Highcliffe Cottage

The accommodation was exactly as described and much more spacious than we expected.

It is in a really lovely location that is beautiful in itself and also close to lots of fab things to do. The outdoor space is lovely. The home is really well equipped and thought out. The beds are comfy. We needed more pillows, but that might be personal preference and thankfully my husband joined us a day later, so brought extra. It was perfect for our stay. The host was really responsive and helpful. We would recommend this home.

We were given all the information we needed by Richard, who was available and helpful during our stay.

The cottage is in a lovely location next to Highcliffe Manor House. South Landing can be accessed on foot via the Sculpture Trail. The cottage has access to a well kept courtyard and spacious grounds. Inside it is spacious and we liked the layout very much. It was spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated. There was one step between the kitchen and the lounge area which could be an issue for some people. It was almost perfect but could be made more luxurious with some fuller cushions on the sofas. The kitchen lights are not bright enough for our desires but we managed. There was a problem with the freezer part of the fridge, though the fridge part was working well. I would like to stay there again.

Our host Richard was very friendly and accommodating,minor problems were sorted very quickly Accommodation was clean and well decorated,beds comfortable.

Accommodation was well situated with nice grounds all round accommodation We saw deer and owls in fields around the property and great walks from our accommodation We had some great meals at pubs in the immediate area highly recommended Sea Birds pud only 4 minutes drive in Flamboroug Had a good all round holiday with great weather for the time of the year

Pros: Homely cottage in a peaceful, rural setting.

Super walks right from the door. Tasteful neutral decor, nice curtains, blinds, flooring etc. great kitchen with everything provided eg towels, all kitchen utensils, and kitchen roll etc and big table for 6. Excellent bathrooms and shower, with towels, loo rolls, and handwash provided. Cons: although clean, the duvets and pillows were of poor quality and suggest upgrading for a more luxury feel. Sofas a nice design but a little grubby, need deep cleaning.

Lovely spacious property in beautiful grounds….

Richard is a wonderful owner happy to help …..excellent area to explore

The surroundings were perfect also courtyard was so safe for our dog.

Was listed as having fridge/freezer it should read small fridge with freezer compartment which was totally frozen up took me 3 hours to only partly defrost it would also have been nice if the owner had telephoned or visited to welcome us as this was a break before my husband went into hospital so we were really confined to the cottage

We had an absolutely lovely stay at Highcliffe Cottage.

We stayed as a family (5 Adults and two children) It was very generous for space, clean and had a homely feel. 2 bathrooms (one with shower and one with bath) was a bonus! The secure courtyard was perfect for the little ones to have a play. Plenty off street parking and had everything we needed. The host Richard is fab with communication & customer service! Great location, highly recommended and will be back!

A comfortable cottage in an excellent position.

A couple of minor things let it down. The fridge is too small. There is an oven but no oven gloves; having to make do with bits of cloth was not ideal. The hot water tap to the bath was a trickle and took ages to get deep enough to bath two small children. But overall it was just what we wanted.

Gorgeous property and grounds, brilliant location.

Richard is absolutely amazing and responds very swiftly.

Cottage has a wonderful location.

It is comfortable but a bit basic. The heating is effective but no individual radiator control so a comfortable living room meant an overheated bedroom. The supplies of crockery and cutlery were the bare minimum for 6 and meant having to run the dishwasher half empty.

The property was absolutely brilliant.

In a beautiful spot, and the host Richard was excellent. We would not use Sykes again though. We initially booked 14 nights, and decided a few days before the booking that we would like to add an extra night as we could see that the cottage was available, making 15 nights in total. Sykes were not helpful at all and wanted to charge an astronomical amount for booking an extra night (including a £30 amendment cost). This was not negotiable at all and not at all helpful.

The cottage is in a lovely secluded setting with deer, rabbits and other wildlife seen within the grounds whilst we were there.

It is located at the end of a very long drive and so I wouldn’t recommend it, if you don’t have your own transport. The cottage is in close driving distance of Bridlington, the lighthouse and other amenities. It was lovely and quiet as we were the only family on site at the time. The enclosed courtyard was great for the dogs as we didn’t have to worry about them escaping. The cottage had everything we needed. It is clean and modern and is stocked with soap, dishwasher tablets etc . There are two bathrooms one with bath and one with shower. Only minor issues were that there is no lock on the door of the bathroom with the shower and taller members of our group found the bed too short as they had footboards but other than that we enjoyed our holiday very much and would return and recommend to friends.

We really enjoyed our stay here, lovely walks from the door step and the grounds amazing.

Our main concern was that the showers extractor was not powerful enough, the walls after 3 of us had showered were very wet . But it's a great place to stay and we will be booking again next year .

Thank you for a lovely peaceful stay in fabulous, quiet and beautiful surroundings.

Overall we were very happy with Highcliffe cottage and Richard our host. Bedrooms were well appointed and comfortable. All linen and towels were clean. Kitchen was very well equipped. Richard was very happy to communicate and accommodate our needs on the same day of request. Plenty of parking space for our cars, as we travelled as 3 couples in separate vehicles. If I needed to be a little picky, I would suggest putting a warning about the step from kitchen to living room in the cottage description and maybe adding a non slip mat to shower and/or bath. Thank you again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at highcliffe cottage, the area was fantastic and peaceful.

The accommodation was also really nice, comfy and clean. I would highly recommend a stay!

We stayed at High Cliff Manor cottage for a week in mid June.

My 80 something parents stayed with us and the bungalow was well suited to their needs. The beds were comfortable, we all slept well. My parents would have liked a booklet/guide to the cottage (how things work eg shower/hot water etc.) and for local recommendations, but that is a minor note. A couple of small issues were dealt with quickly and without any fuss. The grounds are beautiful and peaceful, seeing deer and barn owls from the living room were daily highlights. We would be very happy to stay at the cottage again, we all had a great time. Many thanks

Lovely location and the cottage is fine.

We found a general lack of attention to detail and maintenance issues were our main bug bear. There is no welcome booklet so no instructions for operating the tv, cooker and hob. The shower needs replacing as it is intermittently hot and cold if put on a setting above low. The courtyard needed weeding and we witnessed rats running around which meant we could not allow our dog free access. There was no internet connection. The fire alarm is temperamental and this seems to be a known problem. All in we think Richard, the manager, is doing his best as this place could be a little gem with a bit more tlc.

Loved the property and location!

!! The open plan living area was great as it meant that everyone could socialise even when cooking in the kitchen. The beds were comfy (which is unusual!) and it was very clean. The location is great for walking to either North or South Landing and the town. It is also quite central if you want to drive to Brid or Filey. It’s a very quiet location with extensive grounds. Lots of wildlife etc. The only small issues we had was the water pressure is very low and this affected the shower and hot water taps , there is also only one shower which meant a bit of a queue on a morning. The WiFi isn’t great especially when guests arrived at the big house. It didn’t ruin our stay and we would definitely visit again.

An amazing cottage.

Everything provided that you could possibly need. Comfortable beds and pillows, and I'm hard to please! A fabulous location with easy access to a nature reserve, a lovely courtyard which would be super in summer, we were here over Christmas. Richard could not have been more helpful whenever we had a query. Had a lovely Christmas tree in the lounge.

We will definitely return and have recommended to family already saying how perfect it is and beautiful grounds and walks without getting in the car.

Thank you

FEEDBACK ALREADY MADE KNOWN TO OWNER BY MEANS OF THE VISITOR BOOK,BUT EVERYTHING WAS FIRST CLASS

Such a lovely cottage in a peaceful location.

Close to some stunning cliff walks and easy access to the beach. Our dog particularly enjoyed chasing the local wildlife around the large garden! Great dog friendly pubs and cafes nearby and easy driving distance to miles and miles of dog friendly beaches.

Beautiful place with amazing grounds.

The owner went over and above to make us welcome and to make our stay a positive experience. No one was staying at the Manor house, so we had full use of the amazing grounds. Thank you so much for an amazing break

A great property in such beautiful surroundings.

A place to go if you want to be out in the Yorkshire country side as it is so peaceful and quiet but only a short drive to the coast and all the amenities.
