La Fenetre Holiday Cottage
We had a fantastic stay at Tim’s place! The location was perfect – just around the corner from local amenities and right in the heart of town. It was also only about 10 minutes to the forest and around 30 minutes to Whitby, which made day trips really easy. The hot tub was spotless and ready to use as soon as we arrived, and we were greeted with a lovely bottle of Prosecco – such a thoughtful touch. Tim was an incredibly responsive and understanding host throughout our stay. We’ll definitely be back in the future

3 Railway Cottage Pickering , Hot Tub, Pets all'd
3 Railway Cottage is a fantastic base to explore the amazing beauty of North Yorkshire. The cottage is located a 20 minute walk from the centre of Pickering but is in a really quiet and private location. The only exception of course is the opportunity to wave at the heritage railway trains that pass at the back of the cottage a few times a day which is really amazing, especially if you wave from the comfort of the hot tub! I can’t recommend this location highly enough, it is a really comfortable and well equipped cottage in a fantastic location - what more could you ask for?

Rambling Rose Cottage, near Staithes
had a brilliant stay in this lovely little cottage. Nice and clean. Great hot tub and a good base location to explore various places along the coast. would recommend.

Orchard House Rosedale Abbey
Lovely cottage in a great location. Walking the surrounding area from the house was great and very near to a pub and tearoom which both served great food. The hot tub was an added bonus!

Hazel Cottage nestled twixt coast and Moorland
We had a wonderful stay in this lovely holiday home which is in a stunning location overlooking Robin Hoods Bay. It really was an unbeatable location. Steve was a fantastic host, giving us all the information we needed about the property and location. He also left us some welcome extras in the fridge 😊 The property was clean and well presented, and the hot tub and snooker room were enjoyable extras. We would happily return to this beautiful, peaceful spot in the future.

Harwood Cottage, A Cosy 1 Bed Cottage
Really enjoyable stay. Everything was perfect, and I would return if I were back in the area. The location was peaceful, private, and surrounded by beautiful nature — exactly what I was hoping for. The space was spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully designed, with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable and relaxing getaway.

The Old Potting Shed - 2 bed cottage with hot tub
We had the most beautiful stay — the cottage was peaceful, private, and instantly felt like home. Everything was spotless and smelt amazing, with such a lovely, calming vibe throughout. The decor was gorgeous, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. The hot tub was the perfect finishing touch for a truly relaxing weekend. The hosts went above and beyond with thoughtful details like fresh eggs in the morning and chocolates waiting for us on arrival. Communication was smooth and friendly from start to finish. You can really feel the care and effort put into every part of the stay. I’d absolutely recommend this place — it’s a little gem, and I’d love to return!

Sycamore Cottage, Falling Foss waterfalls.
Great little cottage. Stayed this weekend for my birthday, excellent location for exploring the Yorkshire coast and moors. The cottage was spotlessly clean and Cara is friendly and responsive. You would after be very picky to find fault with this place and will definitely be returning. Thanks again Cara. Craig 👏

Hilda Cottage, bottom of Robin Hoods Bay!
We've thoroughly enjoyed our 3 nights at Hilda Cottage. Such a unique and quaint place to stay, The cottage was very comfortable and accommodating for all our needs. We enjoyed the little quirks like the basket of games, and lots of lovely things to look at around the cottage. The location is perfect, very close to everything Robin Hoods bay has to offer. We would absolutely recommend staying here. Best wishes Vicki & Garry

Wheelhouse,Grinklebell Cottage
I was looking for some relaxing peaceful time away, and Linda’s place delivered! It was stunning, especially being able to sit and watch the sunset in the summerhouse with my dog. Linda made sure to come and say hello, and to make sure everything was ok - which was lovely. We had a great time and will hopefully be back soon. Thank you

Charlotte Cottage
Lovely location .just as described relly enjoyed stay

Spacious character historic cottage
Had a fabulous stay in lovely place. Brilliant location for travelling to other places. The house is situated a few mins walking distance out of the town centre, castle and Museum. We had a few stop offs at the Sun Inn on our way back and enjoyed the atmosphere. The house is well equipped and clean. We loved the main living room with its open beams and ceiling. Gill was always available and very helpful 😊

Saltburn l The Outlook- Sea views, Dog friendly.
We had an amazing week it was perfect for the dogs straight out to the Valley Gardens and a good sized, secure garden. Amenities were close to hand including train station and bus stops we didn’t use the car all week. Stunning walks and friendly bars and cafes. The Outlook was an amazing property we can’t recommend it enough. Also check out the spa hotel 🥹

Cargate Cottage
We loved our stay here as a family with two young children (toddler and under 1) and a dog. The location was perfect, with a short nip up the hill into town and so close to the beach. The house had everything we needed - Joe & Sarah made it very comfortable for us and easy to travel by providing a high chair and travel cot. Parking on the road (in June) was easy during the week, had to wait a little longer for a space close by at the weekend (but we always managed to get one). We hope to return when we visit Filey again.

Picturesque Cottage in Stonegate, Lealholm
It was a beautiful little home and we are so pleased we got the chance to stay there, really private with great views. The garden was enclosed so it was good to be allowed to let the dog out into the garden without a worry. It was really central so we could get to a lot of places and it really felt like home. 🩷

Forge Cottage - cosy beach cottage
Very pleasant stay in Robin Hood bay. Idealistic location, perfect for couples with a pet. Beach is only a few minutes walk away & several places to eat & drink.

Saltwater-Beautiful, cosy old fisherman's cottage
Saltwater cottage was absolutely fantastic! In the perfect spot near the harbour, it’s literally steps away from the best spot to watch the sun going down over the beautiful cliffs surrounding a Staithes. The cottage was squeaky clean and had everything we needed for a fab stay. Bed was super comfy and cosy shower was perfect and living room lovely to sit with a glass of wine. We ate in the Cod & Lobster and the Royal George both were great. Lovely cliff walk to Runswick Bay is also recommended. Staithes is a really stunning village and we’ll definitely be back to stay at Saltwater cottage!

Luxury Old Stone Cottage, Beautifully Presented
Beautiful cottage in a great location for walking and visiting castles and national trust places. Would definitely recommend.

The Den, beautiful 2-bedroom Cottage
Lisa’s sweet cottage is a world away from the world in a spectacular rural village. The trails in the local area lead to other spectacular places of scenic charm and beauty. Lisa is a lovely, welcoming host with a talent for providing comfortable accommodation with an artful flair. Our stay will be a cherished memory!

Romantic Cottage with Hot Tub & Countryside Views
One of the best Airbnb cottages we have stayed in…recently decorated, tasteful furnishings, lovely gardens and everything we needed for our stay. It is a 30min walk into town, but is a flat walk along the old railway track so an easy stroll. We went to Beadlam Grange Cafe for breakfast which is a 5-10min stroll from the cottage too.

Robin Hood's Bay Coastguard's Cottage with a View
We’ve just returned from a fantastic week at Jane’s cottage in Robin Hood’s Bay and couldn’t be happier. The cottage is beautifully decorated and thoughtfully equipped with everything a family could need. It was the perfect base for exploring the coast – peaceful, cosy, and full of charm. Jane was a wonderful host, and everything was spotless on arrival. We felt right at home from the moment we walked in. Five stars all the way – we’ll be back as soon as we can!

Rowans Cottage - distinctive 1 bed restoration
Our second stay in this beautiful holiday home. Immaculately presented and lovely hosts. Great location, quiet but ideal for walkers and those on driving holidays. Also excellent for any one with mobility problems. Handy for Dalby Forest, Whitby, Pickering, Scarborough and the many lanes less travelled, fabulous scenic views and picturesque villages that North Yorkshire Moors has to offer. Also handy for the North Yorks Steam Railway. Our favourite and most perfect holiday haven and we will return again in the future.

The Nook
Thank you for a lovely stay. Extremely tranquil and relaxing, very clean, not too expensive. The surrounding forest is breathtaking and the hosts extremely nice, we appreciate all the recommendations for activities in the area. Most importantly, couldn't imagine a better place to take our dog to. 10/10

Quay Street Cottage, 2 bed, 2 bath (Scarborough)
Rebecca's cottage is a wonderful home from home. Spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need for a weekend visit or a longer stay. The beds are super comfy. The cottage location is amazing with everything in walking distance. Rebecca was a 1st class host, any questions were answered almost immediately. Rebecca even messaged to say we could check in early. Would i stay at the cottage again...100% i would
