Guests say
Fitling Cottage offers a tranquil rural retreat near Hull, ideal for those seeking peace and quiet. Guests appreciate the comfortable amenities, including a large bed, and the friendly, helpful host. While some find the location isolated and the Wi-Fi lacking, the cottage's cleanliness and proximity to the coast are well-regarded.
The cottage is generally described as clean, with one review noting it could have been cleaner. The majority of feedback, however, highlights the property's cleanliness positively.
The location is appreciated for its tranquility and rural setting. However, one review mentions a discrepancy in the distance to the coast and a lack of nearby amenities, leading to a slightly above average score.
Comfort is a strong point for Fitling Cottage, with multiple reviews praising the large and comfortable bed. A suggestion for blackout curtains and a comment on a saggy settee slightly temper the otherwise positive feedback.
Facilities are mentioned in terms of equipment and Wi-Fi, but there is insufficient detail to fully assess maintenance. The Wi-Fi is noted as not good, but other facilities seem adequate. Without more information, a score cannot be provided.
There are no mentions of gifts or special thoughtful touches by the host in the reviews provided. Therefore, while the host is noted as friendly and approachable, a score cannot be given for thoughtfulness.

Fitling cottage is in a very rural area, perfect for peace and quiet. Comfortable, lovely huge bed, well equipped and very clean. Within easy driving distance to East Coast or Hull. The owner lives on site and is an excellent hist, approachable, helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend.

Location of the cottage was very isolated. The description advised was false ,the cottage was about 6 miles from the coast but was advised at about 3 to 4 .There is no pub or restaurant as advised it is a cafe with a licence to sell beer which has limited opening hours.The closest pub is 3 miles away.The accommodation was very dark and could have been cleaner.The outside area was small and again could have been tidier.
