“Amazing place which is more a peaceful retreat.”

Excellent access to garden which is well stocked and was able to collect Pears, rhubarb and courgettes for baking. Kitchen very well equipped and spacious. Did not use the washer as it was in a separate building and communal; we are still very careful due to Covid. There is room for a small one in the cottage if the fridge is placed on a higher level. I did struggle as the fridge was very low. Hand sanitiser was supplied. Good internet access and two large TVs (we retuned them for a better ...

Excellent access to garden which is well stocked and was able to collect Pears, rhubarb and courgettes for baking. Kitchen very well equipped and spacious. Did not use the washer as it was in a separate building and communal; we are still very careful due to Covid. There is room for a small one in the cottage if the fridge is placed on a higher level. I did struggle as the fridge was very low. Hand sanitiser was supplied. Good internet access and two large TVs (we retuned them for a better reception). No problems with parking; the arch at the entrance looks small but most in the complex had large cars and we had no problems with driving in and out or parking. This is our second visit to the complex and think this cottage is our favourite. Highly recommend , hosting skills exceptional and very friendly. Will return next year if we can.

The central heating was not good very sporadic on some nights not others,we understand the owner is sorting this out over the next few weeks apart from that the cottage was very good

“Sarah was a brilliant host during our stay, very knowledgeable about everything in the area and very friendly and helpful.”

The cottage is located in a rural environment, with a beautiful garden for birdwatching and letting the kids play. Even our car, a Volkswagen Bus, was easy to park in the yard off the road. The interior was well presented, clean and functional. The kitchen is well equipped and has everything you need to prepare a meal. The bedroom is a decent size and the kitchen and living area allow you to take a good rest after using the day to visit Bridlington Beach, walk in the country side or what ever you wish. The wonderfull, sandy, beach is close by and we cycled to Bridlington nearly every day, most of the route is car free. We also visted York (1hr. car drive) and the North Yorkshire Moors, a definite tip is to visit the sea bird centre at Bempton Cliffs. We really enjoyed out stay there and will say, with the right accent: "I´ll be back"

“Ramblers Rest is a beautiful little cottage ideal for a couple.”

We were so happy and relaxed there with the beautiful garden. It’s an ideal base for exploring East and North Yorkshire. Our host Sarah couldn’t have been more wonderful she was always on hand if needed and gave us some great info about places to visit. We were sad to leave this haven in the country and can’t wait to go back.

“The cottage was not very clean, there were cobwebs all over the cottage with spiders in them.”

The TV in the lounge area did not work as you couldn't get reception and we were told by the owner this was due to warm weather! More likely that she needs to sort the arial out. There was a tv in the bedroom which did work but I don't expect to have to lay in bed to watch tv. The cottage was small and there was a table and chairs for 4 in the lounge and a table for 2 in the kitchen which made it very cluttered. In the bedroom there was only a rail to hang clothes which was fair enough but it was cluttered with a fabric chest of drawers, a mirror at the back and a quilt cover stacked on it, which made it difficult to hang clothes up. The mirror wasn't near any plugs so drying my hair was difficult. The bathroom needed a good fettle, and the towels provided had seen better days. The mattress didn't seem to fit the bed either, there was a gap at one side. All in all, it was ok but could have been better. The main thing was the tv and Wi-Fi, which is advertised falsely as they don't work.

“Ramblers rest is in a lovely quiet location,just what we needed for a few days r&r after looking after our grandchildren.”

It is well equipped and certainly one of the best holiday cottages we have stayed in.Lovely to be able to have a cup of tea immediately on arrival as Sarah provides tea and milk etc for your first cuppa.

Mrs Spendley September 2018

“French doors advertised were not there, just normal window.”

Sink, bowl, draining tray filthy, shower mat filthy. Had to wash crockery before use. Heating on timer so had no control over it and bathroom always cold in morning. Owner did offer money back, but we made do as we'd travelled all that way for a week away.

- Mrs Spendley, September 2018

Thank you for your feedback. Apologies for the listing error concerning the patio doors at the property, they were replaced last year after a female guest advised she felt vulnerable and it was changed. With reference to the cleanliness issues, the owner has expressed how upset she is regarding your disappointment with your stay and did offer a full refund to you during the week. As you arrived early after a long car journey the owner thought she was assisting you by allowing you early entry into the property as her usual check in time is 4pm. By doing this it didn't leave her the opportunity to check that her cleaners had left the property to its usual high standards giving you cause to leave the feedback you did. She cannot apologise enough for this and acknowledges this is why a check in time of 4pm is vital in allowing her allow time to ensure the property is left to its high standards. Thank you again for your feedback. Sykes owner relations

Could not wish for anything better.

Mrs Tallowin July 2018

“Ramblers Rest was excellent value for money.”

The location was ideal for walking and touring around the area. A very peaceful spot that seemed miles from anywhere yet within walking distance from a major supermarket, buses and the railway station.

Ms Hagelstein July 2017

“Everything was perfect!”

The cottage was very cozy, the location wonderfully tranquil and quiet and the neighbors were very welcoming and always had time for a chat! ;-) Sarah and Andy, our hosts, literally went out of their way to make our stay pleasant and exciting! They gave us so many ideas for places to see and things to do - pity we only had a fortnight. We enjoyed helping ourselves to the fruit and veg from the garden and watching the birds from the bedroom- what a luxury! Anna & Markus from Germany

Mrs Skinn June 2017

“Wonderful break in a loveley little cottage.”

Only dissappointment was couldn't get on the internet as the Wfi connection was intermittent, which we feel should be mentioned in the information.

Rhodes-Dryden December 2016

“Great cosy cottage”

Had a fantastic weekend stay here. Great location, quiet and relaxing. The owner Sarah was waiting to show us round and answer any questions we has. The communal room has many books, DVD's games, washing machine, outdoor games and BBQ equipment for the quest to use. The cottages are well equipped. Although it's only a one bedroom the sofa bed is very comfy so can sleep 4 people in total. We will be going back. Sarah and Andy are wonderful host's and so welcoming.

Mr Bradley September 2016

“The main point of the booking was to provide a base for seeing (mainly coastal) locations which we had never visited before.”

This in itself was fully met, but Sarah Hutchinson did so much more to make us welcome when we rang her for 'key collection arrangements', by giving us very precise directions, actually being there to meet us when we arrived and generally enthusing over the charms of the area. We had all home comforts, as well as Sarah's "colleague" on site, and the property's description in the Sykes e-mails was spot-on. We had wonderful weather too! Overall, extremely satisfied with the outcome.

Mr Fagg March 2016

“This is a lovely cottage in a super area of the country and we enjoyed walking to the beach every day we were there.”

We received an enthusiastic welcome from the owner, which made this a special holiday and we do hope to go back again.

Bessingby Mews

Bridlington 2 miles. A small group of three mews properties and large farmhouse set around an attractive courtyard, in a quiet position in Bessingby village, two miles from the coastal town of Bridlington and just one mile from Bridlington's Old Town. Access is via a private arched entrance, with courtyard off road parking outside each property. Sympathetically converted from former stables and farmhouse, the properties are individually styled to provide comfortable and homely holiday cottages, suitable for couples or families wanting to stay in a tranquil and peaceful setting, but be within a five minute drive to the popular and bustling seaside resort of Bridlington. The three smaller cottages benefit from all ground floor accommodation, whilst the larger one can cater for family reunions or groups of friends. Each property has access to a large, communal lawned garden to the rear with mature trees, shrubs and seasonal fruit, vegetables and herbs that guests are welcome to pick, plus an assortment of free extras, such as a croquet set, and beach items on a first come, first served basis. There is also a barbecue and furniture for you to sit, relax, and meet the neighbours and a summerhouse which makes a fantastic bird hide. There is no pub or shop in the village, however you will find the shop and the dog friendly pub is less than a mile away. The traditional seaside town of Bridlington has long sandy, award-winning beaches, shops, pubs, tea rooms and the Spa Theatre. Stroll along the promenade, build sandcastles on the beach, enjoy a trip into the bay on the Yorkshire Belle, or for the more adventurous, try the pirate ship or the speedboat. The quieter resort of Filey lies a little further along the coast and is like stepping back in time, with its quaint coble landing, cobbled roads down to the beach and its brightly painted beach huts. Nature lovers must visit Bempton Cliffs RSPB reserve, with its wonderful colonies of nesting sea birds, including puffins in the summer months and the largest mainland colony of gannets in the country, whilst the rolling hills of the Yorkshire Wolds are ripe for exploring. With many attractions in the area, these courtyard cottages provide an excellent base for a varied and happy holiday.
