The cottage offers a large space for family of different generations to share whilst also giving good separation at times. The kitchen is well equipped and means eating at home is easy. The garden area is lovely and there are many games for the family to play. The history of the cottage is really interesting and there are lots of rooms to enjoy.

Great place for children. The cottage is comfortable but you are not worried about things getting broken.

This property is big enough to accommodate ten people. The village of Hunmanby is nice with a few small shops. A supermarket can be found in Filey, which is only a few miles away. There is good outdoor space for sitting/ eating.

Quirky old farmhouse with lots of nooks and crannies. Comfortable, clean and warm. Plenty of space for our large family group. Local amenities within a few hundred yards- pubs shops ect. You can see the sea from 2 bedrooms. 3 miles to Filey. There is even a walk over the fields into the town that is around 2 miles.

House is delightfully old fashioned, attractive and quirky and suited our large family party well. Garden was lovely but because of poor weather we were not out there much. The house was a pleasant place to be when it was raining! Very good car parking arrangements. Access to village and local shops was excellent.

Castle Farm House is spacious, well-equipped and comfortable. Hunmanby is a nice location. The Co-Op is open 7 days per week from 7 am to 10 pm. It stocks everything that one is likely to need. Other shops include a cafe, hardware store, butcher and fish & chip shop, plus several pubs. The hourly double-decker bus service 12 via Filey to ScarborougRead moreh and to Bridlington via Reighton is very useful for visits without a car to towns and as coastal walking links. There's an hourly train service too. Hide

House and Garden are beautiful comfortable and homely with lots of space. Bathrooms downstairs could do with an update but this didn't spoil our holiday. Good location for visiting other places. Village has a good selection of shops and pubs close by and local people are so friendly. We would recommend to friends.
