Reviews

"Willow Cottage" was a real home from home, with the owner there to greet us and offer a welcome pack, always an appreciated special gesture! We discovered it was a great base from which we could enjoy our week in North Yorkshire. The cottage was beautifully warm, (there in March) and with 3 bedrooms, all en-suite, it was ideal for 2 to 6 visitors. Our 2 retriever dogs also found it comfortable and settled in easily. There was plenty of hot water, and the downstairs wet-room shower was splendid. It was great to have that downstairs bedroom, and we can definitely recommend the comfortable bed. There were just 2 of us staying, but the other bedrooms, upstairs, looked to have that lovely feeling of being in a traditional cottage. We can't vouch for the beds or bathrooms as they were not used. The location was excellent, being very near to the atmospheric coastal village, Staithes, and the lovely beaches of Skinningrove and Runswick Bay, both excellent for the dogs at low tide times. It was also within easy distance of Whitby and its famous Abbey, and not too far from Rievaulx Abbey, should you like that kind of thing. Coast and country were there in abundance to enjoy. We would highly recommend "Willow Cottage" and all it has to offer.
