The cottage generally receives positive remarks for cleanliness, with most guests finding it clean and tidy. However, there are isolated complaints about specific areas not being up to standard, suggesting occasional lapses in thoroughness.
The location is frequently praised for its proximity to local attractions and the convenience of a nearby pub. The village's quiet and pretty setting is also appreciated, contributing to a positive experience.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the living areas cosy, although there are some remarks about a squeaky bunk bed and an uncomfortable second mattress. Overall, the cottage provides a comfortable stay.

It is a great base to visit all surrounding areas and places of interest. However disappointingly the cottage was not has clean has we would have liked, but after an nine hour journey we just needed to get settled in, so set to sort out so me of the issues ourselves. The floor near kitchen bin was dirty, with spills etc. The cooker top, and grill had to be cleaned before use, these were left dirty with food spills and grease. There was food left in the freezer and all the drawers were dirty with crumbs etc. again we washed out to store our own food. The Fridge itself needed cleaning before use, with four eggs left in. There was far too much dust around, it was evedent that it had obviously accumulated over several weeks not just one. A serious issues was the light switch in bathroom was left with no cover, "this can be dangerous especially where there is steam and water", the extractor fan in bathroom was in a terrible state with months of dirt and dust. The loo roll holder was hanging on until the second night when it fell onto floor during the night. The outside dustbins were already filled when we arrived so we struggled to dispose of our own rubbish. We fully understand that during the winter months bookings may not be weekly but housekeeping checks should be done before all guests arrive.

Upstairs living room very comfortable. Use wifi code for Origin unit, not router. Bedrooms and shower room are off a dark corridor, via two sets of stone steps. Bunk bedroom very dark and would benefit from brighter ceiling light. Info about local restaurants would be useful and update re local shop, as (unless I missed it!) there isnât one in 1.5 miles. Nearest grocery shops are either at Thornton Dale, 4+ miles away with tricky parking, or 6+ miles away at East Ayton in Spar/garage. After reading previous reviews, I parked on road in front of cottage.
