The surrounding areas are great too, so close to the moors and to other interesting towns and villages. My dog loved exploring with me and the town is very dog friendly. The steam train does not run during the winter, but I'd certainly like to come back when it is running because the route looks spectacular. The cottage was comfortable and well equipped. Some minor repairs are required, especially the shower tray, as it has not been installed level and due to this, the water does not drain well enough and I was concerned that it would flood the floor, so I only used the bath. The tap in the kitchen was loose also, which made it difficult to use. I was worried about parking, but this wasn't difficult, I parked on the road but the pass to park in the nearby car park for free was great. Overall, it was a lovely week away.

It is well placed for local walks, restaurants and pubs. We enjoyed the log burner on chilly evenings, and a long soak in the bath after a walk. We had days out in Whitby, Scarborough and Filey which were easily reached from the cottage. A good base for holidays and the dog had a great time!
