It was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and extremely well equipped. The owners attention to detail was excellent. I noticed some previous comments about the tightness of the parking but was glad that I didn't let that put me off. There are in fact two options, one at the front of the property or inside the gate, we wanted a secure area for the dog so chose the former. It was fine! We had a call from the owner Jean a few days before who was very friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend this property and would stay here again should we return to the area.

York Moors. The parking permit for Scarborough town centre was very useful. Spiral staircase could be a problem for some but fine for us. As mentioned in other reviews, getting a car onto the drive isn't easy, but not a major problem as we had a small car. We stayed for ten days and the cottage was well equipped for longer stays.

Upon opening the door, we was greeted with a lovely sight, absolutely over the moon and the welcoming gift was a nice touch... Parking a little tight but luckily we only have a small car, all in all a great stay with pubs either side.
