Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviewers consistently mention the spotless condition of the cottage, highlighting its exceptional cleanliness and the care taken to maintain it. The property is often described as one of the cleanest guests have stayed in.
The cottage's location is praised for being quiet yet conveniently close to local amenities and attractions. It serves as a good base for visiting the North Yorkshire Moors and coast, with easy access to nearby towns and villages.
The majority of guests find the cottage comfortable, with special mentions of the comfy beds and homely feel. However, a few guests found the Chesterfield sofas uncomfortable, which slightly impacts the overall comfort score.
Facilities and maintenance are highly regarded, with the cottage being well-equipped for guests' needs. The abundance of kitchen utensils, books, and a well-prepared guide for local attractions are appreciated. The only minor issue raised is the lack of a garden and some maintenance needed for a window and a tin opener.
Guests frequently express gratitude for the thoughtful touches, such as welcome gifts of chocolates and cider, although it is politely noted that such gifts are not guaranteed. The attention to detail and provision of local information contribute to the high thoughtfulness score.
About this property
This pretty cottage sits among the peace and quiet of Irton on the outskirts of the village of Seamer; a characterful accommodation with an inviting welcome and charming feel. With tasteful décor and high-quality throughout, you will be delighted to base your family holiday here. The galley kitchen layout works well with the space, benefiting from lots of useful appliances and a breakfast bar. Just off from here lies a single room, an ideal little hideout for a child to get lost in their fun and games. Step across the hall to find a lovely, spacious double with a feature fireplace adding character to a bright and airy room. Stroll on to the sitting room which exudes bags of charm and elegance with plush leather sofas and distinctive furnishings; sit and enjoy a read of the morning news or enjoy a good film together in front of the open fire. The high ceilings really open up the room and the grand mirror above the fireplace adds class and style. At the side and back is an elegant driveway and small patio area lined with quaint details and beautiful plant pots. This property is ideally located near the village of Seamer which hosts an array of local shops, a few pubs and restaurants. Scarborough, the vibrant seaside town, sits four miles away, providing its North and South Bay with stunning stretches of golden sandy beaches, the Stephen Joseph Theatre, Scarborough Castle and coastal walks along the Cleveland Way. This is the ideal place for a relaxing week.

This place has everything you need for an enjoyable stay in a nice quiet area. The cottage is within easy driving distance of Scarborough and is ideal for anyone looking for a holiday that is quiet, but within easy reach of Scarborough and the fabulous North Yorkshire moors. Definitely value for money and this is our third visit and yes we will be returning Mat, Nat and Oliver

We have stayed in dozens of cottages over the years and this is certainly among the best. The fish and chip shop in Seamer is outstanding - light, non-greasy, crisp batter; firm, fresh fish; light and fluffy chips

We would love to re book and come again next year! The property had everything we needed and the location was perfect for exploring the local area. Seamer had all the services we needed and the local shop was amazing. Thank you for a lovely stay.
