"We have just returned from our first UK holiday for many years and our very first holiday cottage rental ever. Mill Cottage was our holiday choice and what a good choice we made. The cottage was very spacious, well appointed, with everything you would want in a holiday cottage. A well presented secure garden was ideal for us and our dog, with plenty of seating and a sunny aspect. We could not fault the cottage, the owner lives close and we found them very helpful and friendly, not forgetting the "free range eggs he supplied. The village has a shop, butchers, fish & chip take away, restaurant and two pubs both serving food, so again most things you would want close by. Good roads provided easy access to coastal villages and with Whitby just a 10 min drive away and Scarborough only another 30 mins. Also easy travel to the wonderful North Yorkshire Moors, an area of outstanding scenery. If for a change you decide to catch the bus you will find a good service to Whitby to the south and Saltburn, Redcar and Middlesbrough to the north. Well sign posted walks are also close to hand, cliff top walks to Staithes and Runswick are ideal and easy to manage. We hope to return next year, sorry we will return next year, FIRST CLASS"

"We spent a gerat week in this lovely apartment with my husband and 2 young children. The apartment is spacious ( with a good amount of storage space) with great facilities. DVD.s and games made the children feel at home, and the beds were very comfy. Lovely bathroom with roll top bath and seperate shower. This apartment is really central - just a couple of minutes from the cliff lift ( we hired a beach hut which I'd recommend doing if you intend to spend time down at the beach), and within very easy reach of town. It has great views ( the sea from the bay windows in the lounge and a bedroom, and of the abbey ruins from the kitchen), and was lovely and quiet. It comes with a parking permit for the West Cliff car park which is just a stones throw away. It has pacious bedrooms and open plan lounge/kitchen/dining area. A great place to come"

"The idyllic location of the cottage, set in open countryside yet with easy access for exploration, made this cottage a really pleasant place to stay. The quality of the fixtures, fittings, and décor are a complete credit to the owners, blending luxurious contemporary state of the art with a classic country cottage feel, a mix that has been perfectly achieved without compromise and to a high standard. The owners have ensured that more than adequate local information is provided to fill every day with planned activity if desired. Or, the peacefully secluded location allows for total relaxation with only the occasional welcomed visit from Anna (one of the owners horses) into the field directly next to the cottage itself."

"The location was amazing- within spitting distance of the NYMR - simply brilliant, it gave the holiday a very special and unique feel to it. Therewere miles of open space all around us, no phone signal and no WiFi- even with 2 teenagers, this was the perfect place for a break away from the stresses of everyday life. The walking was gorgeous. The garden was great for our very lively cocker pup - entirely enclosed. We loved Goathland- just 5 minutes away by car. We found the local people very welcoming even though they must be used to truck loads of tourists. We felt a real sense of loss as we drove away on our last morning....Orchard Cottage was one of the very best holidays we've had. Fantastic place."

"This is a lovely apartment, we stayed for a week my husband and our two grown up children. Plenty of space to relax and a short walk to the beach and town centre. The apartment has two good sized doubles and a small single room. The open plan lounge kitchen diner is a light comfortable room and great place to relax and watch the world go by. What would I add to this apartment, perhaps a dishwasher and more information about the apartment itself not just the appliances. But that does not distract from the lovely week we have had here in Whitby and I happily recommend this as a place to stay."
