The booking via Sykes was very 'user-friendly', done very easily by helpful and friendly staff, and follow up emails quick and efficient.

Just show me Whitby Farm Cottages
Throw open the window and breathe in that pure, clean air of the countryside peppered with fresh, salty smells of the sea. Our farm cottages in Whitby are wedged between the wild North York Moors National Park and a magnificent coast lined with mighty, fossil-filled cliffs.
Relax on the farm and wake-up to nature - even the sounds of a cockerel seem melodious after a digital alarm clock. Children will love helping out with chores like collecting eggs and feeding newborn lambs, and there may be the chance to lend a hand in the milking parlour.
Out and about there's so much to see and do when you stay in a Whitby farm cottage. Spend lazy summer days on long, sandy beaches, gateway to superb bathing and surfing. Enjoy walks in the National Park and along the coast, perhaps along stretches of the Cleveland Way or Coast to Coast Path. Hire mountain bikes in Dalby Forest. Watch noble Shire horses perform at the local Shire horse farm. And if your timing's right, look out for scarecrow festivals in neighbouring villages - always inventive and extremely entertaining.
Whatever you do, a farm cottage holiday in Whitby guarantees a firsthand view of rural life amid spectacular surroundings. Enjoy!
