Three double bedrooms, all ground floor, ideal for those in our party who couldnât manage steps. We had a lovely weekend break, thank you!

The cottage was lovely and cosy and had everything we needed. The rooms were bright and airy with a lovely view of the courtyard. It is in an ideal location to visit most of the attractions in the area. There was a plentiful supply of logs/coal for the fire, which was great to come back to after a day of adventures. On arrival there was 6 fresh eggs and more if we had wanted them, we made pancakes and scrambled eggs. We would definitely recommend Wheelhouse cottage and can't wait to go back again.

The owner Sharon Steel was absolutely brilliant. She waited and supported me and my mum whilst waiting for thr ambulance to arrive. She then stayed with me at middlesborough hospital all night as I was away from home. What a w wonderful lady and human being. I couldn't have done it without her, now a friend for life
