- Mr Draxler, September 2020
Mr Ewing August 2020

“Cottage is adequate, parking is interesting, this is definitely a driving holiday.”

I would not recommend walking to anywhere from th is cottage as the A171 is busy and fast with no pavement.

- Mr Ewing, August 2020
Mrs Wainwright August 2020

Mr Hunt June 2019

“Lovely cottage, everything we needed.”

Great host, Just a pity there is no view out in the back garden, just a high hill, Parking area needs attention,ie not much room. Alongside a very busy road, noise if you sat in the garden, but once in cottage nothing. Very comfortable. Would recommend, we hated to leave, Will be back soon.

Mrs Copestick May 2019

“Although there was parking it was not very good.”

Stairs in cottage quite steep so any one with mobility problems would struggle getting up & down. Right on a main busy road. To access garden outside back door you had to go up half dozen steps, again problem for people with mobility problems. The owners were lovely & helpful.

- Mrs Copestick, May 2019
Mr Pounder July 2018

“We had a lovely stay.”

The cottage was perfect for us in every way, and we really enjoyed our time in and around Whitby. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable, the bathroom enormous, and the living room comfortable and well laid out. I would definitely recommend this cottage, and the area.

- Mr Pounder, July 2018
Mr Spencer June 2018

“Beautiful cottage, very roomy and fantastically decorated.”

Really homely place. The bedrooms were amazing. Fantastic garden's and what a way to wake up in the morning and stand on the back garden and look at the sea view. Couldn't fault the accommodation in any way, great location, 10 mins by car into Whitby. Its a real credit to the owners who are obviously very proud of the place, and why wouldn't they be. Thank you for making ours and the boys stay very enjoyable, we will most definitely be coming back. We will be reccomending this place to everyone that will listen x

Mr Cook October 2016

“Excellent location, excellent property, great owner.”

Family had a really great time. Thank you.

- Mr Cook, October 2016
Mrs Swinney October 2016

“The owners, Helen and Keith, were pleasant to chat to and were helpful.”

It was ideal that we had a grassed area where we could play ball with our dog. The cottage was clean and tidy and nicely furnished. The bed was comfy. A nice touch was the welcome pack, which included a bottle of wine, flowers and a tiger loaf, my favourite. The area is lovely, we enjoyed a drive across the moors, a steam train ride to Pickering, a trip to Whitby and the time spent in Robin Hood's Bay, where our dog made lots of friends. We would certainly return to The Stables again. Many thanks.

- Mrs Swinney, October 2016
Mr Simons July 2016

“We all had a wonderful stay.”

The owners were on site and were so friendly and helpful. The cottage was comfortable and had everything you could need. It is in a great position for seeing both the coast and the moors.

- Mr Simons, July 2016
Mr Nolan July 2015

“An excellent location and a really nice, well-equipped cottage to stay in.”

The friendly and helpful owner was on-site. It was good that we could take the dog with us, and it was a very dog-friendly area in general, we could take him almost everywhere with us. Most beaches had areas where we could take the dog.

- Mr Nolan, July 2015
Mrs Kennedy April 2015

“In a very good location close to Whitby and other places of interest.”

Lovely property, nice and cosy, clean and tidy with plenty of room for 4 people. The owners were very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. Looking forward to a return visit.
