is so well equipped it was easy to eat in. Lovely cottage, we will be back.....

Great cottage in a beautiful location, felt like a home from home.

Large boot room is perfect for people who have dogs and do a lot of cycling and walking. Kitchen was well kitted out and we loved the CD collection, made our way through quite a few during the week. Good communication with hosts. We will definitely be booking again.

Manor cottage was impressive the kitchen was very spacious and had everything.

Overall very comfortable,would recommend

We had a very enjoyable stay at Manor Cottage.

The property was comfortable and cosy and had everything you need. Set in a peaceful area, it was a great place to relax. It was very handy to pop next door to the popular pub for dinner. We found it a good location for visiting the surrounding area, from the moors to the coast. One of our favourite outings was going on a steam train on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway. It would be lovely to stay here again.

A wonderful cottage in quiet, peaceful location.

Walled secure garden which was great for dogs. Kitchen very well equipped with a cosy feel. Lots of games/music choice for entertainment. Beds very comfortable. A lovely relaxing family break for us.

Lovely house in a beautiful village.

The hosts are very thoughtful with a call to provide information about local events and attractions and nice welcome treats. The neighbouring pub is great as is a visit to the local chapel.

Fabulous location, great for walking and visiting nearby areas of interest, such as, Whitby, Robinhoods Bay etc.

pub next door has amazing food, but you will need to book at busy times. Cottage had everything we needed and was very clean and comfortable. Would definitely visit again. Host very helpful too.

Our second stay at Manor Cottage (returning after our October 2024 visit).

Excellent again! We had lovely walks from the house. Visited Boggle Hole and Filey and went on the NYMR to Grosmont and Pickering. There is so much to do in this part of the country. I am sure we will be returning. Communication with the owners is very good and the cottage really feels like a home. We had our daughters family with us this time and the grandchildren loved playing with the castle!

We have stayed at Manor Cottage a number of times.

Great cottage for us with our dog. Very well equipped, lovely and warm, comfy beds and a great secure garden for our dog. Lots of walking from the cottage, alternatively, there are many places visit just a short car journey away. The village pub, The Horse Shoe Inn serves great food, booking advisable. We will be returning again soon.

A perfect cottage for a peaceful break in a quiet village, we had everything we needed including unexpected strong WiFi !

Slept well in comfortable beds and all rooms well heated no need to use the log burner. Clean tidy and well decorated throughout and the horseshoe pub next door serving good food and a good range of beers, very enjoyable stay.

a fantastic cottage which was clean, well maintained and well equipped.

In a great location with a fab pub across the road that served lovely food. Dog friendly cottage and pub with nice walks straight from the door

Excellent accommodation.

We had a great stay. Plenty of walks from the cottage, including up and down the hill to Levisham Station. Probably the best equipped cottage we have stayed in.

Lovely cottage ,peace and quiet at it's best, ideally situated for Pickering, Scarborough, Whitby, Malton and more ,

How happy were we with our stay?

It was our second stay there and we will book our third stay next year. Nice house and nice owners in a nice village. Lots of walks from the door, easy access to the NYMR and only a 40/50 minute drive to the coast. A couple of tips; If you want a meal in the pub (dog and hiker friendly) book it well in advance, before you go unless you are well and truly off season. If you don't want to haul a lot of supplies with you, Pickering (15minutes away) has a Co op and Lidl plus lots of smaller shops and you can get a grocery delivery to the front door from Sainsburys.

Great property for our family of 4.

Perfectly located for Flamingo land, Castle Howard and the coast. The house had everything you could need. Thank you for a great stay.

Brilliant cottage in a stunning location.

Will definitely be back.

Third year staying at this property, can’t beat it for location in between Scarborough and Whitby.

Pickering just up the road, Levisham station if you are into steam trains is a short walk away. In fact you don’t need to get in the car for walking trails as they start right from the front door. Situated right next to a dog friendly pub. Every year Pam the owner phones up a couple of days before your stay to give you a brief about the arrangement with the local pub and other relevant information (such as check the Tide times !!) and sends you a text message about what’s out and about. The rear property garden is large and enclosed and ideal for out blind dog. Would thoroughly recommend this property A +++

Lovely holiday house - everything we needed, very clean and comfortable.

Good communication and ideas for places to visit from the owner before we arrived. Perfect!

Manor Cottage is in a wonderful location at the top end of the village and close by the Horseshoe pub.

The house is spacious but cosy and well equipped. The garden is excellent for dogs as is enclosed and a good size. Heating is efficient and instructions for the cottage clear. There is parking next to the cottage off the road and there is a useful boot room to store muddy boots and coats etc.. Close to several footpaths onto the Moors and down through Newton dale. A peaceful and attractive cottage in a unique village.

We had a lovely last minute break, Pam the owner very attentive to any questions.

Lovely and clean and everything you need for a comfortable stay. Having the pub next door was a bonus and the food is amazing. Lovely quiet village with walks from the door, lots to see and do and would highly recommend we could not fault it.

A great stay in a great cottage in a great village.

Helpful phone call from the owner before arrival, how happy were we with the cottage? I'm looking to book it again later in the year. Lovely big fridge freezer if you need to take anything with you or buy things to take home. Lots of walks from the cottage but if you walk to Levisham Station with a dog you will have to lift it over the stile (unusual for the Moors).

The cottage was lovely, spacious and warm.

Pam was very attentive and welcoming. The village itself was beautiful and pub next door was a bonus. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend anyone to stay here. Our only thing to say is that a security light onto the back garden would help but otherwise a perfect place to stay.

We had a lovely week at Manor Cottage.

The cottage is warm and comfortable, with everything you need for a great holiday. The beds are really comfortable and having a log burning stove is lovely for colder weather. The enclosed garden was great for our dog, he loved it. There are some fantastic walks from the door onto the moors, we also had a few steam railway trips from Levisham station and having the pub close by was a bonus! All in all a perfect holiday!

What a find.

This cottage ticks all the boxes. Just like home, well better than home, because we don't have a pub next door at home. My only request would be to have a smart speaker in the kitchen, but otherwise everything was better than expected. We had some lovely walks, although we passed on the walk down to the station because our dog couldn't jump over the stile at the top of the hill, and the walk along the road was very narrow in places, so we used the car. Park all day only £3, [Pickering is £7], but then you will have to get the train The pub next door, was very busy and we had to book 2 days in advance, even then they could be fully booked. Cant wait to return to Manor Cottage, as I said earlier what a find. Many thanks to the owners for renting this property. 5 stars

Great location for visiting North Yorkshire Moors and the steam railway.

Lovely pub next door but definitely need to book in advance as it was booked up all week. The road to Levisham is pretty steep both sides of the valley with hairpin bend, car struggled a bit, wouldn't fancy doing it in bad weather. The cottage could do with a blind on the front landing window.

Fantastic cottage in a great location.

Whole family really enjoyed their stay, looking forward to coming back in the future. Throughly recommended

The cottage was dirty and not as described.

We spent the first hour of our holiday cleaning the kitchen. The shelves were very dirty. There was a cupboard full of out of date food - some food was over 11 years past its best before date. The knives were broken and the oven gloves were completely unusable. There was rubbish under all the beds and thick cobwebs everywhere. Pretty disappointed by the outcome of our complaints. I do have photographs which I will be sharing now.

We enjoyed our stay at Manor Cottage.

It was very comfortable which was just as well as the weather was not that good. It was handy for the places we like to visit then we could come back to a proper log fire. .We would definitely like to back in future. My one niggle was the lack of pans to cook a meal. There was only a very large frying pan and a very large pan that when filled with water and potatoes just for two people I could not pick up.

This is the second year in a row we’ve stayed at Manor Cottage, It has everything you can think of for self catering if you want a home away from home, a good selection of books and a pub right next door for evening meals, Another pub is a 2 mile drive away and both do lovely food and a good selection of beers.

So ideally centrally positioned for Scarborough, Whitby and if you like walking can walk straight from the front door without ever taking the car out. Levisham station is a mile and a half walk to the station if you like steam trains though it is a challenging steep walk back. You can also walk to Horcum hole from here. Pam one of the owners phoned me and gave advice of where to go and sent me links of things we’ve discussed, take notice of the Tide times if she tells you if you’re thinking of going to Robin Hood Bay as you could find yourself there with the tide right in and no beach to walk on!!! Would thoroughly recommend Manor Cottage and if we come back to Yorkshire we’d definately stay there again.

Beautiful location in Levisham and an ideal spot for exploring this area of North Yorkshire.

The cottage was well equipped and comfortable. we had a very enjoyable holiday here.

Nice spacious house, good garden for the dog and to watch the birds.

Nice quiet location.

Absolutely wonderful accommodation.

Couldn’t fault anything. Owners very kindly pointed us in the right direction for local attractions and even suggested the village pub, where we had a superb meal. Would certainly have no hesitation about using again and recommending to friends.

lovely cottage in a beautiful village with a very good pub , whats not to like?

A lovely place to stay.

Nice comfortable accommodation. well stocked kitchen and a great choice of music.

Very cosy, comfortable cottage, extremely well equipped.

Beautiful peaceful location surrounded by fabulous countryside and a wealth of walks straight from the doorstep. Would highly recommend.

Lovely homely cottage, very warm, comfortable and well equipped

Another lovely stay at Manor Cottage.

The owners are great and make contact with you prior to your stay. Thank you for the starter supply of tea, coffee and milk, and the bottle of wine. The new heating system is very efficient, and quickly warms up on your arrival, also, plenty of hot water. The garden is very secure for dogs, even our spaniel!! There are many great walks from the cottage. The local pub, The Horseshoe Inn serves delicious food, and would definitely book a table as it is very popular. We shall return again this year sometime.

Manor Cottage is situated in the most idyllic picture post card village.

We arrived in a winter wonderland and had the most wonderful stay. The cottage is everything we hoped for and more; beautiful, clean, well-equipped and felt like home from home. Had wonderful evenings in front of the fire. Great location, close to Pickering and lots of stunning walks. A big thank you to the owner, Pam, who couldn’t have been more helpful and kind. Would highly recommend.

Really impressed with the new gel radiators - the whole cottage is cushty.

We all slept really well - the beds are very comfy. Guessing the water pressure reduces the efficiency of the shower so not much can be done about that. All in all we enjoyed a lovely Christmas. Thank you

Had a fantastic stay.

Cottage was lovely, owners couldn't be more helpful as they phoned prior to our break to explain a few things and what there was in the area.

A wonderful home from home.

Very comfortable and well equipped with everything you could need. Great location for walking and visiting local attractions like North Yorkshire Moors steam railway which is a 1 1/2 mile walk (steep) from Manor Cottage to Levisham Station. Also visited Scarborough, Whitby, Pickering, Goathland & Grosmont .Had 2 excellent meals at the Horseshoe Inn 20 paces away. (Booking in advance essential). Easy contact with the owner if needed. All in all a lovely stay at Manor Cottage Thankyou.

My only reason for not giving comfort full marks was down to the living room sofa.

None of the family (4 adults and 1 10 yr old) could get comfortable. We all believed this was down to the lack of arms on the sofa as it was a sofa bed. Everything else was excelllent.

Lovely well equipped cottage in a beautiful location, ideally situated for Whitby, Grosmont - Goathland, Scarborough.

In fact you can walk out of the front door and enjoy stunning walks without travelling anywhere. The pub ‘The Horse Shoe Inn’ is literally next door a 20 meter walk across the grass where you can grab an excellent meal but you definitely need to book as it’s virtually impossible to walk in and just get a table! If you can’t get into ‘The Horse Shoe Inn’ then the pubs’ sister pub which is 2 and a half miles away is an excellent option, seems to be easier to book a table in here called The Fox and Rabbit’ also an excellent meal. I walked down to Levisham station a couple of times to see the steam trains it’s a one and a half mile walk ( just over 3 miles there and back) the hills on the way back are quite challenging as they are seriously steep! It’s also possible to walk to The Hole of Horcum from the cottage which is a beautiful setting. Nearest shops are back in Pickering where we stocked up out supplies, there’s a LIDL and a Spar As for the cottage itself everything thought of, well equipped and comfortable, shower wonderful after a hot sweaty day walking, washing machine and line outside to dry, everything except the two armchairs in the kitchen which for some reason didn’t have their cushions on them and we spent the majority of our time sat on these with small cushions as substitutes as it was so cool temperature wise in the kitchen area. The only other thing that we didn’t like was the recycling arrangements, everybody by now recycles and it’s instilled in us and I have no problem putting bins and boxes outside to be collected by the bin men whilst on holiday but taking our bottles to bottle banks in Pickering which is seven miles away is a no go for us!

Lovely place to stay , the cottage is just as described ; well equipped ,really comfortable set in a beautiful location.

We will definitely visit again thankyou.

A lovely and very quiet cottage in a tiny, very pretty village.

Everything felt generous - high ceilings, plenty of bits and bobs, heating offered. Fantastic food in the Horseshoe pub, but do book. I recommend the walk down to Levisham station to eat ice-cream and watch the steam trains come in.

We had a wonderful stay at Manor cottage, the location was perfect, the cottage was lovely, well equipped and very comfortable.

We enjoyed great walks straight from the door, we especially enjoyed the walk down to Levisham station. With the pub close by serving good food, what more could you ask for. All in all a fantastic holiday.

Lovely cottage, amazing setting and good weather.

What more can you ask for! Could not fault facilities in the cottage, owners had thought of everything and we stay in lots of cottages. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely, comfortable cottage in a gorgeous, tranquil setting.

The cottage had everything we needed for our stay.

A lovely well equipped house, very nice kitchen.

Spotlessly clean and warm.

This is our second visit to this cottage, very well equipped, fully secure garden for dogs which is a bonus.

Levisham is a lovely little village, lots of walks without having to use the car. The Horseshoe Inn is great for meals, but need to make a reservation.

A lovely cozy cottage, in a quiet location.

Pub serving good food staggering distance away. Loads of good walks.

Beautiful location, clean and beautiful house with everything needed for a family holiday.

Great to have the railway so near, as there are no shops nearby but you can get on the train by walking down the valley and going town. The moors are right on the doorstep and the sea is 30 minutes drive. Perfect location for family with teenagers and a dog! (Dogs must be in lead on moors as lots of sheep and wildlife)

Great cottage, very clean and well equipped with everything you could possibly need.

A fully secure garden which was great for our dog. Lovely welcome pack left by the owner, who had also called me a couple of days before the holiday to run through a few things. Pub almost next door, serving delicious food, (we reserved a table for each night, people were getting turned away as very busy). Loads of walking without having to get into the car. We shall be returning!!

The house was in a lovely spot and had lots of room for us to enjoy.

We had lots of walks on the moor which is easily accessible from the house. We had a great time and would definitely go back.

Manor Cottage was excellent and we had a really comfortable stay.

Would happily book again. The cottage was very well equipped and was ideal for our dog with the access to an enclosed garden. Levisham is a truly beautiful and quiet village. The quality of the food and hospitality at the Horseshoe Inn next door was a major plus. We had a very enjoyable week at Manor Cottage. Thank you. The low mark for Sykes is not a reflection on the cottage in ant way at all. Our previous booking with Sykes was cancelled and matters were handled very poorly in our view.

Lovely position on the village green.

Kitchen well stocked with everything needed for cooking. Nicely decorated and furnished. Light in the main and child bedroom in the morning, the second double/twin room is the darkest. Instructions and helpful advice all detailed in the guide in the kitchen. Received a phone call from the owner before the holiday to confirm details with us which was helpful. Lovely well maintained enclosed garden. Very pleasant stay in a picturesque location.

Listing for this cottage states that it has two bathrooms.

This is incorrect there is one bathroom and a separate toilet.

Great location both in terms of teh village and wider area, North Yorkshire is Lovely

The cottage was in a perfect location.

Very beautiful. Very comfortable and peaceful. Beautifully decorated. Would definitely recommend.

The single road to Levisham has some very steep bends and we were relieved not to meet another car on the way up to the cottage.

The pub next door had really good food and service. The cottage was ideally suited to active people with a dog and was very well stocked for our holiday, it is the best cottage we have booked.

Fantastic location for walks and proximity to the coast.

A very quiet, bucolic setting in a village with an inn serving excellent food. The cottage itself was extremely comfortable and well equipped.
