The Hayshed

From the pictures you post it didn't show you are literally on the busiest main road into Whitby.

Lorries were flying past at 5.30 am. Which isn't great on your holiday. The pictures don't show your sitting out looking at the road with noisy traffic. First appearances the property needs some tlc. Weeding all around the front and pots and baskets needed and a gravel driveway would provide a better first appearance. The decking needs cleaning and painting. The property had huge fly issues so we couldn't leave the windows open which was a Huge problem in the heat and had to drive to Sainsbury's to get fly spray. The windows needed cleaning and had cobwebs on them also. The welcome pack is disappointing from what we have received at other cottages. There has clearly been some thought with design. Like the little touches so well done. Shower was great. The mattress killed our backs as it is far too soft though, but that may be just us. There are issues with floor boards around the bed feels like some have gaps between them and carpet sinks but expect cleaners would know a out this. Great TV reception. For a quick weekend break it was fine and cheap but the cow shed would have been a better booking. Needs some tlc. Towels not included which should be really. Nice little property but does need some tlc and care. Far too close to the road for us. Ideal place to just sleep if your sight seeing as we were. Could be improved with a few touches though.

The Hayshed is in a lovely location for getting about, a nice welcome cake, off street parking was good too, thank you.

We couldn’t use the outside area, as needed a thorough clean due to bird poo on everything, including window frame. Stairs too steep and narrow for safety. Bathroom shower and toilet are good but the sink needs replacing with a proper basin, water doesn’t drain away properly and has rust.

A Great place to stay.

We had to contact the owner’s, who were quick to respond and went above and beyond to help us out. Already planning on returning.

We had a lovely stay in the Hayshed.

Very comfortable bed and everything you need...maybe a better frying pan. Great location. Would definitely stay again

We enjoyed our stay at the Hayshed.

It’s very close to all amenities, it’s comfy, clean and the owners are very helpful. The stairs are narrow so if you have problems with climbing stairs this property is not for you, but we had a great few days. Thank you.

Hi, this was a lovely break but there we're a couple of things to feed back to help.

The listing says towels are provided but later says only hand towels. One, I would suggest putting this together (it caught us out) and two, only one towel was provided. There were no bin liners in the bins, we managed but I wouldn't have liked leaving a messy bin. There was also no spray to clean down rhe work surfaces and as we tend to cook in cottages, that was a bit messy. Could I also suggest leaving a one pint of milk? The cake was so thoughtful, knowing guests on arrival can have a hot drink would be lovely. I would possibly consider replacing the bathroom sink as it holds water which becomes stagnant. Everything else was really lovely. Great shower, comfy bed, parking etc. I hope this feedback helps.

We had a lovely holiday at the Hayshed.

It is ideally situated for Whitby and Robin Hood's Bay with amazing beaches for us all and golf courses for my husband. Great eating places and supermarkets close by. The property itself needs a bit of tlc as it seems a little tired. Apart from that, we loved it. The paddock at the rear of the property was ideal for our little dog and the busy road didn't disturb our sleep due to the very comfy bed and the fresh air. A great place to stay due to the closeness of all the places we wanted to visit.

Great property as described really enjoyed it needed abit more cleaning felt like maybe not been used for a while cobwebs and dust brilliant location, minor issues delt with promptly thanks again.

Lovely long Easter weekend in The Hayshed!

Great location, very close to Robin Hoods Bay & Whitby. Cosy, clean, quirky & relaxed accommodation for two. Pet friendly, so it was superb for us! Fantastic, friendly local pub with great food! Highly recommended Thank you for our stay Mike, Lucy, & Jess the dog
