• "We had such a lovely week at Runswick."

  The accommodation is beautiful and kept to a very high standard. There is everything you can think of and need for a weeks stay. The beds were super comfy and the cottage was so spacious. The only thing to note about the listing would be the layout of the twin bedroom is different to the pictures and the living room is so spacious it would benefit from a lamp on the fire/tv side of the room. Not that this anything of concern. We would definitely book again if we were able to get a similar deal on the price.

• "We really enjoyed our stay."

  The house was great. The garden was fantastic and the bedrooms were very nicely decorated and very spacious. The only negative for us as a family with a just turned 3 year old was that there wasn't a highchair, which we felt was extra necessary in containing any mess. We always take our own pressure fit baby gates. So we were able to keep the kitchen area closed off too. We would highly reccomended this property and would stay here again.

  Hi, thank you for the feedback. We do have a high chair and travel cot available for guests. We are not given the ages of any children on booking so tend to offer them for infants. Property Owner

  The accommodation was very good, the environment around the property quiet and the property well presented. The owner's instruction book was very helpful both for local knowledge and how to work things! Welcome pack great and let us get organised on the first day/night. Owner popped 'round to check everything was ok and gave us some history of things local. I just hope we left things as these were meant to be when we departed.

  It was a comfortable, warm, clean and spacious property. Modern kitchen had all the equipment we needed. Downstairs shower great. Upstairs shower didn't drain the water quick enough but the owner is aware and will I'm sure fix the issue. The garden is large and enclosed, our retriever loved it! The owner called by to make sure we were happy and was on hand if we had any issues. We were welcomed by milk, biscuits, jam and a very tasty Victoria sponge cake. Many thanks. This property is located in a beautiful village and very close to Pickering to pick up supplies. We would definitely recommend this property.

• "Runswick is a beautiful and welcoming home with everything you could need for a great holiday."

  We had 4 adults and 1 dog in our party and absolutely loved staying here. Our dog loved having the large garden and gated driveway to run round. On arrival there was a beautiful home made cake along with a hamper of goodies from host Sally. Who popped in to say Hi on our first day. Sally is very friendly happy lady who gave us some tips on where to go for days out. Sitting in a small quiet village of Sinnington, only a short drive from Pickering. There is a pub in the village that serves food and is dog friendly. Sadly we can't comment on the food as we only had drinks here. However we did eat out at the Middleton Arms just a short drive away. Even though they only open from Thursday to Sunday, Wendy's food is worth waiting for. The welcoming atmosphere and jokes we had with Andy behind the bar, also made our night. Will definitely return here when next staying at Runswick. We had some lovely days out to all the beautiful surrounding towns and villages during our weeks stay. We can definitely say we will return to Runswick and would recommend to anyone.

  The cottage is set in a small Idyllic Village, with walks from the doorstep. We were welcomed with a hamper, tea/coffee/cookies & jam & home made cakes, and milk in fridge, very nice following our journey. The owner Sally came round to check everything was ok. The cottage is so well equipped, comforts of dishwasher, washing machine & tumble dryer. It is an amazing size, and mostly suitable for disabilities The garden is beautiful, quiet, secluded, with a summerhouse, a lovely space for relaxation. There is lots to do in the area, Steam Train from Pickering just a few minutes in the car . My husband was pleased he could use his bus pass to visit Mathewson's in Thornton-le-Dale. Lots of nice places to eat & drink, also pick your own fruit /shop/café in the village. There is a Fish & Chip van visits the village on a Friday evening, quite a unique experience, also local honey & eggs for sale in the village.

  The house was absolutely beautiful and warm, every need was catered for, the pots, pans, ovenware, china, cutlery, towels, bedding etc was all of a good quality and plenty of it. It's in a lovely location, central to many places of interest and lots of stunning countryside on the way. There is a Lidl not far away and very nice small shops within a 15 minute drive. The house location is very quiet. It is ideal for two families, one housed upstairs and one down. The beds were very comfortable as were the sofas and chairs. It was so nice to have use of a washing machine and a outside washing line (and pegs). We will definitely visit again, a week wasn't enough!

  When we arrived we found a lovely homemade cake and a hamper with tea/coffee/biscuits and jam and milk in the fridge left by the owner Sally who popped round a couple of hours after we arrived to introduce herself and to make sure everything was ok. The cottage is lovely Its a good size perfect for dad as he had room to move around using his rollator with a lovely lounge and a kitchen/diner with plenty of pots etc also has 2 bedrooms downstairs and the bathroom with large walk in shower with plenty of space for my dad's shower chair (we took ours) , upstairs there are 2 more bedrooms and a shower room i would say if you like large towels (bath sheet) take some as the towels provided are bath towels. The cottage is in a quiet little village about 5mins to the nearest Co op in Kirbymoorside and about 10mins away from Pickering and around 30-40 min to the coast.The village pub is very quaint, nice for a drink but the food was a quite expensive (we didn't eat there) . We all had a lovely time and will hopefully return soon .
