Wonderful Cottage

The cottage is beautifully located, down a long track taking you through a farm. The house itself was gorgeous, with a lovely view of the sea and a gaggle of friendly cows who came to the fence every day.The facilities were all really good. The house felt very clean and modern and everything was just perfect.We enjoyed our stay very much and we would definitely come back.

Fabulous location and beautiful cottage

We loved our stay here, the cottage was spotless and the furnishings were lovely. Log fire was a bonus. We walked directly from thr cottage onto the cliff path to walk to Robin Hoods Bay and were amazed to see an incredible pod of dolphins swimming past, which made our week! Great location just a few minutes from the Abbey. Would highly recommend.

Just what the Dr. Ordered!

Lovely little cottage, ideal for all local amenities but nestled in a beautiful, quiet and unobtrusive location. The cottage was clean, comfortable and had everything you needed for your stay. a lovely base for our little break away from it all. Just maybe one suggestion, there is a DVD player in the TV in the bedroom, perhaps one for the TV downstairs? Due to the location and as stated in the description TV signal not always the best so to be able to watch one of many of the films provided, downstairs with the tipple of your choice would be nice. A big thankyou to the host Joanne who went out of her way to get my forgotten vanity case sent bk to me quickly

We were a little disappointed with some of the cleanliness

We thought that the cottage was a little tired and needed a little TLC. It is a lovely cottage and liked the quiet location which is what we wanted. Its just a shame that the overall experience was spoilt by a few minor issues like the overgrown grounds and all the spiders webs.

Wildgoose cottage. The best kept secret, shhhhh

As returning customers the cottage was as expected. Easy to access with fantastic adjacent side parking. Secluded enough to almost be hidden but accessible to the people who know. We love the cottage at night as you look into the dark sky away from the street lights. We will look forward to returning again in 2025.
