First impression of White Rose cottage was favourable, there was good downstairs space and practical laminate floor, a good sized downstairs bathroom.
Upstairs two good sized bedrooms, the towel provision poor with only one hand towel for two people in main bedroom and none in second bedroom, we had booked for two people.
Further investigation showed blood on the mattress cover on the double bed, heavy layer of dust on the T.V. boxes and a yard which was just a collection of dead plants.
Speaking to Sykes cottages, the manager we where told that they couldn't guarantee clean bedding this was up to the owner, the owner claimed he had cut his finger and didn't notice, the blood was on both ends of the mattress cover and was not on the sheet although was visible through the sheet. Our first nights sleep had to wait for the washer dryer to run it's cycle! Guisborough is a good location with good shops and easy travel to further afield, this cottage is not to be recommended neither can Sykes Cottages who manage it
