"This accommodation is very spacious considering it is for 2 people."
The property is finished to a high standard and very well equipped. The owners are very friendly and helpful. Really loved the garden at the back too. Although parking was beside the road, it wasn't busy and never a problem.
Excellent provision of maps etc so no need to go to a tourist office!

"We had a very enjoyable week staying in this lovely cosy cottage."
It was scrupulously clean, the bed was comfy and the kitchen had everything we required, although we didn't do any cooking, the local pub took care of Sunday lunch and we ate out the rest of the time! The addition of a delicious Victoria sponge cake on arrival was an added bonus. I would definitely recommend this accommodation for a thoroughly enjoyable base from which to explore the North York Moors or as a romantic getaway from the outside world (no phone signal most of the time!).

"Unreservedly recommended!"
Beech Farm Cottage is beautifully located in the North York Moors National Park; the cottage itself is well maintained, well thought out and very warm and cosy and peaceful. My visit was at the beginning of the Corona Virus outbreak so some aspects of my holiday were curtailed but the cottage proved to be a very welcome haven. I did manage a trip to Whitby on the train as the train station in Danby is only a 10 minute stroll away. I didn't see much of the owners (for obvious reasons) during my stay but I was left a lovely Victoria sponge for my arrival - so thoughtful! I intend to book another break here as soon as I can!

"An excellent location in the North York Moors."
Quiet, scenic and a rural location to be envied. Yet, close to coastal honey spot destinations such as Stathes, Whitby and Robin Hoods Bay and the Esk Valley Railway. In Autumn, why goes to New England when you can enjoy the colour of the Moors and trees in the valleys!

It was beautifully decorated and furnished, had a lovely, cosy atmosphere and we actually found ourselves forgoing a couple of planned nights out to spend the evening at the cottage instead; that really shows how nice it is! It's situated brilliantly for exploring the North Yorkshire Moors (and coastal villages) and the immediate surroundings were very picturesque. The owners were also very friendly, welcoming and helpful and they ensured we had a comfortable stay. Can't say enough positive things about this place; would absolutely love to stay there again!

The Fox and Hounds in the village is a very short walk and serves lovely food and great beer, we spent several evenings there. The selection of books to read is very good, there are loads of maps and guidebooks, everything we could have thought of. There is so much to do in North Yorkshire - lovely walks, local attractions, seaside visits - we were spoiled for choice. Thank you to the owners, who were very welcoming and helpful. The cottage is a perfect haven and we loved staying there.

"The bed was a little firm for my taste and the parking space a bit small."
However, everything else was brilliant! The lounge was very comfortable and open, with lots of natural light. There was a wide selection of games and freeview TV in case of bad weather (it is Yorkshire) and the kitchen very modern with all of the amenities including a large fridge and freezer, proper cooker and dishwasher. Everything was spotlessly clean. Upstairs there is a massive hallway, great for storing the bags and cases, a good sized bedroom and the bathroom is en-suite. A very large shower in the bathroom is wonderful, and again the bathroom itself is fully modernised. No bath, but that never bothered us. Outside is a lovely little garden overlooking the valley, great for hot summer evenings and a bottle of wine! Or you could visit the pub, about 15 minutes away. (I can recommend the Sunday lunch).The owners, who live next door, are very welcoming but not demanding and their dog Charlie is lovely. Oh and the cake was delicious. What else? Free WiFi is useful. Whitby is about half an hour away and there are lots of little coastal towns to visit like Staithes and Sandsend, which are a bit closer. Overall a lovely place and we would definitely stay there again.

The cottage is spacious, very well equipped and tastefully furnished. The large fridge/freezer was particularly appreciated as we do actually self-cater. Nothing was too much trouble for the owners, who went out of their way to ensure that we were happy with everything. The scenery of the North York moors is stunning and there is plenty to do, see and explore. We can't believe that 2 weeks went so quickly.
