Sleights is a stunning, traditional village located around five miles from Whitby. Sleights is one of the largest villages in country. Along the bottom of the village runs the River Esk, where many salmon can be seen leaping in the river. Salmon fishing permits can be obtained for anyone interested in trying their hand at fishing. The village has fantastic amenities including a shop, bakers, an award-winning butchers, pubs, church, village hall, fish and chip restaurant and a post office. It is a wonderful location for walks and is perfect for a family or couples holiday.

Reviews

The cottage is very clean and tidy. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed (we even cooked a Sunday roast). Although it's quite cosy there was still enough space for 2 adults and 2 young children. The location was perfect for us as we had planned to explore the coast and more inland North Yorkshire. Communication with the owner was brilliant and very helpful. There's a shop and a fish and chips within walking distance plus the fish and chips place does pizzas on a Monday. I would definitely recommend this place for a small family or couple.

Mr R,

The cottage was in an ideal location with Whitby only a 10-15 minute drive and Scarborough roughly 30 minutes away. We had a lovely stay in the cottage and the welcome pack was a lovely touch from the owners. A bus into Whitby runs past the cottage if you don't fancy driving. Robin Hoods Bay isn't too far away and Staithes within easy reach. Goathland were Heartbeat was filmed is worth a visit. We're looking forward to visiting the area again and Sleights is a brilliant location for visiting the surrounding areas.

Mrs O,

Lavender Cottage exceeded our expectations. Everything we needed and more was provided, including an amazing welcome pack. Thank you, it provided the perfect base for our short stay.

Miss S,

Good welcome pack. Lots of cleaning items provided also inc tinfoil for the grill. Very comfortable lounge and bedrooms. Included iron and hairdryer. Also my friend and I were able to work the TV. At a different place last year we couldn't do that with all the different remotes so didn't watch anything. A very cosy and relaxing place to stay. Thank you.

Mr Malcolm B,

We stayed at lavender cottage in Aug 2022 and found it a wonderful holiday cottage. It was extremely homely and very well equipped and clean . There us a gated drive we're we could leave our car safely away from the road . There's 2 pubs in easy walking distance and so is a small supermarket which is open until 10pm . There's a butchers and a homemade bakery and a fish and chip shop / restaurant also in easy walking distance. We definitely recommend this cottage
