Really comfortable, modern accommodation, would definitely stay here again

Mrs Chester, September 2020

We had every thing at the cottage to make our holiday enjoyable .. Good weather was a bonus.

Mr Sumpter, September 2020

August 2020

Well located property near beach and holiday park which the kids enjoyed play ground and rides.. Also property on bus route.

Mr Coates, August 2020

July 2020

Good location for sight seeing.. Knew of the holiday park behind accommodation but not too noisy. Didn’t know of owners children who played in garden, was noisy but not often. First impressions was clean but looked closer and was disappointed especially in these times. Couldn’t be confident that every surface had been sanitized, spent time doing it ourselves. Overall a place to recommend.

We had a lovely time at the cottage.. It is very spacious, comfortable and lovely and warm. It was incredibly quiet over Christmas which was lovely but not sure what it would be like in the summer as next door to a caravan site. It is only a ten minute walk to a fantastic beach so we were on it everyday with our dog, she loved it. The house and garden are very dog friendly. The owners were very helpful and friendly. We would certainly recommend this cottage to family and friends.

Mrs Dale, December 2019

The property is located on a really nice quiet street not too far from a gorgeous wide and long sandy beach.. The owners of the property were nice, friendly and unobtrusive. A lovely walk to Filey town centre takes approximately 45 mins along the beach and is little quicker taking the path on the Cliff top. Other places going in the opposite direction is Reighton sands and Bempton cliffs which is a bird sanctuary. Even though our stay was over the Christmas/New year period the weather was very kind to us. There is quite a large Holiday homes park nearby so I can only comment on the time of year we were there as it may get busier during the summer season. All in all we had a really nice time.

I stayed in Hawthornden with my daughter for a week and found this to be a lovely place to stay, it is attached to the owners home, but you wouldn't know as it's very private, it was spotlessly clean and tidy, the log burner was very efficient and you can buy logs from the owner, there is easy access to Filey, Scarborough, Bridlington and Whitby, the village of Hunmanby is a favourite of mine and would recommend The White Swan and Piebald for eating out.. I would definitely recommend Hawthornden to family and friends and will return the next time I am staying in this area

We stayed here with our dog for 4 nights, the cottage was comfortable, clean and had plenty of room in all rooms, there's a small room with the washer, iron etc in. There are wall heaters you can switch on and a wood burner if you need to use it, the garden is enclosed and private with plenty of room for our dog to run around and play ball. The beds were comfy and not hard . You can see rabbit's and squirrels in the next garden which is the owners from your side window , Walking distance to the beach and Primrose valley shop etc. And not too far to visit other towns . This cottage is ideal place to visit beaches and walks with your dog without driving too far. I do recommend staying here .

Mrs PoultonMAIN ACC, November 2019

Mrs Jones, September 2019

We loved the cottage very much and the surrounding area was brilliant for our 5 year old grandson.. Filey was great with its lovely beach and good restaurants. Cannot fault anything. Thank you

Mrs Jorgensen, July 2019

Hawthornden Cottage was beautiful and local to plenty of places to walk to.. It was extremely easy to book through Sykes and everything went really smoothly. This is definitely a cottage we will return to in the near future.

Mr Brown, July 2019

Enjoyed our holiday the weather was beautiful the accommodation was well furnished and dog friendly. Did a lot of walking around the Primrose Valley site which has greatly improved. Visited Coble landing on Bank Holiday Monday - it was packed!! with day trippers, a little overbearing for my little dog. Also visited Scarborough which has had a revamp very much improved and walked along to Sea Life all very clean and tidy. The East Coast is on the rise to attract more visitors. LeTour Yorkshire starts 4 May 2019. We will be back of course. Thank Mandy & James and the boys on their Easter Egg hunt.

Mr Sewell

Cottage was very clean and had all the facilities expected.. Very quiet which is just what was needed!

Mr Laing

Lovely property, well situated for local resorts like Whitby, Scarborough, Bridlington etc.. Easy access to the beach for a walk to Filey (about an hour). Property clean and tidy, nice secure garden for the dog to wander around, we had a wonderful break.

Mrs Fowler

We thoroughly enjoyed our week staying at Hawthornden.. The cottage was spacious and comfortable. The enclosed garden was a plus for our Labrador. The location was good with the beach within walking distance and well placed to explore the local area. We would like to return to stay again one day.

We had a good holiday good base to get out & about to see lots places

Mrs Hardcastle

The accommodation was far better than we expected .. Will be returning next year

Mrs Thomson

May 2018

This cottage certainly had the wow factor.. It had everything that we could possibly need and more. The weather was very kind to us and we sat out in the lovely private garden. The bus service is very good and the bus stop is very near. The walk along the beach to Filey was easy even for two recycled teenagers like ourselves. We loved it and hope to be back age permitting....

Mr Pezet

March 2018

Hawthornden is an excellent cottage.. Well heated including a log burner. A very high standard of figments. High quality of upkeep throughout. Well positioned for access to a number of seaside towns also York. We have rented several cottages but this is possibly the best so far. Recommend a visit to Eden Camp, a WW2 POW Camp, now a museum, thought provoking. Give yourself time, much to read and see.

Mrs Leek

We went in early March and some days it was cold and wet, so we really appreciated the modern and very efficient wood burner in the main living area.. The only criticism l could make was that there was only one tea towel provided for the week so l bought 2 more in Filey which l brought home with me, but the owners house is adjoining and they were very helpful so would probably have provided more tea towels if l had asked.

Mrs Wallace

February 2018

This place is a little 'gem' it's spacious; well equipped; dog friendly; spotlessly clean and in a lovely quiet area.. The situation of Hawthornden is great for all the coastal towns and just a ten minute walk to beach. February half term was really quite cold but this place was always cosy after our walks. We would have booked again for July but unfortunately it's fully booked.

Mrs Oakley

November 2017

A wonderful base to explore the local fossil sites, a handy garage and pub close by.. would visit again maybe earlier in the year. the bungalow had every thing you could want for a great stay. I would have liked a hook in bathroom for dressing gowns, but really that is nit picking. well done to you both for a lovely stay.

Mrs Allen

July 2017

No bread knife or sharp knife for cutting meat or cheese.. Washing machine was dirty , would not do my washing in it. But the rest of the accommodation was clean and comfortable. Location was perfect for the beach and visiting other places.

Mr Owen

June 2017

I found hawthornden perfect for our needs and have already booked a week there in july next year as it was such good value for money.. .

Mr Page

May 2017

Very clean and comfortable property.. Mandy and James were really nice and helpful. The location was excellent and although it was near a holiday village it was very quiet. A lovely place to relax and unwind. Would highly recommend.

Mrs Wood

March 2017

We had an enjoyable break , the beach isn't to far away We went in Jan so everywhere was quiet , very close to Primrose Valley so in the summer i imagine the area would be very busy.

Mrs Wood, April 2017

A really nice place, very clean, warm and comfortable.. Spacious enclosed private patio and garden, which adjoins the owner's garden. Lovely outlook. This accommodation also borders Primrose Valley Caravan Park, but you would never know that as it cannot be seen or heard from the property, but visitors are able to access the camp easily if they wish to do so. The owner's are really welcoming and friendly. Fantastic walks along beach(10mins away) which is dog friendly. We had a wonderful week, and found Hawthornden at Primrose Valley a great place to stay. Thankyou.

Mrs Scott, September 2016

This has probably been the best holiday let we have ever stayed in. The property is immaculate, spacious and very thoughtfully decorated and contemporary. The situation was idyllic and a lovely quiet place but close by to local towns, amenities and beaches. We loved every minute of our stay at Hawthornden and would quite happily have stayed for much longer. It was very good value for money and we would most definitely recommend!

Ms Davies
