Reviews
"Stayed here over New Year. Absolutly loved it. So cozy but with every mod con. Fully equipped kitchen, modern shower room, central heating & log burner. Set on riverbank, lovely to open curtains in a morning and watch the wildlife( yes, there are regular visits from seals!) Ample garden & parking, dog friendly too. Excellant location in village, dog friendly pub two minute walk over the bridge. Fab butchers & small shop too. Easy walks into Whitby, nice to leave the car parked up & wander around Whitby. Really good base for visiting the area & quiet peaceful surroundings to return to. Cottage spotless on arrival & lots of information provided for guests. All in all, a special place to stay. We will be back!"
"We stayed at Waterloo Cottage annexe with our Welsh Terrier Rhia. She absolutely loved the garden chasing the ducks. The cottage has everything you need and in a great location right on the river. Watched fish jumping while having breakfast. 11/2 miles into Whitby along the rail track which, is a nice easy walk. Cinder track walk also accessible from cottage. Pub at end of Bridge dog friendly, with good food. Quite a busy road past cottage but shouldn't detract from a nice stay."
"Waterloo Cottage Annexe is an absolute wonderful dream of a cottage! We travelled from Cheshire by train alighting at Ruswarp (Or Russop! As we were told it was pronounced by the locals) Station just across the river which was short walk over the bridge to the cottage - fantastic! The cottage had everything! Everything you could possibly need was there, and everything was of a very high standard. It was beautifully clean, and decorated in a pleasant and peaceful manner. We were amazed when we entered to discover that it was like The Tardis of Dr. Who! It appeared small and neat from the outside, but inside it was very large. The lounge is large enough to accommodate large round dining table and four very comfy dining chairs as well as two comfy sofas one which converts to the extra bed. There is an extra bonus of a conservatory with comfortable chairs and a table where we ate our breakfast every day enabling us to watch wildlife or the occasional canoeists. It was wonderful seeing the Kingfishers glinting in the sun and the ducks were fun to watch as they made a bee-line across to the cottage every time you walked out on the garden or patio expecting a feed! There were lovely easy walks into Whitby from the cottage and were easy enough for us two oldies (75 & 85) to enjoy! There was a choice of buses from Whitby up and down the coast. All in all, it was a wonderful holiday in a wonderful cottage and also, for which we were grateful - Wonderful weather! Although I think we would have enjoyed ourselves just as much anyway in such delightful surroundings! A very big 'Thank you!' to Nicola and Dave for making us so very welcome and also Jill who kept the place pristine!"
"I visited this cottage with my 6 year old daughter and apart from a couple of niggling things enjoyed every minute. It's position is fantastic, garden is lovely and the cottage itself is well equipped and an excellent place to explore North Yorkshire from. The steam trains can be seen across the river and the river itself has many ducks, swans, cormorants plus a seal apparently. My daughter loved feeding the ducks every morning and night, there is no fence between the garden and the river but this is noted in the details but I think it would spoil the garden doing this so just have to keep an eye on youngsters as it is a steep drop. Ruswarp itself is lovely, we have been to North Yorkshire many times but not here before, the steam train from Goathland to Whitby is as good as ever, plenty to entertain children with Monks Farm and Playdale being particular favourites for my daughter. We visited the new aqua park in Scarborough, slides aren't really suitable for young children but worth a visit but expect it to be expensive with parking and extra charges if you stay over 4 hours. The niggling things were the TV volume shot up and down depending which channel you were watching plus it would have been nice to have some control over the heating.....being next to a river and the week was mixed so first thing in the morning my daughter said she was cold but apart from that it was brilliant and I would fully recommend it......we have already booked for next year so I had better start collecting that bread for the ducks!"
"Never have I found such a gem of a cottage. It was so well equipped, comfy and wwelcoming I almost cried on leaving. The wildlife was amazing,sitting in bed watching the kingfisher darting up the river was a real bonus. The log burner was fantastic at this time of year, the welcome pack of logs, wine and chocolates was a lovely touch. Can't wait to book again,"
"absolutely blissful. ideal for Whitby Scarborough Pickering, Sleights in fact anywhere on this stretch of coast.the setting is beautiful right on the very shores of the Esk with sheep fields opposite and ducks and ravens in the garden."
"What a find, its a dream of a place. Lovely comfortable cottage with views to die for. It is set right on the river bank, when you are inside you feel as thoughyou are on a boat. The garden is part of the river bank fenced off, where you can sit and watch the great wild life, we saw the seal every day and herons , swans etc. Ruswarp is a lovely village with a good food pub which is dog friendly.On the other side of the river is a footpath which is one and a half miles to whitby."
"I have stayed in many holiday homes in many parts of the UK but have to say that Waterloo annexe is up there with the best.Delightful setting by the river and perfect for walks and day visits.My wife and I tried to think of some amenity the home didn't have but failed."
"the cottage is very well equipped comfortable and cosy. excellent location easy to get to whitby great butchers and very tranquil settings."
"Stayed in waterloo cottage for a week in early March.Not disappointed with the location or the amenities,lovely riverside location and the cottage had everything we needed for our stay.Have stayed in Ruswarp before, but,this cottage far exceeded the others,would definitely recommend this cottage for a a holiday."
"The cottage felt more like our home than a rental cottage and all the lovely small touches had been thought of; firewood for log burner (gas heating excellent)& firelighter kits,tea lights,binoculars & bird books, all "extra's" for kitchen etc. Weather was not good enough to take advantage of the lovely riverside garden and to use the sun room much but with 2 large windows in the lounge overlooking the picturesque river we were very happy just to sit and enjoy!"
"This is the most wonderful place to stay, both the cottage and the village were amazing.We loved Ruswarp it is the most pretty village and to be able to stay there was a privelidge.The cottage was the most beautiful i've had the pleasure to visit, being on the river esk made it just perfect...thank you to all concerned for a really good week."
"We traveled as a family of 3, my husband, our 10 year old daughter and myself plus our 6 month old labrador logan!. The booking was so smooth, the owner was a lovely lady, very helpful. This place has the WOW factor, right on the river esk, large garden for pets and parking, When we arrived the heating had been left on for our arrival, which was lovely as it has been a little nippy, we had wood waiting for us so we could light the stove as soon as we got in, lovely as we had brought our own from home but didn't need to. The place was spotless, not to mention the most well equipt place we have ever stayed, there was even washing up liquid, dish washer tabs and wash powder if we needed it and more plates, cups and glasses than u can shake a stick at. The bedroom was lovely, roomy with a nice comfy bed, views to die for, the sofa bed was very comfy, our daughter loved having a double bed all to herself. we had all mod cons and we took our wii which kept us all entertained. The little porch is great for sitting and watching the world and wildlife go past. We even got to see the seal that lives in the river!! The pub just at the bottom of blue bank in slights does lovely food and real ales, not to mention the pub not 5 mins walk over the bridge from the cottage, there's also a butchers in slights as well as the one in Runswarp it's self. Your only 2 mins drive from Whitby, and there's loads of lovely walks for all the family. So all in all we had the best 3 nights and really didn't want to leave and looking at the guest book everyone that has stayed here is of the same opinion. Please go visit waterloo cottage annexe amazing place at a fab price."
"Me and my husband are in our early 30's and spent a week at Waterloo Cottage in November 2012, it was lovely, comfy, clean , modern and had everything you could want !! home from home. The location is excellent as the cottage is right on the river bank, the first night we arrived we were lucky enough to see the local seal ! We thought for a weeks stay the cottage was great value for money and I would defiantly recommend a stay here. On the site it states the cottage sleeps 4 however there is only one bedroom the sofa in the living room turns in to a bed not really idea for families but great for couples !! There is no parking at the side of the house as the house is directly on the road with only a small footpath. To park you have to open the garden gates and park on the garden in the cottage grounds you just have to be careful when entering and leaving as its poor visibility. The owner is lovely to she rang to give us information before our stay and told us we could ring her if we needed any further information . All in all I would defiantly recommend the cottage perfect week for either relaxing , walking or driving round North Yorkshire taking in the views and sight seeing."
"We stayed at Waterloo Cottage annexe for 2 weeks in June and had a great time. The location was perfect for us, lots of private space, great views and plenty of wildlife, including 2 young seals frolicking in the water a few metres from the cottage. Plenty of good walks in the area and a lovely shortish walk into Whitby. If you plan your route you can have a longish outward walk and catch the train back. A trip to Sleights is well worth it. The accomodation is spacious for 2, and very tastefully furnished and equipped, all comforts provided, including the lovely bed! As it was quite wet some days, we really appreciated the small 'conservatory' - sufficient space to sit down and take off dripping kagouls and muddy walking boots. We take regular cottage holidays and would highly recommend this cottage"
