  • "Positives Beautifully finished barn conversion, adequately comfortable Underfloor heating easy to use Lovely part of the world Great butchers - try the Barnsley lamb chops Bakery."

    - superb Negatives Have an awareness that there are NO WINDOWS, it was warm during our stay and the doors aren't an option for sleeping. This was something I overlooked on booking and it had been mentioned in earlier reviews. As people highlighted before the blinds are thin and the external lights have sensors that go off throughout the night and it did disturb our sleep, to the point that we went home a day early. The courtyard setting is very much for the owners use,not for either of the conversions and as such their vehicles can disturb you. The other things taking your own hand wash, dishwasher tablets, tin foil and bin liners are now added to our list for future reference. Enjoyed our visit to that part of the world, but wouldn't be returning.

    The barn is grade 2 listed the openings could only be replaced with what was originally there but we are looking into other ways to get air flow in to the barn. We will replace the blinds in the bedroom with black out blinds. There is washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets & clingfilm plus bin bags left in the under sink cupboard & in the drawer.

  • "Comfortable, clean cottage."

    Bathroom clean and spacious plenty of hot water. Bedroom warm, plenty of storage and bed comfortable. Lounge/dining/kitchen spacious and comfortable. Enough cutlery for two people. Would be nice if you changed the bath towels to larger ones for next year. The cottage is on the outskirts of the village down a lane so it’s very quiet yet easy access by car to many areas of beauty.

  • "The property is in a fantastic location."

    Open fields to the rear of the property, the patio has full sun for most of the day. The area full of local walks, and 10 min away from the railway station and bus stops. Disappointed with towels bleach stained and old. The crockery is well used but adequate. Cleaning materials available. The only big issue was the lack of opening windows, to get air into the property one had to leave doors open, not safe at night,

  • "Nice conversion, comfortable sofa and bed which could have been better if it had the correct size duvet on."

    Good size shower room with rainfall shower But no extractor which meant room stayed wet for a long time, probable cause of twisted difficult to shut door and no hand soap. The toilet seat also needs replacing, very slow WiFi, key safe difficult to use, next number moves when inputting code. No visitor book, no info on local pubs or restaurants, towels very hard and small, garden very overgrown not like photos in details,

    The extractor fan is switched on & off from outside the bathroom, the previous occupants will have switched it off. The extractor comes on with the light switch. The toilet seat has been replaced 7 there is plenty of information leaflets in the rack. Key safe is the same key safe that most properties use. Property Owner

    The cottage itself was lovely, but we could not find instructions for the underfloor heating so we had to experiment to get this working, but once we figured it out it was wonderful and the cottage retained the warmth long after we had turned it off. Would benefit from a mop or something to wipe away wet paw prints. Although we always cleaned our dog before she came into the cottage there were a couple of times when she was quicker than us!! The bed was the best we have ever slept in a holiday cottage.

    There is mop & hoover available up on request I will make this more clearer in the barn guide. Property Owner

  • "Once again we enjoyed our stay at Low Barns East."

    The only slight problem was a frozen up ice box in the fridge, didn't cause us any problems, but it could do with being defrosted now and again. There is no really secure outside space around the cottage if you bring a dog with you, although this is pointed out before you come and it wouldn't stop us coming again, hopefully next year. We discovered that the pub, the Plough, has a really nice beer garden in the rear, and it's dog friendly. We also spent a little more time in Sleights this time and discovered some really good little walks around the place, the butcher's, Radfords, was as good as ever.

  • "A nice property in a great location for exploring the East coast and North Yorkshire moors."

    Rural setting with nice dog walks right from the doorstep. It was a shame that the owners didn't welcome us or acknowledge us in any way during our stay, which I found a bit odd. We were staying in the recent heat wave and found it extremely hot especially with no windows that could be opened throughout the property. Given other reviews from people staying in the property, I would of thought that a fan would have been provided! Also having a dog, we would have found it useful to have a vacuum cleaner and a mop and bucket rather than just a dust pan and brush. A BBQ would also have been nice.

  • "The cottage was described accurately on the listing."

    It was a good location and a comfortable enough stay. It is always a disappointment when there is not sufficient toilet paper provided for a week long stay and the very bare minimum in the way of cleaning products or dish cloths. There was a lot of dust on the beams which wasn’t very pleasant and nothing to open the ceiling windows to ventilate the place during the night. Being woken up at 8.15 on Monday morning by (presumably) the owners car being power washed right outside our bedroom window was a bit of a pain! Got the feeling we were rather tolerated than welcome! We had to go and buy some new pillows as the ones provided were uncomfortable and lumpy. We wouldn’t go back to that particular cottage again but the area is beautiful.

    We had a very enjoyable stay. Barn was spacious and comfortable and on the whole had everything we needed. The underfloor heating ensured a warm welcome following days out in chilly December. We would recommend Lowdale East Barn without hesitation. Our only feedback would be that the barn listing states that there is no shaver point in the property and visitors would need to bring an adaptor to charge for example an electric toothbrush.

    Cottage extremely nice and warm thanks to the underfloor heating. Fantastic shower with piping hot water, very comfortable bed. Great TV for evenings and everything we needed. Just a couple of suggestions having a dog it would have been handy to have a bucket or hosepipe fitted out back to clean her when coming in from muddy walks to save messing the barn. Also a kitchen roll and salt and pepper in the kitchen would have been handy plus some soap in the bathroom to wash hands. Only one little negative the security lights out the back shine straight into the bedroom. Apart from that would highly recommend this barn as it's a great base for exploring the beautiful area.

    The Property was clean and spacious but, we felt, was lacking in the personal touches for a luxury property. There wasn’t any kitchen cleaner, washing up liquid and only 1 toilet roll, whilst this isn’t a huge problem we would have expected the basics in a property like this. It is listed as dog friendly and some information about walking routes from the property would have been greatly appreciated. There is a public footpath which is mentioned but does run fairly close to the back of the barn and is used frequently, therefore may not be suitable for all dog owners. Saying that we thoroughly enjoyed our week here and would hopefully love to return.

    The views are lovely and the location is very quiet. It’s an excellent walking centre with footpaths from the doorstep. The accommodation is very simple, even basic. It’s listed as dog friendly but dogs are not allowed on the furniture or in the bedroom. Whitby and the Esk Valley villages are in easy reach by train or on foot. Steam trains from the wonderful North York Moors run through the local station regularly (but may not stop for passengers). If you like simple but attractively situated accommodation with plenty of good walks on your doorstep this is for you.

    Several reviewers have commented on the state of the long drive but the worst is the road past The Salmon Leap pub (now closed) and station. You can drive though a private tarmac road just after the Spar and butchers on you way into Sleights which is better. There is no secure dog area which some might find a problem our Greyhound goes on a lead because of wildlife so we were not concerned. Asked to park car beyond gate to paddock but it needs two people as a simple gate hook would stop the gate closing. No hover as we like to clean up before leaving just a brush and pan. I did think that the available tea/coffee etc was poor. One tea bag each and only one toilet roll. Notice asking not to put food down the sink but no kitchen towel to enable plates to be wiped and fat from pan. A trip to Spar was definitely needed. These are little niggles but having stayed in many Skyes Cottages I do think they could be improved.

Wi Fi was BT and fast with no drop out. Nice location with field all around. Well placed for Whitby, Robin hoods bay, Scarborough, Filey and Bridlington as well as a host of other places. Try the Stables at Cross Butts for a good meal, not cheap but worth it, also the three Jolly Sailors Burniston on the way to Scarborough, cheaper but still good. Both serve hand pumped beer. Be aware that the location is down a gravel track. Luckily we were in a 4x4. if we had not taken the dog we would have gone in the MG and had to park else where.
