  We had a thoroughly enjoyable week at number 25 , with our 2 spaniels .

  The gardens front and rear were totally enclosed which was brilliant. We have stayed in many places where they advertise the garden as being enclosed but in reality they are not which is a total disappointment. Because it was early March we couldn’t sit in the gardens, but the sunshine streamed into the kitchen and dining area and it was warm enough to have the patio doors open.The rear garden is secure , private and pristine. Also the front garden is raised and if it had been a little warmer we would have enjoyed a coffee with the view to Peasholm Park. On arrival there was a super welcome pack for us humans and treats for Zara and Bella our spaniels . Also 2 doggy fleeces, a towel and dog bowls to use during your stay. So many interesting walks from the doorstep….and the beach just a ten minute walk away. As you get to the beach there is Taylor’s bar and Kitchen. A super place, great staff, lovely food and dogs very welcome. Also a 2 minute walk from the house , an excellent fish & chip shop ,the tastiest ever . We can’t recommend number 25 highly enough and will definitely return. Many thanks for making our holiday perfect.

  A real, authentic cottage in a lovely village.

  I booked two long stays at Lena Cottage and enjoyed every minute of them. It has the feel of a genuine 'lived in', homely cottage, almost like a trip back in time. Yes, the steps were steep and the treads a little shallow but that was all part of the charm and just required a bit of extra care. The cottage had all the facilities needed for a 'get away from it all' holiday break and the village of Kilham, with its renowned pub and hill top church, was charming without being in any way contrived. The pub is a rare, surviving example of a classic English village pub, comprising several small rooms with open fires, friendly locals, great beer and delicious food. There is a small garage and shop just round the corner from the cottage, which I found very handy for both petrol and basic supplies. Being only 9 miles from Bridlington, Lena Cottage makes an excellent base for exploring both the coast and the rolling hills of the Yorkshire Wolds. Jo, the owner, went out of her way to make us feel welcome and even provided Christmas trimmings to add the appropriate seasonal touch. I look forward to staying here again.

  The pictures dont do the justice of this stunning cottage.

  It locates in the owners farm and also has good access to coastal towns. The property itself is very spacious with a beautifully maintained garden. Its enclosed so our dog could wander freely without me checking him constantly. He went to front open space too where he interacted with the owners dogs and explored their barn. The views over the field was just breathtaking. My partner stood by the window upstairs hours daily reading and enjoying the scenery there. The horses were magnificent and my partner just fell in love with Max. The sheep had a funny character approaching me for a petting. They kept barrbarring until I noticed them and gave them some good attention. The owner was very helpful and offered us to use their tumble dryer as the weather was wet during our stay. We didnt find kitchen scissors and tongs but managed without them, so didnt bother to ask the owners. The only thing I would say is the washing machine door seals might need a change. But it doesnt stop us visiting again. All in all, this is a great accommodation. Well done Robert and Joanna for your effort put into it

  We loved our week at Lena Cottage.

  The listing warns that 'the property has low doorways and steep stairs'. Yes it does (I have the bruises to prove the first one!), but all things considered they were not even the slightest inconvenience. The off-street parking and rear porch/utility room were a boon - we could dump stuff there from straight from the car to avoid losing all the heat from the cottage itself. The 'larder fridge' was a bit of a disappointment. A fridge with at least a freezer compartment would have been useful, but we coped. The instructions on the wall next to the central heating controller were vague - they were the controller manufacturer's own and their own website was no better - but we worked it out in the end. Contradicting previous reviews, we found the sofas quite comfortable, and the beds likewise. Would we stay at Lena Cottage again? Absolutely, no hesitation at all. We have recommended it to friends and family. I just hope they don't choose a week when we want to stay again ourselves!

  Lena cottage was a lovely quaint place to stay.

  Exceptionally clean, every utensil in the kitchen you needed to cook a proper meal. Beds were comfortable, sofas were great to curl up on after a day of walking. The little extras, althou we didn’t need them as we took everything, are a great idea,Food and water bowl, toys, blankets and poo bags. So thoughtful of the owner to include these for our dog. Other extras washing up liquid, sponges, tea towels, enough cutlery for 6 if needed. And the little homely touches of pictures, ornaments, and extra throws were lovely. The garden area was great for buddy our German shepherd and he soon made it home from home. Yes the ceilings in the bedrooms are low but that adds to the character. The stairs are steep but there’s only 9 of them and within a day you are used to them. And both these things are noted in the cottage description. We loved everything about Lena cottage, the owner has excelled herself in making this a great home from home
