Reviews
"Pleasant and peaceful stay. Cottage was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Owners very friendly and on site. Club house very welcoming and serves lovely food at extremely reasonable prices. We will return."
"Met on arrival and everything was explained that we needed to know for our comfort. Very clean and in a lovely quiet location for pleasant walks for us and the dog."
"The owners were on site and couldn't have been more obliging. The cottage was very clean,attractive and warm, ideally situated for all kinds of places to visit. Would definitely recommend it."
"we arranged to stay in this cottage through Sykes cottages and was asked to telephone the owner 48hrs prior to our arrival for the key arrangements and this we did he told my wife to call again 20 mins before we arrived which we did only the call went to voice mail. We arrived and the owner had still not returned our call but as we pulled up in front of the cottage a young woman appeared and gave us the keys. Next door the cottage was occupied by the owners daughter who informed us that they had a flood a few weeks earlier and the main road in and out was blocked off and the only road in and out was up and down a 1 in 4 hill which was in places not wide enough for two cars to pass. This we had found out when we arrived to see the road diversion signs. No one from Sykes cottages had bothered to inform us of the floods. We arrived on a Friday and the weekend passed uneventful but we did notice how damp the cottage felt. The kitchen was very dark and you had to have the light on almost all the time you were in there. The cottage itself was quite nice and we were visiting the surrounding area. Then came Sunday night we were woken by the noise next door as our bedroom backed onto their bathroom and they had a bedroom above their lounge. 6am we were woken again and could not go back to sleep with the noise and at 7.30am eventually got up. The next night and morning was a repeat again we were up at just after 7 am . We were both fed up with the noise so decided to cut short our holiday and go home."
"We stayed here over New Year and really enjoyed our stay. There were plenty of walks to go on and it wasn't far from the beach at all! the Staff were very informative and friendly and if you dont want to take your car,the bus stop is right outside.Our only gripe was the shower :-( it wasnt very powerful and if you were using the washing machine or sink water,then the flow and temperature of the shower was affected. Other than that we would happily stay there again :-) Thank you for a warm and welcoming stay!"
"Original holiday "pulled" from under our feet six weeks before holiday date. Hastily found this little gem. If you`re looking for a quiet,tanqill relaxing break then look no further. What a lovely place to stay. A home away from home with everything you would possibly need inside this delightful converted pit pony stables. 5 minute walk into the village of Skinningrove, a bit further to the beach. Great central place to visit Redcar,Saltburn, Whitby and many other places. A local bus stopped outside the gravelled driveway (although not used by us a very frequent service ) Owners family lived in the cottage next door so always on hand if we needed anything. Large folder on hall stand had brochures,pamphlets for all local attractions plus instructions on how to use all appliances inside the cottage. Liked it so much within 4 days of coming home booked again for next year, a thing we have never done before"

"This spotless new-build cottage is in the village of Skinningrove, with the Mining Museum a 3 minute walk away, and the beach a leisurely 10 minute stroll down the road. A lot of thought has gone into the decor and the furnishings, and the comfort of the guests, and it shows. The 32" Freeview TV, the high-backed dining chairs, and the washer/dryer in the kitchen tell you that your hosts Geoff & Val have thought of those little things that make your stay so enjoyable. And the "Welcome Pack"? Deliciously thoughtful! This corner of North Yorkshire is a visitor's delight, from the incredible beach at Saltburn-by-the-Sea, to Rievaulx Abbey and Helmsley, to the wonderful Ryedale Folk Museum in Hutton-le-Hole, and the lovely welcoming town of Guisborough. The weather was incredibly kind to us (a high of 27"), and an after-dinner drink sitting outside the cottage watching the sun go down, was the perfect topping to some great days. Geoff & Val, along with Kelly & Steve, and Joanna, made us feel so welcome and at home, we felt almost like part of the family. Many, many thanks to all of them. Any downside? Only one. The cottage was booked the week before and the week after our visit, and sadly we had to return home after only 7 nights!"
"Beautiful,comfortable accomodation that is better than any hotel.Great for visiting the area with the Cleveland Way just 5 mins away. Beaches,towns and moors all accessible. If you dont have a car this is ideal as public transport is readily available ( the bus stops outside).Walking, lazing and touring all in a cottage that is more home than home.The owners provide eveything you need not just the basics. Nice to have a proper freezer and all cleaning materials, not just those previous occupants have left.Would go back in an instant."
"The cottage was clean and the owners great nothing was too much trouble. A bus stop out side the cottage came evry 15mins. Good beach, local shop was great and helpfull. The local fish and chip shop was the best ever. I would recomend this venue to any one. I think a club house was talked about this would be great."
"Set in a small village with very friendly locals this cottage had everything you need for a comfortable stay. Although there was a pub within walking distance, it only did food on Sundays. There was nowhere within walking distance to eat out so take provisions for your first night!The welcome bottle of wine and chocolates was an unexpected surprise and very kind. Excellent spot for hikers."
"we had a very enjoyable stay ideal for getting to other locations along the coast very helpful owners clean and comfortable"
"very good value, comfortable,with friendly check in , close to the beach easy walk, with plenty to do with the dog."
"Don't be put off Skinningrove by the 'Britains Hardest Villages' hype. Despite the menacing graffiti on the jetty we had a good time and the people who own the cottage were very helpful. The cottage was generously laid out for a couple and well equipped, especially in the kitchen. where a lot fall down. Great base for the North York Moors, the coast and the RSPB reserve at Saltholme in Middlesborough. Would definitely visit again."
"We really booked this as late as could be,and the help and service we got was very good when booking .Directions etc were ok ,found it and were really surprised at how well we were greeted and looked after ,it was excellent ,the place was very very good and was just the quiet place we were looking for , many thanks to the owners for making us very welcome. If you go down to the bottom of the village walk left along the path to the beach you will get an excellent large lovely empty beach,to us that is all we wanted,not far from the beach at Saltburn by the sea,with its pier and clifftop setting. Lovely large shopping in middlesbourough etc"
