"Well what a great find for our family reunion
This property is just perfect for a group stay with everything you could possibly need."
The cleanliness is 5star with space for everyone to feel comfortable.
My only issue which needs attending to is the dining chairs. At least three of them are about to give way and could cause someone to be hurt.
Thanks for a lovely stay.

"Hired the cottage as a family base for our daughters wedding."
Great spacious accommodation, full of original features and charm. Easily and comfortably accommodated 10 adults. Loved the conservatory. A big thankyou to Michelle for speedily securing access to it when a key was not present. We know this area very well and the cottage is perfectly situated to make the most of this beautiful area.
The outside spaces are large and could be stunning with a tidy up, plants and lawn overgrown but a minor detail . Totally recommend plum cottage for any large group ⭐️

"A clean and well presented property."
If I was being 'picky' a couple of items needed attention.
1. Some light bulbs were not working in the ceiling chandeliers in the kitchen and living room
2. No hive instructions in the welcome pack and the batteries needed replacing.
3. One of the kitchen sockets was not working.
BUT ...Plum Cottage was a great place to stay and my family thoroughly enjoyed their stay.

"What a great property."
Ideal for a large or small party. Perfect country location. Nice clean beds and towels. We were all quite disappointed with the cleanliness though. Lots of dust which needed removed from dining chairs before sitting down. Oven not cleaned. Bbq filthy. I dropped something on the bedroom floor and had to pull bedside cabinet out, I wish I hadn’t.
Bottle of water under couch in lounge and a child’s note saying do not enter our house.
Walled garden area could have done with a good sweep and lots of large weeds around all of the cottage. It is a beautiful property and they have thought of everything but need to look into the cleaning as unfortunately that will let them down.

"What a beautiful home and location."
We had a wonderful week (helped by the glorious weather) and thoroughly enjoyed Plum Cottage. It was very clean, extremely nicely presented and very comfortable. The garden was lovely and we enjoyed listening to the birds. Great location and perfect for walking straight from the door, and exploring the beautiful countryside. Hopefully we will return one day.
So pleased you had a relaxing holiday. Thank you for the lovely feedback Property Owner

"This is a rare instance where the photos do not do the property justice."
The cottage is spacious, clean and warm. An excellent location for a family holiday with plenty of outside space for the kids to run around in!
The cloakroom off the front hallway could do with some TLC, but the rest of the house is perfect.
I would happily stay here again

"We had a lovely week at Plum Cottage."
Lots of space and such a big garden. There is a lovely large dining room and kitchen. The conservatory was lovely for a morning coffee when the sun was shining. The lounge was big, bright and comfortable with 4 large sofas. The beds were comfortable with crisp white bed linen and there were good showers with plenty of hot water. Plenty of cupboards and storage space. Two bedrooms on the ground floor was great too.
The Stables Restaurant next door was amazing, well worth a visit. Their Sunday lunch was the best. Breakfast as we left was excellent too with
friendly staff and lovely surroundings. Lots of super places nearby to visit. Saltburn is only 10 mins away and Great Ayton was a delight too.
Thank you. We will return.

"A well equipped generally comfortable property (except for the downstairs double room which had a terrible bed, no bedside table or shelf - hence nowhere for a table or lamp, no chair to sit at makeup mirror on drawers)."
The rest of the house was very comfortable, and the owner's agent dealt quickly and efficiently with a small problem.

"Plum Cottage is situated in the grounds of Pinchinthorpe Hall in a very rural setting."
Large property consisting of two ground floor bedroom, both ensuite and one a family room. 2 double bedrooms on the 1st floor, sharing a large family bathroom. Large fully fitted dining kitchen with double doors to a courtyard, with tables and chairs and BBQ and another giving access to a conservatory. Large lounge with 4 comfy couches and TV, double doors leading to a large enclosed garden. This property has everything that is needed and would suit family groups or friends. Plenty of places to visit locally or ideal house to just chill out. A couple of things to consider, due to the rural nature of the cottage, there can be flies and spiders and in the warm weather the upstairs bedrooms can be very warm. Cottage managed locally and they ca be contacted by text at any time.

"The cottage was spacious and in a great setting however the furnishings were very dated and less than comfortable."
The standard of housekeeping was very poor with spiders and cobwebs in every room, a dishwasher full of dirty dishes awaited us on arrival and a teapot full of mould from previous tenants leaving it not emptied from the last use. The fault with the WiFi has gone on for months and needs to be resolved . This property could be much more with just a little attention to detail.

"The owners had recurrent problems with the internet - these had not been sorted."
It was not what we had been lead to believe. We had both young children and work demands that required WiFi - one of the reasons we choose Plum Cottage. For us it wasn’t working until Wednesday evening and we had to host the BT Open Reach engineers who needed access to the property. We weren’t informed about the problems beforehand and had to make enquiries ourselves on three successive days - Sykes had 1hour plus waiting times on the phone so no luck there. This is not okay. We would like to receive recompense for this situation, and it was made clear that Sykes would sort this out for us as they have with previous Holiday tenants.
We look forward to hearing from you.
Michelle - Odd Socks - was as helpful as could be - but this didn’t change the situation. The internet problem was not new - it caused difficulties for both our children and ourselves. Two of which live with autism and for which the ability to have internet connection is very helpful.
On a couple of other points - we would encourage the purchase of a freezer rather than suggesting a small ice box in a fridge is a freezer. The dishwasher is past its best. Cleaning under sofas and lower levels of coffee tables would be great.
Lovely and quiet - although it would be helpful to let tenants know that people have a right of way across the lawn to get to the walled garden and back - we had our children playing in the garden and strangers suddenly appearing and chatting to them.
Great space both internally and externally. Fantastic water pressure. Well stocked with cooking equipment.

"On arrival we found areas which were not satisfactorily cleaned, in particular the hob, the oven and grill and the fridge."
Very dusty and full of cobwebs. Underneath sofas were filthy. In fairness when we complained the cleaners returned and addressed most of this. The outside courtyard was dusty and poorly maintained, which we felt added to the serious issues we had with flies. We had to request removal of previous guests rubbish from the courtyard which had been left in bin bags. The patio furniture was also very dirty.The hot tap in the family bedroom was so stiff it was difficult to operate and it took until day 6 for this to be fixed. The Wifi did not work throughout our stay, which the owners representative knew about and we were not informed of before our arrival. We would have thought twice about booking this property had we known this as it was particularly inconvenient to some of our party needing to do some work. Also because of no internet we could only use tv in kitchen with DVD player .
We feel because of all of this a significant refund would be appropriate.

"We had a wonderful week in this house, it worked really well for a group of 4 adults and 3 children plus our very well behaved Springer Spaniel."
The lower ground wing was perfect for the family and young children .The older generation were able to enjoy a peaceful quiet night on the upper floor.
The French range probably needs a service. I have a gas Viking range, thus experience. The front left ring was very temperamental and I could not manage to heat the left oven to a high temp, pity we did not find a guide book, when there was so much detail on the heating system. But luckily I could roast the potatoes in the electric oven.
A burglar alarm was ringing for about 2 days in the unoccupied manor house next door, before being attended to, which was mildly irritating . Overall we enjoyed the property very much and found it very comfortable and practical, and would happily return.

"This is a beautiful cottage but had a few issues which hopefully were teething problems but nevertheless impacted on our enjoyment."
In addition, if you are thinking of taking children or animals then take caution as there are 2 ponds at the back of the hotel grounds that are hidden but are accessible quite easily from the cottage. We also had several rats in the courtyard which was a shame as it was beautiful. Hopefully that’s been sorted now.
