Granary Cottage, Staintondale

Friendly welcome, easy parking and secure garden for our small dog made this a great place for our week's stay in the North Yorks Moors and Coast area. Accommodation is fairly compact but suited our needs well. There is a pub that serves great food within 0.5m of the property and some lovely walks close by - along the cost from Ravenscar towards the picturesque fishing village of Robin Hood's Bay.

VERY COMFORTABLE COTTAGE. ALTHOUGH WEATHER WAS NOT GOOD WE ENJOYED OUR STAY. ONLY SHORT DRIVE FROM WHITBY OR SCARBOROUGH.LOVELY VIEWS, LOCALS VERY FRIENDLY GREAT PUB SERVES FOOD 5MINS DRIVE.

Had a fabulous stay in this lovely cottage in March 2012. The weather was sunny and warm and we had some fabulous walks both on the beach, the pennine way and the surrounding countryside. The cottage and all its facilites are excellent and the enclosed back garden was a real plus and brilliant for our dog. The cottage is situated in a lovely position with some great walks around the area and some lovely dog friendly pubs.

The only addition I would recommend to the owners of the cottage is a large rug in the lounge area as the floor was freezing even when the heating was on.

Would highly recommend this cottage and we hope to return again.

The owner was welcoming and showed us all the cottage and told us stuff we needed to know. The cottage was great had everything that a home could want.It was very clean and maintained to a high standard. The main bed was very comfortable indeed.

Would definitely recommend this cottage .You can see the sea from the courtyard and the lovely surrounding countryside. Chocolates were left for us in the property on our arrival which we all thought was a lovely touch .The cottage was spotlessly clean and very welcoming .The only minor niggle was that the blackout blind was not very effective in the single bedroom .Overall, we were very happy with the accommodation.
