Note: Only one medium sized well behaved pet permitted.
Note: Generous parking area for 3/4 vehicles.
Please Note: A luxury housing development is located to the right side of the house. This will not however obstruct the fantastic views of the Yorkshire countryside, towards Stainsacre.
We enjoyed the holiday other than the weather could have been better, beds comfy and facilities good although better lighting in the dining and living areas would have been good as we struggled to read and play board games in the evening.
Could have done with more saucepans and oven trays as i struggled to make an evening meal for 7 people with those provided and the large oven tin provided doesn't fit in the oven.

Just need a name on the cottage as took a while to find it and signs nearer the property too - could do with some outdoor seating apart from that was really good and as advertised. Plenty of space and we enjoyed our week thank you.
Story
Fairly spacious property but cleanliness was lacking in some areas and we reported several maintenance issues to Yorkshire CC on leaving.
Dark woodwork and inadequate lighting combine to give a dismal atmosphere in the kitchen, dining-room and lounge - would benefit from some white paint !
Visitors would need a potholers headset to read anything after dusk...
We arrived to find bins full, with recycling stuff in the wrong one, and 2 full black bags sitting on top - reported to YCC but they failed to make anything happen before the end of our week so we had to visit the Council tip with the rubbish ourselves to sort things out.
Mr Wright
Very comfortable and well equipped cottage. Dog friendly with a lovely back garden.
Cliffords Party
There is a fantastic amount of living space for a large family; we were impressed by the cafe at Ruswarp, next to the river. We had both coffee and dinner, both of which were fantastic. We have been very impressed with Yorkshire Coastal Cottages and the welcome pack was lovely. Thank you for an enjoyable stay.
Benson Family
Good location. Cottage a great size and well equipped. We enjoyed the steam train ride to Goathland and visiting Scarborough and Filey.
Gaynor Party
Had a great week in Whitby; Dovecote Cottage is spacious, plenty of storage and we loved the garden - it's a good base for exploring. We have been to Whitby beach, the Captain Cook Museum and Scarborough. We also visited Sandsend. We can recommend Silver Street Fisheries for the fish and chips plus the Forge at Aislaby for some amazing pub food! All the family have enjoyed our holiday.
