A beautifully furnished cottage and extremely well equipped. Warm and cosy, with a sheltered garden ideal for a windy day! A delight to spend time there.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The cottage was better than expected and well maintained. All the personalised decorations demonstrated how well taken care of the cottage is. We really appreciated the bottle of wine left for us and our dog enjoyed sun bathing on the dog bed in the garden. The kitchen had everything you could need and we were left Read morewith plenty of towels and dishcloths. Redcar was a great spot for our break. The cottage was a short 5 minute walk from the beach which was beautiful but for being so close, the street was still really quiet. We also had day trips to Scarborough (1hr 15mins) and Whitby (45mins away) which the cottage was well placed for. We highly recommend this cottage and would stay again. Hide

Fantastic cottage with plenty equipment and goods to meet all your needs. Lots of quirky interior design features that were very interesting. Welcome pack and bottle of wine was a lovely gesture on arrival. Situated on the edge of Redcar which is sadly in need of some local regeneration ( like most towns) however beautiful beaches on your doorstRead moreep,dog friendly. Excellent for trips to Saltburn, Kettleness for fossils , Staithes and Whitby. Hartlepool royal navy museum and marina is a short drive. Nearby villages of Yarm ,Guisborough and Stokesly for markets all available. Main town of Middlesbrough just down the road for shopping. All in all a lovely cottage, close to lots of things to do at every level. Hide
