“Our journey to The Mews was made easier by a video giving directions off the main road : very helpful.”

...

Sarah was there to welcome us on arrival and she provided a few starter items, such as milk, eggs, biscuits and even some dog treats. All cleaning equipment/supplies were on hand, as were recycling facilities. The enormous garden was well looked after and dog secure. Children were encouraged to make the most of it by the provision of play equipment, and Sarah invited us to help ourselves to fruit/veg from the organic border. She even organised a treasure hunt in the garden for our children, complete with prizes all round! There is ample parking and re-charging points for electric cars. Inside, everywhere was very clean and all rooms spacious. There were plenty of bathrooms/toilets for a large family and the kitchen was well equipped to a high standard. Beds were comfortable and there was plenty of wardrobe/drawer space. If so inclined, there was a huge choice of DVDs etc. Sarah had made it clear at the time of booking that the WiFi was not the best, but it proved adequate and facilitated a lengthy conference call. Sarah was a very friendly, attentive host, for whom nothing was too much trouble. The Mews provides a relaxing base, to which we would be very happy to return in the future. Thank you, Sarah!!

Mrs Lunn August 2020

“Lovely location with large garden.”

Kitchen spacious and well equipped.Living area needed a bit of a deep clean and some of the beds were a bit broken but overall very ample for our needs.

- Mrs Lunn, August 2020
Mrs Muncaster August 2020

“Sarah made us feel extremely welcome and the house was amazing.”

We were a group made up of 5 adults and 3 children 2 of which are disabled and they had the time of their lives in the massive back garden and the added enjoyment of seeing rabbits and hares in there really made our day. The thoughtfulness of the biscuits and fresh milk on arrival was also a nice thing for us especially after a long journey and the weather being so warm.

- Mrs Muncaster, August 2020
Mr Tasch July 2020

“The property was in a very peaceful location, but close to towns, beaches, wildlife, etc.”

It was super spacious and a great place to start the day with breakfast around the big kitchen table as well as a cosy living room to relax in at the end of the day. There was a large garden to enjoy as well as plenty of bath / shower rooms & toilets, so no queues. We used the BBQ twice, as well as a few of the many DVDs, plus one of the jigsaw puzzles in amongst the varying games available. Everything that we needed was available for us. We all had a great time.

- Mr Tasch, July 2020
Ms Wilson August 2019

Mrs Mills September 2018

“Fabulous house, large and spacious.”

Equipped with everything you could need, especially in the kitchen. Ample toilets/showers so no need to queue. Beautiful large, enclosed garden with plenty of space for children to play.

Miss Angele May 2018

“The place was homly, beautiful, spacious, and equipped so there was no worry of leaving something behind.”

Even if you had, it was only 5 minutes away from either the local shops or Morrisons, so there was no need to go short even if you arrived late on the first night. We were able to enjoy every room, the patio, the beautifully kept garden -perfect size for the children and pets, and a haven for birds. The owner called in to ask if we needed anything and to wish us a lovely holiday both days we were there. Our only regret was not being there for the full weekend!!! Definitely, a must return!

- Miss Angele, May 2018
Mr Woodward March 2018

“The owner couldn’t do enough for us.”

The property is in a peaceful location right outside Bridlington with a five minute drive to the seafront. The size of the property easily catered for our party of 4 adults, six children and a dog, with one of our party in a wheelchair, access and layout was no problem. The huge kitchen with its large table meant we sat down all together at mealtimes and all added to a great break. Will definitely return if we’re up Bridlington way again.

- Mr Woodward, March 2018

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.
