“Have stayed at this cottage before but the addition of WiFi is very welcome as it meant we could stay in touch with family as there is no cell reception unless you walk quite a way down a track.”

“Beautiful cosy cottage with two wonderful log burners which were made good use of.”

Having the WiFi was a real bonus which worked brilliantly. Situated in a lovely spot next to a micro brewery pub which serves good food and drink. Very well equipped cottage with everything we needed. Thank you for a wonderful stay and all the information prior to our arrival. Kind regards Debbie

“This lovely homely cottage was an ideal base for our holiday , spotlessly clean and well equipped for cosy nights in .”

The pub across the lane was a bonus and the Gardens were kept in good order , the overall feeling was of having had a real relaxing holiday in a most beautiful setting

“My wife who is of very slight build, with a slight disability and therefore susceptible to balance problems, was initially somewhat perturbed to read the feedback with regard to the stairs of this property being difficult to negotiate.”

On arrival however, we were delighted to find that all was well for her. They are essentially nothing more than "old cottage" stairs, fairly steep and with a shorter flat section on which to place one's feet, but she found no trouble using them. The thing she DID find difficult however, was the small path running from the car parking space to the front door which is uneven and for her, a little troublesome. It forms part of the character of the place however, and we wouldn't expect it to be changed. Make no mistake about it though, this semi detached Grade 2 listed building is essentially a delightfully quaint and attractive little place to relax. It is also one of the best equipped cottages in which we have ever stayed, we could find no fault with anything. Everything and more was there in plenty. It was let down by only one aspect, the cooker is absolutely filthy! An attempt to use the oven on the first night resulted in the whole place ending up stinking, and the food we prepared was thrown away because it tasted of burned on grease. No second attempts there then...…. we stuck to the microwave thereafter ….. but some attention required please as a matter of urgency! Eating out is thirty yards next door at the wonderful pub, "The New Inn", where the food is excellent, but from where there is never any disturbance. A delightful country pub welcome awaits all. Would we return? Most certainly, and we will! Quiet enough to feel remote, but near enough to civilisation in Pickering which is a mere three miles away thus offering the best of everything! Book with confidence, a cracking, comfortable little cottage well worth a visit.

“Cottage is lovely and very well equipped.”

Garden is bigger than we expected and safe for the children and dog. Pub is very handy and family and pet friendly. There’s lots to do and see all within less than an hour’s drive. We will be back!
Mr Walker August 2018

“This was a lovely cottage in a beautiful location.”

It was very well kitted out & it was the first time we have rented a cottage where everything was working. Our only point would be the live & dead sparrows in the log burners & perhaps some wardrobes to hang your clothes up instead of the coat stands. We had to let some sparrows out of the log burners & dispose of the dead ones before we could light them. We would love to come back to this cottage. Kind Regards, Dave, Sue & Barney (Woof).

“Lovely cosy cottage.”

Well equipped with all you could need. Great location next to an excellent pub. The enclosed rear garden was well maintained and perfect for our dog to explore. The rear entrance to the cottage and lobby area are great for muddy boots and wet dogs.

“Cottage very cold when we arrived although once we lit the stoves it soon warmed up.”

Details regarding bathrooms were misleading. They say en-suite but in fact there is only a toilet and HAND basin which is too small to get washed and shaved in. It does say toilet and basin in the details but en-suite does imply a shower. The basin in the downstairs bathroom is also just a HAND basin again too small for a wash and shave. As we were two couples we had wanted two bathrooms. The only other complaint is that it does not say that the stairs are not suitable for someone with restricted mobility which I have and therefore would not have booked this particular cottage.

“Comfortable, cosy cottage ideally located in a pretty village with a great pub!”

Corner cottage is charming and full of character. It is set within lovely gardens full of birds and bees enjoying the many plants and flowers. The small village of Cropton is very attractive and has a great pub and brewery which serve excellent food and local beers. It isn't too far to Pickering for shopping and to Sutton Bank where there are lots of walks and trails to follow. Castle Howard, York and Helmsley are also within easy reach along with many other pretty villages.

“Absolutely fabulous cottage”

Corner Cottage is an absolutely wonderful base for exploring the North Yorkshire Moors and coastline. The cottage itself is more spacious than we were expecting and is extremely comfortable, especially when the night's a bit chilly and the log burner's put into action. The cottage provides everything you need for an enjoyable stay and the beds are extremely comfy. We were impressed with how well equipped the kitchen was and what a good size it was too. The garden is lovely and while we were there we were able to wander out and eat raspberries off the bush. Location wise the cottage is right next to the New Inn, which serves very good food, and has walks straight out of the door so it's great for anyone wanting to explore the area on foot. Pickering is only a few minutes drive away and there are loads of places which are accessible in short driving distance. For any stay here I would recommend taking the Pickering to Whitby steam train and spending a few hours in Whitby, especially if you like fish and chips as Maggies Cafe is amazing. There isn't any wifi or mobile signal in the cottage (walk up to the campsite next door if you must get a signal) and it was amazing to be able to walk through the door and know we were out of communication with the outside world. I think that made our holiday even more relaxing as we ended up playing games in the evening rather than sitting on Facebook! I would highly recommend this property and it's clearly set up for dog owners and parents of small children so it's a perfect all rounder. My only sadness is that our dog died in May and we originally booked the cottage with him in mind. He'd have loved it.

Excellently placed for trips around North Yorkshire Moors and further afield at York and the coast. Cottage is right next to the The New Inn pub which itself is well worth a visit - own brewery for really good beers and very good food. No stay here should be without a ride on the North Yorkshire Steam Railway.
