    ! I definitely overpacked for this holiday with all the additional extras that are provided, it was absolutely amazing, I was definitely so sad to leave, and so was my little dog Alfie. I've never felt so welcomed and comfortable on a staycation. I genuinely can't recommend it enough, I'd absolutely love to come back.

  • "Our stay at your cottage was very comfortable, spacious,well equipped you thought of just about everything you could need."

    The welcome pack was a lovely surprise probably the best we have had. The only negative was parking our car possible better instructions in the arrival information. *Not happy for this bit to be included online,the bins were quite full on our arrival and building materials were a little off putting removal would of made parking easier. Not a major issue but could make the cottage even better.

  • "The cottage was beautiful."

    Had original beams etc. It is a real home from home holiday experience. You are welcomed straight away with a vase of flowers on the kitchen table, and lots of welcome gifts such as bread, milk, honey and biscuits. Even the dogs have treats !! The attention to detail is second to none. Has well made furniture through out, none of the MDF made furniture you find in most holiday lets. I would highly recommend Sarah's Cottage as a base for the Yorkshire Cost

  • "We have just comeback from our 'staycation' and telling our relatives what a wonderful place it is!"

    The description is accurate and the cottage was really clean. Upon arrival, there was milk, bread, parkin biscuits, eggs and honey. This was a lovely touch as it made us feel welcome and we didn't have to rush straight away to get the essentials such as milk. There is even toilet roll and all the cleaning equipment you need. The bed was really comfortable and for the first time in a while, I slept well on holiday. It is super dog friendly with a little garden for dogs to run around whilst you relax outside. The place is cosy and homely - perfect for two people and a dog. One day, we had to stay inside because it was raining non stop. We didn't mind, as we stayed inside and relaxed - we felt at home yet relaxed. We met Sarah and John and they are both wonderful and really want to ensure you have a lovely and relaxing stay. We have booked again for next year as we know we won't find a decent place like Sarah's cottage. The location is perfect with many options to eat out and a local co-op nearby. Perfect stay and thank you Sarah and John.

    Thank you May, Jonathan, and Qalbi for the lovely feedback and the comments in the visitors book :) It was a pleasure you meet you all too. We are so delighted that you enjoyed your stay so much to book with us again for next year, and that you felt so at home there. See you all again next year - Best Regards - Sarah and John Property Owner

    So comfortable in every way from the huge bed to lovely bedding & soft fluffy towels. The lounge area is spacious & cosy for relaxing. Secure garden for your dog with doggie towels, dishes etc & even a Collar & lead should you need it. Gino our Miniature Schnauzer enjoyed his holiday.

About the location

FLAMBOROUGH

Bridlington 4 miles; Filey 7 miles; Scarborough 18 miles.

The pretty village of Flamborough occupies a superb setting, perched on a picturesque peninsula on the East Coast of Yorkshire, 4 miles from Bridlington. Housing traditional fishermen's cottages and a small selection of welcoming pubs and restaurants, Flamborough also has much to offer the rambler, historian and birdwatcher. There are spectacular cliffs, which form an eight mile stretch of Heritage coastline, and at Flamborough Head, stand two historic lighthouses, one of which is the oldest one in Britain, built in 1674. To the north of the village, the magnificent 400 feet high cliffs are home to one of the largest colonies of nesting sea birds in England. Discover the puffins at Bempton, follow the fascinating natural trails at South Landing and the wooded ravine at Danes Dyke, or explore the smugglers’ caves at North Landing. Enjoy a spot of fishing or a boat trip to explore the sea caves. Flamborough Head is a wonderful place for anyone who enjoys beautiful coastal scenery and bracing sea air.
