Fauna's Corner

The location of the cottage is excellent, right next to the river Esk and on a very quiet holiday park (in April anyway). There is an amazing viaduct over the river where there is bungy jumping every couple of weeks during the summer and you can walk over it into Whitby which is only 30 mins away on foot. The pool is NOT 24 hrs as advertised and you have to pay. The property can be a bit difficult to find because the name plaque of the plot is covered by an overgrown hydrangea. If you use what 3 words it's starred.surprises.bleach. One major issue with the property is the shower, which is over the bath and under a sloping roof. If you're over 5ft 6ins it's difficult to stand up properly. Also, the screen cannot be moved out of the way and getting out of the end of the bath when it is wet and soapy if very slippery. I wished I had taken a rubber bath mat as I felt very vulnerable getting out in case I slipped over. However, this did not spoil our holiday as there are so many lovely places to visit nearby, beit either picturesque beaches or stunning moorland villages.

Lovely property, clean and in a fabulous location

Great cottage. Only a short walk from the town. Quiet setting. Cottage well equipped. Essentials all provided. Would visit again :)

Absolutely 5 star, great week, great walks with this hidden little gem. Don't forget to take a torch, bit hard to find at 17:00 late November. But to help furture guests the What3Words for the front door is ///starred.surprises.bleach Will use again.
