    Beautiful location. Only problem - not enough seating for a cosy evening - one settee and one( not comfortable) armchair- and we were 2 couples so would have appreciated being able to sit as couples to relax in the evenings.

  • "My wife grew up in Pickering 6 miles away, and for 20 years we enjoyed trips from Hertfordshire back to 'Home' to see her family."

    Sadly her parents are no longer with us, but this gave us the opportunity 18 years later to explore places not seen in detail before, walking, and sight-seeing at the very special towns within reach. Lockton is a tiny village, and the property lies exactly across the road to a lovely church. Very friendly too. The property is perfectly set up for a family holiday, and we found it very comfortable, with all of the facilities we could want. Everything worked as it should. We were able to communicate with the owner with questions before our week, and to thank her for such a lovely week afterwards.

    Really enjoyed reading your feedback,so glad you enjoyed the cottage and the area. Property Owner

    Giles church, very much enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Very pretty, comfortable bedrooms, plenty of hot water, nice large TV, felt very at home and was sad to leave!

    It is really cosy with a log burner which we particularly enjoyed with the stormy weather we experienced. The kitchen and dining area are a really good size and the bedrooms are very comfortable. It is a really peaceful location, close to the Moors, Whitby and Robin Hoods Bay, as well as Dalby Forest. There is so much to do in the area that we will definitely be back.

  • "Beautiful location and beautiful cottage."

    Loved the patio and the garden. Nicely decorated and very homely. Plentiful selection of crockery etc. Our daughter loved her room, especially the zebra bedding! Plenty of storage space and nice fluffy towels. We found the double bed a little bit small for the 2 of us, but the mattress was comfy enough. The shower was a little less powerful than we are used to, but was a lovely deep bath. We really appreciated the off road parking, but was a little tricky to negotiate when the van next door was parked next to us. All in all though we were really happy with the cottage and would definitely recommend it!

    This is a gem absolutely fantastic, we could of moved in, the only thing I had a problem with was the metal bed frame it made a right noise in the night if you moved slightly other than that it's is a fantastic place we have booked again, will maybe have to sleep in the spare single room if the bed frame isn't upgraded

    Many thanks for your feedback. You had a point when we tried the bed it did squeak. All the nuts and screws were loose, but after tightening them all up, no squeaks. We do apologise for the squeaking, but are very pleased you otherwise enjoyed your stay. Lynne Property Owner

  • "We loved this cottage and it's location."

    Only 30mins or less away from everything we wanted to do or visit. Lovely to be able to sit in south facing garden. Would have been better for us to be Saturday to Saturday as only arrived after midnight on Friday. Lots of flies was the only downside... possibly from farm nearby or extreme hot weather during stay.

  • "Lack of information about how to turn the central heating on."

    Shower didn't work. Some local information would have been good ie Pubs, takeaways, local walks and places of interest. Cottage was better than expected from photos. Village very quiet.

    Thank you for your feedback, which we have taken on board. The heating is controlled via an app which is controlled by myself. The heating is on a timer and I have updated this in the information pack. If anyone wants to alter the heating I have asked them to contact me and will happily do so. The shower does work, and the cord needs to be pulled which turns it on. This is now mentioned in the information pack. I have updated the information pack with pubs, take always and local walks.

  • "Clean and tidy property."

    Excellent location. Parking difficult due to overgrown shrubbery. No welcome pack or instructions for anything so no idea how to work the heating, hot water or TV - initial lack of clarity on hot water was an issue which could be easily rectified for future visitors with instructions left out. Beds clean and tidy but mattresses were basic. Some basic cups and plates all in need of a little TLC. Room with single bed smelled of ... something stuffy. Overall we had a lovely time, but feel the property is in need of a lot of freshening up to bring it up to a higher standard than three star rating we are giving it.

The property

Thornton Dale 5 miles.

This charming, mid-terrace cottage sits in Lockton in the heart of the North Yorkshire Moors National Park.

Set over two floors and equipped to a great standard, 5 Church View is an excellent base for families and friends seeking exploration of this Yorkshire region.

After a day of walking, spend your down time in the lounge, relaxing upon the leather sofa as the crackle of the woodburner puts you at ease.

Allow the chef of the group to impress in the kitchen, while the rest of the group can set the dining table for a hearty feast!

Through the patio doors leads to the enclosed garden, a charming spot to enjoy a favourite beverage and chat away into the night.

Upstairs plays host to three charming bedrooms, including the master with double bed and balcony, along with a standard double and single bed, each presented with light tones and ample storage space.

From the door there is a plethora of superb walking routes, with the property benefitting from sitting in the North York Moors National Park, there’s so much natural beauty waiting to be explored; or take a stroll around the village of Thornton Dale, offering a choice of pubs, restaurants and the delightful Balderson’s Welcome Café and the Chocolate Factory for when you fancy a sweet treat!

Head to Pickering for a wider range of amenities, such as browsing a variety of independent stores, sampling local fare at The Rose Inn, or hopping aboard a classic steam train at the North Yorkshire Moors Railway for an 18-mile ride through the National Park – there's even a chance to spot some Harry Potter filming locations along the way!

North Yorkshire is filled with glorious scenery with ample opportunity to take part in outdoor activities, and if you enjoy woodland walks, then Dalby Forest is a must to which the visitor centre is only a 15 minute bike ride away.

For a day on the coast, venture to Whitby, where you can embark on a whale watching boat trip, climb the 199 steps for panoramic views, bathe on the beach or explore the Gothic Whitby Abbey.

With all this, plus the wonders of Scarborough just a scenic car journey away, a holiday at 5 Church View is sure to be a special one.
