Excellent location and a great base to travel from to visit other areas. Local pubs are fab and the coastal walk to Whitby is lovely. Scarborough only half hour in car so plenty to see and do.

Sharrow head cottage

This little cottage is a gem, location is amazing. From arriving to leaving it has been the most relaxing week ever. The cottage was equipped with everything you need there was absolutely nothing we were without, and the welcome bottle of wine was a very nice touch. We can't wait to get back. Thank you Jo. Xx

Cosy, compact, convenient

The cottage is compact, but every inch of space is used to the maximum to make it a very comfortable, cosy place to base yourself. The kitchen is well stocked and easy to use. The living area is tiny, but with a comfy sofa and armchair is fine to hang out in. The stairs are very steep, especially to the attic bedroom (come down in reverse and use the rope provided!) Ideal for a family with younger children (who will love the attic bedroom), but I managed to negotiate the stairs as a reasonably fit and active grandma😁 The cottage is at the bottom of the hill, very ancient for the beach and main village.

The cottage was perfect, although we would have preferred the cooker to have been checked first so that it worked. The boys loved the attic room and the location was perfect for the beach, pub, excellent fish bar and restaurant. A short stroll to Ravenscar to see the grey seals. Parking was expensive and a long walk uphill. Overall a lovely holiday. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

A real quirky cottage, very close to the beach and with bags of history, loved the hidden spiral stairs, children really liked their room on the top floor and the bell in the kitchen. A good informative folder produced by the owners gave an in depth history of ownership of the cottage that made interesting reading. A well equipped kitchen, comfortable sitting room with Netflix and comfy beds made our stay enjoyable, and it's dog friendly - what more could one want.
