Robins Nest

Brilliant stay, decor was stunning, nice and clean and tidy.

Very nicely fitted out and finished a fantastic place for a chilled time away and an excellent base to use to visit the area.

Nice and quiet area and the hampers for us and our dog where a really nice touch and a great welcome when we walked in the door.

What a wonderful 5 days me and my husband have had at the Robins Nest!

The host Joanne and her husband have been very attentive and accommodating only a phone call away if we needed them. The cottage is beautifully presented with all the amenities you could need. Very cosy and welcoming with a lovely hamper of goodies that we enjoyed. We definitely will be recommending to friends and family and will be visiting again soon.

Perfect little getaway.

Robins nest was in a lovely location and made us feel like we were a million miles away from civilisation while still being close enough to explore local areas. Nice and private with lovely welcome hamper. Log fire and wood burning hot tub were amazing and kept us nice and toasty. Would definitely stay again but for longer next time.

A lovely location just outside York so visiting the city was easy whilst still having a comfortable and relaxing spot to retreat to after the bustle of a day in the city.

Very clean, tidy and well equipped site which we would highly recommend to anyone looking for somewhere in the area.

Excellent accommodation, like home from home.

Quiet setting with lovely view. Enclosed area ideal for relaxing fornyou and your dog. Amenities close by, petrol stations amd supermarkets. 40 min drive to. Would highly recommended this accommodation.

Lovely cottage every thing we needed was there.

Home from home lovely to come back to after a day out

Absolutely lovely cottage, really enjoyed our stay.

Everything was so modern, clean and well maintained, and the welcome basket was full of unexpected goodies. The hot tub did take a long time to reach the right temperature. If you intend to use it on your day of arrival then you need to get started the minute you arrive. We did exactly that, filled it with water, lit the fire and tended to it regularly. By 10pm it was hot and we made use of it that night. The plus point was that it was still hot the whole next day, and still warm enough to use on day 3.

Fabulous property in a great location, facilities were spot on and we will definitely be recommending to friends and family.

Superb stay and will come again

Beautiful little holiday home that has everything you need.

Every detail has been considered and the welcome pack was delicious. It does take a long time and a lot of smaller logs to fill and heat the hot tub so you won’t have opportunity to enjoy if you have all day activities planned. Lovely once hot though.

We cannot praise the owners and this property enough.

The cottage is outstanding. Everything you need is there and the finish to the property is of the highest standard. We'd like to give a special thanks to Joanne and Steve, for helping make our stay a memorable one!! You are amazing hosts, thank you.

The property itself is lovely, clean and very picturesque.

A lovely little property in such a peaceful area. The welcome basket was a very unexpected but a lovely touch full of local snacks and fizz. As the hot tub is wood fired you don’t get a chance to use it at all when you arrive. It takes an hour and a half to fill and then 7 hours to heat up. On the Saturday it took from 11am to heat up and we got in it at 6pm, this meant we had to sit around the hot tub all day watching the fire as we were not to leave it unattended so we didn’t even get a chance to leave and explore the area. The couch isn’t very comfortable and it’s quite hard. This would have been 4 stars but we had no hot water from the minute we arrived until we left so we were left unable to shower the whole weekend. Tried contacting Sykes and we tried to contact the owners and had no luck getting through to anyone.

Lovely little place, very clean and everything you need, welcome hamper was a very nice touch.

Well worth a visit and stay, will be coming back again.

We had a fantastic stay, never felt so relaxed definitely a 5 star.

The generous hamper, milk, dressing gown, slippers and all the little extras including the dog treats and blanket was such a lovely touch. The accommodation was very clean and the hot tub fantastic. We will definitely come back, thank you.

Lovely accommodation furnished to a high standard.

Very clean and comfortable. Felt very welcome with the lovely goodies that were awaiting us on our arrival. Very secure fenced area which is a plus if you're taking a dog along on holiday with you.

Robin's nest is a real labour of love for Joanne and her husband.

We had a relaxed and very comfortable 3 night stay in deepest darkest January, with a warm fire, the best equipped kitchen, a quality bed, and a hamper full of goodies to keep us going. The location is beautiful with plenty of walking, town visiting, and sea side wandering to be had.

This beautiful property is the perfect place for a relaxing break.

The attention to detail is second to none. The bed was so comfortable. The welcome basket was a lovely touch. We will certainly be back

Lovely property.

Excellent facilities, stylish and cosy. We would love to return and would definitely recommend Robin's Nest to others.

Lovely cottage, very clean and the hamper on our arrival was lovely.

Had everything we needed and the bed was very comfortable. Quiet and peaceful location and very relaxing. Lots in the local area to do and would recommend it.

Just perfect, stunning property, lovely and quiet.

Everything was on site and truly loved staying here and will definitely return.

This is a beautiful property in a lovely rural setting.

The property is super clean and extremely well equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The hot tub is an added bonus and though it takes a few hours to heat up it stays warm for a long time and is very relaxing. The welcome hamper was also very well received and appreciated. We will definitely be back!

Location Likes.

Amazing location away from main roads which was extremely quiet. Just 50 minutes drive to Scarborough snd very close to York. Lovely kitchen to a very high standard with well equipped utensils (lacking a pizza cutter was the only missing item) Bed is very comfortable and bigger than a super king size. Bathroom has a large walk-in shower with swirlflush toilet. The views are stunning looking out over a beautiful countryside with the enclosed garden being a god send for our Beagle who like to 'explore' so keeping him safe. The following are dislikes. Sofas are very small and uncomfortable spoiling the comfort when relaxing. Needs a corner sofa where you can relax properly. There is a driveway to the owners storage yard which is a few feet away from the window, wrecking privacy when vans drive past or delivery vehicles looking in (careful if sitting in your pants lol as you'll be seen). Hot tub in garden is over looked by owners property which really didn't make us feel comfortable using it. Kitchen has a great extraction for the hob with a metal outlet pipe going outside, sadly the outlet to this has a nonreturn flap which keeps flapping down on reverse wind causing a loud tapping like someone's tapping the windows which can disturb the dog or you if your a light sleeper like me. This was really annoying. The fridge freezer has a faulty solenoid which keeps making a loud click when the thermostat cycles on and off which again causes sleep issues. The fencing and or gate is loose in its housing and thus when there's a slight wind, there is a rattle back and forwards causing the iron mongery to rattle. There was a lovely welcoming hamper which was amazing, the wife got me to by a caffetier because the coffee was that nice. Overall, the property is new and has teething problems. No expense has been spared making this an amazing property. If the things above were to be fixed, I'd definitely return but as it stands I wouldn't return. We didn't meet the hosts, which is what I prefer being a person who like to go on holiday and just enjoy time away quietly. Some hosts can be quite intrusive, but these weren't. Thank you.

Robins Nest, is stunningly beautiful, care has been taken with every detail.

The owners have gone every mile to make you welcome and comfortable. The cleanliness was outstanding. I can not fault. It really was a home from home.

Fantastic property in a lovely location.

Stayed 3 nights, just wish it could have been longer, will definitely visit again. Super hosts!

Highly delighted at our holiday let.

The owner’s have gone to extreme trouble to think of giving clients a home from home with extras

Wow what a gem!

Beautiful decor, clean and homely. Attention to detail including the hamper and doggy treats! Beautiful views and peaceful! The list is endless. Only recommendations to have a fan available as it was very stuffy and hot tub to be filled ready as took several hours to be able to enjoy Will definitely return and be recommending to family and friends

We had a wonderful long weekend at Robin's Nest.

Glorious weather, a brilliant little cottage, with all the things you need. Very comfortable and in a great location. We took the dog and he loved the walks over the fields close by. Good location for trips into York. Loved warming up the hot tub and having a very peaceful, relaxing weekend. Great hosts and a lovely welcome hamper topped off our fantastic break.

Absolutely beautiful place with everything we could need.

Welcome hamper, robes & logs were a lovely touch & we enjoyed very much. The place is immaculate & has everything you need with a fully equipped kitchen. The location is a good base to explore the beautiful east coast & we enjoyed the walk with our GSD around Robin Hoods Bay to Boggles hole , Flamborough head ( where we saw seals on the beach ) & Filey. The town of Pocklington is a 5 minute drive & we did a lovely walk down Pocklington Canal. The log burning hot tub was lovely after a days walking.

Gorgeous cottage!

The bed was ridiculously comfy. Everything was spotless. Perfect location. I couldn’t recommend enough. Just make sure the first thing you do is fill/heat the hot tub as it takes a while but don’t let this put you off as I couldn’t fault the place. Lovely place to stay.

We had a lovely few days at Robins Nest.

Everything about the property is perfect and would highly recommend to others. Clean, comfy, warm, great standard of facilities and the welcome hamper was a lovely touch.

This is the best equipped, cleanest and most comfortable holiday let we've ever stayed it.

Allow yourself about 90 mins to fill the hot tub and 5 hours to heat it. No electric means no bubbles though which I hadn't realised until we got there but it was lovely to lay in it and listen to the owls hooting away in the darkness.

Robins Nest is a little bolthole in the country.

We loved our stay in your little cottage. We were greeted to the most amazing welcome package and a basket full of logs for the log fire as well as having a beautiful Christmas tree sparkling in the corner. Kitchen was fully stocked of equipment, shower was amazing and the beds were so comfortable. Not far from the busy streets of York which we visited on Saturday but our favorite day was walking around Pocklington, we had lunch at the Wolds Cafe, absolutely delicious and found a gem of a shop called Dilly Dally which is full of treasures. We will most definitely return.
