“For me it was the stairs, not very much foot room, banister was on inside where steps where smallest, it is due to me having bad mobility.”

We did not realize it was like that. But the rest of it was fine, friendly always warm, kitchen had to read to use microwave and oven they had left instructions for all to read, We did go at it's worst time constant rain so every where was muddy. We made the best of the time. The cottage was done up in old fashioned way as take it's a listed building. . The only problems we had stairs for me and the lap of the god's the weather I must have been bad. Thank you.

“warm and comfortable”

We stayed here for a week and found the cottage very comfortable. there is a distinct lack of surrounding amenities so need to travel for basic items. There is nowhere for a dog to roam freely on site.
Mrs Haslam September 2019

“Lovely comfortable cottage.”

Bed extremely comfortable. Rooms very spacious. Bedrooms had no wardrobes only cost hangers on back of bedroom doors. Cottage nice and warm, had no need to use log burner as radiators were sufficient. Cottage was for four people, however on this occasion only two of us went. Lounge seating would not be adequate for four people to sit comfortably and watch tv. Also not enough mugs/cups for four people. Only had two decent mugs for tea/coffee. Areas of kitchen could have been cleaner. Microwave, kettle, cooker and worktops weren’t as clean as expected. However, there was fruit and milk left for us. Having said we did have an enjoyable weekend. Just a few things need to be a little better. Otherwise a very nice cottage.
Mr Ramsden September 2019

“The property was advertised as having a sealed secure yard for dogs however this was not the case.”

No instructions for the cooker were provided. Could possibly do with an external light. Heating was intermittent but very good when in operation. Otherwise really good cottage with the extras provided on arrival.
Mr Sullivan August 2019

“The cottage is a old building and it's starting to show.”

Wallpaper is peeling in the master bedroom, which is also damp and musty. Some coffee mugs would be great. Everything else is fine here. The pint ok milk in the fridge was a welcome gift.
Mr Ellis July 2019

“The cottage is nice but lacks the basics no WiFi, not enough glasses and cups only 4of each, beds very comfy in a lovely area rug in front of fire grubby.”
Dr Bolton June 2019

“Sofa is a bit hard to get up from.”

improved clothes hanging options would be appreciated I wasn't expecting the internet connection to be so poor.
Mrs Jackson June 2019

“Nice and warm needed it with the weather we had.”

Didn’t need the wood burner. It was supposed to be Flaming June. The settee and chair and toaster need upgrading. Didn’t do the full week for the bad weather that was about to come over the next few days. Overall would consider staying again in the future.
Mr Latham April 2019

“This cottage is in a lovely quite location but only a short distance from Scarborough and Pickering.”

The cottage itself was ideal for myself and two teenage children. Very comfortable and well presented,even a fresh pint of milk in the fridge awaits you.Would certainly recommend.
Mrs Anderson April 2019

“Headon Yard Cottage was a lovely place to stay with my 2 children and small dog.”

The cottage was very clean, warm and comfortable. The owner was very welcoming and left some lovely touches such a packet of dog treats, bowl of apples and fresh milk. The area was lovely, set in a courtyard adjacent to the owners house. The only thing was that the cottage did not have a garden. we would normally just let the children and dog play in the garden but we could not do this. However, this was only a minor problem as we were out and about most days. I would recommend Headon Yard Cottage for a nice quiet comfortable break.
Mrs Reynolds March 2019

“It was lovely to arrive rather late and find the fire made up and milk in the fridge.”

So with the fire lit and a cup of tea to warm us we settled in quickly. Then real feather pillows and the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in. Many thanks
Mr Ruffles October 2018

“The cottage was really cosy and covered all our needs, there was milk and tea/coffee on arrival.”

The keys are easy to get and leave securely at the cottage. The position is very peaceful but so well positioned for visiting local areas.
Mrs Goddin July 2018

“The cottage is in a lovely peaceful location, it's spacious, clean and a relaxing environment.”

It lacks certain facilities which if added would add to the experience and make the stay more enjoyable. No wifi, not enough cups or glasses, no wardrobes, no bowls to use in the microwave. A better welcome pack that is visible on arrival not hidden away in a drawer. If you want to get away from it all it's ideal.
Mr Fletcher July 2018

“A fantastic cottage, lovely surroundings and extremely well situated for getting out and about.”

Liked it so much we've booked again for next year.
Mrs Kerr July 2018

“The cottage was just right for us,easy parking,good location and spotlessly clean Thank You”
Ms Gagliardi June 2018

“Headon Yard Cottage is a lovely, spacious and comfortable home located up a peaceful leafy lane.”

My stay was during a heatwave but the thick walls kept the cottage beautifully cool which I'm sure would make it equally cosy in winter along with the wood-burner in the living room. The modern kitchen is well equipped, the beds are comfortable with fluffy pillows and duvets, and the water pressure to the shower is fantastic! The only negatives I experienced were that phone & wifi signals are very limited (although I found this quite a relief!), and the stairs to the bedrooms and bathroom are very steep which would make the property unsuitable for anyone less mobile - but these minor issues aside I would highly recommend this property as I thoroughly enjoyed staying here.
Mr Hobson June 2018

“Great little cottage, booked a week for me and my mum with our border terrier for a surprise, we all loved it.”

Its nice and cosy, the wood fire is a nice addition but we didnt get a chance to use it. Very clean, plenty of cutlery and pots and pans. Theirs loads of walks you can do from the cottage, mainly across fields on public bridleways with some great scenery. Only downside is the road leading up to it has a few hidden potholes so watch out.
Mr Rogerson May 2018

“Had a nice stay.”

Property could have done with more cups and glasses (4 of each not sufficient when have company). No wifi and lack of phone service signal at the cottage would deter us from returning.
Mr Latham March 2018

“Fantastic cottage, all the facilities you need.”

A real home from home. Will visit again had a super week. So close to Pickering, Malton one way and Scarborough the other way.
Mr Beddow February 2018

“The cottage was lovely.”

Very clean, plenty of room and extremely cosy once that gorgeous log fire was burning away. Would highly recommend this cottage to anyone who wants a great little break away in North Yorkshire.
