“Parking and access is not mentioned but is not easy.”
Don’t bring a big car or attempt to park close if you are not confident at reversing. There is also a very rude man at no.11 who does not help and seems to dislike visitors. The helpful neighbours next door told us we could use the NYMR car park overnight but strictly speaking we shouldn’t have. Access is not great on foot from the Main Street if you are not steady on your feet and I wouldn’t recommend to anyone who isn’t. The promised welcome pack was not provided.
But...the house is very comfortable and the position overlooking the river really good, also excellent for train spotters! Overall would recommend but perhaps a more full description of access would be helpful.
Firstly, may I apologise for not replying to you sooner. We appreciate that the parking isn’t the easiest but didn’t think to mention that, we have now addressed this and give clear information regarding the parking on the website, thank you for your input. We are sorry for the bad experience you had with a neighbour, this has never happened before and obviously out of our control. I hope the helpful neighbours on the other side made up for this? Regarding the access by foot to the main street, I agree that the cut through access nearest to the cottage is quite steep and cobbled, however, there is another way just 1 minute further which I believe is a gentle, easily manageable walk for all ages and abilities. Unfortunately the welcome packs have not been provided due to covid-19 for the safety of staff and guests. I apologise if you were not made aware of this. The cost of the welcome pack is fully met by the cottage owner and is not added to the price of your holiday. I am pleased to hear, that although you experienced a few issues, you enjoyed the cottage itself and would recommend it to others. Many thanks Sharon & Craig, Esk View owners
