"First class and could not have been better"

"The cottage was immaculately clean and functional."
There are strict rules in place for dogs sleeping arrangements. The surrounding village has no shops, and there is only one pub doing food on the outskirts of the village. The other pub looks run down. A lovely cottage, very welcoming hosts. Returned an item left by us at the cottage. Thank you

"Comfortable, spotless and extremely good location for travelling to the local beauty spots."
We visited Staithes, Robin Hoods Bay, Pickering, Thornton Le Dale. Great pub down the road ( Go left outside the cottage) The Coachman. We were so comfortable in May Cottage, the water was hot the Heating was wonderful and the beds were comfy. Definitely would stay again. The parking was an absolute bonus too.
-
"Lovely property in a convenient location, and beautifully furnished."
The little welcome pack was a lovely touch, as was the personal call from the owners to check that everything was alright. It is on a main road so there is noise at night but this might not bother everyone.
-
"On arrival at May Cottage we were pleasantly surprised at how the Cottage had been decorated."
It certainly made our Christmas feel like home from home. The cottage is a little gem. It was warm, inviting and the cleanliness was of a very high standard. There was everything to hand and the owners were welcoming and not intrusive. The property certainly has a relaxing vibe and there are plenty of walks nearby for your furry friends. We will most certainly be returning.

"We had a fantastic week at May Cottage."
It’s a lovely property, was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated with great facilities. Owners Michael and Julia were friendly and welcoming, on hand next door if needed but also respectful of our privacy too. The location is great for both North York Moors National Park, villages and coastline - there’s so much to do. We were also given a friendly welcome by the locals in the Peacock pub over the road, who have a free pool table (very popular with our so !) and serve great local ales brewed in Snainton. Bring your own washing up brush and liquid as well as your supplies. We’ll be back to explore more!

"We very much enjoyed our stay at May Cottage."
The accommodation is very clean and comfortable, the kitchen is well equipped and as we were lucky enough to have sunny weather, we made full use of the little garden area. The owners were friendly and welcoming and the groceries they left for us were much appreciated. There are some good dog walks around the village and there is lots to do for all ages in the area.

"The cottage is immaculate, comfortable and in a good location."
Being on the bus route between Pickering and Scarborough and near some lovely walks if you don’t want to use the car. The owners are very friendly and the workmanship in the cottage a credit to them. The cottage is well equipped to self cater. The coachman pub is a short walk away and serves lovely food. The staff are lovely and it is dog friendly.

"Our second visit to May Cottage was equally as enjoyable as our first."
Excellent dog friendly cottage with all the facilities you can need and extremely friendly, accommodating owners who make you feel very welcome whilst remaining unobtrusive. Unbelievably clean and well maintained. Parking is very handy and location is great, giving easy drives out to Thornton le Dale, Pickering, Scarborough, Whitby and York. Can't fault it, looking forward to booking again in the future.

"A brilliant place to stay."
We were two adults and two children and the location and cottage were everything we needed. The cottage was a really good size and very well equipped. The only thing missing for us was a washing machine, but other than that couldn’t fault it. Lovely owners who gave us some great recommendations too.
-
"I stayed here for 4 nights with my adult son and our dog."
May Cottage provided the perfect base from which to relax and enjoy the local area and beyond. We explored parts of the North Yorkshire coast that we hadn’t managed before. Julia and Mick were lovely hosts and sharing their local knowledge with us enhanced our experience. The cottage was immaculately clean and extremely comfortable with lovely artwork throughout. I would highly recommend this accommodation to anyone that wants to be able to enjoy various walks from the doorstep but within easy driving distance of lots of lovely beaches.
-

"Beautiful Cottage, very clean and comfortable."
The hosts were very welcoming and the welcome package of milk, tea bags etc is a nice touch. The property is located in a great area for exploring the North Ridding. There is a nice pub 100m away and the locals were very friendly and chatty. The only drawback is the road noise at night if you have the windows open.
-

We have never stayed anywhere as clean as May Cottage. The beds were very comfortable and everything so well presented. Thank you for the welcome basket and beautiful flowers too! Owners were welcoming, helpful and unobtrusive.
-

"Stunning little cosy cottage renovated to the highest standard and spotlessly clean."
Had everything needed for the week. A warm welcome from the owners and a very helpful getting started manual. The beds were super comfortable and the shower and bath fantastic. It was a great base to explore the east Yorkshire coastline and north Yorkshire Moors.
-
"Excellent dog friendly cottage, exactly as described with private parking and nice little courtyard with table and seating."
Fully equipped with everything you could need plus a nice little welcome hamper and a folder detailing local walks, pubs etc. Cottage was finished to a high standard, was unbelievably clean and felt very safe with emergency lighting, fire doors, extinguishers etc. Owners live next door and were very friendly but totally unobtrusive. Stayed for a week in early May 2023 and intend to visit again.

"Lovely holiday cottage."
The building is a converted barn, and has been renovated to a very high standard, very clean and tidy, and everything has been thought of, everything you need in the kitchen, all new and clean. A lovely touch of a welcome basket with essentials, included on arrival. May Cottage is centrally located in the village, with easy access to local walks, and a short drive to the top of the riding, with superb views. The owners are delightful and unobtrusive, and nothing was too much trouble, I am sure.
-
"Me my partner and 2 dogs booked this on the morning of 28th December for 1 week last minute get away and it did not disappoint."
Cottage is so cosy warm and extremely clean. We met Michael briefly when we arrived and he was very helpful and friendly. So cosy and all kitchen equipment was a high standard. The bed was so comfortable and the shower is amazing. Great wifi as I was working a few days during my stay and had no issues whatsoever. I would recommend this cottage to anyone and we are already planning on going back very soon. Thanks Michael and Julia for a perfect last minute getaway we are very grateful.

"May Cottage exceeded our expectations in every way."
It has been renovated to a very high standard, the beds were very comfortable, and although the property was on the high street, the traffic noise was negligible. The owners who live next door were very welcoming. The property is ideally situated being close to the coast, but away from the bustle, and also convenient for trips inland to Pickering etc. Our grand-daughter thought the cottage was magical.
-
"What a great find."
The property is ideally situated for exploring the area. We were really happy with the standard of the property, it was very comfortable, had everything we needed and to say immaculately clean is an understatement! It is clear a great deal of love and attention has been put into the cottage. The brilliant paintings and little quirks make it a special place. Julia and Michael could not have been better hosts and are genuinely lovely people. We will be back!
-
"Super clean and comfortable little cottage."
Michael and Julie are excellent hosts who really want you to enjoy the cottage. May Cottage is well placed for visiting many places without travelling too far and has a lovely pub The Coachman with good food just a short walk away. There are some pretty walks around the village. We are looking forward to revisiting soon.
-

-
"May Cottage is beautiful."
Everything clean and fresh. Lovely decor. Comfy bed (we used the back bedroom) super luxury bedding. The bathroom and power shower were fantastic. Very nice welcome basket was appreciated. Nice to have private parking and the enclosed yard looking out onto garden was lovely. The owners Julia and Michael were lovely and handy living next door. I loved this place and would stay again.
-
"Fantastic stay."
Everything in place. Very warm reception and the courtesy basket was a bonus. We are already planning to revisit for our wedding anniversary.
-
"May Cottage is a truly beautiful place to stay."
So much attention to detail and beautiful styling, a real pleasure to be in. Everything about this Cottage has been done to a very high standard and the result is a relaxing place to stay. The appliances and heating were simple to use and all instructions provided. The courtyard rear is a real sun trap and although small it is secure and private and even in March we sat outside and enjoyed eating Al fresco. The bed in the master bedroom is supremely comfortable, we did not use the second bedroom but everything about this Cottage is quality so I would imagine it would be of the same high standard as the master bedroom. The whole cottage was spotlessly clean. May Cottage has private parking which is a real bonus being on the high street. The Cottage is on the main road but noise is not an issue, yes you can hear the traffic but it just melts into the background and does not detract in any way from the overall lovely ambience of staying here. Micheal and Julia the owners live next door and they are a really lovely couple. On hand for anything if needed and a friendly Good Morning but never obtrusive. I would highly recommend staying at May Cottage as a base for any reason and would definitely book here again.
-
"Beautiful little gem."
Had a wonderful stay. Cottage is perfect, has the most comfortable bed. Great location for sightseeing. Owners are so helpful and the welcome pack was a kind gesture. It is on main road as described but we didn't find the road noise a problem. Highly recommend a stay here. Thank you for a wonderful break
-
"Immaculate cottage couldn’t fault it."
Excellent location, not too far away from York. Two pubs close by and owners next door who are more than willing to assist if needed. Would definitely stay here again!
-
"May Cottage is a credit to Julia and Michael."
It was immaculate and the extra touches like the welcome basket and pumpkins for Halloween and fresh flowers were a lovely touch. We have stayed in various cottages but this was by far the most extra special. The big beds were so comfortable and the shower so powerful. We look forward to visiting again in 2022. Many thanks again
-
"We had lovely stay in May Cottage."
I especially appreciated the fresh flowers on our arrival and selection of refreshments like tea, cappuccino and milk in the fridge, which was very handy. There was everything we needed and lovely owners Julia and Michael just next door, made sure we are OK. The property is located on the main road so easy to get to places in no time. We have also enjoyed lovely walks with our dog around Snainton.
-

"We loved our stay at May Cottage."
The cottage was spotless on arrival, spacious rooms and more than enough cutlery, and pots and pans so it is easy to have meals in. Smart TV was a bonus so we could watch Netflix on an evening! It is in a lovely location great for dog walks and not too far a drive to get to Scarborough, Whitby and Cayton Bay. Nearby pubs were nice. We have a nervous rescue dog who absolutely loved his stay he was so relaxed. Michael and Julia were so nice and we really appreciated the milk and welcome pack with tea bags ect on arrival, thanks so much for a lovely stay.

"Great cottage, clean, spacious, handy base to visit, Scarborough, Whitby, York."
Beds really comfy, toilet downstairs as well as bathroom upstairs. Large kitchen. Only downside was some road noise which you hear upstairs in the bedrooms, I was ok but my teenage daughter did struggle with the noise at night. A set of earplugs did the job. Would definitely go back again

"May cottage is immaculate, spotlessly clean and fitted out to the highest of standards and quality."
The cottage is superbly located to explore the North Yorkshire Moors & all it has to offer, and the East Coast is also easily accessible. The owners Michael and Julia are lovely, and always available if needed & are extremely knowledgeable about the area & further afield. The welcome basket provided is really thoughtful, right down to the milk in the fridge. This was our second visit to the cottage but definitely will not be our last. Denise & Gary

"May Cottage is a lovely place to stay ."
It has been renovated to a high standard and decorated extremely tastefully ,preserving the character of the property with interesting up to date styling . The cottage was spotlessly clean on arrival with care and attention to the covid requirements. The owners are warm and welcoming and you genuinely feel that it is important to them that you have enjoyed your stay. The outside space is small but means if you have a dog you can let them out safely . It is a little sun trap with pretty plants. The setting for exploring the area is prefect with lots to see and do and there are 2 pubs close by which is convenient and both are nice and friendly. Thank you for a lovely week Kathryn, David and Shelby
-

"The hardest thing is driving down a busy road looking for a door number."

"May Cottage is beautiful!"
We (4 adults and 2 dogs) stayed for 7 nights and the facilities were perfect! There was parking for 2 cars and the cottage itself was big enough to accommodate us all. The cottage itself was cleaned to the highest of standards and made our stay not only pleasant but made us feel safe in these times! The Cottage has everything that you need, a well equipped kitchen and the welcome pack that Julia & Mike left was a nice added touch (the dogs loved their treats too).
-
"May cottage is a beautiful cottage which has been lovingly restored to a high standard."
Friendly owners who left us a helpful welcome basket with added extras to keep our children happy! Very comfy beds and a large bath and powerful shower meant a great start to the day. Local pub ‘the coachman’ was a short walk and had friendly owners and was great to see locals arriving on their horses. The cottage is situated ideally for exploring the coast and moors and has lovely local walks through the surrounding countryside.

We were a family of four plus one dog and it felt like home. The hosts were superb...very friendly and approachable. The cottage is close to two local pubs and a fantastic fish and chip shop.

We will certainly return in the near future.
