"This was our third stay at Stag Cottage (plus one stay at Abbey View next door!"
). We love the location and the comfort which this property offers. Close to Whitby and a great base for exploring the local coastline.
The cottage itself is just perfect-everything you need for a wonderful stay! The king size bed is super comfy and the large walk in shower is fabulous! The underfloor heating system takes a little getting used to as it takes a while to cool down once heated-but it keeps the place so warm and cosy.
We will definitely be back-5 stars all the way-just deciding which week for next year!

"Lovely clean cottage, everything was as the description."
Definitely room for two cars and the gate shut making it perfect for the dogs too. Lovely clean site to walk around (lots of fields to walk the dogs in). It’s is on a very busy main road and the traffic could be heard but nothing too bad. You could walk into Whitby if you wanted too. Nice restaurant at the end of the road The Stables and the Park and Ride is there too. Only thing that was a shame was that there wasn’t any or very little matching crockery, but there was enough for everyone. We loved it and would definitely recommend. Heating system was great in fact when we arrived it was too hot and had to turn it down/off. Maybe a fan could be provided for the bedrooms?
An outstanding property which we would return too.

"Excellent cottage in a great location."
Very clean. Secure garden for the dogs and some great fields for them to have a run around in. Only thing they need to sort out is the mixture of dishes / plates / bowls, nothing matched and not enough of them or cutlery. We had read this in previous reviews so took some of our own but think this needs looking at.

"The cottage is spacious and comfortable, and in a good locality for visiting Whitby on foot or by using the Park & Ride bus which is close by."
Although close to the main road the cottage was perfectly quiet inside. It was well equipped except could do with more glasses and cutlery. We managed ok but it could be a problem for 4 guests. Matching crockery would be good too. The mattress in the main bedroom was comfortable but is only king size, not superking as advertised which was a little disappointing.
Overall we enjoyed our stay very much and will probably book again at some time.

"We absolutely loved Stag cottage and would readily return."
The seperate en-suite bedrooms were absolutely perfect when you have two teenage boys with you!
I only have a couple of slight negatives.
Listing is described as having fridge and freezer but there are actually two fridges. Not a problem but thought I would point out.
There is not a lot of point in having a dishwasher when there are only 4 sets of crockery. Again not an issue with us but I guess some people would rather not wash up by hand every day when on holiday.
Nothing the owners can do, but the main road is VERY busy. The noise did not bother us in the slightest but walking down to the shop or into Whitby is a bit hairy with no real pavement just a bumpy track at the side of the road.
As I say none of these had any real impact on our enjoyment and I would definitely look to come back in the future.
Oh, one last thing. As per previous reviews, the tin opener does not work so I left a new one behind!

We’ve stayed at Abbey View previously and will definitely be back to Broadings again. The cottage throughout is immaculately clean and so well equipped with everything you need for a truly relaxing and enjoyable stay. The enclosed garden is perfect for the dog too. The large walk in shower in the master bedroom was wonderful-great to have the option of a bath or shower in each en-suite. The on-site gated parking is great too. The cottage is ideally situated for Whitby town or other nearby locations such as Sandsend, Staithes, Runswick Bay, Saltburn-By-The-Sea and Robin Hood’s Bay. Cannot recommend enough.

A pair of oven gloves are required for taking hot plates etc.out of oven and microwave. Road noise was only bearable. Toilet rolls the the cheapest and thinest you can buy.

On reading this comment we are very sorry to hear about the smell. We have since resolved this by putting a vent in to prevent any smells.

In terms of location close to a convenience store, Spar, and about 1km to get onto the Cinder Track which is great for walking and runs from Whitby to Scarborough with lots of places to pop up. There are 2 reasons we have deducted a star. The first is lack of welcome pack - a couple of tea bags and a pack of biscuits. The second is the fact that it is so close to a very busy A class road making it very noisy to sleep.

There was only one roll of toilet paper (and not even a whole one) provided to share between two bathrooms, there was no washing up liquid or dishwasher tablets provided.
