On your web site you state The Loft as a Fridge/Freezer it actually is an Ice .... On your web site you state The Loft as a Fridge/Freezer it actually is an Ice Box within the Fridge,just a minor point which could be important to some people,but apart from that everything was fine

Mr Sams, September 2020

Very comfortable, and nicely decorated.. ApprecIated the tea, coffee, milk and biscuits waiting for us on arrival. It saved an immediate search to find a village shop!

Was nice to arrive at the loft and find fresh milk,teabag,coffee and some lovely biscuits there for you and not having to unpack all your food etc before having a nice cuppa after travelling there.. Wonderful location and great place to be if you like a bit of walking. Owners were very helpful and gave us lots of information about places to go to see and places to eat etc. Will be looking to book again in the future

Mr Scales, August 2020

Great location.. ..quiet, peaceful. The Loft is roomy and well appointed, and there’s a tranquil spot in the garden with table and chairs to sit out at if you’re lucky with the weather. NCN1 is a short cycle away which permits cycling to Robin Hoods Bay to the north, and Scarborough to the south. Recommended!

The Loft is cosy, beautifully appointed, very comfortable and well located for a self catering holiday in a stunning area between Whitby and Scarborough.. We walked every day (the weather was sunny) and were delighted to be able to return to the Loft to relax in the evenings. We would certainly consider returning in the future.

The loft was brilliant.. We were met by Pippa who made us feel very welcome,she was very helpful with her knowledge of the local area and afar. The cottage was far better than the pictures. It was converted to a very high standard with all modern appliances whilst retaining the quirky side as well. The loft is in a ideal location for visiting all villages,town and cities. The location is peaceful with views to die for and ohh that bed you could get lost in it, best nights sleeps for ages. To sum up A little bit of heaven.

This property was amazing value

I can only echo what the previous reviewers have said...The Loft is absolutely a lovely place to stay. It has everything you need for a peaceful holiday. Spotlessly clean, chairs and bed really comfy. Superb shower. If you are cooking you'll find a well stocked kitchen area however there are a couple of good pubs fairly close by. Also a number of cafés and tea rooms. Great location for walking and cycling. If you like to see nature close up have a walk to the bottom of ravenscar cliffs and watch the seals. It was the cherry on the cake for me. The owners Pippa and Graham are really helpful if you need any local info etc. Will definitely be returning. ( hope you're making progress with the pond)

Where do i start , we both loved The Loft as soon as we walked in so cosy and cute, everything is just wonderful, decorated to a very high standard with attention to detail. Pippa and Graham have thought of everything you would need with lots of extras. Loved looking at the animals they keep as pets and also loved picking the lovely apples off the trees in the garden. The loft is well situated for visiting around the area with lots of walks and places to see including the seals at Ravenscar which was great to see. Well done Pippa and Graham on this wonderful holiday let and look forward to staying again soon.

The Loft was spotless, beautifully furnished with lots of attention to detail and just about everything we could want provided..

The best location from which to explore the North York Moors and the Yorkshire coast. A beautiful property with very friendly owners providing excellent advice on activities and walks in the area. The property is very peaceful and romantic. We were greeted with just the sound of cows each day. We would love to return in the near future. There is also a nice family run pub within 3 miles.

The owners were lovely people, everything we needed was provided.. We will certainly go again and would recommend this property to everyone.

The loft is beautiful, oak beams, low windows and very quirky. We really loved our holiday there. It was excellent, and all the "little extras" were provided, even shampoo and shower soap. The owners, Graham and Pippa, were lovely people, and nothing was too much trouble, very helpful with places to visit, shop, etc. The North Yorkshire area is very beautiful and we would definitely visit again.
