"The property is accessed by a long track approximately 0."
4 of a mile -rest assured you are on the correct route. Property stunning and very clean. Owner Denise friendly and happy to give advice. We loved the peaceful surrounding the only sounds were of nature. Being able to relax in the hub tub and see the Barn Owl swoop over and the ducks waddle by was very special. Many walks on the doorstep, we were lucky enough to see deer whilst staying at Foxglove. We totally enjoyed our stay and will happily return
Thank you for the wonderful review our aim is to give our guests the very best holiday possible
It was a pleasure having you stay with us thank you for leaving the barn in great condition
Look forward to seeing you both again

"We had a lovely 4 night stay at Foxglove."
We received a warm welcome from Denise and her 2 sons, and found the property very clean and well-equipped for our stay - our only recommendations would be some lids for the saucepans and some fairy liquid in the kitchen. The property had beautiful views over the valley and a fantastic hot tub which we enjoyed every evening. We also had lots of fun with the 2 golden Labradors who were very friendly, and it was great to see the ducks and chickens! Thank you!
Thank you for your review so pleased you enjoyed your selves I may have missed the washing up liquid as we live on site we’re always available to assist

"Beautifully renovated barn in a fabulous setting."
Very cosy and comfortable with everything you could need. We received a warm welcome from host Denise. One of the most memorable highlights is sitting in the hot tub with a glass of wine, watching the steam trains pass in the valley below. Highly recommended.
Thank you for choosing us for your holiday and thank you for looking after our barn.
The wonderful review is really appreciated. Our aim is to offer a great holiday to our customers and it’s the icing on the cake when you enjoy it so much.
You will be very welcome to come stay with us again and hopefully look forward to seeing you in the future.

"A genuinely beautiful cottage with genuinely beautiful surroundings, the owners are also genuinely decent and kind people, very welcoming and warm."
The welcome pack was certainly above average and the overall level of relaxation and peace was soon very evident, All in all very limited in what to say that could have improved our stay, and in truth with all the positives experienced it would feel petty to even consider mentioning anything .
We are very pleased that you chose to have your holiday with us. Thank you for the wonderful review. It was a pleasure having you stay with us and thank you for looking after the barn beautifully.
You will be very welcome to stay with us again.

"Our recent week's stay at Foxglove, exceeded any expectations we might have had."
We were welcomed by Denise on arrival who explained everything. Denise was the most hospitable and friendly host we have ever had the fortune of meeting! The place was spotless, beautifully decorated and we even had a lovely hamper waiting for us too. Denise even took showed us her fabulous duck pond and all the chickens, cockerels and rabbits! What a lovely lady!
We had the most fabulous relaxing week. The hot tub was 5* and we'd often watch the steam train trundle by in the valley below, then there were the visits from super friendly and funny Ozzy & Casper (the doggies) Gaz the cat and the 4 friendly white ducks on our doorstep a twice a day!!
We cannot wait to revisit Foxglove. It truly was a very special place and a hidden gem. Great places to visit in Whitby too, thoroughly recommend the Park & Ride. Free parking and £2.60 per person return & 10 mins on the bus.
We can honestly say, we arrived at Foxglove as guests, but left as friends.
Special thanks to Christopher (Denise's son) for his kindness, always being on hand and checking the hot tub every day!
It was a real pleasure having you wonderful couple stay with us. I must say Casper, Ozzy, Gaz and the ducks miss you.
We look forward to seeing you here again and a massive thank you for leaving the barn in a wonderful clean condition.

Lovely kitchen with all mod cons, cosy living room, with smart tv, comfy bed with adjoining shower room. Then the cherry on top is the hot tub looking over that view, watching the Steam Trains passing by. Perfect peaceful get away with lovely walks nearby.

"The cottage is beautiful and on the whole, well equipped."
We mentioned to Denise whilst we were staying that the addition of a towel rail in the bathroom and a small light in the dining area would make it perfect. We had to resort to hanging our towels on the clothes horse each day as there was nowhere to put them to dry after a shower. The track down to the cottage is definitely not for the faint hearted. I had no idea reading the reviews that is was so steep and would have really appreciated it being mentioned before we booked. Yes the views are stunning once you get down to the cottage but it would have been nice to know how steep and long the track was beforehand. For those wanting peace and quiet as well as stunning views this cottage is perfect.
We are in the process of putting a hoop in the shower room for a towel to be hung up. However, the clothes horse is there to dry towels on, especially as our customers use the hot tub being a one bed cottage. There isn’t room for a heated towel rail in the bathroom.
We are positioned on the side of the valley, and thus you will need to come down a Farm track, to reach us and enjoy the beautiful panoramic views of the valley
As always, we appreciate our customers feedback. Thank you.Denise

"Beautiful barn conversion in a lovely location overlooking the NYMR."
Friendly hosts and mostly well equipped, though missed a cafetiere, and a towel rail in the bathroom would be helpful. Really appreciated the dishwasher though!
As others have noted the track to the property is steep and very potholed, glad it wasn't too muddy while we were there.
We are lucky to be onsite and able to obtain anything that our guests needed just ask and I would get one.
Having the panoramic beautiful views on a valley will indeed mean that we have a gradient to reach us. And the road is due a reconstruction in accordance with the owners.
We thank you for your custom we wish you both well

Peaceful location in a great spot for visiting Whitby and beyond.
Denise and her family are really friendly and welcoming. The animals are amazing, chickens, cats and of course Casper the dog, great to engage with all of them. Casper is kept under good control for those worried about dogs.
Could not recommend this cottage enough.
