"What a fantastic place to stay, right in the heart of Robin Hoods Bay."
We loved the balcony where we sat with our G&T's in the evenings watching the world go by. The gift pack on arrival was beautiful touch, we will definitely be returning. Thankyou very much Glynnis.

"The property was excellent with everything you need for a fab holiday home from home."
It was well equipped and a short walk to the pub and beach with an added extra of an outside space when the sun was out. The beds were comfy,with an en suite for each bedroom so avoiding the steep stairs when half asleep! The doors were small which added to its quirkiness but could catch you out if you don't remember to duck. The owner called me early to let me know the property was ready and to let me know where the parking permit was. Would love to stay here again!

"2nd time here."

"Lovely property, full of character."
Well located in beautiful Robin Hoods Bay.. Very helpful owner.
-
"Gorgeous little cottage that has all mod cons but retains the quirks of a typical RH Bay cottage."
The balcony was a major plus point and the only issue we have is that it’s not available at the same time in 2024! Thanks
-
"The cottage is very well equipped and close to the amenities, contact with the owners is easy especially after my little accident with a glass which I had broken the owner was very understanding."
Would I recommend this cottage, definitely.
-
"Really lovely little cosy cottage and more facilities than we had anticipated."
The gifts that were left on arrival were a nice welcome and added a personal touch. The cottage is well-placed for getting out and about in Robin Hoods Bay, and beyond. Close to the village shop that sells almost everything we needed. Would highly recommend and we will return. Everything was managed well.
-

-

"Roseberry Cottage is a lovely, cosy cottage in the heart of Robin Hood’s Bay."
There was everything we needed for a great week . The location was perfect, very close to the sea and places to eat. The description on Sykes website was very accurate, and the owner was extremely helpful and friendly.
-
"Perfect fisherman’s cottage - cosy, warm and all facilities as set out."
Good contact with owners and lovely welcome gifts. Would rebook.

"Beautiful cottage in RHB , well equipped and super cozy."
Great to have the balcony for some outdoor space too. Would highly recommend this gorgeous cottage , will definitely return again.
-
"Amazing place, amazing cottage and an amazing stay at Christmas time!"
We honestly couldn’t have asked for more to be honest. The owner was amazing with our stairgate request for our 2 year old, we had wifi so Netflix was a god send with a 2 year old for the odd bit of relaxing time getting her chilled out for bedtime and obviously Christmas films. It’s in an ideal location and the balcony was really nice for some wine and cheese/crackers.
-
"Super cottage, excellent location, nice and warm and cosy."
Everything you could possibly need. Would love to visit again. Thank you.
-
"Great stay and great host!"
-
"Lovely little property - had a fab stay."
.... amazing location
-
"We was welcomed by the owner and what a lovely person."
We didn’t realise we had to carry bags down the hill to the cottage.once I the cottage we felt very comfortable and the wine and chics was so nice. We spent a week here and have some amazing memories we will be booking again for next year.
-
"The cottage was fantastic."
we could not have got a better one. I definitely would use Sykes again for renting a cottage they are spot on.
-
"The Cottages was comfortable."
The description made it very clear that the property was old and with steep stairs. Loved the balcony it was warm and sheltered. Just one suggestion it would be useful if the Belfast sink in the kitchen could have a plastic bowl. As there were only the two of us and we ate out quite alot we didn't use the dishwasher. A really enjoyable holiday thank you.
-
"Absolutely fantastic experience."
The cottage was immaculate, well presented and thoroughly equipped (the best I've seen so far). The owner was very easy to contact and a pleasure to communicate with. On the day we were due to depart back home, a lorry had broken down on the main narrow road into the bay for the whole day, meaning we were unable to drive home out of the Bay from where we had parked the car. The owner of the cottage went above and beyond, being so generous to let us to stay an extra evening at only the cost price of cleaning (very fair). This was taken care of very quickly and was a huge relief that we had a place to stay the night, especially one as nice as Roseberry Cottage. I absolutely recommend this cottage.
-
"Lovely stay at Roseberry Cottage."
Location perfect, cottage had everything we needed, and was perfect for our short break for 3 adults. The owners thoughtful welcome pack, including wine was a lovely touch. Heating was very good, and warmed up the cottage nicely in the chilly April evenings. TV signal and Wifi were excellent. We'd definitely recommend.
-
"Wonderful stay, lovely small cosy and well equipped cottage."
Enjoyed sitting out on the balcony whenever we could weather permitting!! Would recommend anyone to stay here,
-
"Ssshhhh - can’t say too much about this property as I will never have a chance to get booked into it again!"
Lovely cottage, third visit here. Great to sit on the balcony and watch the world go by. Cosy and comfortable at any time of the year. The owners are lovely too. Robin Hoods Bay is a beautiful place to be in.
-
"Beautiful cottage in a beautiful location."
Very clean. Welcome hamper was best we've ever had. Owners were lovely. The only negative was the mattress on the double bed is probably due for changing.
-
"Throughly enjoyed our stay !"
The cottage was clean and warm and in a fantastic location I wouldn’t hesitate to book again.
-
"Location is stunning."
We did the coastal walk to Whitby which itself is lovely. Had a great time and will definitely go back.
-
"Really appreciated the owner’s very generous welcome treats!"
Very well equipped and briefed. Thank you
-
"The cottage and location was perfect."
The owners have put in place many lovely extras which make for a truly enjoyable stay. Robin Hood Bay is charming.
-
"This is a beautiful, charming, tiny cottage in fabulous surroundings."
The owner was extremely helpful and the cottage was extremely well equipped. Anyone with physical limitations needs to be made clearly aware of the challenges of access in Robin Hood's Bay, but for us it was just perfect.
-
"Roseberry Cottage really is lovely."
The balcony is such a wonderful place to sit and relax watching the world go by. The position of the cottage is excellent. Right in the middle of the village but still lovely and quiet. Slept like a log all week. The only thing missing is a washing machine which I think would be better than a dish washer but that’s just personal preference. Thank you for a lovely stay.
-
"Everything you could ever need, ie dishwasher pods, soap, cling film, clean towels was there."
-
"Had a lovely holiday in Bay in this cottage, everything good and the balcony was a bonus."
-
"Robin Hood Bay is a beautiful, traditional, cobbled village & Roseberry Cottage sits perfectly at the centre."
Roseberry cottage is traditional, quirky, comfortable and bijou.
-
"What a great find Roseberry cottage is, it's a period cottage which means low ceilings and steep stairs."
The cottage is beautifully presented and is a credit to the owner; it's situated 3/4 of the way down a very steep hill which means you have to be reasonably fit to stay here. It is well equipped and provisions (tea bags, bread etc) have been left for you, most welcome after a long journey. Parking is sometimes an issue, as the car park at the top of the hill is extremely busy, so even with a parking permit you are not guaranteed a parking space. All in all a great place to stay.
-
"A lovely cottage with e excellent amenities"
-
"Lovely cosy well equipped cottage."
Ideal location to enjoy Robin Hoods Bay and surrounding area. Love the outside balcony, great to sit out for breakfast watching the village come to life. This was, our second visit to Roseberry Cottage and we look forward to visiting again.
-
"Cosy, quirky cottage in a perfect place for exploring Robin Hoods Bay."
It was ideal for the two of us. The town itself was very busy, more than usual according to shop owners, and there was not a lot of social distancing going on. Because of this, and a local Covid outbreak, we didn't venture to Whitby or Scarborough.
-
"Brilliant position half way down the hill"
-
"A lovely small cottage set near the bottom of the village."
If you are after a great setting in the bay this is for you. However, if you area light sleeper then the seagulls, pigeons and dustbin men will wake you up very early. The facilities and kitchen equipment were fantastic but small (fridge very small), we brought extra equipment as usually they aren’t always this good- even sharp knifes. There is also a dishwasher which wasn’t advertised, bonus! Lots of soap and the cottage was very clean. We would have liked more information on parking before we arrived as we were unaware how inaccessible the cottage was from the car. It’s a good 15-20 minute walk down a very steep hill. We are young but if you like to have your car near by you haven’t got a chance. We had never been to the bay before and would have probably booked something else due to this. It also meant my parents had to cancel their visit to the bay as one of them uses a powered scooter and it would have never got down to the bay/cottage. The area is great for running and walking and kids love the beach
Thank you so much for taking the time to let us know your thoughts. As the property is located at a fabulous seaside location, there will be assosciated noise from seagulls. The bin men come once a week to remove the rubbish. Property Owner

"All you could expect from a cottage."
Cosy and warm. Nice location within the bay. Visited this cottage a couple of times now will be back again .
-
"One of the best accommodation we have ever stayed in"
-
"Visited the bay on several occasions now and feel more and more at home each time."
Cottage in a fantastic location to feel part of the bay . Will be booking again that is for sure

"We had a problem with parking and ended up with a parking ticket because we parked on the wrong car park."
(The owners generously shared the cost of this with us.) This was partly our fault for not reading the owners' info thoroughly enough, but this was because we thought we had sorted out the correct car park before we read it. It needs to be emphasised before clients depart for their holiday which two car parks can be used and their locations and which one can't be used. Unfortunately the one that can't be used is nearest to the property. Apart from this, we enjoyed staying in the property and the village and the surrounding area.
Thank you for your feedback and we are glad to hear you enjoyed your week. The parking information is listed in the property notifying guests where they can park. We provide a parking pass for guests at a cost to ourselves to try and assist all our guests and make their stay as easy as possible. We are happy to say we have never had an issue before with guests misunderstanding the parking arrangements, as a gesture we offered to share the cost with you as we want all our guests to have the best experience whilst staying at our properties. Thanks once again for letting us know your thoughts. Property Owner

"Lovely cosy cottage."
Couple of minor problems that were beyond the owners control,they were both sorted out very quickly by the owner. Thank you once again
-
"Really enjoyed our stay."
Very surprised to walk in and find a welcome pack (prosecco, chocs, fruit, bread, milk), it was a lovely touch. The cottage had everything we could possibly need. Very impressed that it had a smart tv as it gave us connectivity to netflix etc which if the weather isnt great outside means there is entertainment for all the family. Great location to beach, shops, pubs, chippy, & great chilling on the balcony watching the world go past.
-
"Beautiful historic cottage in a perfect location for wandering through the winding streets or taking a stroll on the beach."
The owners were very helpful and left amazing welcoming gifts which went down a treat with everyone. We travelled as a party of four, 2xadults and 2xchildrens (aged 4 & 8) and we had just enough room to be comfortable. The bedrooms were perfectly sized and well appointed, just a little bit of a squeeze in the living room when we wanted to sit together. The kitchen had everything we needed and each bedroom had a hairdryer. Overall could not fault this property, loved the quirky nature of the building and the location couldn't be better!
-
"They need to put wifi code in the folder."
Everything else was great. Very clean, perfect location, enjoyed balcony. Lovely prosecco and chocs. Would definitely stay again. Great value. Thank you.
-
"Loved the cottage."
Was really clean and tidy, well equipped kitchen, loved the balcony of a Morning for a cup of tea. Near to everything, the welcome gifts went down really well. Superb, well recommended.
-
"This looks to be a brand new let, which is furnished to a very high standard."
Other visitors looked up at our detached cottage with it's own veranda enviously!
-
"We had an absolutely wonderful time at the cottage."
Best nights sleep I've had in a long while! And to be in the middle of the town within thirty seconds walk from the beach and restaurants is an added bonus. The only question to ask yourself is why AREN'T you booking already?
-
"The cottage was in a great location, right in the centre of the village - 2 min from the beach, the pub and several sweet shops, to the delight of our children!"
We felt like being part of the village for a week, which was great. The cottage was very comfortable and warm. We would have preferred a washing machine to a dishwasher because of the awkward place it was in and we would have liked a few more cutlery items and plates. Apart from that, it was great and Glenys was very helpful. There are several possible walks from the cottage (following Cleveland Way) and the views are stunning. We came across a colony of seals just below Raven Hall - it was just magical. We hope to come back again.
-
"This property was tasteful in decor and immaculate throughout."
It had all the facilities you might want in and area of wonderful character. The terrace with the stable door was an added bonus as it added both sunlight and a pleasant place to sit.
-
"What a lovely cottage."
Small but perfect. It had everything we needed for a wonderful weekend, including a bottle of prosecco! It was beautifully and tastefully decorated, with lovely seaside touches and very, very clean. It's location was great, just close enough to a drop off point to be able to walk our luggage to the cottage and close to pubs, a shop and the beach. The owners were also extremely helpful with any queries we had. We even had a little balcony to enjoy the spring sunshine. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
-
"Roseberry Cottage is all you could ask for."
It had all the facilities we needed. The balcony is a great place to sit in the morning in full sunshine. Another important factor, the owner is so easy to deal with and very accommodating.

All holidaymakers will love the beach and its cliff-top walks, whilst more serious walkers will enjoy the many long distance trails that pass through the Cleveland Way, the Lyke Wake Walk and the Coast to Coast walks which all take in Robin Hood’s Bay. The village amenities are superb, with charming alleyways to explore and plenty of places to rest, relax and take refreshment. A perfect base for enjoying the Yorkshire Coast.
